The card consisted of six events, one of which contained so many en tries that it had to be run in two div isions, and included one over brush and two over timber, and three Hat races. It was pronounced by some of ihe promoters as the best meeting so far held by the Camden Hunt. Despite a dark and cloudy after noon several thousand persons lined . ..e rails to watch the events. Two ?a..-, antial additions have been mnde to the Springdale course, tending greatly to increase the ease of hand ling the events and crowds and the accuracy of judging the finishes. These include the construction of a substantial judges' stand and of an inside fence marking off the six fur long Hat track.

BY ORDER CITY COUNCIL. % Jan. 30. 1934 Washington's Birthday Plate (the feature), about two and a fourth miles over timber; the Mulberry, one mile on the flat; the Bloomsbury, about two and a fourth miles over timber, and the Cool Spring, six furlongs on the flat. 1 The Springdale course is so laid out that the entire course is visible from any point in or around the track ? -barring obstacles ? at all times, j Half a dozen professional bookmak ers, as usual, were in operation near the paddock, with blackboards or similar boards displaying the names of the horses and what small odds they offered, crying lustily, "Place your "wager with Canfield," or who have we ? "Here's a betting man. He's goinp: to place a wager," etc. All of which added to the> racy color of , the event. I Each race had its own particular | thrill from one viewpoint or another, but the closest finish was that in the fourth event, the flat mile, Mulberry, Noel Lning pushing in Mrs. T. E. Proctor JI's Star Wink a bare nose ahead of Mrs. T. H. Somervillp's Britunnicus II, ridden by Carroll K. Bassett. So close were the two mounts together as they came down the streteh together, neck and neck, that the riders did not know which had had a nose out in front as they crossed the finish line. The time wan 1 minute, 5:? I f) seconds. The Kloomsbury, two and a quarter miles over timber, was the only race of the ttfternoon which was not fin ished by all starters, Mrs. Proctor'R Charioteer and Mrs. Somerville's El Key Keno losing their riders at the fourth from tho last jump. No horse nor rider was hurt, and Charioteer came home in fourth place riderless, while, according to popular rumor, El Key Keno was la?t seen headed up the Liberty Hill road. This also was a beautiful race, be inn: won hy a son of the great Man O-War, War Eagle, owned and ridden by Kandolph I>ufTey. The Eagle took the lead from the start and made his betrt time botween jumps, slowing down for the leaps, allowing Hia i)ear competitors to cM'so daylight behind i him, only to break ahead after the hurdle. Toward the end, however, he seemed to take the barriers more in his stride and floated down the stretch three lengths ahead of Camp bell Weir's Soldier's Fate, J. E. Ryan up, and Mrs. Somerville's Oliver C., ridden by Noel Laing, who was listed as the rider of three mounts, all of which started. The time was 4 min utes, 39 seconds. " The Kamchatka, opening the ticket, ' was won by Mrs,"* Somerville's three year-old chestnut marc, Sable Muff, with the energetic Carroll Bassett in the snddle. Kirby Tupper, a native, brought David R. Williams' eight year-old chestnut mare, Eva Leo, home in second money, while E. Jen nings, on Mrs. C. P. Bassett's Abolair, was third. The time was 24 2-5 sec onds. j The second event, tho Cherokee, ' was another interesting run, the real race being for second and thitd places. Noel Laing was again the winning rider on Mrs. Verner Reed's Our Friend, by a couple of lengths, ' whilo Carroll K. Bassett, on Itam'a j Head Stables' Khyber Pass and Ray I Woolfe on Ward A. Wickwire's For- | bis, battled for second honors, Bas sett* pushing his mount across a rival. The ftrst section of the Cool Spring was won, amid wild acclaim from his supporters, by Peter B., owned and ridden by G. II. (Pete) Bostwick, who rode in the Grand National, in Eng land, last year. B. A. Tomkins' Cym polim, was second and Friar's Hope, owned and ridden by J. North Fletch er, was third. The time was 1:2(5 3-5. In the second section Carroll Bas sett came in for his second victory of tho afternoon on Samuel S. Sands' Don Pedro, a son of Spanish Prince II. Mrs. J. E, Ryan's Aughrim Boy, with Raymond Woolfe up, wns sec ond and Mrs. Geraldyn Redmond's O, ridden by Charles R. White, third. Tho time was 1 minute, 24 2-5 sec onds, despite a long delayed start. Among tho interested and honored . spectators was Senator Ellison D. Smith, who posed for a Charlotte ' newspaper photographer with Thomas B. Pearce, candidate for governor, the latter remarking Jokingly that it might elect him but might- defeat Senator Smith. ^ BEER BOTTLE FULL OF LAWN mower Oil for 15c at Jenkins Re pair Shop.
