SPORTS, THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON D._C, AUGUST '15, 1937—PART ONE. SPORTS. Burning Star and Merrie Lassie Capture Features at Saratoga -~ JHISTORIG TRAVERS T0 SHANDON FARM Wheatley Stable Charger |n Front in Spinaway as Favorites Score. By the Associated Press ARATOGA SPRINGS, N. Y, Au- gust 14 —Playing their favorites’ role to perfection, two of the turf's most consistent perform- ers came through with victories in the feature races at Saratoga today, when the Shandon Farm's Burning Star won the historic Travers and the Wheatley Stable's Merry Lassie ac- counted for the forty-eighth Spin- away Stakes. Meeting four other 3-year-olds in the sixty-eighth running of America's oldest race, Burning Star triumphed just as the majority of the crowd of | 20,000 figured he would. Held at 6 to 5, the Chicago-owned son of Burning Blaze finished the mile and a quar- ter with four lengths to spare over Mrs, Parker Corning’s Up and Do- ing. Walter M. Jefford’s Matey, mak- ing his first start since trailing War Admiral in the Preakness, trailed by another half length while beating Warren Wright's Gosum and Melodist from the Whenl\e) Stable. Track Record Not Threatened. IN CHALKING up his fifth triumph of the year before the largest Sar- | atoga crowd since Jim Dandy, the | 100-to-1 shot, beat Gallant Fox and | Whichone in 1930, Burning Star ran the mile and a quarter in 2:0445. The time did not menace the track rec- | ord, held fointly by Man o War and | Sir Barton. The purse of $14,550 ran Burning Star's earnings for the year to $28,000. Melodist, which has not shown much tince winning the Wood Memorial early in the season, stole a two- length lead in the first quarter of a mile but quickly dropped back as Up and Doing took command. The latter showed the way in the stretch, but when Wayne Wright let Burning Star out a notch there was no stop- ping the Shandon ace. | 1 War Admiral Gets Ovation. MERRY LASSIE won almost n‘ easily but in a different man- | ner. She set all the pace and finished | the 8 furlongs three lengths in ad- vance of Elmer Dale Shaffer's Eve- ning Shadow, an outsider. Favored at 9 to 5 in field of 15 2-year- old flllies, the Wheatley miss was clocked in 1:1215. For winning her fifth race in six | starts, the daughter of Stimulus earned | $7.075, enough to boost her winnings to $16,200. Her only defeat came in the recent 8chuylerville, in which she trailed | Mrs. Edward's Friendly Jacola and Jeffords’ Creole Maid. Today Jacola was third, two lengths back of Fve- ning Bhadow, but Creole Maid dropped ouwt of oontention early in the run- ning. After the running of the Travers, Bamvel D. Riddle's War Admiral, 3- year-old champion, was paraded along the infleld. The unbeaten son of Man o' War was accorded a mighty ova- tion as he breezed a quarter mile through the stretch in 25 seconds. It was the first time he had been | shown to the public since winning the Belmont Stakes with blood drip- ping from his injured foot. Lincoln Flelds Entries for Tomorrow.

Johnson had 113 against 90 for Alexander. Johnson had 3,497 strikeouts, against 2,836 for Cy Young. When it comes to a matter of strikeouts and shutouts, Johnson still is well ahead of any rival, e And this is a pretty fair standard by which one can judge pitching ability.

