RACING TALENT
GETS CHANCE
THIS YEAR

The local racing situation Is now
getting down to a basis where the
talent will get run for it's money.
The open ring will see six or eight
books cutting in, and there will be
the consequential boosting of
prices. The old syndicate books
may keep a few bookmakers from
going broke, but it keeps the out
slider up against Ia odds until he
hasn't any show to even grow in

70 DOUBLE.TRACK
IN MONTANA

According to a Missoula report
the Northern Pacific railroad will
be double-tracled from that city to
Garrison, and possibly west from
Missoula. This means a double
track through He'll Gate canyon.
The supposition is that the move
is made to absorb all the right of
way available through the canyon
in order to shut out the Milwaukee.
Northern Pacific officials deny any
such intention. They claim that
the new work is designed to elm
mate numerous curves on that part
of the system.
