Frank BOgash, Jr., and Leata J.
Favored in Detroit
Pace,
DIRECTUM |. VICTORIOUS

DETROIT, Mich, Sept. 16.-The
most important event on today's
grand circuit racing program at the
Michigan State Fair was the 2:l2
pace for a $1,000 purse. While there
were only four starters in this race,
real struggle was expected. Frank
Bogash, jr., winner of the Chamber
of Commerce stake at the recent
Blue Ribbon meeting here, was to
again meet Leata J. These two
horses have participated in more than
one memorable battle on mile tracks.
The other races were 2:14 trot, 2;07
trot and a pace for three-year-olds
As expected, Directum I. making
his debut on a Western track, romped
away with the 2:05 pace yesterday.
Pressed for a time in the first heat
by Flower Direct, the sensational
PAGER raced TO the front in the stretch
and secured a safe lead. The second
and final heat was all Directum's.
He made the last quarter mile in
29N seconds against stiff breeze,
and won the heat in 2:0SA.
Marta Bellini. the favorfe was
beaten in the 2:20 trot. The brown
mare took the first heat, and in the
second she was leading on the stretch
when she broke. Westerville Girl,
driven by Andrews, passed her, and
then took the succeeding heats.
Marta Bellini challenged the winner
in the third heat, but was beaten
thirty yards from the finish.
The 2:16 pace was rather monoton-
Gus. 1t was a procession for Del Rey
and Margot Hal, they finishing first
and second. respectively, in each of
the three heats.
Andrews twice guided Newell to
victory in the 200 trot. The gelding
took the first heat from Derby Boy,
but in the second was pushed to the
limit by Lady Grattan. The time for
this heat was 2:071s, as compared
with 2:09h for the first. The sum-
maries follow:
