From the public's standpoint, yester-
days results at Emeryville left much
10 be desired. Every favorite went

the only ene Of the. lot to finish as close
up as second and the bookies benefited
by good breaks all afternoon: The ma
jority or the winners went begging for
support and there was only. desultory
backing for many. Of the contenders

lengths away from the two struggling
leaders Security, which was made fa-
vOrite by a plunge led by Al Koenigs-
berg, was the victim Of. an incompetent
ride by Jockey Finn and finished far
back in the. ruck:

drive and wind up third. Adena, neg

customary strong end sprint and got
up in the very last stride to nose out
Montclair for the purse. The latter had
been played by his. stable connections
for good thing and it looked roseate
for his. hackers a short distance from
the wire.
YOUNGSTERS DISAPPOINTING
Sir Barry scored a lucky victory in
the year old race. as Bold, which he
beat by a half length, and on which a
cleanup had been projected by w D.
AIillard, ran oHt at the stretch turn
when he. was leading by several
lengths. Larry Milligan, a 40 to l
shot, finished a bangup third Fargo
Rose. the favorite. also ran out in the
stretch and thereby lost all chance
while Osorine. the second choice. was
seemingly unable to raise q gallop.
Marl1ie Mayer was able to work his
way 70 the front in the third race in
the first Sax furlongs. and il was there
after only gallop for him. Mandator,
in forward contention throughout, just
did succeed IN saving the place from
J. r.. Laughrey, the lukewarnl favorite,
with which Miller came from q long
way back in the last quarter Orchan,
well fancied, hattered his hackers for
more than mile and then weakened.
But for having had a little bad luck
at the first turn, which cost him the
loss OF an advantageous position, Hill
CERT would have made good as a favor
ite IN the fifth race. He was beaten a
head by Standover after making up a
lot Of ground lost through the early
interference that he encountered. Miller
put up one Of the most vigorous fin
ishes that had been seen in many a day,
but Standover, which had been going
along comfortably close up to Ralph
Young's pace, had the most left when
Il came down to the pinch. and this en-
abied him to win. Ed Sheridan was
unable TO outlast Ralph Young for
show at remunerative odds. Mandarin
and John Lyle, the second and third
choices. were never in the hunt
