Riders Escape Serious Injury In Spill at Lincoln Course LINCOLN, Nebr., Aug. 26. The last race on Tuesdays card was marred by a spill on the near turn when Buster T. and Miss Headache fell. Buster T. fell while racing well placed, then Miss Headache, who was racing on the outside, fell over the prone Buster T. Everett Hammond, who was aboard Buster T., suffered a sprain of his arm and will be out of action for a day, while the other rider, Herbert Culbertson, was scratched and bruised slightly. Hammond, who is fighting to get to the top of the jockeys standings, had three winners on the afternoons card. He won the Nebraska-bred fixture while astride Miss Cible to return one of the larger payoffs of the day of 5.40.
