Ready Tre Vit at Hawthorne For Return to Competition SPORTSMANS PARK, Cicero, 111., May 2. — Alphonse "Frenchy" Schwartz, trainer for the C. U. Yaeger stable, reports that the crack mare, Tre Vit, is training slowly over the Hawthorne track and that he hopes to have her ready to fill several stakes engagements at Lincoln Fields-at-Washington. The five-year-old daughter of Tiger — Wiskover, by Whiskalong, was fired and turned out during the winter at St. James Farm, near Wheaton, 111. Last season Tre Vit was one of the leading fillies in the middle west. On one occasion, in the Great Western Handicap at Washington Park, she downed the mighty Coaltown, running six furlongs in r.OJM/s, which was believed to be the fastest race in history at the distance for a four-year-old filly. Schwartz also reported that his prominent Denver, Colo., patron Yaeger, is here and is to remain for the entire meeting.
