10000 RACING
ON SLOW TRACK
The PIG Trot Brings Out
Big Surprise in Finish of
Three Heats, Each Going
Differently = Consistent
Driving in All Events

Despite the handicap of two days
rain and a track slower by seconds
than it has been for years, an excel
lent program of harness events was
offered at the state fair track yester-
day for the entertainment of a sur
prisingly large crowd.
The harness card for the day failed
to show the listing of any track
burning events, yet there were several
good offerings. OF greatest interest in
| the harness division was the 2:16 trot
| for purse of $4,000. This race pre-
scented a rather unusual finish in
which three different entries retired
with heat to their credit.
Getting away to a good start, Char
| ley De Ryder presented a splendid
exhibition of rein work in the first
heat, when he pushed Miss Perfec-
ton home by a nose in a driving fin
ism. Billy Durfee had Esperanza ex-
tended and the bay mare was going
her best gait at the wire. She fin
ished a close second with The Ouch
ess, handled by Mcdonald, well up for
tbnd money. Mabel Van took fourth
Loe Blossom fifth and Princess Louise
sixth. Time for the heat was 2:10A
III the first heat Dick Mcmahon
handled the ribbons over the fractions
Colonel Chittenden, but could never
get the skittish gelding away. He
spoiled several starts and in the fifth
score went to the wire on his own
protection. The Colonel didn't like
the looks of the going and never got
into a trot, being turned by Mcmahon
before the quarter pole was reached.
The second heat of the race turned

was forced to be contented with a
fourth with Miss Perfection. while
fifth and sixth went to Princess

named. Colonel Chittenden, which
It fused to work for McNahon in the
previous heat, did not start, having
been distanced the first time out.

Five minutes before Oldfield came

racer, and had made arrangements
with a newspaper man to rush Pho

Earl Cooper, the famous Stutz driver

Old Pa Baker wouldn't tell how it
