No announcement was made of a future

The schedules for the spring meet
ings in Virginia and Maryland have been
arranged in a manner that would still
afford New York ample racing time in the
summer months. and II is known that
several of the directors are in favor of a
resumption of the sport. Mr.. Belmont. as

announcement of plans for the season are
excellent ones. There is still ample time.
