BOBBIE KEAN A BAD ACTOR. Bobbie Kean is again on the schooling list. His bad behavior at the post in the race which resulted in his dead heat with Lotus Eater at Brighton Beacli on Tuesday caused starter Dade to issue the order. This is how the Morning Telegraph tells about it: "Bobbie Kean has tried before to demonstrate that lie was the equal of Proper, Halifax and the others who hold the bad actors record, but yesterday lie hung up a new figure. He had the middle position and he tried to kick the starter and one-half of the horses Into the infield and the other half into the field stand. He certainly held the center of the stage and would not turn around to the barrier. He has a particularly nasty way, when the assistant starter has him almost turned facing the barrier, of whirling sharply in the opposite direction until his tall Is draped gracefully over the network."
