TRAINER OF NAG.
 PAYING 175 TO 1 IS SUSPENDED.
Mine Boy at S353.6O for g Has Sudden Reversal
 of Form at 'Gansett

Pawtucket, R. r, May 22-(U.P0 ---silver Stock Farms mine boy, a rank outsider, won the sixth race at Narragansett park by a fraction of . nose over the favored Rhodesia yesterday, paid the record price of 43600O on c @ Hnutuel ticket and kicked up c mess of confusion.
 Chief confusion was caused by the finish judges who, for the sec ond time in the 17 days the "elec- trio eye" has been fin operation at the local track, failed to wait for photographs of the finish and fash- ed the wrong winning number.
 Could Be Worse
 Judges flashed Rhodesia's number as the winner, but avoided an even more embarrassing situation by de- laying the posting of the red light which would make the figures of1- cial.
 No action was taken by track ofn- ciais against the judges, but Mine Boys trainer, A .E. Silver, was sus- pended pending an investigation. They were to question Silver in cone nection with the sudden reversal in form of Mine Boy, which was con- sidered 50 much of an outsider that only 63 persons had tickets on him at IFS to l odds. Silver claimed his horses showing was the result of using blinkers for the first time.
 Juicy Odds
 payoR on Mine Boy was $363.60 for win, 904.0O for place and 930.40 for show. Of those who held win tickets on him, one had a 410 ticket four had $6 tickets, 38 had @ and 10 had 60 combination tickets. An woman held a 96 tick ct fainted but recovered in time to cash in.
 When the local season opened May 2, Finish Judge Vince Treanor was discharged for flashing the wrong horse before electric eye" photos were consulted.

STEVE CARR TO
 MEET WINNER
Leroy Brown, Who Scored K. 0. Over Carr at New
 Haven Next Friday

New Haven. May 20-tUp)-- Catchmaker Tom McArdle last night booked Steve Carr, Meriden's favorite, for Q 1O-round return bout with Leroy Brown, Charleston, 8. O., light heavyweight, at the Arena on Friday night, May 20.
 Tn the first meeting of the afore- mentioned pair, Carr was knocked out in the fourth round at West Palm Beach, Fla., but claimed Q foul, stating after the fight that Browns right hand smash was be- low the belt. However, ringsiders were of the opinion Browns punch was Q legal one and found its way into Carr's mid-section to send the Nutmeg state lad out for keeps.
 Previous to that, Brown had de- feated Maxie Rosenbloom and gave Joe Knight Q great scrap. Billed as the light heavy titleholder of the south, Brown will be making his first appearance in the north. He will arrive here Sunday and finish up his training ct the Elm City gym. The undercard will be made by Matchmaker Al Caroly.

Today's Sport Parade
By Henry McLenore United Rrsss Stan COErespondentD

New York, May 22-(U.P) - At the risk of being placed in the three-gaited hackneyed class for trite sportswriters, I would like to declare that the only part of Q horse race that matters is the hn- ish.
 Everybody in the country probably knows this except the owners of horse racing tracks. I write this with the vague hope that the own- CTS will see 1t and be prompted to pay more attention to eliminating errors in Judgement at the finish line. It is on the finish of race that millions bet millions every day. These millions have right to know that when the numbers go up on the big board at the end of a race, those numbers are the right num- bers beyond the shadow of Q doubt. Wouldn't it be wiser for the track owners to spend more of their time and money in seeing to 1t that the results of the races are correct rather than that the track infield is a-bloom with flowers and teeming with pink fiamingoes, and that the clubhouse is an architectural gem fitted out with every luxury.
 The fact that the results, partic- ularly of late, have been question: able, does not point to dishonesty of any sort. It seems, rather, to point to inability on the part of the owners to make up their minds whether they are going to let the human eye, the judges eye, of the mechanical eye, the electric camera, decide as to the order of finish. Most tracks are using both now, and they don't seem to see eye and eye.
 The recent confusion at Belmont, c track which IS operated on the highest standards, shows the need for ridding horse race finishes of any indecision, or there is going to be trouble and plenty of 1t.
 On Monday at Belmont at the finish of a race, the judges an- nounced that "Mahdi" had won the race and that Above Par", horse with distinctive white markings, had run third. When the pictures, taken by the mechanical camera at the finish line, were developed, there

Two days later in an even closer race, when the crowd disagreed with the judges and demanded an oficial phOt0- graph, the officials prompted Q small riot when they said that there was no photograph, that the camera had blurred. The ofncials themselves are going to get blurred If that hap- pens too often.
 No one doubts that the camera did blur, but I say that they should have better cameras and more cam. eras and, if not cameras, some mechanical device which will take the guesswork out of calling the finish of Q race. Just how the prob- lem will be solved is not the affair of the race.goer. He pays his money and the track takes 1t, 50 1t is the duty of the track to give him Q square shake.

