Paddock Calls and Echoes at Gloucester Track
Castaway II has gone amiss and will be returned to Guttenberg for a rest. Flagrant was favored yesterday, with Prospect excluded from contention.

Track officials and jobbers face scrutiny amid continuing schemes to restrict horseracing. Jockey Morrissey is under investigation for a recent riding incident. Julia L. as a leading two year old faces Eleanor with high hopes. Continuous racing in St. Louis and Chicago is blamed for saddling baseball. Illinois and Missouri may see limits on racing days.
