April 13 —The two-day meeting of the United Hunts Racing Association, which will usher in the metropolitan season this year, promises to be a more ambitious undertaking than any this organization has undertaken heretofore. A change has been made from the original dates assigned so tiiat the first day of racing will be held at Belmont Park April 28. followed by a second elay of the sport Tuesday, May 1. For the iiist time racing officials e f the Jockey Club tracks will preside over the amateur meeting. Mars tassidy will act as starter, C. Cornehlsen as judge, and Albert Burlen as clerk of the scales. The shift from Belmont Park terminal to the Belmont Park track will make the United Hunts meeting a far more attractive proposition. The spacious stands of the West-cheater Racing Association plant will afford ample accommodations fir a large crowd which may be expected to turn out on Satutv day. April L8. This will be the first opportunity afforded New Yorkers to see the thoroughbreds in action this year. The programs for the meeting were distributed among horsemen at the local tracks today and it is expected that a number of the horses now preparing for the regular season at the Long Island courses will be given an opportunity by their trainers to show their i wares in the United Hunts races.
