It Happened to Bieber and Jacobs Before That triple disqualification was something new, but the greater majority of those present, well the regulars anyway, did not learn of the event until an hour or so later. The boys had their bags all packed for the return trip to New York, and when the race was over dashed for the trains, and good old Albany night boat, and the family jalopy. You see, there were no loud speakers, mutuels or warning signals to alert the -populace, in those -days. Anyway, to round out the double disqualification on Monday and the triple one at Saratoga Springs, Bieber and Jacobs participated in both. Bieber was the owner of Noble Spirit and the trainer was Hirsch Jacobs. The boys who rode in the race, in the original order of finish, before the disqualification were Don Meade, S. Renick, H. Richards, J. Gilbert, E. Litzenberger and S. Coucci. Eddie Madden, founder of the Queens Blood Bank, and a familiar figure on the lawn in the old days, is. at the Baylor Hospital, Waco, Texas, for surgery. He planed to the Texas institution the other day. . . . Irving Gushen, national president of the HBPA, was a visitor yesterday and later. left for Chicago on official business. . . . Bunnys Babe, owned by Jerseyite Col. E. P. Bixer, will, according to trainer Sol Rutchick, start in the week-end Shevlin Stakes. . . . Danny Arn-stein planed back from a business trip to California and was on hand for the afternoon. . . . Jack Silverman, the old Long Islander, was on hand to do some rooting. His choices evidently did not hear his pleas to "come on" in the stretch run. . . . Wallace Gilroy came down from Connecticut for the afternoon. . . . Jockey George Glassner will go to Monmouth Park to ride Talora, owned by C. T. Chenery, in a stake engagement at that track.
