ANOTHER
MEET.
St. Louis Athletes
to Struggle Next
Week.
VlRGlE A. AND
AGGRAVATlON
Both in First-CIass Condition for
Next Saturdays Big
Match.

Next Saturday afternoon will be de-
cided the much-talked-of race between
Tom Hollinger's Aggravation and
seven ighths of a mile, for $3.50 side
The flag will fall at 3 o'clock.
Both mares are doing as well as could
be wished in their training and the race
should be q good one from start to
finish. Virgie A. is said to have worked
six furlongs in 1:19 with her boy sitting
up straight on her. Aggravation's best
work so far has been seven furlongs in
1876, in which she finished all out. The
last six furlongs was caught in 1920
and the last quarter in :29A. Nichols
will ride the black mare, while Harry
Jones will in all probability bestride
IAggravation.
Virgie A. is being conditioned by w.
r. Westwood, an artilleryman, who has
had considerable experience at the
game. She is looking better than at
any time since her arrival in Hawaii.
lAggravation is being trained as usual
by "Old Sport" Callan, who has his
charge in excellent fettle.
1t was stated yesterday that Messrs.
Hancock, Moore and Nichols were each
interested in the winnings if any, to
the amount of a third each. This should
insure the syndicate getting q run for
their money.
Virgie A. will be the first house start
ed by the Moore-Hancock stable. Their
colors are royal purple, white sash and
white cap. The stable will shortly re-
ceive additions and is likely to b. heard
from at the big meetings.
Gus Schumann has sold Bly,, by Ra-
icine-Amelia H. to go to Kauai, where
he will be raced.
The crew of single rnen which won
the boat iace rowed last week aggre-
gated 6S5 pounds, or an average of III
pounds per man. 1t was probably the
heaviest boat" that has ever raced III
Hawaiian waters.
The excellent portrait of Lon hgnew,
the pugilist, which appeared in last
Mondays Advertiser was reproduced
from a photograph specially taken by
Davey.
