A neck and neck struggle for the last eighth and down the stretch be tween Greenlaw and Creaserton, with Greenlaw going under the wire a head and neck to the good, was the feature of the last day of the Coos Bay July race meet Saturday. It was a three-quarters dash and while a good race, there was a feeling that Bobbie Wilson didn't get all there was in Creaserton out of him espe cially at tho finish. Creaserton took the lead after the first quarter but both lagged a trifle as they neared the quarter, Greenlaw taking the pole and forging a trifle ahead of Creaserton. Creaserton came in close on the outside with his nose just ahead of Greenlaw's shoulder on the last turn but somehow or other he didn't make the final spurt. It was a pretty finish, nevertheless, and compelled the entire crowd to hold their breath not a sound being audible throughout the grandstand for a moment. The races were a greater success than had even been hoped for by the most enthusiastic. The weather was almost ideal, aside from a fitful brisk breeze that Bwept the track. The crowd practically filled the en larged grandstand. Everything went off in good shape although the Intervals between events occasional ly became a little wearisome and made many long for the strains of a band, which undoubtedly would have been furnished had the management anticipated anywhere near the at tendance that favored them. The only unpleasant feature of the after noon's program was what was to have been a bucking mule exhibition but which proved to be more of an exhibition of brutality. The summaries: ILilf Mile Trotting. Belle (L.m. No.ble) 1 l Mack (J. W. Bennett) 2 2 Time 1:131:12 Tho result in this race would have been different probably If F. P. Nor ton had been able to prevent Mack breaking. Mack was brought here but a few weeks ago and bad not been rounded Into shape and went Into the air near tho five-eighths polo In both heats. In the last heat, Belle also broke on the last turn but quickly regained her stride. Three-Quarters Dnsh. Greenlaw (M. H. Nay) 1 Creaserton (John Herron) .... 2 Time 1:21. Thrcc-ElKhtlis Running.
