TO CONSTRUCT MORE BARNS Cleveland Jockey Club to Build 350 Additional Stalls at North Randall Track. CLEVELAND, Ohio, April 22. The Cleveland Jockey Club today announced plans for the construction of 350 additional stalls at the North Randall race track for the thirty-three day meeting running from May 27 to July 4. It was learned that officials also are considering the advisability of erecting 150 more stalls and will go through with this plan if time permits. Thus, stall accommodations for the meeting will number 1,191, with the possibility that they may reach 1,341. Randall officials also have ordered a new type of electric odds board which will be placed in the infield. Instead of the odds being flashed from the top of the board to the bottom, they will be displayed in one line across the top so that they will be visible to race followers from any point along the quarter stretch without the necessity of neck-stretching. The seventeen-inch-high figures will be flashed in amber lights. The mutuels will have their traditional spot on the right side of the board, which will be forty feet in length.
