Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1922-04-30

In shifting his position in an en-
after getting the Lexington star off
in front, Schuttinger discovered he
was riding without support on one
side. Frantically. he sought to re-
place his foot in the lost stirrup. but
to his dismay found that the iron
had snapped from the dangling strap
and disappeared into the whirling
dust beneath. While this was going
on, Lucky Hour was picking his own
way as best he could and. in conse-
quence, ran into several pockets and
was frequently pulled up. causing the
loss of much ground.
In the meantime, Bunting, with
Morris aboard, was breeding along in
front with clear sailing. waiting with
much in reserve the expected rush
of the fleet Lucky Hour. 1t came
after all tire misfortune when well
into the stretch, but then 1t was too
late. Bunting dashed under the wire
just three parts of length before
the unlucky Lucky Hour, which

as Missionary and Sidereal were with
drawn. leaving only a quartet TO
struggle in the rich Preakness ana
Derby trial.
When Schuttinger returned to the
scales with his mount to weigh out.
he was met by demonstration that
has seldom been approached on
Maryland track. Angry supporters
of Lucky Hour. believing the veteran
pilot had deliberately pulled the ia
vorite. stormed about the stewards
stand. The jockey was the target
for the vilest of epithets and. the
disgruntled little army became so
threatening that Pinkerton detectives
formed protecting guard about him
at the scales and during the returning
march to the riders quarters.
Schuttinger. a fine little fellow,
was broken-hearted after the race.
He is paid a fabulous salary by the
wealthy owners of the Lexington
stable. who have the utmost confidence
in his integrity and felt the loss
more than anybody. Race devotees
may be able to accuse with reason
Schuttinger of being a bit timid in
dangerous predicaments. but they are
away off when they question his
honesty.
