She, however, graciously reminds her would-be rivals that only three days remain in which they may round their men into shape. It might be added that the CRIMSON'S, quartet is speedy and in top-notch condition, from which it behooves her less-favored contemporaries to report at the track this afternoon for special instructions in the rudiments of the sport...
