from the worlds record of 2031a
held by Maud S.
BY 1845 the promoters of the Hol-
mead track had evidently discon-
| tinued racing there, for at this time
William Holmead announced that
he had divided his farm, including
the race course, into lots of 5 to SO
acres. Prior to this the National
Jockey Club had conducted races
there.
Another early race track in the
old city limits occupied space in the
vicinity of st. AIMS Infant Asylum
at Twenty third street and Pennsyl-
vania avenue, and here was also a
cockpit where cockf1ghts were held
Still another of the pioneer race
tracks of the District of Columbia
is described as being near the end
of the Eastern Branch Bridge, at
the foot of Fourteenth street east"
Naturally no one living has per-
sonal recollection of these early
race courses, but there are many
who still remember the Crystal
Spring Race Course, laid out in the
Brightwood section in 1859.
Though only half-mile track, yet
for years it prospered and drew
large crowds by advertising in The
Star, of which the following is
an early example:
stage coaches for Crystal Spring
and the race course. The under
signed will run a stage coach for
the above places, making two trips
a day Except Sunday, when three
trips will be made. leaving Ma

cents; children, half price. E. Fer
guson, proprietor of stages"
Subsequently the Crystal Spring
course became the Piney Branch
course, and later-as many of us
knew 1.-THE Brightwood Trotting
Park.
Ideal for PicnicS.
Since there were several fine
springs near the race course, and as
the surrounding country was heavily
wooded, it made ideal picnic grounds,
just as the part nearest Rock Creek,
now in the National Park, does even
today. Naturally in ye olden days
there was a tavern connected with
the race course. the proprietor being,
from about 1863 to 1880, Frederick
G. Rohr. Later, for some years, it
was conducted by his widow, Mrs.

an unusual object or light is
sighted, it is required that the cap
tain be notified Immediately. At
such a time, the vigilant captain
will bestir himself and repair to
the bridge. or to some other point
of vantage where he can judge
how close his ship will pass to the
object sighted. Should he deem
that there is even a remote posi-
bility of danger being involved, he
will handle his ship until the danger
is passed. Otherwise he will not
have a leg to stand on should an
accident occur.
An admiral or a captain whose
command fails to attain victory in
an engagement with an enemy, or
who fails to engage an enemy with
which contact has been made, is
certain to face a searching inquiry
concerning the reason for the flaSco.
For obvious reasons, this article,
for purposes of illustration, con-
fines itself to happenings of years
ago, but the Navy is traditionally
hide-bound. and some of the de-
cisionS made in former years have
been duplicated in recent times.
In 1907. there occurred the dis
graceful Chesapeake-Leopard affair.
Although the Chesapeake was not
lost, Commodore James Barron was
held responsible for the incident,
and was not given another COM
mand at sea.
In the War of 1872, the United
States sloop Wasp captured the
British brig Frolic after a spirited
engagement, only to be almost i'm
mediately taken by the British ship
of the line Poictiers. Jacob Jones,
the captain of the Wasp, received
several subsequent commands and
attained high rank in the Navy. A
destroyer bears his name.
The United States frigate PreSi-
dent was forced to surrender to a
squadron of four British frigateS
after a severe action. Her captain,
Stephen Decatur, held subsequent
commands, and destroyer carries
his name.
The ill-starred Chesapeake struck
its flag to the British frigate Shan
non, being one of the few instances
when a United States ship has
surrendered to an enemy of equal
force. Captain James Lawrence,
very popular and efficient officer,
was fatally wounded during the
battle, and it is interesting to con-
lecture what action would have been
Evening star., 1941-02-23
By Capt. Frederick L. Oliver
U. s. Navy (Retired).

The toll in lost naval vessels eX-
acted by the present war has been
heavy. Every few days, one or an
other of the belligerent nations
acknowledges the sinking of ship
of its navy, and, as is to be ex-
pected, the British Navy has suffered
the greatest loss, because it is wag-
ing an offensive war on the sea,
and has a great number of naval
units constantly exposed to attack
by submarines, airplanes and motor
torpedo boats.
The Articles for the Government
of the Navy, usually referred to in
the Navy as Rocks and Shoals, y
which is the basic law covering mat
ters of discipline in the United
States Navy, was, when our Navy
came into being, taken almost ver-
batim from similar British regula-
tions.
With the passage of years, some
changes have been made ia them,
but taken all in all, our methods
of official Investigations and courts
martial proceedings still bear a
marked similarity to those of the
British Navy, and a description of
the manner in which our Navy
handles disciplinary matters con-
nected with the loss of a man-of-
war, will give an idea of the pro-
cedure used by the British Navy in
time of peace.
It is common belief that cap
tain in the Navy who loses a ship
never receives another command
This impression is not correct, be-
cause the extent of culpability at
tributed to the captain when the
loss is investigated, determines his
prospects of being assigned to an
other command.
Should the investigation disclose
even presumptive dereliction on the
part of the captain, he appears be-
fore a court-martial. A trial oi
this kind sits details very thorough
ly, and if it is found that the captain
used poor judgment, or was ineffl-
cient or negligent, his chances Of
ever having another command ol
other position of responsibility are
indeed, poor.
/ Should it be determined that tn,

a while, it is said, "but finding he
could not do any better, asked If
at that price an old halter could
be thrown in" The Senator de-
clned to do so, according to re-
ports, but later gave him a pair of
probably the finest horse blankets
ever made. which had cost $500 to
manufacture.
Upon another occasion, when
Representative j. c. Sibley of Penn
sylvania asked for a price on the
colt Electric Bell, which was valued
by the Senator at $1,000 for every
day he lived, he was informed Dy
wire that it was $1,000, the colt
being just IL days old. Three days
later he was asked if that was the
best he could do on a cash basis
and he was informed the price had
gone UP $4,000 since the last offer.

have lived to see this section grow
from few struggling houses with
villa sites to a city of congested
dwellings.
Still within the. memory of many
is the keen interest taken in race
horses by the late Leland Stanford,
while he was serving in the United
States Senate, from 1885 to 1893.
He seems to have been luckier than
many who have tried Dame Fortune
with the ponies, and to have added
considerably to his already stu
pendouS wealth.
An idea of how he turned money
over. and how easy it came, is re-
lated in several of his transactions
one, regarding The sale of Arion
which he sold to j. Malcomb Forbes
of Boston for $125,0O0 cash. Mr.
Forbes objected to the price for

Wayne University has this year
Anxious to finish their education, they're
aware that they may have to end their
schooling at any time to take their places
in the new scheme OF things.
This years enrolment includes as
many girls as men, an indication that
defense jobs and the salary they offer
have taken their toll in the normal stu
dent group.
The university itself has taken note
Of the defense situation and. this year
offers some 60 new courses-all OF them
allied to defense. And although the stu
dent receives no credit, one out Of every
10 students is taking one Of the courses.
