BOWIE TRACK FAST
FOR OPENING TODAY
Nearby Plant Inaugurates
35 Days of Spring Racing
in Maryland.

BY the Associated Press.
~ OWE, Md, April 2.--Maryland's
- Spring racing season found
pleasing portents in the opening
IL day here today.
An unusual number of horses
was here, with an unprecedented list of
entries for the first days feature, the
$4,000 Inaugural, the beginning of the
series of stake races to reach its climax
with the $4,000 Preakness at Pimlico
after the Bowie and Havre de Grace
tracks have had their meetings.
Pleasant weather and good track con-
ditions babe fair to give the meet q
flying start. There were 81 entries for
the first days card, 81 of this number
being for the feature race.
In this siX-furlong race for three
year-olds and up the entries included
Tutti Fruit, the Chilean horse, coming
here after Havana and Miami triumphs;
Mowley, representing Sam Hildreth's
bid for the stake: Solace, from the Sea-
gram Stables: False Pride, w. j.
Henfling entry, and Mrs. Charles Minot
Amory's Night Life and Sun Meddler.
Followers of the Sport expected some
of the horses that have been running
at the Winter tracks to win the feature,
rather than a representative from the
groups that have been wintering here
or at Pimlico or at Havre de Grace.
The season starting today will con-
tinue for IL days Of racing here and IL
days each ct Havre de Grace and
Pimlico.

1t IS going to take something more
than the other seven American League
clubs to cure Babe Ruth of the habit
of collecting his share of the annual
world series. The Babe has had the
habit SO long that it has infested his
entire system.
L. G. Hagen made his first bid for
fame in the United States open of 1918,
when he was about 20 years old. He
gathered little glory in that champion
ship, and yet as an unknown he had
chance to win with only six holes left,
when wild brassie in drizzling rain
broke up his attack. A year later he
was open champion.

knee. The reason for this position
is that it keeps the right side from
tightening up during the swing.
Golf, especially driving, is done with
the left arm in control, straight
left arm, too.
When one pivots during the back
swing the weight automatically shifts
in greater proportion upon the right
leg. A stiff right knee now tends to
brace that side and also TO make for
wrong right hip action during the
backswing. It also causes the weight
to shift to the right heel, instead Of
to the bali Of the sole Of the right
foot.
Keep the right knee slightly bent
throughout the backswing to prevent
the right hip swaying back or becom-
ing rigid. The reasons for this will
come along In later article.

boxing match or fight and get
II the populace steamed up over the
matter. But when this Is accom-
plished. getting the fighters to fight is
something else again.
With all seats taken and the tills
overlooking with gold, the main actors
then turn and hand you "Sharkey-
Stribling" or 'McLarnin-M Miller" anti
climax that carries about as much mel
odrama as half-stified yawn.
Most Of the boys are thinking Of the
next fight. The money for the one at
hand is already in. You can lead 'em
into the ring, but you can't make 'em
swing. This may be good business on
the part of the fighter, and again 1t
may not. The more fight is bally-
hooed the duller 1t turns out. No one
expects every fight to be q thriller, but
fighters collecting from $4,000 to $780,
600 have got to put on something more
than d dancing act, no matter how
fancy the Eight fantastic toe" might
operate.
Just how any one can force a
fighter to fight. to spill his stuff,
with all the competition now at hand
in five or six big cities, isn't the
easiest problem in the world. There
are only few headliners or crowd
pulIers, and there are six or eight
promoters after them.
Many of the fighters or boxers or
whatnots who have been guaranteed so
much for a March show have no idea
Of spelling good May or June date by
taking any unnecessary chances. They
figure the crowd will forget in few
days-and apparently the crowd does.
The more money that is crowded into
the situation the less chance taking
there will be. The general idea is to
clean up while the cleaning up Is good.
