The establishing of each new turf rec !
ord always brings the query:
''Aret the horses of today faster than
those of bygone years-or is the greater
speed due to track improvements
The racing game in this country has
known four eras of great race horses;
four periods in it's history when there
was running almost at the same time
or within few years of each other
some of the most spectacular steeds that
ever faced a barrier.
Going back % and 30 years one recalls
the mighty Salvador the immortal Tenny,
Hanover, Chaos, Bauquet kingston Or

burg Henry of Navarro, Domino, Cliff
ford, Dobbns and Ben Eder In some
what later era Broomstick, Irish Lad,
Ballot Dick Wells, The Parader Com
nando, Ort Wells and Yankee were
among the, truly greats.
Fifteen years or so ago came the third
great group-Colin, McChesney, Uncle,
Sysonby, Peter Pan, Celt. Fair Play,
Hastings, Artful, Delhi, Nasturtium, Her
mis-, Beldame Imp, King James, Cunard,
McCarter, Cap and Bells and Blue Girl

fourth era is that of the present time
the past few years during which racing
I
years of Roamer, The Finn, George
Smith Lucullite. Billy Kelly, Man O. War,
Regret, Omar Khayyam, Hourless,
Strombol and the others who have made
turf glory.
Which period produced the greatest
horses?
1.-THE old days, of course" assert the
old-timers with vehemence. mo rea-
soning person can construe it as other
wise. Take merely the case of Salvador
against Roamer.
RAN MILE IN 1854
Far back IN 1890 Salvador ran mile
on the straightaway in :351s The track
was one of the most modern then-but it
would be considered wholly unsuited by
horse owners Of today. They wouldn't
| race over such track If it was in the
| condition that Salvador knew when he
ran his historic mile.
J For on that day the track was ankle
deep in dust And beneath that dust the
track-as was the case in those days be-
| fore the track construction became a sci
ence-was lumpy and uneven. But Sal
vator raced over it in :35i5.
| For IS years hundred thousand
horses have run the mile course-and
| not one except Roamer ever came close
! to the Salvador mark. And year after
, year the tracks were made faster and
| there was the boast that the breed OF
horses was improving-but Salvator's
mark remained unbeaten until Roamer's
| time.
| In 1918, Roamer, running around turns
| on the Saratoga course, negotiated
| mile in "a As. But he ran On paste
board track-over a course so fast be-
cause of special construction that even
common sellnP -platers ran mile daV
! after day in / :37 and 1:39. In other words.
Rcamer travelled only about 2l-4 to 3
| seconds faster than the selling platers
Of his day. while no platter in salvatore
time-running on the same track-couid
/ come within seconds of his mark
| HAD Salvador, on the day he ran Tor
the record. raced over track as iisht-
nin~ fast as was Saratoga on Roamers
day il 1915 it's the surest bet IN the
world that he would have Travelled IN

carried so far that it has had detri-
mental effect upon the horses, has short
ened the careers of many mighty racers
long before their allotted time
Back in the old days the top soil was
permitted to remain on the tracks, serv-
was no terrific shock when the horses
pounded around the oval. But with the
coming of the craze for 'speed--more
speed'-a radical change was made in
track construction.
The top soil is trimmed off nowadays.
The running surface becomes almost
concrete. And the result has been that
horses cannot stand up for long under
the hard footing and go lame or break
down with startling frequency in COM
parison with the days of Salvador, Ten

CHARLES CUTLER TO
WRESTLE ZBYSZKO
AT B. A. c. TONIGHT
Hot Bout Expected When
the Two Grapplers Meet.
ZbyszkO Has Strength,
Cutler Science

Charles Cutler and Wladek
Zbyszko will meet at the Bir-
mingham Athletic club tonight
in wrestling match, with
Zbyszko the favorite to win.
However the Polish grappler
will not have an easy time with
the American, for Cutler is
Astounding in mat knowledge,
and is one of the most scientific
grapplers of today.
Cutler will be outweighed about 10
pounds. but his skill will more than
make up for this difference in weight
rne way the dope points for tonights
match is this: Zbyszko is the stronger
of the two men, but Cutler exceis IN
skill and craftiness. The question is,
which will conquer, brute strength OF
skill and science?
Both grapplers have been training
hard for the match Zbyszko has plans
for another worlds championship
(Which he lost to Joe Stecher in
mitch last summer, and he has been
conditioning himself toward that end.
1t is said that he expects to meet
the scissors king in return bout
which will decide for once and Tor all
the worlds title.
cutler also has been training for
tonight,s match He is in almost per-
feet physical condition, and although
he has not the tremendous strength
that characterizes zbyszko. his stamina
and endurance are exceedingly great II
is thought that Cutler will be able
to hold his own against the mighty
Pole when the two meet tonight.
Fans who witnessed the memorable
Freberg -Zbyszko bout here at the be-
ginnig of last summer, will remember
Zbyszko as a strong, aggressive grap-
pier. He pursued the cool Freberg~
all around the ring. and was always
right after his opponent after each ses-
sion on the mat. Fans are always as
sured of action when one of the Crap
piers is Zbyszko.
Coach Wilbur Hutsell has arranged
a splendid preliminary bill and en-
poets to stage many stunts on shls
junior programme. The usual comic
acts will be presented, including the
negro boxing bouts and battles royal.
The local alleys have been combed far
and wide to obtain the best darktown
talent available in this city
considerable amount of interest has
been displayed in tonight's match and
officials of the B. A. c. are expecting
a record crowd at the match. Tickets
are now on sale 'at the office of the
club, and can be bought there. All
reservations made by telephone will be
held until a late hour, just before the
