: i • i ENTRIES NOW NUMBER 373 Fifteen Additional Nominations Received at Second Closing of American National Futurity. ARLINGTON HEIGHTS, 111., June 22.— Fifteen additional entries to the American National Futurity, to be run at Arlington Park September 8, were announced Thursday by racing secretary William Dondas of the American National Jockey Club. These were the nominations received for the second closing of the stake June 15, and added to the 358 entries received on the first closing date, March 1, swell the total number of nominations to 373. It cost owners 0 for each nomination on the first closing, while for the second closing the nomination fee was 00. The stake will be one of the most valuable two-year-old fixtures in the country. The second closing of a stake is not altogether unusual. At the time the original nominations were invited announcement was made of the second closing, which has just been completed. By this second closing the wisdom of the plan is apparent, the addition of a number of first rate two-year-olds to the list has been made possible, . including some that have shown enough in their racing since March 1 to warrant their nominations. Martin Finns Port Harlem and J. J. Coughlins Roguish Eye are notable examples. The former, by her three winning races at Churchill Downs, including the Debutante Stakes, proved to be the outstanding filly of that meeting, while Roguish Eye, by his success in the Bashford Manor Stakes, at the same track, demonstrated his quality. The addition of these crack juveniles to the nominations of the Arlington Park Futurity will add considerable to the interest in that stake. Following are the fifteen nominations to the stake received for its second closing: Mrs. A. Wallins My Girl. John J. Coughlins Roguish Eye and Eminence, R, P.
