Adams, chairman of the board of Suffolk Downs, tonight announced that, horse owners being willing, his track would put in a new $100,000 race on July 9 that would create a new vogue in sport.

Under Adams' proposal, no entrance or nomination fee Would be charged. The starters would be selected by a board of outstanding handicappers and racing secretaries and would include the winners of the Kentucky Derby, Preakness and Massachusetts Handicap, as well as outstanding older horses. The latter would include War Admiral and Scabiscuit. tentatively scheduled to meet in a $100,000 match race at Belmont Park in late September. "If the: owners are willing," said Adams, "we will go through with this Against Match Races "Match races, even at scale weights, have accomplished little in the past," he explained.

'There 'is no question but that if the proposed match race between War Admiral and Scabiscuit is run, their owners will point their charges for this one event, and the ambitious programs provided by both Eastern and Western tracks with the intention of attracting the two outstanding stars will suffer accordingly." Should the race go through, it would be the second richest race in the world. Only $100,000 added Santa Anita Handicap would be richer. Adams said he had in mind a weight-for-age event, the distance to he decided later. He said the Eastern Racing Association, which operates Suffolk Downs, would guarantce the purse with any profits derived to be given to the Eastern Horse Club, socially prominent group of Massachusetts horse lovers which formerly operated steeplechase meetings at the Country Club, in Brookline. Adams' conditions would require at least six starters and no more than 12.

The winner would receive $70,000, with $12,600 going to second place; $5000 to third, and $2500' to fourth. Another novelty would be the award of $5000 to the winning trainer, $2000 to the second winner, and $1000 to third. The winning jockey also would gain $1500 with second taking $500.. Rangers Swamp.
