CHICAGO, Aug. ii-Washington Park's experiment of giving away 830.000 free. to patrons who pick the most winners has proved a. booming business stimulant.

The idea is brand new. It Ls no lottery. One need not buy any tic- kets. All one has to do is invest 10 cents 1n a. daily program. ,

The attendance at the horse park is tip 50 per cent above that. ‘of a 1'08!‘ ago and come next Saturday the crush should be tremendous. 11m- ihone picks the first seven winners of the daily eight-race program by then the prize willroll up to $5.000 Somebody, then, is a. cinch to win. since the selector of the most winners on that day, not necemarlly seven. will take the pot of dough. I1 there are ties, the pot will be aplln.

If you haven't. heard about it. here's how it works:-

Every day the track will pay to the person picking the first seven winners on the card the sum of

. more than one person picks seven straight. the purse will be divided equally.

Should no one handicap seven winners through Friday, the money

given away on Saturday. The other 1.000 which has accumulated will be given away on the last day of the 30-day meeting, when a pot of $10,000 is possible.

l Graham Wins

From Neilson At Montague

After taking loads of punish- ment from the opening minute of the fight and after getting up from the floor no less than seven times game Jack Neilson last. night lost on a. technical knock- outJn three rounds to George Graham of Murray Harbor North, heavyweight chain ion f uebec. in.the main even of gslgkight card staged at Montague

After being on the canvas four times 1n the third session for counts of nine Ncilson went down for the final count from another hard right hook to the jaw. Refer- ee Joey McDonald had just reach- ed a count of three when the losers second hurled in the towel just as the bell clanged to end the session.

Although the fight. was Grah- am's all the way Nellson neverthe- less gave his heavier opponent plenty to worr about at times. In the first m nute of the scrap the Dane was down for nine from a. hard right to the solar plexus but he came up off the floor this time to mix matters with his adversary for the remainder of the round. -

In the second he was down once more but again came back up fighting. In the third however Graham's heavy hitting took too much out. of the loser and after being down four times his seconds did the right thing by throwing in the towel as a token of defeat.

Graham weighed 190 lbs. while Ncilson tfppfld the scales at 180.

In the best fight on the card Jackie Shaw of Charlottetown took a five round technP-l K.O victory over Flash McDonald also of the city. Evenly matched in weight and height. the pair of semi-finalists fought evenly for the first two rounds with both mixing matters plenty. In the third however the tide began to shift in Shaw's favor as he open- ed ti nasty cut over McDonald's right. eye. Coming out for the fourth the losers eye was almost completely closed and before the session had ended Shaw had open- ed another cut over the left eye. Hardly able to see McDonald was being speared with rights and lefts but failed to go down for a. count. In the fifth after several seconds of fighting McDonald was leaning helplessly against the ropes unable to see out. of his right. eye with the left also swell- ing and his seconds threw in the towel, Referee Gus Iongaphie a- warding the fight to Shaw on a. technical K. O. victory.

Clarence Gordon of Montague and Lloyd Carr of Charlottetown two BO-pounders fought to a 4- round draw in one of the pre- liminaries. The kids went over big with the large crowd in every round. .

The other preliminary on the card ended in the third technical knockout of the evening when Sonny Jones of Charlottetown was awarded a two-round victory over Johnny Stewart of Montague. Jones, e. nifty boxer was away a- head on points during the two rounds the fl hi: lasted but Stew- art was unabe to answer the bell for the third after wrenching his ankle badly in the preceding ses-

Zephyr Is Yacht Race by Cflglatg,

Zeghyr. ably manned

ain herry o Borden, yester captured the weekly yacht race ths is staged between boats of the Borden and summer Iilc Yacht clubs. completing a 6 and one half mile triangular course in one hour, 36 minutes and 40 sec- onds, 2 minutes and 14 seconds faster than the second place May- flower, sailed by Captain Fraser of Summerside.

Originally scheduled to start at

p.m. the race was held up over two hours due to the Surnmerside boats striking cairn winds on the way to Borden. .

he boats were nicely bunched getting over the line. Midnight, Pond. Summerside was first over followed by the Woodpecker, Tanton, Summerslde. the Zephyr. and Mayflower. Rounding the first bllfly Zephyr had taken the lead being thirty seconds ahead of the Mayflower followed in order by the Woodpecker and Midnight. On the second leg of the race May- flower took the lead and rounded the second buoy two minutes a- head of the Zephyr; Woodpecker still held third place qultg 9, Q15- tance behind but the Midnight striking calms and currents was forced out and failed to round the buoy, later being towed in by Commodore Cerettl.

At the start of the race the wind was a. light north but shifted be- fore the race was half over to the south and a light southwest. How- ever this did not. prevent thefans from Wilnessing an exciting duel between the Mayflower and Zephyr on the last leg of the course. Gradually cut- ting down the two minute lead the Summerslde boat had gained on the second lap Zephyr finally cflllsht up to her opponent and showing better sailing qualities in the light prevailing winds crossed the finish line in front by two minutes and a half, finishing at

7:18; Ma flower checked 1n at. 7: 18:30 wh 1e Captain Tanton of the Wood ecker brought hi5

craft over t e lineal: 7:45.

