Until Nov. IA More Horses
Are Coming.

After a consultation with the horse own
ers now located at the Fair Grounds.
Manager Murray last night announced
that the present meeting would be ex-
tended until Nov. II. This Will give about
two weeks more racing than at first
planned. This is on account of the ex-
cellent weather conditions now prevail
ing in this state. During the first two
weeks racing, snow and rain greatly in
terfered with the game. Now that the
weather has improved Manager Murray is
convinced the public want the sport and
that the game Will stand for two weeks
more.

ger Murray last night wired to d number
of horsemen who have wanted to ship to

High Has Been Ar
ranged.

The members Of the football team of the
Salt Lake High school are beginning to
get down to hard work again, after their
victory in Ogden and after their enthusi-
astic welcoming they received at home.

scribes for stiffness and soreness.
The training for the remainder of the
week will consist mostly of signal prac-
tice and long runs for wind and endur-
ance. No scrimmage will constitute the
work as no chances on injury can be
taken.
Another game has been arranged with
the Granite High school. one where the
real merit and supremacy can be judged
from the outcome. The local fans will re-
member that the last game between these
two schools took place in a sea of mud
and water.
The next game Will be played on Cum

one OF the best days racing of the meet
ing Yesterday. There was harness race
Tor the SAL Lake contingent of race
goers who like the PAGERS and trotters
above all others This was followed by
1--we runs, in which some hair-raising fin
lshes were seen. In one of the races it
looked as if some wise money had been
pidced TO put deal through but the
Judges got hep" and blocked the game.

acted badly al the post and finally backed
up and kicked a hole through the fence
III n, uolhg so she broke her leg and was
destroyed after the races.
rue firth race saw one of the greatest
races since the opening of the meeting
ana also saw the state record for a mile
lowered from "A TO l:4224. Frank Lub-
DOCK was the holder of the record and
was entered for the race YESTERDAY He
was the natural favOrite and on form
should have been sure winner. Soon
dIter the betting opened il was noticed
mat a Dig bunch of money was going in
on sam Barber to win. In fact he was
backed off the boards while there was
nothing doing on Lubbock Manager
Murray learned of this and at once told
Presiding Judge Blum what was going
ON. Blum ordered another Jockey nut on
Lubbock, and his owner Irwin refused
TO allow the jOckies changed In the
meantime the wise money saw their game
blocked and began to play Lubbock 10
cover up their former bets on Barber.
Manager Murray threatened to rule the
irwin stable off the track and finally
consented TO allow Twins jockey to ride
the race
McBeth was the rider and although he.
did not make good ride he looked as if
ne were trying to win. and came under
the wire beaten by nose by MaXetta in
one OF the hardest drives of the meeting
After the races Irwin was called before
the board and apologized for not allow
ing the judges to change Jockeys The
fact that the race was so far under the
record shows that Lubbock was sent at
top speed after the interview with the
Judges The manner in which the race
turned out showed that the action taken
by the judges dumped the wise money.
Which was up first on Sam Barber and
later on Lubbock.
Another feature of the races was the
riding of NJ. Nelson. who was up five
times yesterday. winning four firsts and
one third place
Lizzie Bigstaff proved her worth in the
single harness race of the day by taking
the ID pace and trot in two straight
heats. She was played as a faVorite and
was never in danger of losing Maud B
won second in straight heats and Brownie
and DR.. Able split the third place The
