Sundays work includes a conference with the associations legislative committee. Charles Krutekoff, Albert Sabbath and He-bert Q. Shimp, going over details with resident manager, Charles T. Kssig. and making the first definite assignment of stalls with Ben Miller, who will look after that department. A force is at work spraying the stalls inside and out, so as to make them perfectly sanitary. The stalls will be thrown open to horsemen June 1, but no horses will be stabled there until that time. The management wishes to caution horsemen that it has no interest direct or indirect in the Aurora meeting, and the as-■t signment of stalls there does not carry an assignment at Hawthorne, unless specifically made. A great many of the Hawthorne stalls are being held for those who are to race at Latonia and Belmont Park and while every effort will be made to take care of everyone, there may be some disappointments. 1
