PAWTUCKET, R. I., May 5— The management of Narragansett Park has arranged a double-barreled feature for the entertainment of their great throng of patrons here tomorrow afternoon, with the running of the Jeanne DArc Stakes, for two-year-old fillies, and a handicap christened the Warren, which admits horses of three-year-olds and upward, to compete over three-quarters of a mile. Ten have been named in the Jeanne DArc, which is exclusively for fillies over four and a half furlongs. Among the ten fillies named overnight, J. T. Taylors Planetoid, a highly regarded Kentucky miss, will make her bow to the New England public. As the field stacks up she will have as her main rivals R. L. Gerrys recent local winner, Pathos, and Weston Adams Conservative, which was short on the occasion of her recent start over the local track. Much improvement is expected by her connections and with fair luck promises to press the best ones throughout the entire race. The stake has attracted four maidens, namely Fairbanks and Craigs High Haste; E. W. Duffys Sally Lee; Windsor Farm Stables Brave Agnes, and J. Zimmers Yetive, which turned in an impressive performance on the occasion of her only start here this spring. H. T. Archibalds Mayro will endeavor to keep her New England record unblemished while Chanting, up from a winter campaign in Florida, where she met with better than average success, must also be considered to hold a stout chance. The Warren, which occupies fourth posi-j tion on the eight-race program, and imme- diately precedes the main event of the after-j noon, has attracted ten eligibles to race in seven different interests, Mr. and Mrs. William C. Weant, W. N. Kane and W. A. Jones each having nominated two horses. Araho Stables New Deal, which finished close up in his recent engagement here, has been assigned top weight of 116 pounds, four more than W. A. Jones Boston Brook, one which turned in an impressive effort here when he finished a head back of Happy Knot after taking the worst of the breaks throughout the greater part of the race. For a first out performance this year the Jones racer will, of course, improve, and threatens to be one of the major contenders. Prince Fox, in the colors of W. C. Weant and a recent arrival from Texas, has proved his worth on various occasions and must be rated a stout chance at any time he engages a field of this order. Walter E. OHara and his associates have been making extensive preparations to han- die another record-making crowd for the first mid-week half-holiday program of the meeting. With promised fair weather, track conditions should steadily improve until it should be close to its best by the time the first field is called to the post at 2:15 p. m., eastern daylight time. A
