Macomber will race q string Of thor

early peace have enabled him to change
his plans for next season. as Il re-
leases him from the war work which
ne volunteered to do this year and
which he had planned to follow up
next year if the war continued.
II received word from Mr.. Macomber
to-day not to sell any more horses"
said W. B. Jennings. "He told me in
the message that the change in the
situation Of the war had caused him
to change his plans and that he would
continue to race his horses next year.
This IS certainly good news. not only
to me. but TO the rank and file of
racegoers, because know that Mr..
Macomber's colors are popular
I'm certainly sorry that l sold any
Of Mr.. Macomber's horses, now that

not only just got up in time to nose
out Jock Scot the pacemaker, out to
equal the track record of l:11 As.
Flags closed up big gap in the run
through the stretch.
Motor Cop, the favorite, vas caught in
pocket at the start and was unable
TO wiggle clear during any part of the
race. Ground Swell, the other winner
for the stable, practically madc all the
running and won the race for two-year-
olds at a mile.
The Walden Stakes, the only two
year-old stake feature at mile, and
the IemOunt race Tor stations liable
to be bought by the United States gov
ernment, are the big events of the card
at Pimlico tomorrow. Billy Kelly car
ries 1870 pounds and comedies weight

this and win. then, indeed, will he be
champion.
The remount race is at the request
of the remount division of the War
Department. The Maryland Jockey
Club has not only made the value Of
the race $4,000, out has offered to pur-
chase any one Or all of che nine stall
