Coaltown Passing Dixie PIMLICO, Baltimore, Md., May 5.— Trainer H. AM "Jimmy" Jones, following a phone conversation with Warren Wright, master of Calumet Farm, announced that Coaltown will pass up Saturdays Dixie Handicap here. The Bull Lea colt will remain in New York to await John B. Campbells weights on the Suburban and Metropolitan Handicaps, following which his decision will be made on the possibilities of his starting in those events. Jones stated that, because Coaltown is to remain in New York, it does not necessarily mean that he will race in that sector. Coaltown and the two-year-old Shine Boy were vanned to Belmont Park during the afternoon, where they joined a division of the Calumet Stable that came up from Havre de Grace.
