NEW YORK. May 31.-with two
lengths to spare. Friar Rock, an out

Belmont chairman OF the Jockey
Club, won the Suburban Handicap.
one of the oldest of American turf
classics, yesterday, at Belmont Park.
Emil Herz's imported Short Grass

boil. last years winner, was third.
two lengths behind. The value to the
winner of the handicap is S3,45O.
According to the officials. the crowd
was the largest ever TO attend the
Westchester Racing Association's
course, and exceeded in numbers the
throng on the memorable day in 1907,
when the great Colin defeated Fair
Play for the Belmont Stakes. While
no exact figures were announced, the
spectators numbered between 10000
and $4,000 persons.
But few persons seemed to take Friar
Rock seriously. Every one thought the
distance too great for him and the COM
PAW too fast. IL was considered that
he was placed In the race merely as a
Dacemaker for his stablemate. AS n
two-year-old he had been fairly success
full. winning five races out of twelve
starts and being unpaced five times,
but none OF these was a distance event
and did not warrant the opinion that
the Rock Sand youngster was of Su-
burban Handicap caliber.

Turn Your Tires

Here IS some good advice for au.
tomobilists in Farm and Fireside,
the national farm paper published
in Springfield. o.:
When for any reason you remove
automobile tires, always place the
side that was away from the car
towards the car in putting them
back Most OF the wear on a tire
occurs on the outside edge But
putting the worn side towards the
car, the unworn part OF the tire will
receive the hardest wear, and IN that
way the tire will wear out on both
sides instead OF wearing through
in one place II Is the plan used
by man 20 make his socks last
longer. He alternately wore the
left sock on the right foot, and
vice versa"