New York, May 22--Willie Mac. farlane believes that the upper Bal. tusrol course, where the National Open will be held, June { to 6, offers the faireSt and most search ing test of shotmaking skill that the professionals have encountered since the championship was settled at Winged Foot in 1929.
 1T judge Q championship course by the number of difficult clubs it compels you to play in an 16.hoie round" explains the veteran profess sional who beat Robert Tyre Jones in playofE for the Open title in 1925.
 "Say, for example, that the aver. age tournament competitor has IS clubs in his practical working kit. Well, Baltusrol will force him to take at least 12 of these weapons out of his bag during @ single round.
 "The holes ct Baltusrol are va- riable in length and run tho whole gamut of stroke values. There are back.breaking par lives. long two. shooters, easy par fours, full iron one-shot holes, and Hnashie pitch par threes. Tn other words you are asked to play Q wide variety of shots and must use your head in select- ing the proper implement.
 Average Golf Course
 Requires Few Clubs
 ':In my opinion Q course is not necessarily a real test of headwork and mechanical skill merely because 1t is difficult to score on. You could design 6 course with nothing but long par four holes over which 1t would be almost impossible to break 70, but 1t wouldn't be Q great golf test.
 "The chap who could follow c big drive with Q succession of spoons or long irons would win. He could get by with three or four clubs.
 "You'd be surprised to know how few weapons Q tournament golfer uses on the average course. Most layouts are nothing but drive and pitch paradiSes to @ top-fiight pro- fessional, or else the architect goes to the other extreme and stresses brute force.
 "My idea of 6 course is one that requires mental and mechanical finesse-that mixes 'eIm up.' as they say of baseball pitcher, and makes you play every club in the range scale. Baltusrol is that kind of a test. There'll be few 'deadheads' in caddy bags on the 19S6 National Open battle-ground"
 It Was His Day on Work,
 Sc Dante Led Qualiflers
 Jim Dante, who led the metro- politan district qualifiers, will play in his first National Open this year. What is more, he will be playing over the course where he learned the game as a caddy 25 years ago.
 Dante has heretofore given so llt- tie thought to competitive golf that on only one other occasion did he attempt to qualify in the Open. That was at Canoe Brook four years ago, and he failed to turn in a card.
 Although Dante had entered the tournament, he felt that it would be 6 waste of time for him to try to qualify. At the last minute he was persuaded to play. inasmuch as it was his day of anyway and he had nothing else to do. As a result he teed off at Seawane in the morn Ing and at Inwood in the afternoon without having ever previously seen either course.
 "T decided to play the ball and not the course, and was determined not Co lose my head, no matter what happened" smiles Dante. "As e result. I made no playing plans. ! hit every shot as it came up."
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-05-22

Dante comes from a golfiIig clan, which is more interested in teacne ing and clubmaking than in tour- naments. The Braidburn profess sional has wanted only one member of his family to become a good tournament golfer. That was his li-year-old-son, but the youngster desires to be a baseball player.

Shifting and blowing the nose is
indeed common. No one is immune.
Attacks occur more frequently in
winter than in the summer, but
any sudden changes of weather or
exposure of the individual to chilly
blasts results in many fresh colds.
The term "cold" is poor, but like
other questionable English words
it is probably here to stay. What
is generally meant is rhinitis, in
fiammation of the nasal lining, or
sinusitis, the inflammation of the
accessory nasal spaces. This state
ment then shows plainly that al
though there is only one nose, yet
it is divided into two parts. One,
the two nasal cavities proper which
are separated by partition and,
second, the accessory sinuses which
are cavities found in the bones of
the head, connected by small open
