Gradually Woodtraps owner entered

and gradually the number of victories
of Woodtrap increased. Higher and
higher he moved in the horse world !;
step by step he climbed back to the
heights which once were his because
he came from the aristocracy of the
horse world.
And he moved upward, horse owners,
always eager to get a good horse, be-
gan claiming him out of selling races
Each time Woodtrap changed hands it
was at higher figure. Occasionally
if he was raced a little too often-his
legs would go little bad. But brief
rest would bring him back.

BY FRANK C. MENKE

This is the story of a race horse
who slipped from greatness, sunk to
the depths-and then came back to
smash a record and make the might
lest horses in training look like SELL
ing platers.
His name is Woodtrap.
He was foaled seven years ago-this
son of Trap Rock-Woodvine. Coursing
through his veins is some of the bluest
blood in turfdom. As yearling he
looked like prospective world beater
August Belmont, who owned him, ex-
pected mighty triumphs for the splen.
didly formed chestnut colt.
But hardly had his racing career
began when Woodtrap developed hooi
trouble. They were soft-too soft fol-
a hard track in those days. The high
est priced veterinarians in the world
worked on his feet, but without ap
parent success.
On soft track, Woodtrap lived up
to his yearling promise for awhile
But as time went on, his hoof af.
Fiction became worse. The trouble
seemed to extend up into his legs
In the end Belmont disposed of him
at a price ridiculous in comparison
with Woodtrap's earliest valuation.
His new owners tinkered with his
feet for awhile, sent him into stake
and handicap races, only to see him
beaten of. Occasionally Woodtrap
would get into the money but only
because of his superlative gameness
which kept him running after his feet
gave him terrific pain.
Changes Owners.
WnnAfrap chon0HH o-nars o~,;,,
and again. Each one recognized the
worth Of his breeding-his wonderful
breeding. And each one hoped that
he would be the one who could bring
the racing cripple back to racing
health.
Each failed-through those years
Woodtrap, distanced in the handicap
races, was entered first in high class
selling plate clashes-then cheaper
and cheaper ones. He sank lower
and lower in the standard Of the horse
world. In very race he gave the best
that was In him: ran with his stout
heart at times when his legs seemed
to be crumpling beneath him; suffered
terrible beatings from jockeys-with
out f1inchings-from jockeys who
seemed to think that raising cruel
Welts on the tanks Of one of the
gamest thoroughbreds of all time
would cure his ailment; that bring
ing the blood to stream in little rivu
lets down his splendid body would
harden the hoofs and strengthen the
wobbly legs.
Seemed All In.
At last-two or three seasons ago
Woodtrap reached what seemed to be
the end OF his career. The horse which
once was valued at $4,000 ran in a
$500 selling plate race. And he was
beaten
The man who owned him then was
dlsgusted-so much so that he decided
to run Woodtrap no more. He wanted
to sell him-perhaps would have let
him go then for box of Pittsburgh
stogies. But no one in the horse world
thought enough of Woodtrap to offer
even that much for him.
And meanwhile Woodtrap idled away
his time in the barn, or in the
meadows-and his legs got the first
sustained rest of his racing career.

drive to left center after hard run.
In the sixth he robbed c. Runnels Of

catch in the eighth frame that cut off

going over his head and had to leap
into the air to make the catch.
Eagles Start Early
The Eagles started the lombard
ment early and sewed up the game in
the second round. In this round Gels
Ter was driven from the mound and
was relieved by Knott. Twelve men
faced the visitors pitchers and eight
Of these crossed the pan. The Cam
bridge team went to pieces in this
round and four hits, three errors, a
walk and a f1elders' choice gave the
locals eight runs.
After getting the big lead, Have
kotte eased up bit and was touched
rather freely but pitched good ball
when he was in a hole. Some good
fielding helped him several times.
Three Cambridge runners were thrown
out at the plate.
Both teams worked the double steal

worked it in the third round. in which
Knott scored. Roser and Fitzgibbons
worked it successfully in the seventh
frame, Fitzgibbons scoring.

mark Of Gavvy Cravath. formerly of

homers were spread over a greater
