ODDS-ON FAvORITE BEATEN
Schreiber's Gresham Was Not Good
Enough TO Land TtvO-yeRF-OId
Leads from Raise of Barrier to the
Wire-Accident Narrowly Averted.

New Orleans, Feb. 14-With a card
OF races given over to the poorer field
of animals. there was strictly no class
represented in the races at City Park
this afternoon. A seven-furlong sell
ing affair for four ear-olds that had
not won since last September was
split three ways. Barring a purse
event for two-year-olds and the short
course steeplechase. all the events We're
under selling conditions.
One Of the features of the day was
the defeat of Schreibcr's Gresham,
which was backed to odds-on at the
post time in the -year-old event.
The race was looked upon as a gift TO
the Schneider youngstcT. Nicol had
the mount. bat the colt was not good
enough to beat Dew of Dawn, who was
under the whip from the time the bar
rier was released until the finish.
Walker, who rode the winner, hooked
up with Nicol in the stretch. and but
for NicOTs good horsemanship the win
ner would have had couple of lengths
TO spare at the finish.
