The Grand Circuit is booked to open at North Randall, 0., with a fine card oi events Juno 30, while the Maine and New Brunswick will begin operating July 4 with a dou- bleheader. ‘

One section ci tho M. and N. B. organisation will race at l-loulton. Mo” While another part oi it will ' do its bit at Presque isle ior the racin! game.

For several weeks the horses have been working, and reports irom "Down. East" are to the effect that all have been showing iino iorm.

The acquisition by the Frederic- ton devotees oi the sport oi Ches- ley H._Seorcy undoubtedly has en- - hanced interest in the game in that community, and all are eager for the day to arrive when they will sec the western horse against John R. Brilliant the Grattane, Dan Hedgewood and tho other free-ior- ollers that wlill line up ior the word».

BETTER ELEMENT SUPPORTS cams

lntrest in harness racing never was at thc point it is today. The new element interested in the sport has elevated it far beyond the expectations oi its gratest de- votecs" Tho recent Bay State meet at WReadville war-an illustration oi this. Some oi the host people in New England attended, and it look- ed to us as li the days oi the "sharper," a name given to the old-time horseman, has passed. _ A Grand Circuit crowd waspros- ont on the opening day, and the sport furnished gave the thousands real thrills. it is too bad that local fans will have to await tho Grand Circuit meeting baiore they will have an- other opportunlty to see their favo- rite horses perform.

BIG RACES AT WINDSOR

The Bay State horses were at Avon last week. Things went over big in the Connecticut town ollt- slde oi Hartford, and now they will move to Windsor ior the big rncos that Allan Wilson. will stago.

He has two $10,000 races ior this weak, and the Sage Park track, which is located between Hartford and Springfield, is sure to be jamm- ed to the limit. oi its cailhcity.

Wilson is the only double-o track man who has arranged - lo g0 through according to schedule.

All the others fell by the way- side. They decided that whatever they contemplated staging was too blg an undertaking, so thy scratch- ed their big events.

As the Windsor track is access ibie by rail and motor. and con- venient to a dozon cities, where accommodation-s are excellent, the folks who desire to see the wonder- iul series that have been arransoii need not iostor the belief that they cannot obtain accunlmodaelons.
