Of Good Races
Boston Ely Pays $10.10
By Win In Major Event;
Lady Jockey Triumphs
Fewer tight flnlshi but plenty
of action marked the second night
of racing at the county fairground-
Thursday night as 2,300
horse lovers and wagering en
thusiasts spent the evening trying
to outguess the horses and pick
the winners.
Only one payoff, that of the
last race, resembled anything like
Wednesday's large returns. In the
finale Boston Ely, a 4-to-l shot,
paid $10.10 to win, $4.10 to place,
and $3.20 to show.
That same race was the eve
ning's most exciting. The thor
oughbreds covered a mile and one-sixt'-enth
course for their $250
purse in a race that was a battle
all tne way between the eventual
winner and the place horse.
Boston Ely, under Jackey Clyde
Wright, broke third and moved
up to second on the first turn, as
border Gypsy, a six-year-old gray
gelding, rushed to the front. On
the backstretch Boston Ely start
ed to move up and by the time
the horses hit the front stretch,
was ahead by half a lengh. The
nine-year-old chestnut gelding
held tight the rest of the way,
winning by two-and-a-half lengths.
Border Gypsy was second by a
length-and-a-half and Double Bo,
who broke first but soon dropped
back, finished third in a final
burst. Owner of the winning horse
was A. H. Parkey. The time,
1:56.0, broke Wednesday night's
mark set by Zoric by six-tenths of
a second.
Opening the night's activities
was a 220-yard quarter horse
event. Diamond Debt broke first,
with Gallant Bess close behind,
and the pair held that position
around the turn. But coming into
t'..i home stretch Danger Boy C,
under Bob Strauss, pounded to
the front. Diamond Debt couldn't
stand the pace and fell back, as
Sweet Louise followed Danger
Boy and Gallant Bess across the
finish line.
Fivt Furlongs Closa
Thoroughbreds took over In the
second event, over a five furlong
course. Out of the eleven horses
nominated Wednesday for the
race five went to the post. Will
helmlna Kay broke third from the
gate, but rushed into first and
held onto her lead all the way.
Boynton broke first, but dropped
to second, a length-and-a-half be
hind the leader, on the first
stretch.
On the backstretch Boynton, un
der strong riding by Jockey Cal
Howes, pulled ud within half a
length. Coming into the home
stretch Willhelmina Kay was still
first by a head but Boynton was
trying to close. Kay went over
the winner by a nose, with Boyn
ton second by two lengths over
Little Boy.
Willhelmina Kav was r dden
by Luther Slape, booting home
his second winner of the meetine.
and the mare paid the second
highest win money of the night.
$8.20.
I Marvin Peery rode his third
winner of the meeting in the
third event, a 330-yard quarter
horse race. Valley Rose, the fa-
; vorite at 1-to-l odds, broke sec
ond but quickly moved to first,
and won by three lengths. Record
. Crop was second by a nose over
Miss Fitzl, owned by L. R. Andrus.
S Valley Rose paid $3.90, $2.70, and
; $2.20.
' Lady Jockey Scores Win
Fourth race was run over a new
distance for the fairgrounds track,
six and one-half furlongs. The
meeting's only girl jockey, Dona
Smith, rode her father's five-year-old
mare. Lady's Billing, to the
meeting's easiest win, and won a
big hand from the crowd for her
' strong riding.
Lady's Billing broke third, but
moved to the front on the first
si retch, and kept gaining ground,
to coast across the finish with
an eight length victory margin.
Harney D. broke second and held
that position all the way to place,
and Lady Sandy showed,
i The time, 1:20.2, was a new
track record, of course. The win
ner paid only $2.80.
In the fifth, another quarter
horse run over 330-yards, the 21
favorite. Lady 1 1, broke second but
moved to the front on the stretch,
as the early starter, Chester D.,
dropped back to third. Champ R.
Yankees Boost
Lead Over Sox
To Four Games
Brooklyn Loses 3rd In
Row To Phils; Pirates
Shut Out Chicago Cubs
By JOE REICHLER
Aaeaclaled Pres. Sporuwriu'
Are the New York Yankees a
greater club than most realize,
or are they Just plain lucky?
The Yankees have been win
ning despite 53 injuries, several
to key men. They've been win
ning the close ones, too. In one
recent week, they won four 3-2
games. They've engaged In 38
one-run decisions, and won 23
of them. No other club can boast
such a mark.
Look what happened yesterday.
They spotted the Washington
Senators a 4-0 lead In the fourth
frame, but came on to win 5-4.
As in a majority of their one
run victories, an error by the
opposition led to the Yankees'
winning margin.
The Yakees already had tallied
twice in the last half of the
fourth on Tommy Henrlch's
home run, a fluke double by
Johnny Lindell on a pop that fell
in oacK oi first and uerry cole
man's single. They had two men
on base and two out. Cliff Mapes
hit an easy roller to second, but
Al Kozar bobbled it, then was
slow to pick it up. Two Yankees
crossed the plate to deadlock the
score at 4-4.
A double by Phil Rlzzuto and
Mapes' single off Mickey HarrU
in the sixth, produced the win
ning run.
The victory Increased the Yan
kees' first place lead over the
idle Boston Red Sox to four full
games.
Dodgers Lost 3rd In Row
In the National, the Brooklyn
Dodgers continued to flounder
around. They dropped their third
in a row to Philadelphia's Phils,
9-5, and fell a full game behind
the paw-setting St. Louis Car
dinals. The Redblrds and Cincin
nati's Reds enjoyed an off day.
The third place Cleveland In
dians remained in the American
league fight, walloping the St.
Louis Browns, 14-4. Bob Lemon
had little trouble racking up his
15th triumph, while Larry Doby
and Mickey Vernon each polled
three-run homers for the Tribe.
The victory left the Indians
five games behind the Yankees
and one in back of the Red Sox.
Home runs by Bob Elliott, Jeff
Heath, Elbie Fletcher and Jim
Russell helped the Boston Braves
defeat the New York Giants,
10-fi.
Rookie Jim Walsh, making his
second start for Pittsburgh, pitch
ed the Pirates to a three-hit,
20 victory over the Chicago
Cubs. Ralph Kiner drove in both
Pittsburgh runs with a single
and triple against Doyle Lade.
The Detroit Tigers blanked the
Chicago White Sox, U, to snap
a 19-innlng scoring draught. At
the same time, when the Bengals
tallied in the first, it marked
the first run against While Sox
pitching in 28 consecutive in
nings.
Boston and Philadelphia, In the
American league, were idle.
Jap Swimmers Nearer Clean Sweep In A. A, U. Meet
LOS ANGELES. Aug. 19. f")
Only V. S. Olympic champion
Wally Rlt standi between the
astounding Japanese swim team
and a complete sweep of the
national A.A.U. men's free style
titles today.
Rlt, who hold the American
record of 57.6, will swim in the
100-meter event against Tokyo
swim club'i Yoshihiro Hamagu
chl and Shigeyukl Maruyama.
The Iowa flash may have to do
better than that to best the Nips.
For it seems that nothing less
than the phenomenal will do
against the invaders who seem
bent on taking home all the
world's records, as well as the
American championships.
Hironcshln Furuhashi, Mr. per
petual motion, rewrote the record
book again last night with 4:33.3
in winning the 400 meteri, and
anchoring the Tokyo club to vic
tory In the 800-meter relay in
8:45.4.
These figures eclipsed Alex
Jany't 4:35.2 In the 400, and the
American Olympic team's 8:46
In the 800 relay at London last
year.
Furuhashi, in the final 200

unofficially In 2:07.4. This cer
