Bath Turf Prospects

A local horseman was saying the
other day that there isabsolutely no
reason why there cannot be some good
turf racin ghere during the summer
and fall. There are at least dozen
fast horses owned in Bath and with
the necessary pep the owners would
become interested enough to start
something. All that seems to be hold
ing the summer and fall race business
back is lack of enthusiasm and an
unwillingness to supply what funds are
necessary to keep the thing going.
During the winter there were some
high class ice races. Why wait for
another winter to come before letting
the fast ones out and furnishing a
whole lot Of sport for the community.

" and are out to win with the larg-
est possible score.
The East side aggregation, how

fear from their opponents and are
resting comfortably certain under
that impression. The contest should
be mighty interesting and well worth
witnessing. The whistle will blow
at s o'clock.
