THE plans of the Jock
ey Club for the coming
races show that the
horses are deemed to be
about in trim, and that
the rivalry is .becoming
intense. On Wednesday
the pacing event will be
held over the full mile
and the running horses will be called upon
to win two out of three over yt mile
instead of as hitherto.
Hurd on Travellor beat Rex last Wed
nesday, and this has led to an argument
that will be settled to the tune of $100
next week. The girls will be called upon
to increase the distance of their ride and
a good many more entries are recorded.
THE DARK HORSE
The most interesting of these is for the
pace on Christmas. There is a large purse
for this event, and a string of fast horses
are being groomed for the occasion. But
the most interest is centered in the rumor
at the stable that a horse entered under
the simple name of X, owned by X, and
driven by X, is in fact one of the fastest
in the country if not in the world, and is
famous throughout the circuit. Person
ally we hope the mystery will not be
solved until this wonderful dark horse
either cleans up the crowd or else goes
back to his pristine obscurity.
STEEPLE CHASE
On Christmas day the Pinehurst Steeple
chase will be run for the first time this
year over the full course for $100 purse.
A brass band will lend a flavor of county
Fair week or the Grand Challenge to the
occasion, and Col. Swigert's Jockey Club
may then be said to be in full swing.
The program as far as made up for
both Wednesday and Christmas follow:

drove a DUNLOP nearly 350 yards
while winning the 1916 American
Professional Golf Championship. You
can not only drive farther but you can make
the Dunlop "stop" on the green far more
easily than the ordinary rubber-core hall.
And they last! Try Nos.
