MOST IN INTEREST INDIANAPOLIS. Ind.. Sept. 1.— As the State Fair gets near, it becomes practically positive that again the Grand Circuit races connected with it wil Ihold the center of the state as the sensational harness racing of the west this year. The entry list, the racing of late, and the form of the horses that are named to race here areall evidence of the veritable deluge of speed that is to come during the duration of the six days of racing on the big oval at Indianapolis. The races start Saturday, Sept. 4, the- opening day of the fair. Foremost in point of interest, probably, and surely in value of its purse, is the famous Fox Stake for two-year-old pacers, which has for several years been of the highest value of any American event for the pacing kind. In this great annual, there are such stars as Arletan, Chief Counsel, The Widower, Rebby Dale, Kate C. Grattan and a number of others that have been showing decided class through the early racing of the summer, and horsemen are looking for the greatest battle for the Fox prize that has ever been staged in its long and honorable history. In the three divisions of the Horseman Futurity, the' very best of the respective divisions are named to contend for the famous Horseman prize, started back in the early days of the present centuiy and carried on with no cessation, through annual races of the three divisions— three-year-old trotters, three-year-old pacers, and two-year-old trotters. Great names are listed with the hon orable distinction of being victors in the Horseman events, and the chances are excellent that there will be others added through the trio of races set for the week of Labor Day at the big Indiana Fair. In addition to thes« the program is replete with such noted racing annuals as the L. S. Ayres Trot, the Governor’s Trot, the Claypool Hotel Pace, the Mayor’s Pace, the Cedar Hill three-year old trot, the Hook Drug Company three-year-old Pace, and others that have become familiar in the annual listings of the great Grand Circuit cards that are raced in the heart of Indiana. On Saturday, September 4, the program starts with a trio of races, all of which are for horses that have not been raced on mile tracks previously, and the number of entrants in these races indicates great sport of the half-holiday program that will start the sport going at this year’s fair. On Monday, the Labor Day card is a sparkler, with the card of all star races, and from then to the end of the fair the program is one that challenges the best that will be shown anywhere else in the land, either on Grand Circuit or other tracks.

DELLINGER PAL KILLED MOORESVILLE. Ind., Sept. 1.— (UP) Edward Singleton, partner in crime of iho late notorious John Dillingcr, was killed by a southbound Pennsylvania railroad freight train near here late last night. Singleton, 45 years old and a WPA worker, was sitting on the railroad track eating a lunch when the train ground him to death. It was far less spectacular than the demise of Dillinger in 1934. The train crew was unaware of the accident and did not halt the train.

This is a criticism on the business acumen of the Greencastle city administration which comes from Mayor Zois himself, and he laughs as he tells it. Sometime ago, the city sold the McCalman contracting company, which has one ot the contracts for rebuilding the National road in Putnam county, and the sod from approximately thirty acres of land in the former airport for about $30 per acre, or, to be exact, they sold 160,000 square yards of sod for 7 cents a yard. And it seems a good thing to do, at the time. Now comes the information that the same contractor boughtt fifty acres of sod from the present owner of the former Robe farm, not far from the airport, for $50 per acre. Which also seems a good dfal—even more, per acre, than the land cost its present owner, it is said. INDIANAPOLIS LIVESTOCK Hog receipts 4.500; holdovers 147. Market steady to 10c lower.