The Summerside sportsricnwcrc very well pleased with the whole affair and showed good seaman- ship. Commodore Ceretti was course Judge while Mayor Laird and A. B. Paquet assisted by en- glneer McMullen and electrician McAulay were starters.

Next Thursday promises to be a. gala day when yachts from Sum- merside, Charlottetown, and Bor- den leave for Shediac for the Shedinc races. The yachts will race to the New Brunswick town for the Terraplane trophy.

In the 2.16 Trot, Alliset. wok n new record of 2.11 in the first. heat, and in the second heat. of the 2.17 Pace Sully equalled his record of 2.10, while Jerry Bars lowered his record to 2.1211 in the first. heat. of the 2.25 Trot and Pace and Direct L. equalled his record of 2.1305 in the

second heat of the same race.

Needless to say, the track was iii good order or such performances could not be made and there was no trouble from dust, as sprinkler and brush were used after each heat. A new judges’ stand of up- to-date design caught the eye of the spectators and many favorable remarks were made regarding it.

The races got under way shortly after two o'clock and the long program of four classes involving twelve heats was concluded a1 about 5.30 o'clock. There was very little scoring. the starter getting his fields away quite well and the horses were out promptly so that added to the pleasure of the after- noon. Partial units of the new Godfrey Sound System were used and gave excellent voice recordings that could be heard distinctly all over the plant.

The first race called was the 2.14 Trot and Pace with Lusty Frisco 2.0711, Marvin Brooke 2.04M, Dude Potemipkin 2.07%, and Abner T. Clegg 2.04% as starters. They got away on the fifth score and Mar- vin Brooke was 1 ing at the quarter in 31% seconds. with Lusty Frisco a. full length in the rear, Abner T. Clegg third, Dude Po- templcin fourth. They continued in those positions until about. the three-quarter pole, Frisco was pulled out and put on a desperatc burst of speed, eating up Marvin Brooke and passing him rounding into the stretch, winning by a length in 2.09. The second heat Lusty Frisco led until near the three-quarter pole when Mar- vin Brooke was pulled out and flashed by him, winning by a. length in 2.1112. Lusty seemed wobbly and did not put up anything like the performance of the first heat. Examination afterwards found that a small stone had wedged between his shoe and foot, causing him t0 go rough. In the third heat Mar- vin Brooke was again a good win- ner. Lusty second. Dude Potempkin» beating out Abner T. Clegg in the two last heats for position and trotting a very fine race. The Clegg horse was not up to his usual form although in the last heat he show- ed quite a burst of speed from the three-quarter pole home.

2.16 TROT. This was a real good race with close finishes and surprisingly good time. There is nothing more interesting to watch than a trotting race where the horses are of about equal calibre, so this particular race was very popular.

The first heat. they got away on the fourth score and Squire Han- over, well driven by Tyndall Sem- ple. jumped out in the lead closely trailed by Hackfast and Allisct. with Star Dillon and Darkey Kal- muck in the rear. At. the three- quarter pole driver Vickers behind Alliset made his move to overtake Squire Hanover. Many thought it would be easy as he had trotted in 2.11'.~_- at North Sydney recently. However, he just managed to head the Hanover horse at the wire in the excellent time of 2.11, uihlch is a new record for him. Hackfasi. trotted a good race and finished a close ‘third. Star Dillon fourth. Darkey Kalmuck fifth.

The second heat was almost a repetition of the first. with Alllset coming from behind to win much more easily. In the third heat. Al- liset made e. break shortly after the Go and Hrickfast. jumped out in the Ieadholding it to the three- quarter pole when Squire Hanover trotted with him as a team until entering the home stretch he p11ll— ed away. a winner by a length. A1- lisei. third and Dnrkey Kalmuck, who went a good heat. fourth. Star Dillon was drawn.

2.17 PACE. Five pacers answer- ed the starters bell, but one of them, Ann Trcgdon. was d the first heat through hopples and harness breaking. There is nothing in the rule book that will allow a horse to start tinder such circum- stances, asno allowance is tirade for poor equipment. The remaining four put up a grand contest and while Sully 2.10 was not exactly in diffi- culties at any time in the three heats. yet the opposition from Aar- on L. and Nancy Carroll was

the front and “'21s never headed. Miss Victoria tucked 1n behind him and stayed there until the stretch, making a good try but falling short by half a length in 2.121;. Direct L. had a bit of tough going but. finished third with Balbo fourth, Lacopia Lass fifth Leluiid sixth and June Worthy seventh. In the second heat Jerry Bars lost the pole before the first turn was front. He made every post a win- reached and Direct L. went. to the ning one, although challenged by Jerry Bars several times he shook him off. A feature of this heat was the performance of Bnibo. who finished within half a length of the leaders. beating out Miss Vic- toria by a. small margin for third place; Leland fifth, Lacopla Lass sixth, June Worthy seventh.

Dire-ct L. had another fight on his hands in the third heat to ward ofi Jerry Bars. Jerry's driver evi- dently believing that he could out.- stey the Direct. horse. His tactics did not. work. however. and he faded in the stretch, Miss Victoria finishing a. close second. Jerry Bus third, with Leland a much improv- ed pacer fourth and Balbo fifth.
