PALIN - S.

The Indiana trainer, S. Palin is proving a very clever man with pacers. He acquired the record-breaking habit over the half mile track with Possibility and gradually worked on to the larger ovals where he is now making the stop watches hum with Verlie Patchen and Eva Abbe. The former cut the half mile track record for pacing mares to 2:04 when she won at Youngstown and forced Single G out in 2:02 ¾ at Cleveland. He also won at Cleveland with Eva Abbe in 2:04 ½ and made Direct C. Burnett pace in 2:03 ¼ to keep in front of her at Kalamazoo. She is six years old by The Abbe out of Eva Hal by Direct Hal and is very apt to prove one of the high lights in the pacing world this year.
