“At the spring meeting in 1936-37 the smallest field was nine, and at that time prices for primary products reached the peak and the workers had just received back wages This year wool was down 40 per cent., taIJ,QW down £l2 a ton, skins down 12s each, and hides down 13s each There were also seven races with under nine starters. To put through £44,202 this November, with the small fields, was a really good effort.” RACING IN AUSTRALIA THE KENSINGTON MEETING f United Press Association i (By Electric Telegraph—Copyright) SYDNEY, Dec. 1.
