PARSONS PAYS
TOP PRICE FOR
YEARLING FTLLY
Sale at Sheepshead Bay
Attracts Many
Buyers.

W. II. Karrick, acting as agent for
Schuyler J.. Parsons, paid $4,000 for a
smart looking bay FLY by McGee-
Josie L., which went as the top price at
the sale Of thoroughbred yearlings at
the old Haggin barn, Neck Road,
Sheepshead Bay, yesterday afternoon,
Fifty-seven baby racers were led into
the ring from the Mere Hill, Spindrift,
Glen Helen. Larchmont, Adelbert and
Bosque Bonita studs at the public auc-
tion conducted by the POwers-Hunter
Company, and they brought in all a
total Of $2S350. Bidding was not brisk
in the main, but there were keen
enough contests for some of the young
sters.
George Odom, who bid for Theodore
Smith, bought nine Of the lot, among
them a chestnut FLY by Ogden
Beatrice X, for 81 $50. John E. Madden
also was a liberal purchaser, and
among the yearlings he led away was
a rather smart looking chestnut colt by
Jack Akin hablis.
Few of the lot are eligible for the
Futurity. and perhaps this was one of
the reasons that the prices were not so
high. The FLY purchased by Karrick,
however, has been named for this clas-
sic. She is full sister to Horror, one
of the best three-year-old of his year.
At a private sale just before the big
one began, Max Hirsch bought brown
FLY by Helmet-Francis for $4,000.
A list of the yearlings that brought
more than $500 follows:
