righted. San Telmo had her beaten
but she tried to catch him in the home
stretch and went to another long break
that cost her second position.
San Telmo won the third heat with
out an effort as Alley Ella was all in
and was beaten for first place by five
lengths in 2:21 IL. The race was be-
tween Emma c. and Matthew. for third
place and Emma got there by length.
The fourth heat was repetition of
the third, San Telmo winning easily
from Alley Ella while Emma c. beat
Matte M. for third money.
THE 2:2S PACE
Billy Hamilton, the well-known base
ball player, of Clinton, made a great
killing in the 1928 pace with his clever
four-year-old PAGER Henry liter, with
Allie Trout In the sulky. He bought
the horse Oct from Joe Middleby of
Medford and yesterday was his first
start with the animal that had all the
other seven horses beaten to a stand
still. The horse had a mark Of 2:20A
before yesterday, but he lowered it to
2:191a in the second mile of the race.
William P, big bay gelding, by AL
cander with Ed. Gillies in the sulky
was thought to be the good thing, but
he proved to be bad counterfeit and
did not get look in on the money
The best he could do was to get third
place in the last heat Henry Titei
had everything his own way and was
in danger at no stage of the three
miles, reeling off a victory in straight
heats.
The big field was sent off on the
third attempt with Earl F. leading the
way, but Roger paced into first posi-
ton on the turn and Allie Trout cut
in with Henry liter from seventh 70
second place. These two made the race
to the upper turn with the favorite
out of it away back in the ruck. Com
ing around the bend Trout drove
Henry litter into the lead and then 1t
was all over, as he opened a lead Of
four lengths and finished the mile at a
jog two lengths ahead of Hale B., in
2:20K.
Henry litter won the second heat as
easily as he did the first, while the
favorite was no figure in the race.
litter was never headed, pacing a level
mile in 2:191A and finishing at a jog
with three lengths to spare from Ex-
press Ready Boy was in second place
to the half, when Express came up and
beat him on the last turn.
Gillies made a great try for the third
heat, but his horse did not Save the
speed, and Henry liter put an end to
it all by finishing a strong and easy
winner in 2:20A. At the word Gillies
cut in from the outside with William
P. and took third place at Express's
sulky and the three leaders came down
for the half with only length sep
arating them. On the back stretAh
Trout urged Henry litter a bit and it
was all over. He left the others easily
and Trout looked over his. shoulder to
see the race between Express and the
favorite for second place Express win
ming and thus putting William P. out
side the money line.
THE FREE-FOR-ALL PACE
The free-for-all pace was a big dis
appointment, as it was thought the
track record would surely go undE.
The strong wind, however, held back
the fast PAGERS and the best time made
was 2:13% Before the race was start
ed Chehalis was picked to win, as Con-
nor had only reached the track few
hours before he came down for the
work after a long ride from Hagers-
town Md. But Conner is made of the
stuff that wins money for his hackers.
and he did it yesterday. His long ride
made him a bit nervous for the first
mile. but he showed great speed and
the men who had picked Chehalis to
win tumbled over themselves to get on
the Conner side after the first heat,
although Chehalis won 1t.
Conner was too unsteady to do him
self Justice in the first heat, although
he gave Chehalis a game race and fin
ished at the winners head He made
his first skip on the lower turn and
while he was in the air Roam Wilkes
went into second place a length be-
hind the favorite who was moving
smoothly. Conner tried to regain his
place on the back stretch the second
time around but went up again. He
righted on the upper turn and came
through the home stretch like a whirl-
wind that landed him at Chehalis'
head at the wire in 2:13%, a slow heat
for such speedy horses.
Connor's great speed when he was
right in the first heat made him a
strong favorite in the second but his
hackers wavered when he broke on the
turn and fell back TO last place He
paced along here to the stretch on the
second half and then Kenwood urged
him and he shot to the front like an
arrow from a bow. going by Chehalis
and Roam Wilkes as If they were tied
to the rail- Then it was all over. He
came around the bend without waver
and finished under a pull in 2:14-
Conner moved, a peg nearer FIRST
money in the third heat in which he
was never headed, circling the track
twice in 2:16 with Chehalis no nearer
than a length the first time around.
Connor put It all over the other two
in the fourth mile in 2:14A. Chehalis
tried to do him in the first half but had
to give it up and then Roam Wilkes
came up but the big fellow had
trouble in negotiating the turns and
