Some thinkers on the subject even go

Piles of Advantages to Be En-

The first season of racing at Santa
Anita park is nearly at an end, and
one thing stands out to make it more
distinctly successful than any meet
ever held in the west. This is the fact
| that thoroughbreds trained here and
given their workouts over the lightning
| fast Arcadia course have gone all over
the country and won from horses which
We're considered above their class.
| Meelicks victory In the Crescent City
derby yesterday is the most noted eX-
ample of this. The Hildreth crack was
brought to the local course from Oak
land as soon as his owner had deter
mined that Santa Anita was without
peer as a training ground, and Meelfck
was slowly worked into shape to do his
best.
After a race or two down here he was
sent to Oakland, and there the Cali
fornia derby, the first 3-year-old classic
of the season, was won by him in easy
fashion. He was sent back to Arcadia,
and the Los Angeles derby was next in.

Hildreth sent him clear to New Orleans

are in first-class shape. and If Mont

hold the honor of Santa Anita in the
east it will be a sad disappointment to
those who expect to make some big
bets on them when they go to the post.
In addition to Meelick's great victory
in New Orleans, Big Bow trained here
for long distance events, won the
Thornton stakes at four miles yester-

NEW YORK, March 14.-Following
the split between the Automobile Club
of America, the premier motor organ
ization on this continent, and the
American Automobile association.
which occurred through the withdrawal
of the automobile club from the New
York State Automobile association, af-
filiated with the A. A. A, at the states
organization meeting in Buffalo on
Thursday, formal announcement of the
withdrawal was made from the auto
mobile clubs office here yesterday.
Though w. II. Hotchkiss of Buffalo.
president Of the A. A. A., gave out a
statement yesterday in which he said
the national organization welcomed the
New York clubs withdrawal, auto
mobilists who are in touch with the
situation expect the effect to be far
reaching, in so far as legislative, tour
ing and racing affairs are concerned.
The immediate effect. of the with
drawal will be the disruption of the
various boards of the A. A. A, partic-
ularly the retiring board. of which JEFF
ferson de Mont Thompson, the chair
man, W. K. Vanderbilt, jr., David
Hennen Morris and S. NJ. Butler are
members, by virtue of membership in
the automobile club. Should any of
these men desire to be reappointed to
the racing board it will be necessary
for them to enroll as individual MEM
bers of the association.
A fight for supremacy in legislative,
racing and touring fields is expected.
The Automobile Club of America is
distinctively a New York city organiza-
ton, it's membership however, includ-
ing many of the country's most prom
inent motorists.
