It was "Citation all the way" in

Baltimore began to palpitate over
the big show, but there waatalk
in the next breath about SalnUh

Eager to grasp at anything
which might be a threat to the
great Calumet colt, the turf fol
lowers seized upon exceptional
performances this week by Sal
magundi and Bovard.
Salmagundi, the only one of
five probable starters not on the
grounds at old Hilltop, demanded
notice on the basis of an impres
sive win in yesterday's Delaware
township purse at Garden State.
Lugging the Preakness weight
of 126 pounds. Salmagundi won
the six-furlong event in 1:10 35.
He continued on for a mile and an
eighth and his; time of 1:37 25
for the mile equalled the track
record.
Backers of Sylvester W. La
