By RUSSELL PHELPS. Great Western circuit rnthusiasts at the Omaha Driving club's program yesterday saw one of the rare thrill ers in harness horsedom a seven heat race. The long, strung out battle for honors in the 2:27 trot kept the loyal legion of the faithful at the Benson track until nearly 7 o'clock last night, for the winner of the race was in doubt until two trotters, the survivors out of a field of eight start ers, thundered under the wire in the seventh and final heat. Result of Stamina. Maharba, a royal, gamey offspring of Archdale. owned b)y the Hildeth stables of Omaha, beat out Bobola, a gelding by Expedition, hailing from Iowa, in the last heat and won. first money. Maharba's performance was a shining example of what stamina means. He did not win a heat until the fifth frame, and then he came back and with Driver Hildreth in the sulky copped three straight, grabbing final honors from a horse, who came home a victor in the' first and third heals. t , The 2:27 trot was as an exciting a race from the spectators' standpoint as any of the Great Western circuit meting to date. Drivers were re buked and ordered changed by the judges, scoring was lively and keen, infact, a little too keen at times, rivalry was displayed between a few reinsmen.' T he come-back staged by Maharba. who iemingly didn't have a chance to get better than second money up till the fifth heat was fin ished. V as the outstanding feature of the day. i Eight Trotters Start Eight trotters scored for the word in th? first heat, with Bobola. Wag ner. High Knob Anna and Maharba ruling as prime favorites. When they Ot away Miss Gailey, driven by Jimmy Konin, and High Knob Anna, with Genoung handling the ribbons, failed to score with the field, but were given places by the judges at the con clusion of the heat. s A royal tilt between Bobola and Maharba for first honors resulted in a victory for the farmer, Black Kil kenny and Jack Coobs placing third and fourth, respectively. High Knob Anna trotted a pretty race in the next heat and won. Wag ner grabbed second position at the wire, beating Bobola and lack Coombs and pushing Maharba back to fifth. y Before the start of the third heat Starting Judge Stone called Driver Allen, piloting Wagner, and Driver Perry, sitting behind Bobola. to the stand and ordered drivers changed. It was the impression these two reins men didn't perform in the previous heat in a way to please the racing judiciary. ' Mr. Taylor went in for Perry and Fred Douglas supplanted Allen as Wagner's remsman. Bobola Wins Third. Driver Taylor sandled Bobola In a fashionable way and won the' third heat, beating out Maharba and Jack .Coombs. Wagner, a son of Ed. Cus ter, sprung a surprise by romping home a winner in the fourth heat. Bobola was second and High Knob Anna third. Before the four leaders, Wagner, Bobola,' High Knob Anna and Ma harba, were called to start the fifth heat the judges decided there was still something wrong and ordered another driver in Bobola's sulky.

He repeated in the sixth heat, again beat ing Wagner and the other two con tenders. 1 Two Start in Last. Only two horses, Maharba and Bo bola. both with two heats to their credit, were called for the seventh and deciding heat.

ROURKES DIYIDE WITH KANSAS NINE Wichita Wins First Game, 6 to 3, by Pounding O'Toole, But. Loses Second Contest, 7 to 3. Omaha and Wichita split even in a double bill yesterday afternoon. Wichita won thefirst game, 6 to 3, and Omaha captured the second one, Ttr3." Marty O'Toole was" the victim in the first game. The Wolves took a liking to Marty's offerings and straightened his slants out to all cor ners of the lot. They jumped on him in the first inning and in the first three rounds marked up five scores, enough to pickle the battle. Carl Baker, for Vichita, held the Kourkes helpless except in one in ning, the seventh,, when three hits accounted for aa many runs. The Kourkes accused Baker of doc toring the pill. They rwiped a couple of balls as samples and probably will send tl.em to Prexie Dickerson with a protest. The Wolves were duck soup for Otto Mcrz in the second game. After the first inning, when they scored two runs on a couple of bingfes, the visit ors from Kansas couldn't even see Otto's fast ones. ' The Rourkes knocked two Wichita hurlers from the mound, Koestner and Clemons, Wichita makes its last appearance of the year on the local lot today, starting at 3:15.
