TYSON TROTTER
HAS WON S17,70O
Harry ]. S. Performs Best
in 1916, Being Second TO
Mabel Trask in EOS IA
THIS MAY BE
HIS LAST YEAR

When, after a racing career cover
ing six campaigns, horse has figured
in the money division on fifty-hve oe-
casions out OF a total Of afty-eight
starts. he may we'll be called consis-
tent. Such is the record Of Harry j.
s., handsome black stallion, by Ad-
miral Dewey, owned by the stoeckle
Stable. and campaigned by Herman
Tyson. premier driver Of the Eastern
half-mile tracks.
Tyson, as well as his star perform
er, has made for himself a remarkable
record, having won approximately 225
races since the time when his able
fsther, Aaron Tyson, lifted him into
the sulky.
Harry ] S. is rated as The cham
piOn present-day race-winning trot-
ter over the half mile tracks, and a
resume Of his racing career shows
that he deserves his title.
In one OF the most memorable bat
ties ever rac6d on the Grand Circuit,
the little Delaware trotter moved
down a high-class field Of ten at Lex
ington, KY. on October 6, 1914, and
in order to accomplish this he was
forced to set a new record for seven
heat race. The following year he es-
tablished a new high-wheel sulky rec
ord over the Goshen IN. Y.) course
negotiating a mile In 2 .15 fiat. At the
same place that August he was second
to Nathan AxW orthy, which set
worlds record for three heats.
The little black. however, was
never better during his career than
in the season of 1916. Il was during
that year that he was second to the
great Mabel Trask, at Columbus
Ohio, in EOS Ia That his age IS
not hanging heavily upon him was
demonstrated last week at Freehold
n. j., when he won FIVE heat race
defeating a classy field Of FIVE. and
trotting the second heat in 2 II IA.
Much OF the success Of the horse Il
due 10 the efforts OF his driver, FOL
Tyson is known not only as a won.
derful driver and trainer. but a hard
and willing worker. He did much o
his early driving on the Delaware
Maryland-Virginia Fair Circuit, and /
Is no uncommon occurrence for hin
TO win all the races on a days card
The natives Of the towns at whicl
the race-meets we're held looked upol
him as a wizard.
A visitor at his training quarters a
Newark. tells that Tyson came 70 III
track at 5 o'clock i'm the morning, an
until IN the afternoon had not bee
once of the track An attendan
would have a horse ready for him a
soon as he finished working one. an
that continued practically all day.
Tyson's best season was that q
1915. when out OF "a starts over bot
mile and half-mile tracks he was Z
times in the money. While there
no record OF his total winnings, wit
the one horse, Harry J. s., he ha
won $1,000.
II is rumored that this will be IN
asst campaign for Harry j. s., an
q deserves the rest which will b
attendant upon his retirement frol
he trotting turf However, as III
horse seems to be as good as eve
for racing purposes, II may be th'
this is but a rumor. and the patron
OF the Eastern tracks may have th
pleasure OF seeing this favorite pc
form for still another season.

JOie Ray Has Great Chance
10 Sci TWo-Mie Record

he does his best running after the
first mile
The fastest three trials at the two
mile distance are Shrubs. Rays and
Bill Langs record OF 9.1l - made IN
England o. years ago.
Fractional time for the mile ana
quarters after the FIRST mile show
that Ray Travelled his last mile as fast
as his first and several seconds raster
than either of the other great Two
milers.
Ray ran his first mile In 4.S0 and
his second I'm 4:36 20.
Shrubb ran his first mile IN 4;2'
and his second in 4:42 %.
Lang's first mile was negotiated IN
.4:27; his second in 4;44 IL.
This is evidence that Ray was
stronger al the finish than either Of
the others and may presage a brand
new record for the distance.

Joie Ray. Americas cracI distance
runner, will be entered in the A. A.
u games at ST. Louis this summer
but just what event he viii enter Ray
has not yet decided on.
IL Is not likely he VIII enter the
mile event for his failure at New \ ork
recently TO come within striking dis
lance OF the world record probably
will keep him out Of that.
Should Ray decide TO enter the
two-mile event his performance will
be watched with much interest as Ray
probably will make every effort TO
beat the present record Of 9:O9 3-5
made in 1904 by Al Shrubb.
Rays best effort at the two-mile
