THIRD CHOICE WINS
 RACE MEET FEATURE

CLEVELAND. July 10.-Only three of the scheduled six Grand Circuit races were decided at North Randall today because of a heavy rain storm which delayed the start of the first race nearly four hours. AS result, the meet will continue into Saturday.
 Mariondale, the third choice in the betting, won the Tavern stake of $3,000 for 2:14 trotters, the feature of the program. After deciding the third mile of ths'event dead heat between Mariondale and Lockspur, the judges reversed their ruling and gave the classic to Mariondale because he stood first in the summary. The auction pool with $3,200 was the largest ever made on the local track.
 The judges called off all pool betting on the 2:1S trot. It was announced this action was taken because of the alleged listless driving of Hodge behind Hollyrood Naomi in the first two heats.
 Mignola was the only favorite to win.
