visitors worked a cross buck and mixed In a tackle around with Interference However the Red and White ath letes had fathomed the style after the first 80 minutes and It was prac tically ineffective In the last two periods the visitors being forced to resort to forward passes They were able to work three or four of them for successes but the gains were short ones Once Kazoo forced the locals to hold them on the 10 yard line Detroit started Its scoring early a march straight down the field trona the first kick off putting the ball over 'the visitors' goal line In four and a half minutes of play

Performances of the Year Racing There i and at Rockport Outlook for Sport Herd Is Bright BY RANK COOKE Most notable among the records established during the year are the I new ones for three year old trotters Peter Volo put the mark at 2:03 I where many thought it would stay a long while but Miss Bertha Dillon equalled that at Columbus Then at Lexington The Real Lady went aanile tn 2:03 against time displacing the old mark But Miss Bertha Dillon was not' through for at Atlanta where the track Is not quite up to Islington she won the second and deciding lieat of the Matron stake In 2:03 whlqh is a new race record for three year olds and quite the best of all It stands out over the 2:03 of The Real Lady for Mlsa Bertha Dillon had to race a worthy foeman and stand a long drive to garner her laurels The final victory for Miss Bertha Dillon Is In the nature of the Wternal fitness of things as we wishft 'them to be Her breeder and owner A Coxe of Paoli Pennsylvania la one of the leading lights of the sport A great athlete in his days 1 at Yale a man of almost unlimited means he is among the few of hisfeneration to take up the sport of his forebears The true sportsman was pleased'When Peter Thompson owned by Mr Coxe won the futurity also when Dillon Axworthy also of his stable beat the pick of the two year olds Greatest satisfaction the real reward comes however with victory on the part of qne which he bred No inke About Thia Miss Bertha Dillon has a right' to her speed It ever a trotter had Her (ire ulllon Axworthy won 2 year oJcl event on the local track add ed others to his list and took a race record of 2:11 Next year he low ered this to 2:10 but It was patent that this was not the true measureof his speed After that camo retire ment to the stud and It Is believed i his oldest colts now are three years old The dam of Miss Bertha Dillon Is Miss Bertha by Baronmore out of Marble a wonderful nick Mlsa Bertha was one of the best three year olds of her year won a heat In the futurity and a record of 2:1014 and It was remarked at the time that If Murphy or Cox had been up behind her Instead of Chandler whowent long miles she might have landed the stellar event Miss Bertha Dillon showed great I speed as a yearling and last year she took a two year old record or 1:10 She began winning early thia i season and has kept it up None ibad anything on her although Tne i Real Lady did beat her in the rlch I est events She came back and 'when the others were done she low ered the race record Her achievement adds to the Het 1 great sires for Dillon Axworthymust be counted among them Moko comes back through The Real Lady The Harvester Is up In the front i tow Peter the Great and San ran i cleco have been well represented so that no one stallion la hogging It 1 this year 1 Good Meeting nt Atlnnta Atlanta the end of the grand ctr cult had a first class meeting last week the sport keeping up to the 1 standard established at North Ran fdall in July It is a fair shipment but enough horses went to make the racing worth While and their i speed was quite unexpected The all aged feature went to Early Treams as quite the beet of the 2:08 or slower class trotters of the year He has beaten every good horse In his class and has taken many a hard drive to do it BacelH has developed Into a good trotter and will be a problem for the bunch In 1818 Brescia won In 2:08 and also Is in the first flight I of race horse trotters Detroit took part In the Atlanta laneetlng Mary Rosaline Parr beat the lauded Peter Nash and oth 'irs in 2:0514 This Is three wins in i as many weeks and it Is likely that she will be a contender tn the rich 8:08 classes next year Valentine I appears to have the hang nf the mare One of the surprises at Atlanta wan the victory of Ruth Malnsheet over Peter June In the two year old futurity the filly doing her second mile In 2:08 When the Michigan breeders' fu turity was raced al Marshall a few vears ago the pacing division went to the big Ally Juanita by Donald Wilkes They let up on her In her 4 year old form and that fall her owner desiring to sell the writerald she was the boat buy In the state for the who wanted a 1 good pacer She won in her 5 year old form nd thia vAr bKa did not come out until iate was beaten al the state fair but since then shs has won every start The climax camo at Rockport on Wednesday and Thurs day when she beat a field of 16 and went all of her heats around 2:13 i her opponent being George Hut I ton Oddly enobgh both of these horses are by stallions owned at I the Starkweather Stock arm of I Northville Sloan also of Northville i bred and owns Juanita Mr Sloan long has been a patron of the sport I but this is tho best one he has 1 hatched It would be no surprise to hear that he had sold her but the price will be double or three times what It was when the prom i Ise of the mare was lauded In these columns Horses that show up their fields as she did at the Cleveland track generally are In demand among those who are looking for Grand Circuit material In the same race third money went to College Boy driven by Wilson a prominent Detroit bus Iness tnsn so this neck of the woods got all of the money Racing Hard at Rockport Rockport and Cranwood arc about ns tough spots as a trainer can Pick for the wind up of his season Coming after Lexington they as aemble the half milers and a few

January 28 and continue four afternoons The affair of last year was enjoyable and the facing was good In spite of small fields but this time It la expected that a number of the Mich igan birds will be keyed up to do their bit on the slippery going Several of the trainers are plan ning to winter at Mt Clemens where arrangements for keeping the horses through the off season are quite the best of any
