Especial Dispatch 10 The Call


/ Los ANGELES, Feb. 17.-Jack Atkin
carried the excessive impost of lac
pounds, and ronlped away with the
Santa Monica handicap. the feature
event at santa Anita today, going the
six furlongs in I'll 1-5. He went away
from the post on the run and always
had the race well in hand, but, char
acteristicaIly, tried to loaf through the
stretch. Powers drew his whip, but a
few strokes woke up the big boy and
he bounded away from his field and
won by two lengths from Colloquy
and Magazine.
Powers rode three of the seven win
ners today, while Shilling. his rival,
scored only once Powers rode Ami
mus to victory in the long race, and it
was his finish that made him beat Nor
bitt and Red Gauntlet in a drive
with the former. Harrigan also
increased Powers percentage when he
annexed the sixth race from Desirious
and Julia Powell, both of which We're
heavily played to beat Harrigan. The
victory of Harrigan, despite his short
odds, was so popular that even the
band played Harrigan.
Hannibal Bey was well intended in
sharpshooters, despite his price, but
after leaSing into the stretch, he blew
up and finished fourth. Conductor
jack MacManus put over another good
one when Rocky O'Brien won the

marked to- friend yesterday that he
did not know how he was going to
overlookSit. Graham realizes what "a
tower of strength the big fellow would
be to his club and he will leave no
stone unturned to get him to play
with Sacramento.
Graham is not without opposition, for
Cy Moreing of the State league is also
on Joe's trail, and it is race between
them
from accepting Graham's offer is that
he is now in business and his family de-
sire him to continue in the commercial
world.
