This young tiwo - year - old mare became a world’s cham- pion trotting filly when she took a record of 2.00 at Lexington. and she had formerly won in 2.05 2-5 over a half - mile track. During her brief career, in which she established world‘s re‘ cords shown above on mile and half - mile tracks, she had won the. Hanover Shoe Filly Stake eaSily in 2.03 4-5 and back in 2.00. This performance establish- ed four world's records, and was the first time in harness racing that a two - year - old trotter ever stepped in two minutes in a race. At Delaware. Ohio, she won the Walnut Hall Farm Breeders Filly Stake in 2.05 3-5 and 2.05 2-5. Delaware is a half - mile oval. Among other stake records was the winning of the Hoosier Futurity at Indianapolis. and the S. A. Camp Memorial at Lexing- ton. After she won at Lexington, her owner Byron Kuth. Cleve- land, Ohio, reifused offers up to $110,000 for her. Penhaps the blow of her death was felt the most keenly by her youthful trainer and driver, John- ny. Patterson, whose kindness. lovmg care. and the confidence she had in him contributed great- ly to making her a champion. BAD FIRE One of the most destructive fir- es that has ever hit a harness track occurred at Grandview. Ohio. early in December, when the grandstand and clubhouse were destroyed. The loss is set at close to a million dollars, with insurance coverage of $600,000. The track president is Walter Michael. one of the most pro- minent horsemen in Ohio, who is largely responsible for the build- ing of thecluibhouse and grand- stand and who is the biggest shareholder in the track.

RANGERS CONFUSED The strike is causing more con- fusion than financial damage to New York Rangers of the Na- tional Hockey League. team pub- licist Herb Goren said. “The Rangers have played De- troit and Chicago in the last week and i guess we were about 1.000 off in attendance in each game. But it could also be because the team hasn't been winning. “We‘re. being swamped with requests for schedules. scores and other hockey information.
