Mansfield Park, a horse that Daly bred himself, and was hardly known to most followers of amateur racing, was respon sible for most of the early ex citement when he opened a long lead. They said the horse would come back but the farther he' went the more he increased his lead. Then he lost Fred Powers Jr., his rider, between the six teenth and seventeenth fences. Powers had lost one of his stir rups, and was unable to hang on. What might have happened if the rider had been able to stay aboard his mount is one of those questions that inevitably follow in the wake of a timber race. While Mansfield Park was so far out in front things were happening behind him. Faction Fighter, with which Paul Mellon hoped to lift the cup, went down at the twelfth jump, and Catraz, which raced in Streett’s colors, tumbled at the nineteenth. Then Sweet Home swung into con tention after Postman Home Mrs. James C. Clark’s Home went into the lead following Mansfield Park’s spill. Only three of the original six were left now, but the excitement was to continue. Home Sweet Home swung up to take the lead froni Postman Home and coming into the last jump the latter moved up again to take a slight advantage. Home Sweet Home was dead tired now and went down with a smash at the last fence, leaving the field to Postman Home, and Carleton H. Palmer’s Gil Bias, which finish ed second, defeated five lengths. Postman Home was the sec ond choice to the heavily back ed Faction Fighter and paid off at 2 to 1. He made the trip in 7:08. Mansfield Park, like Home Sweet Home, was an out sider and it was his fast early pace th&t accounted 1 for the l good time for the course. Home I Sweet Home was so tired when he fell that he lay on the ground, taking it easy for sev eral minutes, and then stepped up and walked away. Flying Over Brush While the timber race held the place of honor on the pro gram, the events that provided the best racing for the fash ionable crowd of 10,000 were the gallops over brush. Samuel Wolf’s Little Hurd was a sur prise winner of the brush hand icap when he moved up in the last quarter of a mile to nip Mrs. Lewis A. Park’s Crooked Wood, Mrs. Esther du Pont Weir’s The Dook 2nd, and F. Steeplechase Summaries (Continued from page one) THE CROATAN STEEPLECHASE About Two Miles Over Brush Fay Cottage, 157 (J.

The only ham on the market smoked with corn cobs and hickory wood. For sale by H. A. Lewis or H. S. Knowles, Southern Pines. Ambrose Clark's La Touche, a horse that was brought over | from England last year and may win good races here. La Touche dropped back to fourth after looking like a winner com ing around the last turn. He will improve, and may develop into a factor in races at Bel mont Park and other important steeplechase centers. It was a disappointment for Clark to see La Touche defeat ed, but he and H. Grainger Gaither, his trainer, at least had the satisfaction of seeing Fay Cottage, another English jumper, win the first brush race. The Clark stable expected to win this gallop with Horner Wood, but when that fellow went down after making one turn of the field Fay Cottage moved up from the rear and took command. Governor Clyde R. Hoey of North Carolina headed the crowd and made the presenta tion of the SandhiHs Cup. There were many of prominence on the turf in Hie crqwd, in cluding Mr. and Mrs. F. Am brose Clark, Howard Maxwell, W. B. Miller, Dr. Hugh Parsh all, the harness racing man; Jack Healey, Pete and Dunbar Bostwick, Billy Post and Louis Stoddard Jr. Algernon Craven, Herry D. Kirkover, S. A. W. Baltazzi and F. Wallis Arm strong were in the stewards’ stand. Freddie Slate suffered a frac ture of the collar bone when he went down with Louis Stod dard Jr’s Danny Byrne in the second race. It looked as though Danny Byrne fell over ftorner Wood, but Slate said the horse tumbled, and then rolled over Horner Wood. The two were close together when all of this happened, but neither was the cause of the other falling. Jack Rich, who won with Fay Cottage, had reason to feel elated. He had never won a race before. Rich had an op portunity to ride because Francis Bellhouse, contract rider for the Clark stable, had a fall while schooling last week and was not ready for action. Pete Bostwick said that the entry for the meet at Aiken next week will be top class. There will be trotting races at Aiken as well as the events for the runners and jumpers. Mrs. Willing Bromley’s Plant ers’ Punch, a well known fellow in hurdle races at Aqueduct, won the run of one mile on the flat that closed the sport. Rich ard K. Mellon’s Escape 3rd, the favorite, was second. ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla., March 16.—Horton Smith and Marvin Ward will meet Henry Poe andj Harold Mandley Sunday in the 36 hole final of the annual match play amateur-pro tourna ment here. SLUGGISH SLUGGERS OUSTED FROM RING BY IRATE OFFICIAL Myron Barrett, match maker at the Amusement Center, jump ed into the ring last night dur ing what was scheduled to be the wind-up and “knocked out” both of the artists with some stinging verbal blows to the ears. Mr. Barrett told the two big colored boxers that they better go back to cooking or caddying, that their exhibition was “ter rible.” He put on a substitute final in which Demus Jones knocked out Royaster McCall in the second round. It was a technical K. 0. Last night’s effort - will be Mr. Barrett’s last in the Amuse ment Center. The seating ca pacity is too small to handle a t large enough audience to pay for good fights, and the local talent has been found wanting. The wind-up boys, who have been taking a percentage of the gate, have taken one look at the crowd and evidently ad judged it worth one invisible punch. There were four prelims last night. Paul Bigelow, Hamlet, won a decision over James Arthur, Hanover, Pa. Marvin Smith, Pinehurst, won over Jack Cur rin, Southern Pines.. Red Ken nedy, Pinehurst, won over Le land Daniels, Southern Pines, and David Wright Jr., won over Chico Bland. I Wolves Club The sixth annual banquet of the Wolves Club held last night at the Berkshire Hotel brought together a group of thirty mem bers and guests, all enthusias tic bridge players, who honored Eberhard Faber, their president, upon his recent 81st birthday anniversary, enjoyed a splendid dinner and concluded the eve ning with bridge. The feature was the reading by Donald Parson of a poem dedicated to Mr. Faber. Mr. Parson, some time ago wrote a very excellent poem dedicated to The Wolves Club, and this was printed on the menus. The members and guests at tending were George Betts, E. C. Keating, E. S. Blodgett, Cap tain Roberts, Dr. S. H. Blodgett, H. D. Chater, Robert Clapp, Bob Finney, Eberhard Faber, John M. Schmaltz, H.

Mr. Parson’s poem to The Wolves: ARCTIC EXPLORER AT FORUM ON THURSDAY The Pinehurst Forum, on Thursday evening, March 21st, will present Capt. Robert A. Bartlett, veteran Arctic explor er and sea-faring yam-spinner, in a. program entitled “North with Bob Bartlett.” For the first time in color, motion pictures of the Arctic will be shown. The eerie light of the midnight suny produces a most unusual hue, which adds greatly ~ to the beauty of the film. Capt. Bartlett, yho has been commuting to the Arctic ever since Admiral Peary’s first ex pedition, is a familiar and es teemed' figure to many Pine hurst people. Dr. DeWitt B. Bettleton, whose house guest “Cap’n Bob” will be, recalls with pleasure the northern voyage he once made with him aboard the “Ma riette,” which sailed from Bos ton. , PINEHURST COUNTRY CLUB GRILL Will Serve a Daily Buffet from Satur day, March 16th, Through the North and South Open Week. $1.25 Pinehurst, North Carolina You can buy hand made candle wick bed spreads of unbleached muslin, and then dye them to match y0ur drapes.
