DEL cRuzADos PLACED LAST
FOR RANK FOUL
schillins Has Good Day, Being Up
on Four Winners and One Sec
ond--5emay Takes
Third

racing season was recorded yesterday
when Del Cruzados. which finished first
in the baby race, was set back to last
place and Indictment, which finished
second, was given the purse. Melton
Cloth and Bell of Brass, third and
fourth respectively before the judges
took action, were placed second and
third.
Many fouls have been committed at
Santa Anita, but none so palpable as
that of Mcbride and Del Cruzados. All
through the stretch the boy allowed his
mount to swing over against Inclement,
and fifty yards from the wire he nearly
bumped the latter over the fence. Del
Cruzados' number went up for a
minute, but the occupants of the pagoda
changed this without even waiting for
Schilling to come back and enter pro-
test.
Inclement's victory gave the form
players an equal chance with the
books. as two other favorltes won and
divided the card with second choices
and outsiders. Remay. at 20 to l. was
the longest priced trick of the after.
noon.. and she would have been in the
second hole had Burns kept awake on
the first choice. Pal.
1t was another fine large occasion for
Schillings followers, as the boy was
credited with four winners and Sec
ond at the end of the afternoons work.
Indictment was one of Schilling 8
mounts. and the only faux pas he
made was when the odds on favorite,
Bribery. was defeated In the closing
number.
The five-furlong route seems made to
order for Billy Mayham and Armour's
roam streak made runaway race OF
the first event on the card, beating
Anna May two lengths. La Chata was
third. and had a hard time keeping
Creston Boy out of the money. The
money horses ran one, two, three from
the barriers release to the wire, Billy
Mayham always being a length or two
in advance of Anna May. Billy was
held at as in the ring, Creston Boy be-
ing favorite at IL to 5.
Pal Is Beaten
Pal should have won the third num-
Der on the card, but right at the end
Brrns fell off in his riding ability, and
i'm a dive Bemay got by him to score
out and was third. Pal got away from
the post none too well. but was quickly
rushed into the lead and kept there
until Bemay nipped him a short dis
tance out, and in the drive proved a bit
gamer.
Edwin T. Fryer was backed from to
5 TO evens TO win the mile and three
lowing by beating Chalfonte half a
length. l. C. Widrig was third, the
other two in the race being completely
outclassed. Chalfonte led for the entire
distance until Strengthened for hime,
where Fryer challenged and held him
safe. L. c. Widrig was six lengths be-
hind the place horse.
Cotillion ran one of her pld-time
races in the fifth number, and easily
disposed of Sainrida and Lady CHS
well when it came time to make a run
az the end of the mile and an eighth
trip. Sainrida made the pace by wide
margin, with Cotillion always second,
and when he was ready Schilling sent
the old daughter of Kingston to the
front to win by three lengths. Lady
Chiswell was put to hard drive TO
stall Ester b out of the show change,
Bribery was made to shot in the
closing number, and it looked like her
day until the final eighth, where Toller
overhauled her and came home alone,
with four lengths to spare. Instructor
was a nose ahead of Tattenham at the
wire. The latter was backed from 90
to | to s. and might have been in the
money with any other boy aboard but
Mcbride.
