What Price Breeding?

THE FORM holds no clue. I
must stumble through the abyss
of tears, torture, tribulation.
Groping blindly among the maze
of incomprehensible workouts,
jockey changes, handicapper's se-
lections and breeding (for after
all, how much fleeter will Little
Josie fly today knowing that she
is out of Bolingbroke from Twi-
light Tear by Bull Lea?)
But I must hurry. It is al-
ready the eighth race with but
one fleeting moment before the
pari-mutuel windows will close.
those same accursed windows
which have remained open long
enough this afternoon to devour
$18 which were to go for a car
payment.

Why Vesuvius? •

PERHAPS in my anguish, my
pain and tear-choked torment I
shall find the stone to be carried
upon the hill.
The flag is up. The bell rings.
The flag is down and the gate
swings open amid the roar of
hoofbeats, like the terrified
scream of the ancient Pompeiian
as lofty Vesuvius vomited death
in a torrent of scalding lava.
But now they are entering the
backstretch. Why does my joc-
1 key persist in remaining in the
sixth position? Surely he would
be closer to the leaf were he to
approach the leader who seems
now to be a good eight lengths
away.
But look! Now he is charging
through upon the rail! Now he is
fifth. And now fourth. And now
third. Arid now, as they approach
the stretch, lie is second, but a
single length away from truth
The Answer. (and at 12-1).

`Pluck the Leaf!'

AND NOW HE has reached the
leader. The door is his. All is
not hopeless. For Truth is Truth.
See how he charges, like the
bloodthirsty Egyption upon the
hapless sons of Jacob.
The Answer is in sight. (and
at 12-1 I shall be able to escort
Becky to the Fisher or even
Madison. Of late she has evi-
denced displeasure at our week-
ly sojourns to the Joy and Ava-
lon).
Ha! And now he is abreast of
the leader, who surely must be
exhausted from his early en-
deavors. Go past him! Go past
him!
Good Lord! Why do you choose
to race head and head, nose and
nose, stride for stride? Go past
him. I say! This is no time for
dramatics.
Speed past the finish line alone
and therein find the leaf, the
stone. the door.
