Native Judge, Joe Johnson's bay telding, piloted by Kingsley won the 17 trot the feature event of the ‘irst day program of ‘the Bay State Short Ship meet here on Thursday. June Willls won the 2:20 pace in straight heats and Wesley R. took tirst money in the 2:19 trot, The crowd was good for the opening day and was estimated at nearly 1000, there seing 361 automobiles on'the grounds. With the exception of the 2:20 pace the racing was good and in the final heat of the 2:17 trot the Stands were brought up standing by the most spec- tacular finish seen on the Bay State Circuit this season. Native Judge in the first heat got away from the wire slightly in advance of the field and held the advantage for the entire mile with Benzol giving Johnson's horse a slight brush at the finish. In the sec- ond heat Native Judge went into the Jead with Peter Review, the local horse, in third position. After the half Peter Review crept past Josephine Sharp into second position. As the field swung into the stretch Peter Re- view came pounding on after the Johnson horse gaining at every step but was unable to pass although only a few feet separated them at the wire. The third heat which was the fea- ture heat of the afternoon started much the same as the others with Native Judge in the lead with Jo- sephine Sharp, Benzol and Peter Re- view on practically even - terms, the Johnson horse having the advantage of the pole. The field made the first qalf pretty well bunched and t}lrned imto the back stretch with Native Judge still in the lead but with Jo- sephine Sharp crowding the bay hard and Benzol and Peter Review only a short distance to the rear. As the horses swung into the stretch N tive Judge was leading the other three horses by only about.three feet. Whips were plied in the stretch and Piper's roan mare responded gallantly and forged up so that within a rod of the wide there was a scant foot between the horses. Benzol was creeping up »n the inside trying to make a break petween the fence and Native Judge. Peter Review was coming up on the sutside track and almost on even terms and gaining at every step. As the horses flashed under the wire there was a hushed silence and then a big roar from the crowd, Native Judge had won by a scant six inches and less than that separated the oth- s three horses. Kingsley who piloted Native Judge went to the stands as 8id Piper, driver of Josephine Shacp &0 pratest to the judges\ Kingsley claimed tnat Piper had crowded him an the lower turn and Piper made a claim that Kingsley had interfered with his horse. The hanpening took place out of sight of the judges and all the judges had to go by was the word of the two drivers, They reserv- »d their decision until Saturday. A field of corn planted in the enclosure of the track at the south turn is so nigh that the horses are mnot visible from the quarter-mile mark until they swing into the home stretch. This gives drivers ample opportunity for crowding or any other tricks of rac- ng without danger of being seen from the stand. 9 trot was won easily hy brown gelding, Wesley R. rite over the field. Remission cond money with Sure Mike, Martin’s horse from Willimantic in third place. The real race in this zvent was for second and third monevs with Providence horse having a lt- de the better of the argument. The 2:20 pace was a very tame af- fair and uninteresting. There were snly three starters in this event which was simply a procession in all three heats with June Willis out- slassing Camerton and Just Bingen.

NATIVE JUDGE TAKES FEATURE OF OPENNG DAY OF BAY STATE MEET EVENT AMERICAN WOMEN FIGHT AGAINST WORLD'S ATHLETES Paris, Aug. 10—(By the A. P.)— Sixty five young women, comprising the elite of the world’s feminine ath- letics, representing the United States, France, Bngland, Belgium, Switze land and Czecho-Slovakia have entel- ed for the international women's track and field meet at the Pershing Sta- dium August 20. Practically all the contestants are holders of records. ‘The seventeen entrants from the United States and Panama have al- ready begun their preliminary train- ing, and England's sixteen contes- tants, Belgium's twelve, Switzerland’s ‘eilht and Czecho-Slovakia’s_twelve, have informed the French feminine federation that they will reach Paris on the 17th, 11th, 18th and 16th of August, respectively. ‘While the American team is stronz as attested by former performances, the training records made by the Am- erican women since their arrival show that their task will be an arduous one and that if they win their victory will be by no means a walk-over. The' Swiss team is especially strong in javelin and weight throwing and in the running and standing jumps. 1t is .acknowledged as the best team of women athletes on the continent, with the possible exception of the Ger- mans. The Czech women are very speedy Czecho-Slovakia meet won the 80 and 200 metres races, the shotput and the running high and broad jumps. Victory in the 100 yard dash is gen- erally conceded to Miss Lines of En- ) gland, whose record in this event is tw-tifths of a second faster than any- one else entered in the meet. In the 400-yard relay race, the best Am- erican time is one minute 2-5 seconds while the French relay team has cov- ered the distance in 55 4-5 seconds. The French athletes, however, gen- erally show their best performances in the 1,000 metre race and the 100 vard hurdles. Miss Therese Laloz this afternoon paced by Andre, the Olym- pic French hurdler, equalled the world's record of 15 1-5 seconds for the 100 yard hurdles. Hereafter she will confine hereelf to light training. Mlle. Comte of France, in practicing today for the standing broad jump, covered two meters, 59 centimeters, which is only tne centimeters short of the world's record. Both these per- formances eclipse by far anything the Americans have shown in their pre- liminary training.

Kilowatts, handicapped sixty feet, rushed to the front and held his ad- vantage all the way. He was forced to step the last quarter in 28 3-4 sec- onds to beat David C., by a neck. E. Colorado which started sixty feet back was a nose behind David C., and the balance of the field was close up.

They also have beaten the Haverhill Profts, Webster Col- legians, Gardner, Maynard and other fast teams. 5 NUGGETS SLAUGHTER AVANTS IN EXHIBITION GAME The Nuggets won a one-sided exhibition game at the Fairgrounds on Thursday evening by an overwhelming score of 19 to 9, from the Avants. This game was not one of the series games as neither team had their regular star lineup. There was many fast plays and wonderful catches the most spectacular and surpris- ing being the one made by “Hippo” War- wick, playing third. Bill Anderson in right field played a wonderful ffy chasing game for the Avants and was kept busy a large part of the time. Tracey showed up well in his acrobatic fielding stunts that kept the crowd good natured, but failed to stop the slaughter. Ed Harris did some of the pitching and Ed had the Indian sign on the Avants with his smoke. Ed also hit well but his base stealing attempts were nipped in the bud by “Hippo” Warwick who is very fleet of foot. JACK FLYN 'S TEAM PLAYS AT BALTIC TONIGHT The Baltic A.
