BiddefOrd Ice Races

Biddeford, Jan. 30.-The racing
carnival held on the Saco River
Speedway today under the auspices
of the Biddeford and Saco Driving
Club attracted drivers from all sec
lions of York County and proved one
or the most successful mGtinees yet
held under the direction Of the local
club. The mild weather brought out
a crowd of 1900.
In the feature event of the after
noon. a matched race between Tom
Donahue, the veteran formerly owned
by Z. e. Burbank of Alfred and now
the property of Patrolman Arthur
Sabourin of this city, and Mabel
kuestner, owned by Roy Taylor of
Alewlve, for a side purse of 500,
Tom Donahue came through to win
In the fifth heat. Every heat was
closely contested and at one finish
only inches separated the horses.
Tom Donahue was driven by Ar
mand Crepeau and the veteran Jack
Carney handled the reins over the
Taylo.' mare.
Tom Donahue took the first heat
and Mabel Kuestner the second and
third. The Biddeford horse came
through in the fourth and fifth.
Wilvena c, former Yarmouth mare,
now owned by p. ]. Kenneally of
this city, took three straight heats
from Lightning Express. owned by
Charles j. knight. Wilvena c is to
be matched with Tom Donahue, win
ner of the special today, for race
in two weeks.
Bingen Longwood, driven by the
owner, Armand Crepeau. finished In
front Of Tickle Me, driven by Luce,
in straig. heats.
Tommy Cross. driven by Forest
Gerry, won three out of four heats
from David d, driven by Harlan Bay
of Yarmouth, former owner of the
horse, in one of the prettiest races
Of the afternoon.
One of the best fun producers was
the three cornered race with Phil
Deforest, Nellie S, and Ring Master
as the starters. For the first two
heats Ring Master drew the jeers of
the crowd as he finished In a lope
nearly half the distance of the course
behind the other two entries. In the
third heat, however, Ring Master
seemed to tire of trailing and thrill
ed the crowd with a burst of speed
which carried him under the wire
more than so yards ahead Of the
other entries. He was disqualified,
however, as the judge ruled that the
horse broke in the stretch. The race
was awarded to Phil Deforest. Mel
lie S, the Sawyer horse. was driven
from Bar Mills. a distance of 10
miles, over the road. before the race.

Coburn's defeat of Kent's Hill was
one of the biggest surprises of bas-
ketball for the winter. The Water
vile club, supposedly a weak outfit
went down to Pittsfield and lost, a
game by a wide margin. Kents Hill
went to the same place and walloped
Pittsfield by just as wide margin
But Kent's Hill couldn't take CO.
burn over on the Augusta city hall
noor Saturday night. The Hilltop
pers were tired from the game the
night before and the travelling but
that doesn't take a bit of credit from
the Coburn quintet. Somewhere dur
ing the time that elapsed between the
NJ. G. l. game and the battle with
Kent's Hill Coburn picked UP some
thing that the f1ashy Kent's Hill
squad didn't possess and that was a
deceptive floor game.
Captain Martoski of Coburn shot a
lot of baskets, aided materially by
the fact that Casper of Kent's Hill,
either through orders or for some
other reason stayed in position and
let Martoski grab off nearly every
tip from the center. With matters
thus simplified and greatly aided by
the fact that Bernadini, the other
guard, a fast man and an accurate
board shot, roamed the floor to aid
in the scoring, Martoski adopted the
simple plan of dribbling within
shooting distance and dropping the
leather through the net.
But while the Coburn leader was
astonishing the crowds with his scor-
ing another member of the team was
doing stuff that had Kent's Hill
guessing. The slippery, timber Mr..
johnson, who held down the center
position for the Waterville club had
the ball more than his share of the
time and when he had it he knew
where he was going to pass 1t but
Kent's Hill didn't and at the end of
the game the Hilltoppers hadn't
solved his fake passing and pivoting
which contributed so largely to their
downfall.
