race until May Il, which Is the advertised
opening date OF the Fair Grounds" said Mr..
Lucas. Just what will happen after that
with at least two. and probably three. local
tracks ready to bid for the patronage or
the local racing public, Is a question that
remains to be seen. We expect to double
our capital stock and devote most OF the
new capital secured from the sale OF our
stock toward improving our plant y i'm

IN the Turf Congress last fall, but our re-
quest was deiied. The next time the Turf
shall make another effort TO get into the
organization"
The report that Kinloch Park would try
to break into the Turf Congress at the
next meeting IS incorrect. This gathering
has been called for the expressed purpose
of considering what disposition Is to be
made OF the large sum Of money now in
the treasury OF the organization. This
amount IS said to aggregate $4,000. Most
OF IL was secured from trainers and jockeys
in payment for their licenses II has been
suggested that this money be used to estab-
lish a home and hospital for sick and Grip
pied Jockeys ard trainers. In view of the
fact that the coming meeting of the Turf
Congress was called for the expressed pur-
pose Of considering what disposition is 10
that any other business can be considered
