promising warfare.

UHLAN, GREATEST TROT-
TER OF ALL TIME, SAYS
GEERS.

"Uhlan is the greatest trotter
Of all time" said Ed Geers. HE
can trot quarter In thirty sec
onds easier than any horse !
ever saw" In considering the
merit of trotting horses Lou
Dillon's wind shield record Of
:5S1a made at Memphis in 1905
must be eliminated.
Uhlan's 1:5S% without the
wind shield is the greatest per-
formance in the history of the
trotting turf.
Horsemen are giving Trainer
Doc Tanner a lot of credit for
the Improvement in the black
son of Bingen's speed. Tanner
took the gelding last fall.
In the case of Uhlan he fig
ured that with the length of toe
and the foot angle that horse
had and the weight he was car
rying there was q distinct hand
leap to the gelding's showing
his best speed. 1t was Tanners
belief that a horse capable of
taking a record Of 2:021a, which
Uhlan did last season, rugged
as was Uhlan, would go faster
and last longer at the clip If
shod, balanced and pedicured as
Tanner thought he should be.

pay much more for him than the draft

Karger failed to show the next year,
was traded TO Cincinnati and then
turned loose TO q minor league club.
He is now with the Boston Americans
and has done very well, but is nothing
like the pitcher he was a few years

Not so many years ago Elmer Flick,
