APPEAL FOR RACING AT
BOWIE MADE TO COURT
Three Judges on Bench When AppH-
cation Of Fair Association
Is Presented.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
UPPER MARLBORO, october 2s.-A
full bench, Judges Briscoe, Beall and
Camalier, is hearing today the applica-
ton Of the Southern Maryland Agrfcui-
tural Fair Association for permit Tor
fifteen days horse racing at Bowie
Prince Georges county. Under the law
the association is required to submit
petition signed by twenty five or more
legally qualified voters in the election
district where the race course is locat-
ed. The petition filed was objected to
on the ground that one of the twenty
Ave signers was not qualified voter.
Attorney Shirley Carter of Baltimore
maintained that the applicants had a
right to amend the petition. which had
been done by the addition Of five legal
voters.
A further objection was made to the
petition that the request read fifteen
days. when the association under any
condition was entitled to but thirteen
days. Attorney Carter maintained that
because the lawyer who drew the petit
ton asked for more than he was en-
titled to it did not necessarily vitiate
the petition. The impression prevails
that the court will deny the request. in
which event an appeal will be taken,
and pending a decision upon this APP
peal, which cannot be rendered until
next April. the race meeting at Bowie
will open as per schedule, November 13.
continuing until after Thanksgiving
day.

Republican Votes Sought.

Following the rightabout face of
both party conventions last month
things began to hum in Baltimore city.
The mayor and other city officials took
positions practically appealing for the
republican vote: the majority of the
democratic local legislative candidates
repudiated part of their party plat
form and hosts of representative men.
who always vote the democratic ticket,
at least in local and state elections. ap-
pealed for the whole republican slate.
For week after the conventions
nine out of every ten people one
might casually meet in Baltimore were
eager to predict that the q. o. P. would
sweep the city and sufficient counties
to put over their whole state ticket
and obtain control of the assembly and
the board of public works.
Then spirit of lethargy descended
upon the city. Now. though a solid
press is daily appealing for support Of
the republican ticket. no man will pre-
dict the outcome. This is largely due
to the fact that the liberty loan cam
paign obscured the political situation
and even partially eclipsed annexation
