little the best of the start and In the first
quarter mile nulled over two laps ahead.
Poth crews had beautiful strike and
nearing the first stake-boat the Alameda
rained perceptibly on the South Ends,
turning the stake-boat a half length
ahead at 1!:4:2. On the home stretch
the Alemedas came along with a beautiful
stroke, crossing ih line at U:"4. foUoweJ
