He turn ed him out for a month, nursed him along, then brought him back to the , races with the result that he broke the track record at Lincoln Fields In his first start. Since then he has had a monopoly In winning the handicap stakes in the west. Grange Baseball Team Has Hectic Time During Game DAVENPORT, Wash., July 5.
