Commission 10 Study
Meade Reinstatement
BY the Associated Press

I
NEW YORK, July 24.-Dor
Meade, one of the country's tor
jockeys before he was suspended
in 1945, is hopeful of riding again
The 37-year- -old rider revealed
yesterday that he had applied to
the New York State Racing Com
mission for a reinstatement of his
license.
No action is expected to be taken
until Ashley Trimble Cole, chair
man of the three-man racing
commission, returns from his
vacation.
The commission usually meets
once month, but a special meet
ing probably will be called to dis
cusS Meade's request.
Meade, winner of the 1888 Ken
lucky Derby aboard Brokers Tip,
said he has worked himself into
fine riding condition. The Nation S
leading jockey in 1888 and 1941,
Meade was suspended in March of
1945 by the Mexican Racing Com
mission for using abusive language
in an argument with a steward.
