HIGHLIGHTS on SPORTS
By "Hardy" Humes
Lightning in Harness
It was in August 1935 that
Greyhound, greatest of the na
tion's three-year-old trotters
won the $33,000
j "Hambclto
r nlan"
eepted classic of
harness horse
racing In Amer
• lea. The race
was run on tli^
I/, famous Good
' Time mile track
nt Goshen, N.
before a huge crowd of 40,000
enthusiastic "harness" fans.
Greyhound, a 1 to 2 favorite,
swept through the event in two
straight heats. Driven by Sep
Palin of Indianapolis, Greyhound
came up from last in a field of
nine to chalk up the fastest
time (2:02 1/2) run by a winner
of the event since the first Ham
beltonian in 1926, nine years
previously. In the 2nd heat.
Greyhound was in 2nd place as
he came into the stretch, and
then, kicking up a cloud of dust,
raced past tbo leading horse
"Warwell Worthy," and thun
dered across the finish line 2
lengths ahead. His time for this
2nd heat was 2:02 3/4. Winning
two heats in a row eliminated
the need for the 3rd heat and
Greyhound added the winner's
purse of $18,670 to his record.
Ton wfll "eliminate" the need
of looking for the right tools
when you come to Hnraes Hard
ware Store. Onr Stanley tools
are Jnst one of the many well
known brands of tools we carry.
Whatever the Job, we have the
tools to do the job better and
easier.
