TRACK MARKS FALL
IN TROTS AND PAGES


The season Of 1912 will be remem-
bered as one I'm which 10 worlds re-
cords were lowered II also was pro-
ductive OF the largest money winning
trotter, Baden, and the largest win
ming PAGER, Joe Patchen II, that ever
graced the light harness turf
The season was peculiar in that the
horses were slow in coming 90 their
speed. Three-fourths of the season
had elapsed before the toppling of re-
cords began and then rocord-brcaking
stunts were daily occurrences.
Nineteen new records were estab-
lishod and Of this number nine were
cracked at Columbus, six at LeNing-
ton. three at Syracuse and Monroe n.
" the latter half-milc track.
Cleveland trained horses figured
prominently i'm the record smashing
as Uhlan. Evelyn W.. Lewis Forrest
and Grace lowered some Of the NEST
important marks. uhlan placed the
mile for trolters i'm the open at l5S
and repeated the same week at Lex
ington by lowering the record for
trotting teams 10 seconds. With
Lewis Forrest as trottng mate, uhlan
turned the track hitched TO wagon In
2O3 Ia Wonderful as were both
performances IL is the opinior Of Doc
Tanner. who drove both horses to
their records, that uhlan has
chance Of beating 1.5S.
Evelyn W.. who set "a record Tor
four-heat race last year and which
still stands. added two records to her
credit this season Evelyn stopped
the Fort Erie track in 203. 2O2 Ia,
which lowered the two-heat mark for
