MENOW SHOWED
 REAL CLASS IN TAKING S40,500
War Admiral Ran P GOT Race With l3O Pound
 Load at Suffolk
BY ROBERT WEBB United Press Staff CorreSpOndent) ]


 Boston, June 30.-(UP).-They were still talking today about the cleancut victory of Hal Price Head leys Menow who, carrying the featherweight of 107 pounds, romped home with an eight-length lead over classy field yesterday in the $50,- 900 added Massachusetts handicap at Suffold Downs.
 It was a day of surprises. The first, one that brought din of boos from the 66,O0O spectators, was the announcement that c. s. Towards Seabiscuit was laSt-minute scratch. A good slice of that 66,000 had come hoping to watch Seabis- cult and the War Admiral pound it down hte stretch in their first meet ing.
 The second surprise was the mile and an eighth race itself. War Ad- miral, 8 string of Il straight vic- tories that included the Derby, Preakness and Belmont last year behind him, went to the post 2-5 favorite.
 Heavily weighted at 130 pounds, and obviously not in form for the day, he trailed home fourth, out of the money and out of the favor of the crowd.
 It was great race for Menow, despite his light load. The three year-old led from stall gate to finish.
 Leading money winning tWo-year- old in 1897, Menow first cracked the headlines when he won the Bel mont futurity. He smashed Pom- poon's record to bits as he set a new worlds six and one-half fur long mark and waltzed home four lengths against the cream of the two-year-old crop.
 His victory yesterday was similar. He broke on top, perfectly ridden by Nicky Wall, who piloted Stage hand to nose victory over Seabis- cult in the $100,000 Santa Anita handicap, never slacked his stride until he had won the rich purse of $4O,550.
 Howard had planned to start Sea- biscuit until it was found, less than an hour before post time, that he had injured himself during a morn ing workout and was unfit to race.
 War Admiral, never in the hunt despite the odds, dd draw within three lengths of the flying Menow, but when the horses hit the turn for home and War Minstrelt went by him, the Admiral lowered his col OrS.
 War Admiral cut his right front foreleg three-eighths of a mile from the finish, but after the race, his rider, Charlie Kurtsinger, said that the heavy track and heavy impost were more important factors in his defeat.

fall to finish. Menow just wouldn't be beaten. He took charge at the start and defied one and all, includ- ing the mighty son of Man O War, to take it from him. War Admiral came close to doing just that, after a tremendous run down the back stretch. AS Menow whipped into the far turn that leads to the stretch and home, War Admiral came with in a head of collaring him. But Menow, the horse everybody thought was a quitter after a mile had been run, looked the champion in the eye and as good as said:
 I'm not quitting today. I'm going on, and I'm going fast"
 Menow did just that. In the next furlong he blazed to a lead of seven lengths, and finished with Jockey Nickie Wall riding him like a police chief in 8 parade
 That was the race-Menow's speed.

NEA Service Golf Writer
 Trouble blamed on faulty use Of the forearms or wrists in many cases can be traced to an improper grip. Check the grip when your ball strays off line.
 If it is found that the club is grasped in the palm of the hand, shift it to the fingers.
 Keep the palm of the right hand at right angles to the line of flight.
 Be sure the V's formed by the thumbs and forefingers point over their respective shoulders.
 With the proper grip the club head is squarely presented to the ball.

Winning Contract
BY THE FOUR ACES.
Right Play Loses.

"A FTER reading many bridge ar
ticles, it would appear that the
right play is almost always successful.
This is far from the truth, however.
In many instances a declarer may
make an absolutely correct play on
the hand and find that if he had
played it in another manner he would
have won the hand, although during
the game it appeared that he made
the correct percentage play. The
hand here illustrates a case where
the declarer carefully played and
counted the hand, only to find that
by doing so he was caused to decide
upon losing play.

West opened his five of spades, and
East cashed two spade tricks and
then led the queen of clubs. Declarer

then proceeded to trump out dummy's
three small clubs. This was done by
Immediately ruffing cluL and then
re-entering dummy with the ace and
king of trumps. Declarer thereby
counted East's hand to include seven
spades and four clubs, and since he
had followed on one heart, declarer
knew that East had held only one
diamond. He then decided that since
West had held five diamonds, it was
more likely that he held both the
queen and jack than that East held

In 1894 that day arrived. From
