Alleden Noses Out Victory Over Go Foin On Muddy Track in Lions Handicap — ____ - ■■ ■ ■ — Jack Ledi Finds Track to Liking, "Winning With Ease Golden Cup Stage? Nice Race in Fifth. Overtaking Rajah Who Seeks Good Going. Alleden. under the skilirul handling of Jockey o. Clark, managed to slip up on Go Fciin and takp the first honors of the Lions Handicap, the fifth event on the program for Tues day. by a whisker. The horses got away well and, a sixteenth out, it looked very much as though Go Foin just about had things on ice. Then Jockey C. Gross forgot his business and let the flying Alleden come up and just nose him' out in the final stride. MyJJaddy was easily third best. A track, hard beaten by the storm, yet dried sufficiently to be only slow, greeted the thoroughbreds at the Ak-Sar-Ben field Tuesday afternoon. Silent Pardner, game son of James T. Clark-MIss La Rue M., brought the eariy customers to their feet in excitement when he fought a victor ious fight in the stretch and came home a winner. The jet black colt fought gamely and won by a scant margin, with Karenza, a favorite, coining in for third money, and Par nell Lad, Ben Jones' entry, taking second money. Silent Pardner paid $6.80 to win. $3.80 to place and $2.60 to show. Par nell Lad paid $6.60 to place and $2.80 5 to show. Karonga paid $2.40 to show. Jack Ledi Easy Winner. ; The second event was equally ex i citing. Jack Ledi found his track made to order and. superbly ridden by Jockey F. Weiner, came down the stretch to win with ease but by a small margin. Hazel Dale, after lead ing for most of the way round, gave way when the winner challenged her j! and barely succeeded in saving sec ond place, while Zoona was closing fast at the end and would have nosed out Hazel Dale in another stride. Jack Ledi paid $4.60 to win, $3.00 to place and $2.60 to show. Hazel Dale paid $3.20 to place and $2.60 to show. 1 Zoona paid $3.40 to show, i Nan McKinney tool: the third event with strategy. Porter Lila had set the pace from the start and was sim ply running away from her field. Nan McKinney, close to the rail, fol lowed at a distance. On the final turn Porter Ella swung wild and Nan McKinney, watching for her oppor tunity, swung into the lead. Colonel Hapsburg closed with an astounding burst of speed but could not quite get up to win. Nan McKinney paid $6.80 to win $4.20 o place and $4 to show. vCol onel Hapsburg paid $20 80 to place and $14 to show. Porter Ella paid j $8 to show. : The customers had an unsuai op portunity tto check tlie racers In the fourth. The program carried them Golden Cup. Rajah, Yalta.

Rajah led around the course, but gave wav to seek good going and thereby lost the race. Golden Cup ran her usual hangup race and won nicely under a mild drive. Yalta was closing strong. The winner paid $9.80 to win, $3.20 to place and $2.40 to show. Rajah paid $2.60 to place and $2.20 to show. Yalta paid $2.40 to show. Praise, away slowly, waited until rounding the turn for home to close. He then camf with a rush and was running a race of his own'at the end. Lavinia, Colonel Bakers entry, was saved until the stretch was reached and tried hard but she could not match the speed of the winner in the Anal rush. Whiff ran a good race and showed. Feodor met hard luck In his ef fort. He set the pace from the bar rier to the final turn, then tired and was forced out of the money. The winner paid $6.60 to win, $3 20 to place and $2.40 to show. Lavinia paid $3.60 to place and $2.40 to show. Whiff paid $2.40 to show. Power barely managed to ease over the Anlsh line to win the seventh event. She was just a nose ahead of Manokin and that bangtail was just a nose ahead of Double Van. It was a finish to remember and the closing event of the spring racing meeting could not have been better had It been planned in advance. Every visitor who saw that finish went away with a thrill In his heart and Is ready for the opening of the next series of races at the Ak oval. Praise paid $5 to win, $3 to place and $2.SO to show. Manokin paid $5 to place and $3.60 to show. Double Van paid $3.40 to show. Suzanne Lenglen Says British Tennis Championship Open'Affair This Year By MLLE. SUZANNE LENGLEN. International Woman’, Trnnia Champion. (Copyright. 1924.) >NDON, June 24.—I am ho sorry William M. Johnson Is not defending his ten nis singles tide. He was so nice—that capable little man with the close crop of red hair. In the firs* quar ter we will see J. Washer, champion of Belgium: J. B. Gilbert and R. Ly cett of England. R LaCoste of France, Manuel Alonzo of Spain. S. Okanzelo of Japan and F. T. Hunter of the United States. I think Alonso will have It, but he will have to fight hard. In the second quarter there will be >1. Fiikuda of Japan, S. M. Jacob of India. A. F. Kingsrnfe of England, R. N. Williams of America, M. Mishit of Rumania and I. Richardson of South Africa. The Issue should be between Wil liams and KiugM'ute, with the chanceo favoring the American. There will be in the third quarter, M. Skene of India, P. D. B. Spenre of South Africa, J. Borotra of France, Max Woosnatn and F. G. I-owe of England, T. Harada and Vincent Richards. I would like to see Borotra defeat Richards, but am afraid he will not do so. In the last quarter will be AVash burn of the United States, H. G. Mayes. F. R. L. Crawford and A. H. Fyzee of India, H. Tlminer of Hol land. L. Raymond of South Africa, J. D. P. AVheatley of England and J. Brugnon. Burgnnn plays his best at Wimble don, but I think that Raymond is likely to heat both he and Washburn. Last year we praetirally knew that Johnson would be rhamplon. This year It Is open. No one would care to select a winner nr even name the last four. Of course, you will say the women's singles title Is mine, hut I want to tell you one ne\cr knows. There is always a chance of defeat, no matter who it Is pla.vlug.
