All Profits Of Final Day
Saturday, Go to National
Organizations

Pawtucket, R. l., May 3.-The
Narragansett Racing Association,
which donated $l83, 1881 to war re-
lief and local charities during the
racing season OF 1912, will turn
over the profits of the Gay that is
expected to be the most successful
OF the spring season to the Red
Cross and the United War Funds.
Next Saturday, concluding day of
the season, has been ear-marked by
President James E. Dooley of Gan
sett as matinee from which the
track will profit nothing. On that
afternoon, $4,000 is guaranteed to
the Rhode Island chapter of the Red
Cross. This is the amount that
Little Rhody fell short of its quota
in the recent Red Cross drive. All
other profits will be given TO the
United War Funds, which includes
the Army and Navy Relief Funds,
the USO and numerous other organ
izations.
Special ceremonies are being ar
ranged for the benefit day. Officials
of the Red Cross and the United
War Funds, as we'll as high-ranking
officers of the Army and Navy will
be guests of honor.

The HorSemen'S Benevolent and

cludes virtually every stable racing

termine what contribution the
horsemen themselves will make to
the days total. This donation may
| come either in the form of an out
right cash contribution or in a guar
antee of winning owners giving a
percentage of their purses to the
general fund
Last season, Narragansett made
one of the most generous gestures of
any track in the country when it
donated gross receipts of the day on
which the SIS, 900 Narragansett Spe-
clal, richest race of the season was
run, to war relief, and also gave
the tracks proceeds from the
much = heralded Alsab WhirlaWay

Ten Famous Horse Races
LAST ARTICLE OF THE sERIEs1

Midland and Challedon drove at
the leaders, there were four horses
all in a knot. On the extreme out
side the devils red of Calumet
was flying past horses as Whirly
launched his stretch bid.
Down they drove in a Whirling
blur of silks. At the sixteenth pole
Attention sail was in front and, with
Meade failing him like a demon
appeared to be the winner But with
SO yards to go, Whirly was at his side
In one jump he was even with him
Another and he was in front. AS
they crossed the finish it was Whirl-
away by three-quarters of a length
Attention second by a half-length
Midland third by head and Chal-
ledon fourth.
Whirlaway, probably the most
durable good horse the American
turf ever has seen, went on through
a brilliant season after that and
at Suffolk Downs in July won the
$50, 900 Massachusetts Handicap to
break Seabiscuit's all-time money
winning record.
