ranked third among the grand circuit
trotters last year. although apparently
innocent, are faced with the probability
of having to refund thousands Of dol
lars won by the colt, 1t has been re-

Because Clyde the Great is alleged to
have been raced out of his class, his
Winnings-he topped the summary one
$4,000 stake and in two 5000 events
must be turned back and redis-
tr1buted among some twenty or thirty
horses which finished behind him in
each heat of these and other events in
which he will be disqualified.
He raced in his class in only two
events, it is said
The muddle, said to be one of the
most complicated in the history Of the
grand circuit, resulted from an investi-
CATION by Fred Edman. Memphis horse
man and owner of F'ayonian, which in
variably finished second to Clyde the
Great. Several thousand dollars will be
paid to Edman if Clyde the Greats win
nings are refunded.
The records show that Clyde the
Great raced at Indianapolis September
!, 1922. and in winning the second
heat, steDped to a win race of 2.07 fiat.
The daily press and the turf jour
nails, II is said, carried the time of that
mile at 2.07A, which would make Clyde
the Great a 2.0S trotter
On the assumption that he was a
EOS trotter, Tommy Murphy. prominent
Syracuse driver, purchased the colt for
a reported sum of $4,000 from c. G.

is claimed, raced the horse through en-

new MICHIGAN GYM
ALREADY IS TAXED

ANN ARBOR, Mich, January "a
Possibility that the seating capacity of
the new Yost Field house will have to
be increased before the fourth basket
ball game is played in the new building
faces athletic officials of the University
Of Michigan.
Sale of tickets for the Minnesota
game Saturday has been so heavy that
Harry Tfllotson, who is in charge has
announced that 1t might be impossible
to provide for the crowd under present
seating arrangements.
One of the reasons for building the
field house was to provide a place where
students might witness basket ball con-
| tests. The seating capacity is 5000, or
more than three times that of the gym
) nasium in which basket ball teams
played formerly. The first basket ball
game Of the season brought 5000 spec
tators, the second game increased the
count by about 1000 and more than
5000 saw the third game.
When plans for the field house were
drawn two years ago it was thought
the seating capacity of the basket ball
court would take care of the needs of
| the university for many years to come.
