BALL & BOWLING 3 RACING g ATHLETICS g BOXING
Big EpentS TO Close
At Benning Tonight
Many Good Entries Expected in the District
Special, Washington Cup, and
Maximum Stakes.

At midnight tonight entries will close
for some of the most important races
on the Washington Jockey Clubs stake
calendar
These are the District Special at one
mile and a half, the Washington Cup
at two miles and a quarter and the
Maximum Stakes at three miles. The
Maximum is the largest fiat race run
east of the great divide, and the most
prominent reminder we have of the old
days when distant racing found as much
favor as the sprint affairs of the present
time. Only one longer fiat race is run
in this country than the Maximum. This
is the Thornton, a four-mile event an
nually programmed for the Oakland.
Cal, track.
Long distance racing is ever popular
with the public and the Washington
Jockey Club has in the last few years
done much for racing by instituting a
series of such events. More races Of
this character are run IT Benning than
at any other track on the Eastern cir
cult Only three of the New York
tracks have race at a distance of one
mile and three-quarters or greater, and
Benning has as many races Of this
character as all the others put to-
gether.
