SAN BERNARDINO, Nov. 1.-THE
special match race between the two
great stations Hazel Patch of Ken
tucky and Zolock OF this city resulted
today In n complete victory for the
eastern horse, he making II three
straight heats. The time made i'm to-
days heats and loss of the race was
& keen disappointment to the crowd
as to little Violet Davis daughter of
Zolocks owner, who wept bitterly
when the race was lost
In the second heat today wonderful
burst of speed was shown by the stall
lions, the first half being covered in
1:00h, pace that could not be kept
up In the last half.
In this heat Zolock hugged Patch
closely every foot around the course.
but could not rally sufficient speed at
the finish to get under the wire first.
The third heat was still more disap-
pointing Zolock seeming to be unable
to overcome the lead of length
Patch gained almost from the outset.
Zolock was said by Driver Delaney to
lie out of condition, his feet being in a
bleeding condition. A heavy north wind
also conspired to keep down the rec
ords. j. w. Flack drove Hazel Patch.
The track was fast today and some
fine sport was seen in the 2:09 trotting
and pacing events. In the former
John Caldwell was the winner and
showed himself to be a wonderful
horse, pulling victory out of defeat in
three straight heats by a burst of
speed at the finish. Morone, also in
this race, in the third heat made q
nose and nose finish with John Cald-
well, having pulled out to that posi-
tiOn from q bad fourth
The 200 pacing was also magnifi-
cent race the time being better than
the special match race. Dedaion pulled
out three straight heats, though they
were hard earned, against a large field
of fast ones.
The 2:2O trotting event finished from
yesterday showed the track to be sew
eral seconds faster than yesterday in
spite of the heavy wind. The attend
ance today was considerably less than
yesterday. Altogether the opening
meet of the Southern California circuit
has been a great success.
