Shape for Coming
Season

Although the 7. NJ. c. A. alleys on
Jefferson street will be opened on
Monday night for the first time since
the summer layoff, the bowling sea-
son in the city will not really start
coming month.
Considerable money has been
spent in putting the Jefferson street
alleys into shape. and a big season
is being looked forward to. During
the next week or ten days It is ex~
pected that the bowlers who perform
on the association alleys will spend
the better part of their time in linn
boring up. Several leagues are le-
ing planned at the association build
ing.
Emil Bohnsack is planning extern
sive Improvements for his Smith
street alleys and he intends opening
the alleys to the public on or about
September Is. The Smith street
bowling promoter is also OF the opin-
ion that the 1923-2z season will be
the best in a good many years.
Leagues will be formed and individ-
ual contests arranged for his bowl
ers, Mr.. Bohnsa6 has made known.
All of next week will be spent by
a contractor in preparing the Ar
gonne alleys on Hobart street for a
big season. Harry Levine intends to
throw open his alleys the second
week in September and when this
season starts the alleys will be in
better shape than they have been in
some time. The hremen's bowling
league is already being talked of.
The bowling alleys at the Elks
clubhouse will be opened about Sep
tember Is, providing improvements
are completed by that time. The
local club league and the Elks state
league will use these alleys again
this winter.

HARNESS RAGING WILL Be
TRENTON FAIR FEATURE

Each season the harness racing
program at the Trenton Fair, to be
held at Trenton six days and four
nights beginning Sept. "a, attracts
more hofsemen, with the natural
result of better contests between
fields of fast trotters, PAGERS and
runners.
Liberal conditions prevail in light
harness and running events. There
are extra premiums for drivers,
Jockeys and caretakers that insure
good feeling. Six races are given
every day except Friday and Satur-
day and patrons are offered the
same high-class program daily.
Auto races will be held Friday and
Saturday.
The latest and most popular sys-
TENS of deciding races have been in
augurated by the Trenton Fair Man
agement. From the time the first
heat is called until the entire pro-
idle moment.
Secretary AL. Saunders will give
the patrons a new style of early
closing events. A series Of $1,2OO
early closers will be programmed
and these will be supplemented with
a card Of $500 purse races of nom
inal entrance and no deductions. A
few dashes at different distances will
be added.
The $1,000 early closers will be
raced as three $500 dashes, and the
driver of the horse standing best in
each three race summary will be
awarded an additional purse. There
will be four classes.
The increase in the amount of the
purses has resulted in attracting to
the Fair some of the s%peediest horses
to be seen in the East this year.
