Georgetown Too Clever
for OnOndago
Wins Second Series of Grand
National at IngIeside
Coursing Park

+ Jerry OShea's royalty bred grey
hound Georgetown won a popular vic
tory at Ingleside coursing park yester-
day when he took the measure of
George Sharman's fleet Onondago In
the second series of races for the Grand
National stake. The result was some
what similar to that of last week. when
Walla Walla beat Carmel, as II took
four races to decide which was the
better dog. The first two courses went
to Georgetown. Then Onondago won
the third. In the fourth the race was
close, but Georgetown proved to be
the stronger.
1t was speed against cleverness, and
cleverness triumphed. Onondago showed
clearly that he was faster than George
town town in the running to the game, but
white and brindle son of Pocatelli
showed great dash. once he got placed
on the game, and he was all over Shar-
mans dog when it came to working.
In the only course which Onondago
had to his credit it was a. close finish
and Onondago won by point.
Betting was unusually brisk on the
Onondago for the first and sent him
to the slips to 10 choice. After
that Georgetown was made the choice,
David Byrnes, the veteran leashman,
has handy performer in Curry, which
repeated his success of last week by
carrying OIL InS nOnOIS IN The 1idSS
stake. Bon Ami. which won second
place, showed no speed in a bye in the
first round, but awoke in the succeed
ing races. Another greyhound whose
running was inconsistent was Roman
Money, which did a fiipfiop by going out
to Myrtle in the first round. The bet
ting indicated the result
A j. Harrington and his Napa friends
made nice clean up when the Napa
dog, Maud O'Connor, outran a big field
in the Open stake.
