An Incentive, Indeed

If it is a success, and cer-
tainly 200 entries in a terrapin
race can't be sneezed at, the
affair will be repeated each
year, thereby giving a real in
centiVe to terrapin growers to
improve the breed from year to
year until perhaps a century
or two from now some terrapin
owner will have a thoroughbred
capable of racing against the
EQuipoise or the Man O. War
Of that day and time.
Now this terrapin racing is
no laughing matter. In the
first place it will cost each
owner of the 200 terrapins
exactly SO to enter his steed
next Labor Day.
According TO our rough sort
Of arithmetic that will make a
purse of something like 5000,
more or less, give and take.
This 5000 will be divided among
owners of the first three terra
pins-that is to say the ter
rapin which travels the farthest
in any direction from a given
white-wash circle that will be
the starting point.

and the "semis" will be played
this afternoon instead, with the
titular round scheduled for the
week end.
The program remains the same.
Helen Jacobs clashes with
Dorothy Round, the winner to
meet Mrs. Helen Wills Moody
for the title tomorrow.
After the great Moody's singles
opponent has been decided Queen
Helen will go out on the courts

All the principals in the wettest

the tournament are in fine shape.
Mrs. Moody'S back injury has

The clash between Miss Jacobs

Nelson Grows Alarmed
They had entrained earlier in
the day from New York. accom-
panied by "Tigah" Nelson, buSi-
ness agent for the wrestlers.
Everything was lovely until the
train stopped after passing Bal
timore, and Nelson grew alarmed.
He had read in the New York
papers that the Crescent Limited
had plunged from weakened
trestle near Washington.
The train was rerouted and
finally halted on the lines in
southwest washington. With the
minutes ticking away and the
train waiting for signals to pro-
ceed, Nelson decided upon quick
action.
"How about opening that door
and letting us OFF," he said to
the brakeman.
Against the Rules
Cant do it. Against the
rules" was the reply.
But we're a couple Of wreS-
tiers and Daddy Joe Turner's

don't know where we are" Mel
son answered.
II don't give two hoops about
any Daddy Joe Turner. It's
against the orders to unlock that
door,"
Nelson saw further argument
was futile and, turning to Steele
and Garibaldi, said:
"HOld this guy while open
the door,"

was as helpless against Steele and
Garibaldi as Ocean City, Md, with

this gala Labor Day terrapin
trot.
Although terraplns from out
side Prince Frederick will be
entered, the voters of that
county believe they have the
best-blooded terrapins extant
when it comes to speed afoot
and you can drive that direction
early any morning and dis
cover the neighbors out in the
road with their terrapin stables,
getting into condition for the
impending contest.
In fact down yonder they
have the science of terrapin
racing reduced to such a COM
mon denominator that there
are some farmers who can
handicap a terrapin, rating his
chances over a given distance
against a given field taking into
consideration weight, size and
age.

Cant Coerce Terrapin

From what I gather the rules
of terrapin racing are very
strict.
For instance, unlike in horse
racing. there can be no jockey
aboard a turtle.
Neither may a terrapin be
whipped or otherwise excoriated
to step on the gas.
Any owner who coerces his
terrapin. is guilty Of a foul and
both he and his racer will be
Summarily tossed out Of the
competition.
