BOWIE OPENS MEETING WITH CHARITY DAY! L 4 BOWIE, Md., Nov. 12. The racing season in Maryland moves into its final meeting of the year Monday when the change is made to Bowie, for fourteen days of sport. Both Monday and Tuesday are extra days conducted for the unemployment fund, the regular season beginning Wednesday, but for these two days Joseph McLennan has prepared an entertainment list of overnight races that assure first class entertainment. For a considerable time the Bowie meeting, both spring and fall, has been attracting many of the best horses and the coming meeting will be no exception to that rule. The stable reservations, long since exhausted, the number of stalls and many of the horsemen who will patronize the meeting have stabled their charges at Laurel, where it is a short van trip to the course. For the opening day the card is indeed an entertaining one and there are two fea-ures of importance. The mile and a sixteenth for three-year-olds and over and a three-year-old test of a mile and seventy yards. In the first named some of the good ones engaged are Preston M. Burchs Tambour, Mrs. John Hertz Valenciennes and Seven Veils, Monks Fox and Village Vamp. Then the three-year-old offering engages Mad Frump, Curacao, Mad Pursuit, Broadway Lights, Marmion and Polo Bar.
