soon steadied down and was caught by
a bystander.
In the next heat Bragg was put up
behind Won NJ, and she came in for
third position. The last heat was a
close one, the finish being especially
good, but May Queen had the speed
and finally won out.
| Commodore Dewey Won the IBIS class.
In the first heat ne made bad break

around, and when he went by the

7.rear. On the back stretch he gathered
himself together and circled the track
like bullet. Down the home stretch
he sped passing all but the leaders and
finishing close third. Old timers said
they never saw such a burst of speed
on the track
| In the next three heats the horse had
the GOODNESS Of the man he was namei
for and like that individual he made
few breaks. The last heat he did go
off his feet a little but although he was
pulled down almost to a walk It did not
trouble him in the least and he finished
in the lead.

heat, came in for second money, which
pleased the crowd Immensely, for Put

he is swept out Of sight, for time at
least, by the shifting scenes of the war
