PopularC CourseTo-mor

The Brooklyn Handicap, which will
be run tomorrow as the feature race
of the opening day of the Queens Coun-
ty Jockey Clubs summer meeting al,
Aqueduct, is one of the classics of
the turf, and no event in the history
OF American racing has furnished more
thrllling finishes, beginning with the
initial running of the stake in 1887.
when Dry Monopole, Blue Wing and
Hidalgo finished heads apart in the
order named.
There was a great throng at the
course at Kings Highway on that oc-
caslon, but it is safe to predict that to-
morrow's outpouring of enthusiasts, if
the weather is kind, will far surpass
that which cheered the superb struggle
thlrty-two years ago.
1t is pity that the Aqueduct course.

not permit, OF the running Of big fields

Inc BROOKLYN would be much more

horses engaged if the distance we're

Gravesend. Every good horse in train
ing, with the possible exception of Sir
barton, which is an ineligible, is among
the candidates, and it should bring
about stirring contest.
Many good horses have won it,
among them The Bard, conqueror of
hanover. which he vanquished at
equal weights over muddy track; the
demon Exile, the swaybacked Tenny.

Saginaw Leads
Yachting Fleet
Home i'm Race
An-X Captures First Prize
A m ong Knockabouts;
! Meteor Wins in Star Glass

After being inactive on account Of
the war for the last two years, the
Yacht Racing Association Of Gravesend
Bay held regatta under the auspices
of the Atlantic Yacht Club yesterday.
The number of starters was a decided
surprise. During 1917 there never were
more than three yachts at the starting
line. Yesterday ne less than eighteen
to the starting line off Sea Gate.
Unfortunately, the light north north
west breeze, which brought the craft
to the starting line, petered out soon
after the starting gun for the final
class was sounded. The race then
dwindled into a drifting contest. To
make matters harder for the Corinth-
ians. the regatta committee, made up
of Samuel l.. Finlay, chairman; Lieu
ley, Crescent Athletic Club, picked
course that gave all hands stiff beat
from the starting line to mark off
Fort Hamilton. The leg also was
against head wind.
Naturally, the beat against wind and
tide in the light airs was responsible
for long race. To make matters more
difficult for the regatta comr.ittee, few
of the yachtsmen thought it necessary
years many of the boats have changed
owners, and as they appeared without
either class letter or number on their
sails the committee had q grand old
time trying to recognize the yachts.
AS no official Handicapped has been
appointed for lower bay yachting, the
committee decided to send all the
handicap yachts off in one class and
let the new Handicapped use the times
made yesterday as the basis for his
first allowances. On actual time the
fleet was led home by Saginaw, the
property of H. Poulson, Marine and
Field Club.
Among the knockabouts of the lower
bay the first prize was won by An-X,
the property of R. FitzGibbons. The
craft beat Mouse by 25 seconds over
the 7.3-mile course. In the Star Glass,
r.. II. Finlay's Meteor defeated C. J..
.Atkinsons Murad.

One temptation in making difficult

to combine the advantages Of both, and
many a time merely combine all the
disadvantages. To be sure, there are
times when a compromise is the wisest

are which? Well, that is simply an
