Delaware, O.,-A duet of $1,000
features that always have provid-
ed sensational miles during the
Delaware County Fair Grand Cir
cult again are on the slate for
the annual trotting and pacing
session here Tuesday through
Friday, September 1921.
These events are the Big Five
Trot and the Big Five Pace. Fas-
test time ever recorded at Della
ware was the 2.001z effort of Dus-
ty Hanover in 1910. This sterling
mile was registered in the Big
Five Pace. Tops in the speed de-
partment for trotters was record
ed in the 1916 Big Five Trot
when DR.. Spencer circled the two
laps in 2.01A. The former still is
the worlds race record for pac-
ers while the latter was the rec
ord in a race for trotters until a
year ago.
These races this year should
be no exception in producing
speed. Top trotting and pacing
speed mechants of this season are
in each event

ing groomed for a guard spot.
Jackson's speed and blocking abil-
ity lends itself readily to the
running guard position. The night
of Sept. 7th should telniiow we'll
he has adjusted to his new job.
Requirements at guard will be,
Jim Smith, Roger Counts. and
Eddie Naper all sophomores up
from the Junior High squad along
with Marvin Hughes and Allen
Wilson from last years reserves.
Center position appears to be
quite problem to the Red Raid
erS coaches. Ted Graves regular
center last season graduated.
John Steele his understudy upon
whom the coaches were depending
did not return to school. However
Don Kennedy rejoined the squad
after an absence of one year and
seems TO be the answer to the
center problem. Well over 20n
pounds with drive and spirit he
has the where-with-al to handle
the job and his attitude seems
to indicate that he intends to win
a starting spot on the eleven.
Pressing Kennedy ct center are
Jack Shoaf and David Davidson.
