1t was like an April afternoon

toners at home.
Although the track was fast
and weather comparatively
halmy. attendance dropped to T.
sic and betting skidded to a
weak $585.l42 to put Bowie tenn
porarily behind its 1856 spring"
meeting by s97,783. The lowest
one-day handle at Bowie last
year was $690,837.
In the Bowie area. snow fell
from $3.50 to II am. but it melt
ed as it hit the ground and the
sun was shining by noon. But
the weather at northern points
as we'll as in the Washington
and Baltimore areas spoiled the
day.
Adding to Bowie's difficulties
today was a lackluster program.
Although there are plenty OF
horses in Maryland. many of
them need another week or two
before they are At to race. Rae
