I LATONIA TURF NOTES A meeting of the State Racing Commission has been called for Saturday by chairman Polk Laffoon, and the commissioners will gather in the Latonia club house for this special confab. Stuart Hunter was down from Versailles, Ky., for the day. Mr. Hunter was former secretary of the State Racing Commission. Don Leon, Levaal, Le Bruyere, Kitty Bruce, Lee Gold, Red Roamer and Leila Lee will be transferred to the R. W. Collins farm and later, with a number of yearlings, will be taken to Hialeah Park. J. G. Chinn has made application for stalls at New Orleans and may campaign the useful I Pass, Noelwood, Red Boot and others at the Crescent City meeting. Following the close here B. B. Rice will ship Artistry, Royal Treasure, North Vernon, Active American and Hoosier Prince to New Orleans. The Albert Luzader stable for the winter will include Lucky Dan, Miss Frisky, Princess Trash, Claret, Princess Peri and Prince Canbar. Luzader plans to get away Sunday for Jefferson Park. Burley Parke, J. H. McCoole, J. C. Shea, C. H. Neal and J. C. Cahn are making up a car getting away Sunday morning for New Orleans. Parke has three for Benny Creech; J. H. McCoole, five for Mrs. J. H. McCoole; J. C. Shea, two for J. T. Looney; Neal, two for J. J. Butler; and Cahn has the plater Blue Law for J. Sands.. Another car pulling out at the same time will take the F. H. Carpenter, E. B. Carpenter and Lone Star Stable horses. Other large stables are leaving Monday for the Crescent City. Octave Viau purchased Wood River from G. J. Mandle, and he goes to New Orleans with the Viau string. E. Perry Applegate added the fillies Madge De and Durb to the sale of horses in, training to be held in the Latonia paddock at noon Friday. Madge De is a winner here, and Durb has been placed in several engagements. The horses Mrs. E. L. Swikard has in training will feature this sale. In the latter vendue will be Hamilton, Duelist, Sun-fire, Last Second, Bobs Luck, Wayward Lad and others. Our Cherrycote and Orchestration, respectively owned by J. H. Downing and E. Bischoff, became probable starters in the Latonia Cup Handicap, Saturdays feature race, when the drenched track that prevailed carried with it the probability of soft going for Saturdays race. With the outlook for footing that would suit the two, their respective trainers had them out early this morning for long gallops through the mud. Our Cherrycote, three-year-old filly, was sent one mile and one-half in 2:59 breezing, and Orchestration one mile and three-eighths in 2:38 breezing. The latter accounted for his last two engagements here.
