AINTREE. Liverpool, England,

the Grand National steeplechase
today in a heart-breaking race in
which favoriteS went down one by
one in the grueling grind.
Egremont was second and Shaun
Collin, 1880 winner, was third.
Only eight jumpers of the thirty
six starters finished. The treach-
erouS turns and jumps took their
toll as a crowd of more than
100000 shouted Historically for their

finished fourth. Sea Soldier, son
OF Man O'War and one of the chief
American hopes, ran a good race
and managed to finish. Thereas
and Annandale also completed the
course.
The choices in the betting came
TO grief in rapid succession, while
the stands and the dense crowds
around the course shouted their
dlsmay. Heartbreak Hill and
Grakle started joint favorites- at
100 to II, but Grakle refused after
nearly completing the first circuit
and Heartbreak Hill, owned by Mrs
G. s. Bird Jr., an American, refused
at the third fence.

Referee little PhiD Collins and
one judge, Ed Klein, voted for Mich

Houghteling, cast his ballot for
Maier.
Outweighed 1917 pounds, Nichols
furious charges in which he dubbed
Maier severely with his dangerous
left hand, turned the tide in his
favor Maier, who was a 7 to 5
favorite before the fight, weighed
173; Nichols, 1863.
It was the first time in modern
pugilism two SouthpawS met for a
title. Both depended almost en-
tirely on their left-hand punches.
Both men we're on the floor in the
first two rounds, but got up with
out counts. Nichols dropped Maier
with straight left in the first
round and Maier retaliated by send
ing the Buffalo man to his knees
with short left in the second
round.

afternoon when they cut loose with

The big upset of the first day
play was the downfall of the mighty

about principally because vincennes

out in front the Alices couldn't get
