SPECIAL DISPATCH To The CALL
SEATTLE, Sept 4-Barney Oldheld,
Gary & Dunlap's extremely useful
year old, scored his eighth victory at
The Meadows meeting when be took
the measure of Pedro and other fair
performers IN the only race with any
pretension TO class on tOdays card.
Pedro, on the strength OF a series OF
clever races in the best company here,
ruled q hot favorite and was beaten
strictly on his merits, having no eA-
cuse beyond the fact that he had as a
pilot Jockey Scoville, whose SADDLE
form leaves much to be desired. Bar
ney- Oldheld probably is a better horse
than he has been generally belleFeo
TO be.
posed Of selling platers of the cheapest
sort and the racing that they provided
was uneventful and unlnterestlng. Rose
Cherry and Salable scored as tdVorlteS.
Fast workouts were responsible for
4 plunge that made Roy 7 first choice
IN the Juvenile race. The colts chances
were ruined when he ran out on the
turn, as in previous sprints. Jockey
Archibald, who was making his reap
pearancein the saddle after a long sus-
pension. created a stir by winning the
race with Minalto, against which as
high as 80 10 1 had been laid
Dick DWyer's starting was not up to
the high standard he has maintained
throughout the meeting.
Jockey Wilson was fined and reprl-
manded for having cut across the held
at the start with FL Chihuahua in the