PALMISTAND turned in some fine sprints last month in Ken- tucky and has taken nicely to his training since coming to this track. MAY MUSIC gets a nice weight pull and should finish close up. BROADKILL is better than any- thing else in this event. SECOND RACE—BUSY PRINCE, UKRAINE, TAP ON. BUSY PRINCE has flashed more speed than any of the racers oppos- ing him here and looks pretty safe for a win in this offering. UKRAINE is pretty sharp now but hasn’t quite enough speed to stay close to the top one. TAP ON can take care of the remainder of the field without much trouble. THIRD RACE--CLAP IN, RHO- DIUM, CUP DEFENDER, ‘This dash for 2-year-olds gives CLAP 1IN a fine chance to ring up the first victory of his career. RHODIUM has been close up sev- eral times. CUP DEFENDER can take the small end of the purse. FOURTH RACE — BACON, PAT- SEY BEGONE, QUEL JEU. BACON is going against much cheaper company here and looks like he has a fine chance to wing home in front. PATSEY BEGONE gave a fine performance recently at Suffolk and must be considered a threat at these weights. QUEL JEU is better than the rest. FIFTH RACE — HEELFLY, ZOIC, BACHELOR DINNER. The standout on ths opening card is T. P. Morgan's HEELFLY, This fellow is slated to go after the added money on the feature and figures to make a walkaway of the sprint. ZOIC is better than his last race looked and should stay along here and take second money. BACHELOR DINNER can beat the rest for the show. SIXTH RACE — KAPENA, HOT CAKE, MORPHEUS. KAPENA looks like & winner, since the racer has been worked into shape during the last month or 50. Next best on the list is HOT CAKE, which can make the affair pretty close if giving one of his better efforts. MORPHEUS is sure to get into the picture. SEVENTH R ACE—MR. BUN, WOULD DARE, BRASS MONKEY. MR. BUN likes the distance and off his effort at Suffolk last week he shapes up as the likely winner of this prize. WOULD DARE has some good route events to his credit and can press the top one for first honors. BRASS MONKEY is packing too much weight to do better than third. EIGHTH RACE—XANDRA, MOR- ALIST, ST. MORITZ. In the final offering XANDRA is & pretty safe investment. MORAL- IST is pretty good at this route, but won't be able to match strides at these weights with the top selec- tion. S8T. MORITZ may find the distance s little too far, but has enough speed to be able ta hang on for show money, O One of the tourna- | \HE 2-year-olds this season are an odd lot. Turfmen admit | they are above the average, but | there is no stand-out.. That is not all. Tiger, the Western crack, | has lost only one race, though he ran & dead heat in the Arlington Futur- ity. The Milky Way colt was win- ning the race that he lost, when for no known reason he bolted to the outside fence. Pumpkin, bred in foaled in this country, was thought to | be as promising & 2-year-olds as had been shown in the East, until his first | start at Saratoga, when he bolted to | the outside fence at the stretch bend. Later, in the Saratoga BSpecial, &/ winner-take-all stake, the John Hay | ‘Whitney colt, equipped with blinkers, hugged the rail all the way, and was up to beat Maetall & head for the rich prize. JU nervous, England and | w 'VENILES naturally have & lot to learn about racing. They are high strung and easily frightened. When Benning was the | mecca for District fans Trainer Burch placed Jockey Tommy Burns, | one of the greatest riders of his day, astride & 2-year-old that he was su- premely confident would win. The colt’s form was known to but few. As the youngster neared the finish, many lengths in advance of its fleld, a sud- den breeze caused the flags on the grandstand to cast flickering shadows across the track. The youngster was so fright- ened he did everything but jump over the grandstand. How many local turf fans remember when society turned out en masse to witness the Red Coat steeplechase races that were held for amateur jockeys each season at Benning? The riders wore red coats and top hats. They were not in a class with some of the present amateurs, who can hold their own with the best professionals. As a rule they lost their hats at the first jump,' stirrups at the second, and when the water jump was reached the betting was even as to whether the rider would fall or clear it. Many times it was cleared, but not with the horse. LAYING the ponies, one of the most fascinating games on earth, is the hardest one to beat. Betting on the best horse in a race does not mean that you will cash your ticket. Before the Gravesend track was cut into building lots it was the scene of many great equine struggles. We remember going there with friends to play Cer- vera, & good sprinter. would we touch until t! Cervera was entered. Our choice rounded the stretch bend five lengths in ad- vance of his field and going easily, About that time, however, a little stray dog took a notion to cross the track, was struck by Cervera, which crossed his legs, and the horse went down in a cloud of dust. At New Orleans a diminutive, freck- led-faced jack was aboard a. sup- posed “good thing,” Bister Fox. The kid had learned early to chaw tobacco, quite & habit there in the gay 00s. t in which PARLAYING % PON\ES Not a racegq B It was near the wire when, with the race apparently won, he was seen to drop the reins, only for a split second, but long enough to get nipped ¢ on the post. He had become choked and swallowed his “cud,” as the stable boys termed it. 2-YEAR-OLDS ARE SUPER-JITTERY ANYUWAY| -AND THE SHADOW OF AFLUTTERING FLAG AT THE OLD BENALING TRACK SENTA LEADER CRASHING THROUGH THE OUTSIDE RAIL !, CLINGENDAAL SETS MARK AT SUFFOLK Runs Fastest Mile on New England Turf—No Record Made in Match Race. By the Associated Press. OSTON, August 14—Turning | in the fastest mile ever run in New England, A. C. Comp- | ton’s Clingendaal today won the $3,000 added Constitution Handi- cap by a length and a half over Mrs | E. Denemark’s War Minstrel, in 1:36 The previous record of 1:37.1 was made by Stand Pat under a 120- pound burden in 1935, and equaled by Clingedaal July 31. | A match race, co-feature of the sea- son’s final day at Suffolk Downs, did not break the world record of 1:09.1 for 6 furlongs.

Jack Donohue, the medium, was given a long and careful prep, Joe Scherer, the king| bee of Winter riders, who afterward | chased Tod Sloan’s mount home in the Brooklyn Handicap at Gravesend— | Sloan and Scherer finishing first and | second on Pittsburgh Phil's entry— was aboard Jack Donohue. He had the horse under double wraps in the stretch when the soft place meant a snapped shank. Jack never finished the race. Just & couple days since another Fri- day the 13th rolled around. We hope nothing happened to you. Had you been at Montgomery Park, Mem- phis, many years ago on Friday the 13th, you would have seen “insiders™ taking 60, 20 and 10 on Clara Maeder— small bets across the board.

Peabody Memorial | Handicap at 1 mile at Lincoln Fields | today, despite a crushing impost of 122 pounds. It was Marica's second stake win on successive Saturdays and tightened her claim to the filly championship | of the Nation, Preceding Marica's sensational vic- tory in the Peabody Memorial, Leo J.
