BOWIE, Md. November 29.-Into
the pages of history faded Marylands 8
greatest fall racing season today at
Bowie, when the triumph of six IA
vorites made the finale a glorious one
for students of form. Despite 4
steady drizzlc, Washington and Balti
more sent their usual large Saturday
! cortege of racing fans into Prince
Georges county to witness the wind
UP.
The thoroughbred which prevented
the favorte players from going
through the matinee with a perfect
score was Johnny Schorr's Mint Cat
winner of the fifth race at mile
and seventy yards. at trifle better
| than to 1. Outrun until the head
of the stretch. Mint Cat closed with a
rush under Hamilton's urging and
was up in time to defeat Woodtrap a
neck, with n. K. Beal third.
1t was also by a neck that the
Southern Maryland handicap. over the
mile trail. and the cards feature, was
decided. 1t went to Mrs. r. A. Smiths
Slippery Elm. which, rated in behind
the pace until the final furlong, closed
with fine speed and won going away
from Old Rosebud. The latter dis
! played brilliant flight of early foot,
! but weakened right at the end. Bal
let Dancer II finished with excellent
| courage to be third.
Arthur Saddles Two Winners.
Gold and glory came to Jim Arthur.
/ who trains for Mrs. T. Francis, on the
closing day. Jim saddled a pair of
winners in the Lord Herbert and
Bolster. The former Outran his field
! all the way and won the sixth race at
| a mile and a furlong by eight lengths,
while Bolster triumphed almost as
J handily in the final event.
i Ben Chapman waited a long while
| to put over Frank Monroe, but he
! succeeded in the opener of 4 mile and
a sixteenth for platers. This capable
old fellow had all the speed of his
company and was eased up at the
end three lengths in front of W.
! Ward. with Buck kboard third. T. NJ
| Cassidy's Weary made it two in a
! row when she easily took down the
second number. over the mile route
| mans Carmandale was a hot thing
| in the Au Revoir handicap, at six
and half furlongs, for juveniles,
winning all the way from kallipolis
| and My Dear, which were second and
| third, respectively.
