GOOD RACES SURE
FOR WINTER MEET
OPPOSITION TO B00KMAKING
NOT ANTICIPATED
MANY RESERVATIONS MADE
All the Old Favorites Will Return to
Ascot Park and Some New
Ones Are Expected.
The Stakes

The winter race meet at Ascot park
will open November 80. Thanksgiving
day. This much has been definitely
determined by the Los Angeles Jockey
club, although the exact date for clos
ing the meet has not been set. 1t is
highly probable, however, that it will
continue ninety days, no more, no less.
While the four months racing last
year was highly successful from GER
tain points of view, the opposition to
Ascot park developed more during the
last month than in all the three months
previous and the management has
about concluded that ninety days rae
ing will be sufficient for all purposes.
Manager Jim Brooks and other men,
bers of the Jockey club do not anti
cipate pronounced opposition to the
book making privileges, such as stirred
the city last season, and efforts in this
direction would be largely futile, any
how, as there Is no session of the legis-
lature before which the matter could
be taken, and the county supervisors
appear to be friendly. Such, at least
is the impression prevailing at Ascot
park headquarters.
But whether or not Ascot park will
find itself in hot water again this sea-
son. good racing is assured, for many
