RACING CLOSED
 AT INCLESIDE A MOderate-Sized Crowd Swelled Balboa BOu-
 levard Fund.
The Downfall of Won't Dance Was a Stunning Sur
 prise.
Recreation Scored an Easy Win Light Fields and Four Beaten
 FavOrites.

It could hardly be said that 1ngleside track closed its gates on the racing sea- son yesterday in a blaze of glory. The weather was cold, the card an extremely i light one, and only the regulars turned out. However. the Balboa boulevard fund, for whose benefit the racing was conducted, must have received Qulte substantial amount
 Notwithstanding the paucity of entries it was not all pig tails and hominy for the favorites four of the choices having their pictures turned toward the wall.
 The wise division to man fell all in a bunch over the result of the $750 mile and a quarter special" with but three starters. Every body wanted Won Dance at 3 to 5, and the Corrigan mare finished last Twinkler, the outsider in the betting, ridden by Dick Clawson, was allowed to make the running, and when it came to the drive at the end the favor ite couldn't make it and Thorpe'S groggy finish astride Morellito permitted the de- spised one to win by very Scant lens III in 2:l0. The ring laid to about the winner.
 After having proven a disappointment on numerous occasions, Hohenlohe at last escaped from the maiden class Just as every body played Major Hooker Tor good thing. Three to one was lald agalnst the brown colt and he beat Hooker out by over three lengths. Joe Mussle man aged to take the show.
 The mile purse run proved an easy thing for Recreation, the crack lilly from the Burns and Warehouse string. With but 9l pounds up, 8 tv looked liberal price O'Connell stayed with her for six furlongs and then she galloped in, almost pulled to a walk. Zarro, 25O to l chance, caught the tiring OConnell, lead ing him out for the place.
 -Four lined up in the mile and quarter selling event with Miller and Blazer $ chestnut horse San Marco ruling to lO cnoice Piggot sailed away in front with him and he won all the way, leading Tulare over the line under wraps. Treach- cry downed Del Paso for the show.
 The Corrigan lilly, Daisy F, repeated her handy win Of Saturday in the mile selling run Second choice to Don Luis in the betting, she came from behind In the run home, defeating the favorite with the utmost ease in 1:42%. Rio Eric, lO0 to 1 shot, well ridden by a stable boy named Langford, landed in the show.
 An uncertain lot went to the post in the final mile run, and the betting was ex- tremely nervous, finally resulting in The Dragon being sent to the post favorite. A poor start ruined his chances. Thorpe, astride the old mare Fortuna, led to the stretch, where Hennessy gradually got up with Claudius, and driving hard, beat Stentor out head.
