Season of 1916 Probably
Most Successful in
History OF Court
MURPHY IS THE
CHAMPION DRIVER

The trotting season Of 1916 prob
ably was the most successful in the
entire history Of the sport of kings.
So many records were established
that it would take an adding machine
TO total all of them One after an
other the old marks of years standing
were wiped out and new ores posted
And many Of those endured for only a
week or so, when they. too, were ef-
faced by some newer burst Of speed
by one or another Of the many re-
markable horses that we're campaign
ed in 1916.
And from out Of the dust of many
thrilling brushes emerges Tommy
Murphy. of Poughkeepsie, to wear
again the crown that goes to the
champion reinsman. The great New
York State pilot of trotters and PAGERS
won SS3,577 during the season. which
topped the second-place Walter
