COUNTY BOARD
ORDERSPROBE
Of TOWING

Terming the so-called "towing
racket" in Prince Georges county
as a criticism Of exceptional cases,
a majority Of the Prince Georges
Board Of County Commissioners
yesterday ordered Chief Of Police
J. j. Crowley to investigate the
complaint Of H. r. D. Wilson,
manager Of the Nu-Car Forward
ing Company Of Baltimore, that
one Of his employees was a victim
Of the racket"
The Baltimorean charges that
when Fred Burton, an employe,
was arrested a week ago for a
minor violation, his car, still me-
chanically unharmed, was towed
past several garages to a Hyatts-
vile automobile dealers garage,
while Mr.. Burton was locked up
at Hyattsville. The" towing charge
was $3.50.
Ormond w. Phair, chairman of
the board. declared that when
county police arrest drivers, they
will not be allowed to leave cars
on the highway, and with the
county liable for safekeeping Of
such autos they will be put in
garages. The policeman must
choose the first available garage
man if the driver does not specify
where he wants the car stored
while he is under arrest.
The commissioners will await
Chief Crowley's report, to be sub
mitted when they meet again in
two weeks, before taking any &C.
ton. It was indicated, however,
that any nagrant violations would
result in the dismissal Of the
policeman involved.

in it. There are no stalls out
at the show grounds for the
horses, they are just tied around
in the shade Of the large trees
and it Is a beautiful sight to
see all these good horses there
together.
An hour for lunch aud then
you go leisurely back to the
show. Il love the place as they
never hurry you. There always
seems time for everything).
All of us were excited about the
jump-off Of the morning class.
They began, and as the jumps
were raised many were disQuali-
fled for tipping or for slower
time than others. Whichever ma.
tion is ahead, they fly that ma.
tion's flag from a high pole in
the middle of the ring.
Finally a tall, slim, good
looking Italian, Captain Kecler,
on a beautiful black thorough
bred named Coclite, dashed
into the ring and in a most
sensational m amer cleared
every jump in racing time and
took first away from Captain
Bizard Of the French (who had
won the best class in London)
by a few seconds.
Both Captain Kecler and Coc-
lite were wringlng wet by this
time-but such a happy, ra-
diant, handsome face Gin spite
of the biggest nose on it, have
never seen, and the crowd ap-
plauded them long and heartily.
They give IL ribbons in each
class, so a good many of these
wonderful horses get something
Capt. Jacque Misonne, Of Bel
gium, got third, and Capt. c. B.
Hardy, of Ireland, who has
showed in America, at Chicago
and Madison Square Garden,
and who hunted with the Mid.
dleburg Hounds last winter, won
third in this big class.

The next class of the after.
noon was a small class for them,
go horses. Several girls jumped
in this, and most of them wore
pink coats and white breecheS
like the men. I hear they hunt
in that costume, also.
This was q thrilling class,
with some bad falls. The girls
ride nothing like as well as the
men. One girl was thrown on
top of the bank jump as her
horse landed on the bank, and
then she couldn't get him down
the straight side, so she had to
go back down the Sloping side
Of the bank and be disqualified.
In this class was entered
Crispa, the most noted show
horse in Europe, belonging to
Colonel Borsarelli, of Rome. He
is a perfect specimen of a

white feet, a white and pink
nose, and white star on his fore
head. Colonel Borsarelli is an

He and Crispa were a joy to

no one else rides her. He just

Although they made such a
wonderful performance in this
class, they were a second and q
half behind the time Of Lieut.. j.

who also went clean. So first
went to the Irish who are such
wonderful riders. But I have
more to tell you about our

The polo game played on
Phipps Field on Monday be-
tween the War Department and
the Fauquier-Loudoun Polo Club
was won by the former II to 4.
The Army team played a good
game. Our team was decidedly
off and very slow. The lineup
for the War Department was:
Lieut.. Charles Reed, No. /.
Lieut.. Gordon Rogers, No. 2.
Lieut.. George Grunert, No. 3.
Lieut.. Gene Harrison, back.
The Fsuquier-Loundoun men
playing were:
Turner Wiltshire, No. 1.

Dick Kirkpatrick, No. 3.
William Hubert, back.
The Army team certainly got
revenge for the licking they got
on Saturday on the same field.
These are some Of the remarks

Lieut.. Gordon Rogers played
a good heady game as did
Lieutenant Grunert. Lieut.. Gene
Harrison played above him.

In fact the whole team hit

The Lucerne Horse Show
started amidst brilliant sun.
shine, flags Of all nations fly
ing and bands playing. The
first class, with SO horses en-.
tered, was very thrilling. I
thought the last class at Olym-
pia was the greatest exhibition
Of jumping I had ever seen,
but in this outdoor show, in
which a great many Of the
horses were entered that we
saw jump in London, the per-
formances far surpassed any
thing else.
In this class Of SO there
were so many clear perform
ances that lunch hour came
before it could be jumped off
SO the jump-offs were carried
over until the afternoon.
There were many officers Of
the Irish, English, French and
Belgian cavalry that we met
in London. The Swiss officers
and people Of Switzerland had
many entries and the Italian
officers had many entries Of
good horses.
Lieutenant Bizard, Of the
French cavalry, with his horses,
Ell Taiellei and Achachon,
which had won so much in
London at Olympia, were in
this class, and the jump-off
for the afternoon with 48 clear
performances couldn't help be.
ing exciting.
Each horse goes in the large
ring and has to jump IL jumps
of different kinds that get
higher as he goes around, start
ing with a single pole with q
box hedge in front; then a pal
ling fence, a gate, stone wall
with a log on top, one pole, a
spread jump with box hedge in
front inside that higher up, two
poles the same level but two and
la half feet apart and a hedge
on the other side, an in and out,
two bank jumps very high in
which they jump up on the
bank with just room to land
and then down a bank Zone Of
these jumps has a water jump
on the landing side) a brick and
stone wall combined with a log
on top, another box hedge to
the finish.
All the horses are timed for
clear performances and the
shortest time in which they get
around the course wins the
class. Their horses are so we'll
bred they don't have to consider
conformation, I suppose.
They have a new kind of
time clock that is set in the
judges stand. AS a horse goes
to the first Jump he goes
through and breaks a tiny
thread, this starts the clock.
AS he lands from taking the
last jump another thread is
broken and the clock stops.
Every one thinks this clock is
wonderful and Mrs. Whieney
has ordered one to be sent to
her in America, so you can see
some time how good it is.
At each jump a boy is sta
toned in a uniform on the
order of our Boy Scout uni
forms, only these are red and
white. The boy holds two flags
in his hands, a white one and a
red one, as the horse goes over
the jump. If the performance
is clean, he waves the white
flag so all can see and if the
horse makes a fault he waves
the reg flag.
This is a good thing as the
ring is so large you can't al
ways tell If the horse has hit
or not and each tip counts so
many faults.
Back Of the judges and ex-
hibitors stands is the exercis-
