in the story of Captain Aubrey 2079': which appeared in the Back stretch recently we were in error when we stated that Bill Sharon 2.0416 had never beaten Peter the Brewer. Our friend who sent us the information about Captain Aubrey informs us that Bill Sharen won from Peter the Brewer at Phila- delphia on August 17. 1922 in straight heats. time around 2.05 or 2.06. and it was Bill Sharon that forced Peter the Brewer to his mark of 2.029: in the first heat of the famous Transylvania Stake trot on October 5. 1922 at Lexing- ton. There were nine starters and Bill was on the extreme outside on tho getaway and was at Peter's pad at the finish. We are grateful for this information as it was not avail- able in our records.

Intricate routines of group, and solo figure skating numbers pre- dominated but the program was well spiced with the always unins- ing and often hilarious antics of, four mirthprovoking "hobo" clowns who drew rounds of laughter from the spectators.
