TRACK WE'LL DRIED OUT
GOING AT BENNING HAS MUCH
IMPROVED.

The continued clear weather, with sun
shine and stiff breeze from the north
west, had dried out the Benning track con-
siderably In the past twenty-four hours
and the going for the thoroughbreds this
afternoon was almost first class. Today's
card was a good one, every event but one
having good-sized fields, and, coupled with
the pleasant weather, served to attract an
other large crowd nearly a thousand spec
tators coming from Baltimore. The
usual number of boOkmakers wandered
around the betting ring and lawn and were
kept busy accepting the wagers of the null
titude.
