Arlos Fanning, Kansas City lightweight star who meets Otto Wallace in one of the feature bouts at the Rodeo grounds Friday night, opened up in his training bout today with Earl Puryear and showed the railbirds plenty of punches that had the fans on their feet cheermg. Puryear also uncorked the old fistic fi with Fanning winging his punch over plenty hard. It was one of th Prettiest training bouts ever wit negsed in a local gym and both the boys won a host of friends by their clean cut hard hitting style of mill- ing.

The Yanks, having lost three straight, needd the game and they wave every ounce of their power to win, It meant more than a victory to them, for St Louis, with a stronger attack than the Sox, mauled Ed Rommel, one of Connie Mack's stars and won over Philadelphia, 10 to 3, giving the Yanks a wider margin, Cleveland ¢ropped before the weak Boston Red Sox with a chance to slip into second placa. ‘They are only three points today behind the Ath- letics who, momentarily at least, have lost thelr punch. The score was 10 to 6. The other westerner to win was Detroit, which shut out Washington and collected three runs.

EPSOM DOWNS, June 6.—(By The Associated Press.) —Papyrus,by Tracery out of Miss Matty, owned by British and ridden by the veteran jockey, Steve Donoghue, won the classic derby stakes run here today. The Earl of Derby’s Pharos, EGGS, A. REAL TOY AND: HAM— - QH_GOY. flow, was second, and M. Gocul out of Willia, was third. Nineteen horses ran. The betting on Papyrus was 100 to| less 15 against, Pharos 6 to 1, and Parth 33 to 1 against. Papyrus won by a length while half a length separated Pharos and Parth at the finish. The race was worth more than $25,000 to the winner. This is the third time in succession that Donog- hue has won the blue ribbon of the English turf, thus becoming entitled to wear the golden spurs. Donoghue captured the prize with Humorist in 1921 and with Captain Cuttle last year. By this year's victory, the clever Lancashire man’s total string of win- ning mounts in the derby was run up. to five, as he had captured the classic with Pommern in 1915 and with Gay Crusader in 1917. In these war years the derby was run at New Market. ‘The winner crossed the tape a full length ahead of his competitors. His time for the mile and one half was 2 minutes 40 seconds, Archibald, the American jockey, proved unable to make good the con- fidence placed upon his mount by his host of American admirers, the heavily played Town Guard which he rode not measuring up to form. ‘The official time of the winner was 2 minutes, 38 seconds. The derby came round again today with all its traditional trappings to belie the maxim that racing is the sport of kings alone, and to contra- dict the practical minded who affirm that the day of the horse is done. All England was at Epsom Downs today—here in the spirtt if not in the flesh—for Britain's greatest fes- tival will not be denied and draws its multitude despite business depression, unemployment, international compll- cations and income taxes.

These were the count thousands in whose pockets nestled @ sweepstakes ticket, that coveted card which annually edmits some one within the gates of finan- cial importance. Those who came to the Downs found that rain had fallen during part of the night, dampening the comfort but not the good nature of the campers who, erriving from afar by foot, by motor or by carriage, had made themselves at home on the hillside. The day broke grey and dreary, The bookmakers, busier perhaps than the gypsies and peddlers who piled their trades among the color ful crowd, found that in the public mind the result of the race had never been a more open question than to- day. Racing men generally declared that prospects were never more puzzling. Town Guard, displaced by Papyrus in first place betting last night, wes reinstated as the favorite early today. Others well thought of were Pharos, Ellangowan, Legality and My Lord. Thousands of Americans in Eng land placed heavy bets on Town Guard because he was to be ridden by the American jockey Archibald, He was ruling a favorite in the betting. N ———-———_.
