Today the sport of kings was revived
at the historic Hawthorne track. with
a card of six races, the first at 2:30

George Smiths accident came as a

was the cause of keen regret. in that
everything pertaining to the Derby had
been built around his entry. especially
since he had as rivals Dodge. winner of
the Latonia classic, and Faux-Col, the
Canadian Derby victor. He was a heavy
