 CHARTER OAK FAIR
Sanardo, Driven by Murphy, Wins
 Free-fOr-All Event

Hartford Sept. 7.-Strafght heats, with one exception. were the rule on the opening day of the Grand Circuit races at Charter Oak Park here yesterday. The one excep- tion was the 2:04 trot. which Nedda, driven by Harry Fleming. won after a hard tussle with Tommy Murphy's speedy gelding. Charley Rex. The latter horse had the race apparently won when 1t went into break just before reaching the wire in the of the light harness game, was roundly applauded when he appeared the track behind Wiki Wiki for the drst race. the 2:i5 trot. The veteran responded by win ming the race in straight heats.
 Tommy Murphy piloted Sanardo home to a win over Direct c. Burnett and Gofdie San Francisco had trouble winning. leading his two rivals at all tinSes. Dar- vester, with Billy Fleming guiding it's des- tinies, grabbed the honors in the final event on the program-the 2:12 pace.
 The crowd was the largest at any opening day in years and the majority of racing enthusiasts stayed until the final event the program was run off.
 Wiki Wiki, from the stable of Ed Geers, with the veteran in the sulky got off in the outside position in the first heat or the 2:15 trot, but by the time the final turn was reached Geers had his horse in front He won the heat in hot finish, all five horses There was nothing to 1t but Geers in the second heat. Wiki Wiki had the pole position and kept it all of the way.
 Sanardo's Race.
 The free-for-alI pace went the way it was expected to, Sanardo walking away with both heats Direct c. Burnett, owned by John A. Pilgard. of this city. and driven by Billy Crozier. showed it's best form of the year, but it was no match for Tommy Mur- phys classy pacer. and Crozier had to be content with second place. Geers could do little with Goldie Todd and the bay mare finished in last place in both heats
 The only race that brought the crowd to its feet was the 2:04 trot, which Nedda won when Tommy Murphy's Charley Rex failed to stay upon its feet when it looked to have the final heat well in hand. Nedda was the smoothest working performer of the bunch. but Charley Rex appeared to have the most speed and the better staying quail tties losing only because of its many breaks The son of Recreation broke just after the word given in the opening heat and before it recovered it's stride the others had too large lead to overcome.
 The final the program was easy for Darvester, Billy Fleming's stopper lead ing at all times fin both heats. Joe Mack attempted to give the son of The Harvester a race in the second heat, but lacked the necessary speed.

Spring is here and with it comes
spring housekeeping. The house

throw away or burn great quantities
Of waste. The lessons learned during
the war should not be forgotten, let
It b" borne in mind that the recla-
nation OF waste is a problem which
- not only fitted for war times but
Tor the times of peace as we'll The
argument which may be advanced
from time to time that the utilization
of waste material in times other than
war is not necessary. is fallacious, be-
cause II IS very essential that some
means of offsettng the Fl. c. l.. be
found.
do not waste, waste-but turn II
back into the channels Of commerce.
You will be surprised at the tidy lit
tie sum OF money that can be dehived
by turning over all character of old
paper, rags, rubber. metals, and odds
and ends to the junk dealers who will
in turn start this waste back into
useful trades,
1t has been estimated that the
value Of unreclaimed waste materials
throughout the United States in the
form of paper, rags, rubber. metals
etc, is about $500. 900, 000. Fully 90
percent OF this material can be re-
claimed through the proper efforts.
The department of commerce has
on hand a limited number of publica-
tons on waste reclamation which it
will be glad to send Interested per-
