Jason MEDIUM" AND OWNER EXPELLED

mile in about 220, was the central
figure in the unpleasant occurrence.
Billy was driven by Grant Steffey of
Barberton and owned by Frank Wide
man of Seville, o. The horse certainly
did not go a capable mile, and the
judges removed Stetfey at the start of
the second heat, intended to put PEN
mock of Cleveland in his stead. Neither
Steffey nor Wideman would agree to
this, and the horse was taken to the
stables despite the judges wishes.
Wideman and Steffey were fined 500
for insubordination. This was paid
under protest. Steffey, however, was
allowed to drive the horse for the rest
of the race, providing the second heat
was run well.
Money then went in the direction of
Billy j., and he was backed heavily on
the result The second heat was Lady
Elects, nevertheless, who won in a
driving finish from Billy j. The Lady
was not headed during the heat. Billy
J. got busy on the last quarter, where
he passed Cora Mac and appeared to
be stepping in winning fashion.
The black gelding quit in the stretch
as her part of the third heat. He was
beaten for second place by the Walters
entry, Cora Mac. AS in the former
heats, Lady Elect won, holding the
lead continually.
O.: :13 pace; purse $400.

a Pittsburg millionaire, owns the geld

The only extra heat race of the day
occurred in the last race of the meet
ing, the 2:30 pace. Two of the four
heats were battles between Allanwood
and Jess Frazer, the former being an
even money favorite. Allanwood would
have won the first heat had Driver
Purcell not held the animal back. For
this he was fined $25 and all bets de-
clared off.
At the start of the second heat Driv-
er Kennedy protested Allanwood. The
judges satisfied themselves on rightful
Identification without much trouble.
WARM RACING.
The second heat saw the warmest
racing Of the afternoon, as far as
knowing that the drivers had burned
bridges behind them. Besides Allan
wood and Jesse Frazer being contend
ers, Minnie Slumber, Pennock's entry
from Cleveland, was hitting no minor
clip. The three horses as they turned
into the stretch were closely punched,
with Allanwood leading. Frazer broke,
which caused her sulky to swerve into
that of the Slumber mare, and before
| they became untangled Allanwood had
the race, Tasso had passed Minner
| Slumber, who finished last, and Jess
Frazer finished third. Minnie Slumber
was given fourth place and Jess Frazer
last by the judges
Although the finish was close for the
third heat, Allanwood copped it. Min
ME Slumber finished second, winning
narrowly from the Tasso horse. AL
| lanwood ended it all in the fourth
heat, having no serious competition.
