Nominations Close today I For Beverly Handicap WASHINGTON PARK," Homewood, HI., Aug. 21. Nominations for the 5,000-added Beverly Handicap for fillies and mares will close at midnight Saturday, Washington Park secretary Frank E. Kilroe reminded horsemen. TheBeverly, carded for the distaff division, three -year-olds and upward, will be run on Wednesday, September 2, over the mile distance and is the last of a richly endowed program for fillies and mares at Arlington Park-Washington Park. Last year it was won by Calumet Farms filly-and-mare champion, Real Delight, but the four-year-old star will be missing from the 1953 renewal. She has been retired from racing after bowing a tendon here last Saturday in the Grassland Handicap.
