Record Crowd Sees
Cush|amacree Repeal
Al Cumberland
Special Dispatch to The Star.


CUMBERLAND, Md, Aug. H.
History repeated itself before a
record crowd of 1000 when Cush-
lamacree. the property of John
Foster OF Brunswick, MG, reeled of
l 1i16 miles in l:50s5 to make 1t
two straight in the 81 900 Clifton w.
White Handicap.
A 2-to-5 favorite, Cushlamacree
lay in fourth place in the flve-horse
field for three-quarters of a mile
In the run down the back lane the
second time, Leonard Bowers took
Cushlamacree to the outside of her
field. She quickly passed all but
Mrs. Guy Needy's Rampage, the
pacemaker. The final quarter had
the throng in an uproar as Cush-
lamacree and Rampage battled it
out to the payoff line a half length
apart. The choice paid $3.50, with
Rampage's hackers receiving S4.2O.
j. x. Wynkop's Alhalon was third.
1t was Cushlamacree' fifth consec-
utive stake victory
Despite the fact that he was
carrying top weight of 121 pounds,
Bugler, owned by j. K. Fockler of
Hagerstown, Md, led all the way
in the opener to pay $3.50. The
Art Ray Stables Bow Wave, favor
lite, and E. T. Chewning's Ginomel
finished as named.
Patsy Grant made it two in a
row when he accounted for the 61a-
furlong second The filly@ led
throughout and paid s6.40. A
s34 daily double payoff was posted
with Bugler and Pilgrim Maid
scoring.
There will be no racing here

In warehouse near Paris, and in
the golf house and shop at the
famed st. Cloud course near the
French capital, American soldiers
found around 1000 complete sets
of golf clubs, including hundreds
of the best American makes. Ger
man officers in the occupation forces
had been using them at st. Cloud
and LaBoulie, two of the layouts
near Paris.
1t. Gen. Ben Lear, now retired
from the Army, and a member of
Columbia, tells the story. Did we
use them?" Gen. Lear was asked
I'VE sure did" he said. The only
drawback was that golf balls were
very scarce; but somehow we got a
few. and some of the American
officers, when they could take time
off from their duties, used them. OF
