2 'Monitor* Both Adios Harry and Adios Boy are four-year-olds and both are sons of the famed pacer and splendid sire, Adios. The two pacers have met five times before. Adios Boy has finished in front on each occasion, but they've all been thrillers, and Adios Harry currently is showing truly brilliant form. Adios Boy defeated Adios Harry once as a two-year-old and three times as a three -year-old. In all, he has won four races in which he met Adios Harry and finished in front of him in the other. Adios Boy, which in 1953 set a world record of 2:03 for a two-year-old on a half-mile track, is owned by J.S, Turner, Jr., of Nassawadox, Va and is trained and driven by Howard Camden, a 25year-old veteran of the Korean War who has been training on his own for only two years. Adios Boy made his last start at Laurel Raceway in Maryland, where he won in a brilliant 2:01.2. Adios Harry is owned and trained by J. Howard Lyons of Greenwood, Del., and driven by his son, Luther. This year Adios Harry has won five of six starts. Last Saturday, on a rain-swept track, he defeated an excellent field by five lengths in 2:02.3* He also recorded the best pacing time of the season — 2:00 flat — at Roosevelt. o NBC -New York, 6/15/55
