FFICER, he's In again! Guy Bedwell, thought to have been safely removed from the limelight for a few weeks through the dissolution of his partnership and his discharge by Commander Rose, received not only monetary balm but took part of his share in horsefiesh. Some of that horseflesh will be seen in the opening event at Havre de Grace to-day. The filly, Stola A., whose dam, Marjorie A, Bedwell owned and raced for several years, was deemed part of hie share when the two split on Monday. In this manner Bedwell hopes to establish himself as a property owner, who would suffer if the Racing Com- mission withheld any privileges trom him, For the present he has retained ag trainer Louis Tauber, who is also one of the Commander Ross trainers, James A. Letane, a former Assistant United States Discrict attorney, has accepted the Racing Commissioner- ship to succeed Joseph P. Kennedy, who retired under the fire of political criticism for aligning himself with The Jockey Club on the proposition of the State's right to issue licenses to jockeys and trainers. Kennedy saw the propositiog! from the viewpoint of a practical sportsman, and was quickly brought to realize that State ntrol of the turf licensing bureau would work harmful effect ou racing. He voled ugainst it Since his resignation there has been a steady campaign to have the Gover hor appoint some one who would act with the minority commissioner and outvote the one member who is in favor of having The Jockey Club con- Unue In its power, seem to have been wasted, LUse the first statement inade by the new commissioner was: “I have accepted the place with an entirely open mind.

I hope to act for the good of racing and for the good of the State as a whole, I shall consider and study the entire situation before aligning myself on any aide in any of the points at issue.” The new commissioner will take up hia duties to-morrow. If he lives up to his promise it is doubtful if he will feel ready to participate in the dis- cussion of licensing for many weeks to come, for it is a subject so broad that about 90 per cent. of all Mary- landers interested in racing have been unable to grasp it after several months of study. Upon the new commissioner's de- cision will finally rest Bedwell's tu- ture asa trainer. His attorneys have THIS TIME LAST YEAR. Cavvy Cravath, batting as a pinch hitter in the eighth, hit Benton for a home run with two on bases, the Phils beating the Giants 3 to 0. Brooklyn gave its first exhibi- tion of Marathon strength by beating the Braves 1 to 0 in eleven innings with Cadore pitching against Oeschger, C.
