NEW WORLDS RECORDS
ARE ESTABLISHED

The two weeks meeting al Lex
ington last week closed the Grand
Circuit light harness season of 1913.
There were many drawbacks dur
ing the season, but liberal purses,
plenty of horses and good manage
ment on the part of the associations
helped TO make the year a success
ful one. Rain handicapped some OF
the meetings, including the final one
at Lexington.
AS usual the season was featured
by several record-breaking perform
ances, although not as many new
marks were made this year as in
1912, which was one of the most SEN
sational in the history of light har-
ness sport. Uhlan. 1.5S the worlds
champion trOtter. furnished the most
sensational features during the last
circuit season. The great trotter
beat two minutes several times,
stepping in 1859 1-2 on his first time
out at Cleveland. He also lowered
the Grand Rapids track record from
2.06 1-2 TO 1.59 3-4. and the Mich
igan State record from 2.03 3-4 to
the same mark. Uhlan placed the
State record at 1.59 "a at Hamlin,
Mimi. on September S. and at Gales
burg, ILL.,, on September 20, lowered
the State record of 2.O3 "a. made
by Alix 10 years ago, to 200 "a. As
crowning effort Uhlan created a
new worlds record of 1.54 IL. hook
ed with a running mate. at Lexing-
ton, lowering old record of 2.03 1-2
made 20 years ago by Ayers p. This
was Uhlan's last appearance an the
trotting turf. The son of Bingen
will be given a complete rest and
will then join the stable of fast rec
ord saddle horses Of his owner. c. X.

The worlds pacii.g record was not
endangered during the season. although
