.Bookies Take Beating
In Big British Race
BY the Associated Press

LINCOLN, England. Mar. 18.-
Gordon Richards, Britain's cham
pion jockey, won aboard Dramatic
today in the Lincolnshire Handicap
and brought off one of the biggest
betting coups in England in recent
years.
Alfred Cope, a London book
maker. said Dramatic was the best
backed Lincolnshire winner in
more than Is years and that all
bookmakers would need extreme
luck in the Grand National next
Saturday to recover enormous
losses" Dramatic paid 7 to /.
Owner A. E. lucky Saunders
and Trainer George Todd have
been quietly preparing Dramatic
for the race for the past five
months. In the meantime, thou
sands and thousands of pounds
were bet.
1t was the first big fiat race of
the new season and Richards
spent the final yards looking back
at the field of 40.

the President. The revised bill
has had a number of amendments
suggested by the White House to
make it more acceptable, some
of which are acceptable to the
author. However, the third
amendment would make these
funds bear all the cost of the
Federal fish hatchery program.
AS this cost is about the same
amount as the revenue expected
to be received. it would COM
pletely sabotage the whole pro-.
gram if included. Neither the
author of the bill nor the 1874

backing the bill like this rider.

Count-a-Bit Second
To Argentine Horse
Over Muddy Track
BY the Associated Press

MIAMI, Fla, Mar. 18.-Chicle
I'd won the $4,000 Gulfstream
Park handicap by a length today
over a rain-sodden strip, but his
most feared competitors-Calu-
met Farms Bewitch and Armed
were late scratches and did not
race.
The Argentine bred 7-year- old
under top impost of 125 pounds
including Jockey Hedley Wood
house, gained a length victory over
F. A. Blaser's Count-A-Bit at the
finish of the mile and a quarter
feature.
Gangway, owned by P. L. Kelley
and under the feather impost of
LOG pounds. was third, two lengths
behind Count-A-Bit and two
lengths in front of J. Jenkins
Chloe I'd.
Track Sea of Goo.
A tropical thunderstorm dur
ing the third race left the track
a sea of goo and caused Calumet
Trainer Ben Jones to withdraw
his powerful entry of Bewitch,
champion mare of 1949, and
Armed, richest gelding in the
work. Also scratched. for the
same reason, we're Hash Night,
Wynford I'd and Johns Joy.
Chicle I'd, expertly rated by
Woodhouse, apparently didn't
mind the mud and ran we'll in
third place until the six furlong
post-trailing the pace set by
Count-A-Bit.
Woodhouse made his bid on the
home stretch and Chicle I'd re-
sponded to finish length in front
Of eight 3-year-olds and upward.
Chicle DDS time was 2:03 fiat,
regarded as good considering the
heavy impoSt and slow strip.
9Th Victory In 10 Starts.
Chicle I'd now has earned S34,-
600. 1t was his sixth victory in
10 starts for the winter season.
Count-A-Bit cut out a fast pace
but was forced to give ground to
the stretch-running South Amer
lean.
An estimated 1900 racing fans
turned out for the slightly damp
afternoon of racing. Some 500
Shriners, including bands and
marching units. were guests of
the track for Shrine Day.
Chicle I'd rewarded 81 hackers
$3.50, $3.50 and 1910 across the
board. Count-A-Bit paid $3.50
and $4.2o and Gangway returned
$3.50.

Waldorf. Go straight through
the traffic blinker there and down
Route 301, the Morgantown
Bridge road, for about II miles
until you see the sign pointing to
Aliens Fresh. Turn left for about
a mile.
Take a minnow bucket with
you. You may purchase live bait
at the Fresh. You'll need small
perch hooks-about Size 26 Gin
cinnati Bass-a small cork float
and split shot. Any bass casting
rod and reel, spinning tackle or
fly rod will do.
No fishing license is required for
angling at the Fresh. However,
if you plan on trying some of the
brackish creeks flowing into tie
lower Potomac from the Virginia
side and fish inside point-to-point,
you'll need a Virginia license. For
non-residents, this costs 10 bucks.
Fletcher's Boat House. located
just beyond the intersection of the
New Cut and Canal roads on the
Potomac at the head of Edes Mill
Cove. expects to have most of its
fleet of rowboats in the water by
today. While the only perch in
the river at this time are the lit
tie three-inch fellows that stay
there the year around, one never
knows what day the spawning run
of the sea-run perch will start.
Best bait for these fish is a blood
worm or small piece of soft
shelled crab, or just a plain angle
worm. Blood worms will hardly
be obtainable at local sports stores
before the end of this month
when the run is expected to be
well under way. Soft crabs are
hard to find and expensive. So
the angleworm will. have to be
your mainstay for bait. We sug-
gest you take some catfish bait
along, just in case you don't find
the perch.

Fore AND AFT

Potomac River Sailing Associa-
ion officials have decided to try
out an entirely new set of courses,
with the starting line at the tip
of Hams Point, when their spring
series open April 30.
Commodore Writ Gill said last
night that the executive commit
tee had approved the new sys-
tenn drawn up by a committee
headed by Len Penso. Also on the
committee were Vice Commodore
Frank Marquardt and Ed Hoyt.
He explained that the Race
Committee would operate from
the seawall. with one end of the
starting line at that point. A
buoy marking the other end of
the line would be established
within an arc of some 800 de-
grees. This will permit greater
latitude in setting the line and
permit more windward starts.
Heretofore. the starting line has
been farther upstream in George
town Channel. The committee had
little leeWay in setting the line
there. The new system will re-
quire complete rewriting of the
race circular.
1--WE are looking for some gripes
but feel it's worth a trial." Com
modore Gill commented.
The traditional warmup race is
planned for April %. The regular
series will continue each Sunday
through June 3. There will be a
break May % for the long distance
race to Gunston Cove. The feet
will race back on Memorial Day
two days later.
