ISPEEOWAY PEOPLE TO 1 TURN RACE MEET OVER I TO CHARITY THIS FALL Some Organization Will Be Given Right to Stage Event and Receive Profits, j. HIGH CLASS NAGS COMING SCaadlngr Eartmn of HortfiwMt Tak f Up A Watbr Kan Bgiu to Adopt Balmy Attitnda. A - By J. D. Olson. J- ,Ta hold a monster race meeting: and iifair In Portland this fall, the entire t '.profits to go to charity, is the plan I announced by the Rose City Speedway I association. It is planned by th as- eoclatlon to turn the meet over to some' organization, such as the Mutts, "which may handle the money, paying the expenses and use the profits as deemed best. I ' . Th attractions claimed for the open- ihg week, beginning August 2, are t I high class, and will attract hue crowds, it is thought. Carnival com i panies, which show over the northwest I during the fall, will come to Portland, i and, together with a high class pro- gram of harness and running events, i -will no doubt make up a program ' " whicU will excell anything ever held I here, even in the palmiest days. f Should this plan go through success- i i fully, and there is little doubt but that f it will, tha fair will be held each. year : Land the profits used for charitable, I purposes. I Tt Leading horsemen from all parts of I I the northwest 'are in correspondence f with the Speedway association, and I high class racing stock will be seen I In action in Portland this fall from " Vcncouver, B. C, Montana, Idaho, t .Washington and all parts of Oregon. A the Portland fair is on the nortii $ west fair circuit officially this year there is little doubt but that the 1915 f. meeting and fair will be the most suc I cessful ever held in the Rose city. Word has been received from Baker, Or., from C. W. Todd, -well known ? hors owner and trainer, that he has fc large stable of trotters and pacers, j as well as some high class thorough- I I bred in, early spring training. Among them are Haltamont, a pacer which ' 'I holds the Oregon record of 2:054, Bon- ! I file Antrim, Aldine, Maurice S. and Sal- ' ly Mint, the latter heading his string . at thoroughbreds. Trainer Todd writes I i that all of his horsesare in good early i f eaon trim and he expects to have a f tanner year. " latedford Korees Working. i i- Medford has several prominent horse - men who report that their pacers and trotters will be in, good shape for the , spring opening of the circuit in this city. Taylor . brothers of that city have a large stable headed by the fast i pacer King Seal,, who has been seen in actipn at a number of meetings in this i city. Georg Swlscher. another Med t ford horseman, has In training a fine ) stable, among his best prospects being ) Halite B, a pacing filly owned by Mrs. C. W. Watts. f , Fred Brooker of Vancouver. Wash . Is another trainer who is beginning ! a w iu year to gei nis staDia in- I shape, and he expects that a number , of fast trotters and pacers, which he 'purchased last fali. will be the big, I money winners of the season. j At the Rose Vista track, east of I Multnomah, Charles Gholson ls Con-1 s ditlonlng a large string of classy s steppers, headed by St. Elmo, a pacer, I that has world of speed. He is also training Fred T. Merrill's string, which i includes Red Hal, 2:10, the pacer1 j that made such a creditable showing ,at the last fall meeting. A Hal B J filly owned by Dr. Creamer also shows . -: Considerable promise. j i At the Rose City Speedway in Rose I I City Park are a number, of well known" trainers. Including John Sawyer with : a classy stable; Harry Squires, whoae I stable is headed by a trotter called f Dean Swift, by Aimadon. with a record ! if 2:08. - This trotter was recently I brought down from Seattle, and reports are that Dean Swift will, if in proper condition, be a contender amon th 1 j fast trotters of the coast. Woodcock Sas Jkmntm Strfmr. 4 Fred ' Woodcock, another Portland trainer, has a large string under his1 , eye. Among the most prominent are Hal Paxton and Hal Norte, both owned I bj Weiss Bros, of this city. This pair, i ' Hl Bs created somewhat of a sen ,? satlon on the circuit last .season and j even a better year Is looked for dur- ! JL'S the coming campaign by Trainer Woodcock. A 3-year-old Hal-B pacer ' -- In this - stable" looks verr cwe tn : many horsemen who have seen the side : wheeler perform.
