WOODLAND, Aug Is.-It took FIVE
heats 10 decide the winner in The second
race FOR 2.2I trotters today. which was
the only race Of the card that afforded
excitement Ollie B. which scored the
first two heats. came on again and won
the fifth trial
AS usual Kid Wilkes, owned by II.
T. Armstrong, proprietor of the Pleas
anton track. easily defeated the field
ia the opening race, a 2:20 class trot.
Wilkes outclessed his field. and the
only heat that was in doubt was the
thir6 when Helman. who drove the
winner, was nearly caught asleep and
almost beaten by Sophia Dillon. Hell
man figured he had the race in hand
100 Yards from the wire and he pulled
Up Kid Wilkes. J. Groom, who held
Tie reins over Sophia Dillon, took ad-
vantage OF q chance 10 sneak home and
pulled into the rail and would have won
In two more jumps.
There was considerable criticism of
the time or 2.0si4, which the timers
hung out in the second heat which
Wilkes won Spectators who held
watches and one Of the judges caught
~ likes IN better than 2:es14. The
ners. J. Cufcello, Sam Hoy and 6.
zimmerman, were called into the stand.
Anything better than the time in
which he stepped the second heat
meant that KID Wilkes would have
graduated into faster class than 2:99
next season.
Ida MIerton, which had been per-
forming creditably AT tracks on the
1 circuit appeared TO have a rosy chance
'Co take the purse in the 2:2l trot, but
the best she could 10 was to land in
70 in, he
last heat, and after leading around to
the last turn relincuished the heat to
Easter and Ollie B. which fought il
out for first place Ollie b. driven by
j. Twohig. captured the first and second
heats hsndiy, and then Easter came
on and surprised all By taking the third
trial TIE event was further delayed
when the judges caught W. :. Maben' s
Ida MilIerton in the fourth heat, win

= and Easter. The finish was so close
that many IN the stand could not sepa-
rate the three horses

strai light heats. Judge was second. The
