As for the racing, it started inauspiciously, but carried on quite creditably. As stated before, "the dogs were very raw when first put inte training. The directors were over-generous in inviting all and sundry to witness the trials, so that hundreds of people who knew nothing about training dogs for racing went away with the impres sion that the Stadium dogs were a useless lot. This idea was renewed when the half-dozen, in the opening race started bickering before they had gone 30 yards and kept it up through the race, but the later events were run quite smoothly. The first winner was Mrs. Yih's Solario, but it was obvious he would have had a hard run had some of the others. paid more atten- tion to their work.
