JOCKEY STACEY
HAS BAD SPILL
Doctor D. Fell Going Over
Hurdle, Throwing
His Rider.

Havre de Grace. Nd. April 22.-
Today was one of misfortune for
the riders and disaster for the form
players at Havre de Grace. An ugly
spill occurred at the jump just op-
posite the grandstand in the steeple-
chase. resulting in F. Stacey. a we'll
known cross-country rider. being
hustled to the hospital. But luckily
he probably escaped with only a
shaking up.
Stacey was aboard Doctor d.
owned by Col. Whiting, and was
racing along in a contending posi-
tion, when the accident happened.
The horse made a bad landing after
going over the obstacle. fell and ap-
parently rolled upon the rider. who
had been pitched over the animals
head. 1t seemed certain that Stacey
had been crushed lifeless, but by
the administering of stimulants, he
was revived and rushed off to the
Havre de Grace Hospital in an am
bulance. The first aid physician de-
clared that Stacey had been only
badly stunned.
LIE Marsouin. owned by Capt. Parr
took the chase in a common gallop.
1t was the captains second victory
of the afternoon. for in the first race
Fannie Cook, showing fine speed from
the break, outlasted Miss Shackleton
by a neck. with Mile. Dazie close up
in third position.
The next spill came with the run
ming of the sixth race. which was
won by Peasant. paying $500. With
the field coming down the stretch in
a mass the legs of Juanita Sd in some
way became tangled up and Wessler
was thrown to the track and knocked
out. He quickly came around, how
ever. and was able to ride in the
next event.
Commander Ross Motor Cop was
in front all the way in the Kent Han
dicap. the feature of five and a half
furlongs. but had to be shaken up
right at the end by Sande to with
stand the challenge of Startling.
The day was again ideal for racing.
but the crowd wasn't as large as
those which attended on previous days
of the meeting.
