MANY GOOD

SENT OVER
SLY BEN SCORES IN PURSE
RACE ON CARD
WINNER is BACKED FROM Six
TO FOUR TO ONE
Dryers Work at Barrier None Too
Good, and Poor Starts Are in
order-one Favorite
Connects
BY j. G. GRIFFIN

HNHERE was nothing particularly note
worthy on the card yesterday, save
\ that many good things went over for
the insiders and but one favorite got
hcme to reward the wisenheimers who
always string with the first choices. Dick
Dwyers work at the barrier was rather
to the rough, and just how the form
chart calls the starts good" is beyond
comprehension.
sly Ben, backed from 6s to to 1, copied
the only purse race on the card besides
that offered for the babies. The Kelly
Peters combination was in need of money,
and despite the fact that Grand was in
the saddle, felt justified in playing their
sprinter up and down the line for gen.
efous bundles of scrip.
And they collected. Monte Lucille, on
the strength of her last race, which was
a superb effort, was installed favorite,
ana while the sucker coin was making
her price even money the Sly Ben bunch
slipped theirs in and scored. Alice Carey,
with Buxton in the saddle and go to l
as the indication of her worth on the
boards, was second, Teacress landing in
the third hole.
With Sly Ben in front at the break
il looked as though he might stick to
be second, for Monte Lucille was close
up. She met with a lot Of humping,
however, and soon retreated, winding up
next to last Teacress and Louise Fitz-
gfbbon were Immediately behind the pace
turning for home. but they both gave
up when Buxton brought Alice Carey
through and all but got up to Sly Ben.
Diamond had chance to shine at
last and scored in the opening number
after a nice pilotage by big Bill Knapp,
who knew that the right money was
down. Lady Kitty, backed to win by a
select few. was second, Ell Bernardo run
rine her to head for the place money.
The winner was retreating favorite.

More College Men Than Ever
On Olympic Team This Year
Athletic Experts Predict That Intercollegiate Champions
Will Earn Majority of Places in Try
outs Held on Saturday.

Following the grand performances by
athletes in the intercollegiate cham
pionships at Franklin Field Saturday,
college men throughout the country
were yesterday predicting that the
Olympic team which will represent this
country in London next month viii have
more coIlegians on it than ever before.
While the opinion is unanimous "'--sc
the two big New York clubs, the New
York Athletic Club and the Irish-Ameri-
can Athletic Club, viii be represented
on the team. the athletic experts say
that they Will have TO be at their best
Iu order TO win many events al the try
outs I'm Philadelphia Saturday.
Among the miers. Talsted. of Cor
nell, is expected 20 be among the lead
ers. His race on Saturday over the
muddy track was considered by all pres
ent as little less than phenomenal, and
even ardent followers of the New York
clubs stated that their favorites would
have to show much improvement 10
beat the Ithacan.
Gotham Aspiranrs
Gothamites have much faith in their
local men and predicted that at the I'm
ish Jim Sullivan, of the Irish-Amerieau
Athletic Club, holder of the national
championship, and Fred Rodgers, of the
New York Athletic Club, would be I'm
front of the cOllegiau. Rodgers has
been running IN exceptionally fine form
at South Field, and those who have seen
Kim perform In practice say that he IS
as good now es when he captured the
American championship in .4.10 two
years ago.
In practice Sullivan has been running
fast, and those who have watched mis-
work do not believe that he ran his hest
on Sunday when beaten by mis- clubmate.
Frank Riley in a handicap race. Al
though Riley's running has improved
greatly this year Sullivan admirers
say that he is not god enough TO beat
the tIJle-hOlder even from the nfry-va Td
mark when the latter is an the form no
is said 10 be IN at present
Jones Fast in Half.
Another event I'm which cOIIegians ex-
pect 10 upset the plans OF the athletic
clubs is in the hslf-mile run. They pick
Jones, OF the University Of Pennsyl-
vania. who ran such a remarkably good
race on Saturday, to beat Melvin Shep-
Tard. the country's greatest middle dis
lance man. Although the New York
experts who saw Jones win pronounced
it as excellent. there is scarcely one OF
them who agrees with the COlleEians
