The Fitting Tribute to Skill
A SILVER cup to have and to hold through all
the years an everlasting reminder of great
triumphs won.
In athletic sports, as in other forms of competition,
silver is the accepted standard for ackowledgement
of deeds well done.
Whether in the trophy room of a club, or in the
dining room or den of a well-appointed home, it is
the treasured symbol of permanency, good taste,
and refinement.

SPIRITED RACING AT
JOCKEY CLUB MEETING
Drivers and Jockeys Fined for
Rough Riding
The Stewards of the Jockey Club were
quick to take, cognizance of rough riding
and otherwise undesirable tactics on the
part of several drivers and jockeys at
last week's race meeting, and meted out
fines and suspensions in such quantities
that repetitions should not be experienced
in the future.
The first of the offenders was driver
Moore, who had won the first two heats
of the Class A. trot with Cachato Watts
and who had the third heat apparently
cinched, but he steered his mount very
wide in the stretch run which caused
considerable crowding among the other
starters and was fined and set back.
Driver Gray was fined for crowding
long dash to win first money. His Nibbs;
lasted long enough in the chase over the
short six-jump steeple course to win
that event from Russian Pinion and Old
Gibb.
After being pinched off by driver
Gray, who was driving Tom H. in the
Class B. pace, Jones Gentry managed to
win the race in successive heats. Bingen
Gentry finished second and Tom H. was.
last in the field of three. Cachato Watts
