1ege baseball haven't drawn
anything but signs in the North
this month, the only race track
near the MaSon-Dixon line has
created a steady pull, even on
days when fields were reduced
to the minimum because of the
impossible track.
It Was A Dank Day
And in the face of the ele.
ments which obtained at Bowie,
the remote spot between here
and Annapolis registered a new
world record for daily double
play last Saturday in the dank,
bleak, chill by taking in $30,934
on the combination play as
$4,000 stormed the windows to

Of wagering inaugurated at
Bowie is sufficient evidence
that it is the remedy for lean
crowds, particularly at tracks so
remote from large cities as
Bowie and Havre de Grace.
But racing interests, par.
ticularly the old guard, are
slow to adopt innovations. It
took forward-looking men like
Joseph E. Widener to inaug-
urate the totalizator at Hia-
leah. The smarter tracks have
followed his lead. If the play

Bowie is an indication, it will

Prick Sees Race
Habit is a strong thing to
overcome.
For over a decade Ford
Christopher Prick, as a news
paperman, wrote the annual ut
terances of the president of the
National League, John Heydler,
to the effect that a great race
was in prospect for that loop
and that any one of eight teams
had a chance to creep into the
leadership and impending world
series.
In fact, he wrote them so
often that he learned them by
heart, and on the occasion of
his visit here today to go to the
White House with Clark Griffith
to present annual passes to the
President and First Lady, re-
cited the exact words Mr.. Hey
dler has been giving the news

A waiter came up and lowered at

His reverie was broken by the ap-
proach of a man; a heavy-set man
in tweedt suit whose loose lines
could not conceal the outlines of a
muscular and supple body. This
man removed his hat, revealing a
shock of rebellious hair that was
more red than brown, and sauntered
up to lay a hand on Larrys shou-

said.
Larry looked up, startled. A sud-
