Frank Eerslake, Grover McDonald and George Brown were in McMinn ville last week attending the races in the Walnut City rink. Mr. Brown met Chester Gaunt, of McMinnville, in a skating race Friday night and was defeated, Gaunt being out run on the following night by Jesse Little, of Portland. Mr. Eerslake has arranged for a three days' series of entertainments, including racing and exhibitions of trick and fanclng skating, to be held In the Colosseum rink in Dallas, Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights of this week. At that time Brown will have an opportunity of meeting Gaunt in another, race and on Saturday night the winners in the events of the two previous nights will compete. Saturday night's races will probably be the fastest and most exciting ever held on the local floor. In addition to the racing features Eruse aDd Little, of Portland, will give excellent exhibitions of trick skating and acrobatic work on skates. This will be the first exhibition of its kind held In the local rink and will no doubt be looked forward to with great interest by all those who are interested in fine skating.
