j LESTER YEAGER BUSY j AND SUCCESSFUL MANAGER OF DADE PARK j .---- 4 HENDERSON, Ky., Aug. 23 Lester Yea-ger, associate manager of the Dade Pake Jockey Club, is daily complimented on the orderly way the automobile traffic i3 handled to and from the track. With the largest crowds in the history of the course present daily and the public relying solely on the highways, it became quite a problem getting crowds to and from the track. However, manager Yeager employed a sufficient crew and the grounds are usually cleared not later than thirty minutes after the last race. Mr. Yeager has managed the Dade Park Jockey Club since James C. Ellis purchased the plant eight years ago, and, although it was his first attempt at race track management, he has shown ability at his new task. He is in complete charge of the concessions in addition to his numerous other duties.
