MR. RALPH'S WONDERFUL RECORD: ́ON LOCAL RACE COURSE

(By "CAPTAIN FOSTER").

Extra Race

The feature of the Eleventh Meeting held last Saturday was the failure of the thirteen lucky punters in their solection for the second leg of the Daily Double Event and, as a result, the pool amounting to $3.656.40 will be included in the next Double Event at the com- ing Meeting which will be staged on the 16th November. This was the second occasion within six months that punters failed to back the winner for the second leg and the pool will no doubt induce more punters to try their luck! at the next Meeting.

As was predicted, picking the wis ner the first leg of the Daily Double was not an cany job and it was with much regroi that none of my readers had followed my selection. for the second leg. I was very sweet on Beginner's Luck and tipped him to pass the post first with The Deemster and Blacksmith to follow. The result of the race was: Beginner's Tack. Blacksmith, and the Beemster. How

ENID WILSON PARTNERSHIP WINS IN THIRTY-SEVEN SHOTS

(By PETER. LAWLESS)

London, Oct. 15. THE WORPLESDON Open Scratch Mixed Foursomes tournament began on a quiet note. The incomparable Miss Wethered was not there. The weather was mild and overcast. Perfect greens, so close as to be far faster than the cursory glance suggested, and fairways in glorious order, left little excuse for those who failed. The sur- prises, too, were mild for the most part, more poignant and unexpected in the minds of the losers than of the spectator, prepared at any given moment to nominate the ultimate winners. Above all, the attendance of dogs had been dis- couraged; that wonderful assembly of dogs whose obvious enjoyment of this annual gathering has ever been more pronounced than that of the principals and their followers.
