BRILLIANT WIhO-UP
OF GRAND CIRCUIT
Championship Records and Seasons
Fastest Speed Average Features
Of Atlantic Meeting.

Atlanta, Ca, Oct. 22.--In spite of
weather conditions and the apparent
failure of original entries to show in
the final contests. the wind-up OF the
Grand circuit at Lakeside Park, UNI
der the auspices Of the Southeastern
Fair association of Atlanta, was as
brilliant as the seasons inaugural at
North Randall last July. In fact there
were many features which made the
closing of greater importance than it
has In past years and far better than
wan expected.
The speed records show that al
though two years old. the lakeside
Park track plays no second fiddle to
any trotting oval in the country with
years Of reputation as the fastest, for
tho weeks results show that 1t holds
the seasons record for the fastest
average for pacing, beating the form
err record Of columbus by full three
quarters of q second and by over two
seconds that of next best--namely, the
pacing average at Lexington.
The thirty-nine heats trotted at At
Ianta averaged a shade slower than
2.0s. yet is second only to Columbus
for the season. while the total OF sixty
three heats trotted and paced aver
aged exactly in 2.o7, with a fraction
of half a second left to be divided into
sixty-three parts. This Is only seven
teen one-hundredths of a second slow
err compared with the general average
at Columbus. where the seasons best
and fastest performed.
The total amount announced for
early and late closing purses was dis
tributed except one pacing event,
which had to be declared Off on ac-
count IT weather conditions. and an
other which had not filled. but was

citation saved money. an amount of
$3.50. as there were only three start

The only drawback to the wind -up
was the unexpectedly small feld OF

races being a shade below Ave for
