Hall's bay gelding Don Cecilian winning the Ar- gus cup. The trophy was hung up for the winner in the pacing division in the point summary at the close of the season. Don Cecilian scored twenty- one point: Don Cecilian made the fastest time of the season for a single heat and won the halter donated by Billy Silva. The closest contender for the prize won by Don Cecilian finished nine points behind him. While the proper- ty of Mr. White, Don Cecilian was re- Jim | garded as the fastest pacer in this sec- tion, and lived up to the reputation by winning most of his starts, rarely fin- ishing below second place.
