A SWirling snowstorm forced
Bowie to call off its weekend
racing program yesterday when
the jockeys refused to ride in
the sixth race.
Despite predictions that a
heavy snowstorm was bearing
down on the area. a crowd of
1929 fans turned out for
the second program of Mary

which got off to a booming
start yesterday.

Jockey Fred Kratz, a men,
Der of the National Jockeys
Guild who rode in the fifth
race. said a majority Of the
riders voted to quit for the day.
The first five races were run
off without incident, despite
the snow which started falling
at 1915 pm.
A total of 1894, 1897 was wa
gered on the five events.
Another $116,841 already was
bet on the sixth race when the
announcement came that rae
ing was over for the day.
Crowd Good Natured
The large crowd in the glass
enclosed stands, heated to So
degrees, took the cancellation
good naturedly and Immediate
ly began collecting refunds Of
bets made on the sixth race.
The fans had suspected that
racing might be discontinued
when the horses failed to APP
pear for the usual post parade,
seven or eight minutes before
! the sixth race, scheduled to go
at 1888 pm.
John F. Loome, Bowie's gen.
eral manager. made the fol-

Weather prediction is for

Rather than risk injury to

marooned at the track.
Parking Lot Clears
This time, however. fans were
able to get their cars moving
off the parking lots and on the
highways. Access roads had
been sanded and sailed by high
way workers who had advance
warning of the storm.
While the parking lots were
emptied in good order, those
who had driven to the track
met with long delays on the &C
cess roads to the main high
ways. Several estimated that
it took an hour and a half to
get from the Bowie parking lot
to the Washington-B Baltimore
Parkway. Traff1c seemed to
move just as slowly on the other
side roads.
About an inch of snow had
accumulated when the races
