day by whipping seven rivals in

quarters of length in front of his
arch foe, C. S. Howards Porter'S

which had installed him as a 6-5
favorite, cheered Justify.
Harry L. Warmers Paper Boy ran

The Son of Messenger, q cast-ofi
by William Du Pont and runner-up

set by the filly, Mrs. Vera S. Bragg S
Transient.
StaretOr's Win Decisive.

Owner Gets S47,25O
With Some Chance,
Wishbone Helping
Calumet Colts Dominate
Race All Woy;; Result
Is Big Stoke Record
By CHARLES DUNKLEY,

Associated Press Sports Writer.
CHICAGO, July 12.-Warren
Wright of Chicago, owner of famed
Whirlaway, entered three 2-year-
olds in the rich Arlington Futurity
today and scored clean SWeep-an
astonishing and rare result on the
American turf.
His trio, which dominated the race
from start to finish, charged down
the sunlit stretch to loud cheers
from the crowd of 10000, which had
backed the entry heavily.
The winner was Sun Again, a
sturdy son of Sun Teddy-Hug Again.
Some Change was second and Wish
bone third.
Never in the l1-year history of the
race was it so completely one-slded
and so far as available records show
1t probably was the first time in
history of American racing that
such result occurred, at least in a
major stake.
Victory Nets S47,250
The value of the race, with eight
starters was S48.750 and the Chicago
sportsman grabbed all of it except
$500 which went to Hal Price
Headley of Lexington, KY. whose
colt, Anti Climax, finished fourth.
Sun Again, weighted with 122
pounds and spiritedly ridden by
Jockey Wendall Eads, sprinted the
6 furlongs in 1:12l5.
The Wright entry. all bred on his
famed Calumet farm in the blue
grass of Kentucky, paid $3.50 to
win. $500 to place and $500 to
show.
Sun Again ran across the finish
two lengths ahead of Some Chance
with Wishbone another four lengths
back. Struggling back of Anti
Climax were Thomas Piatts Bold
Chance, Milky Way Farms Dog
patch, Mrs. Alice Fairbanks Sher-
mans Home Wolf and the Valdina
Farms Valdina Orphan, which fin
tshed last.
Sun Again accounted for S34,655
of the purse, Some Chance collect
ing $4,000 and Wishbone $4,000. AL
together Wright pocketed SAT $50.
Wright's First Futurity Win.
1t was Wright'S first victory in
the Futurity and he won with
vengeance. His WhirlaWay finished
third back of Swaine and Valdina
Groom in the 1910 event.
Except for a brief show of speed
by Home Wolf, the lone Eastern
invader in the race. and Dogpatch,
the Calumet triumvirate had the
race at its mercy.
Heading into the stretch it was
all over. The Calumet colts, trained
razor sharp by shrewd Ben Jones,
left Home Wolf far behind. Down
the stretch galloped the Calumet
colts. Wishbone was on the inside,
Some Chance in the middle and
Sun Again on the outside as the
three ran.
Then Sun Again charged into
triumph. His sire. incidentally,
ran in the 1885 Arlington Futurity,
finishing eighth in the 15-horse
fold

the casualty list. His wife was un-
aware of the mixup and believed
him dead for q hours until a re-
vised list was issued.

Removal Of Rails Too
Costly

A proposal whereby the WPA
would assist in relieving the existing
steel shortage in national defense by
removing some 1900 tons of steel
now lying in abandoned street car
tracks in Is central Ohio counties
would be quite costly in Kenton,
Safety-Service Director d. M. An
stine estimated.
1t is estimated that there are some
295 tons of old steel car rails under
the streets of Kenton. On the
north end of Detroit street, Anstine
said, the rails are under some four
inches of paving while on the south
end they are under both brick and
asphalt paving some II inches deep.
The cost of salvaging the steel by
digging up the streets would great
ly exceed any benefits derived from
the use of the rails, Anstine believes.
