Cadegnn Glace Bay, lived up to his reputat- ion as he raced away with the free for all pace and marked up the fastest time of the night in the second heat.

The big race provided all the excitement fans could ask with every heat finding the judges call- ing for I photo to decide the win- ner. In the first heat nine horses came to the wire together in one of the greatest driving finishes seen here in years with five of them so close it took the camera to sep- arate them.

In the second heat it was the same thing with the first three so close no one could tell the winner till the photo decided. The third heat brought a surprise with Lucky Chief holding the lead most. of the way only to see Rusty Hanover get his nose in front in another photo finish.

The first heat of the 2.19 Price. First Division, was all Freddie Scott as he led from wire to wire. But; in the second Campbell's Buddy led all the way and at the t.hree-quart- Bl" pole had a three length lend. Then Freddie Scott came on with! it terrific burst of speed to eat. up. the distiilice and win by a short nose in R photo finish that had the fans standing on their seats.

In the Second Division of the 2.19 Pace Calumet Onward led the way in every heat but in tile stir- ring stretch battles Miss Dohnii Mae won twice and Esso took the middle heat. In the opening heat.
