M2 BROOKLYN DAILY EAGLE, NEW YORK, THURSDAY, JUNE 2, 1932 Pete Bostwick, Noted Amateur Rider, Makes Turf History at Belmont 28 Chess Problem No. MS Br SYDNEY WRIGHT WOOD (From Yorkshire Observer Buajell 6 Pieces Follow Cooper On Mashie Swing Golf Analysed Bell Telephone Team Regains Chess Cup; Edisons Close Up Kandy Kids Stop Just Before Dawn The cash customers were about to send telegrams to their homes, telling their people not to' worry or wait up for them, because they were apparently in for an all night session at Dexter Park last night.

VREELAND G. H. (Pete) Bostwick, the noted amateur rider, made turf history at Belmont Park yesterday. He rode the winner of the steeplechase, Silver Skin, and rode Ha Ha, winner of the Bellport Purse, a six-furlong spin on the flat. It has been many and many a day since another Jockey has accomplished that deed in one afternoon.

But those who did it were professionals. I don't know of any other amateur rider who has achieved It at a regular race track. By HERMANN HELMS H.

Y. usa. Pierce on Cree and Goodwin on Beelzebub. Goodwin, who was entitled to a ten-pound allowance because he had never ridden a winner, handled Beelzebub so carelessly that that once noted stake horse fell and was so badly injured that he had to be shot. Cree, after lead GREAT RIDERS OF OTHER YEARS In the days dead and gone these many years, Harry Harwood and Foxhall Keene were considered the great amatuer riders of their period.

Frequently they won races through the field against professional opponents, such as Pete Bostwick has been doing for the last three years. But I don't recall their ever winning a steeplechase and a flat race in one afternoon on a regular race track. iEnapper Garrison and Dare Devil FHzpatrick both rode in the latter years of their lives In races on the flat and over the jumps. They did well In both events occasionally. But Peter, as he is affectionately called by many members of the Meadowbrook Club and the United Hunts Association, is the first amateur to make this memor able grade a winner through the field and on the track during one lernoon.

giving all praise to Mr. Bost-wjck must be served. And lit saying that his mounts, Sliver Skin and Ha Ha, were pounds and pounds better than their opponents in each race it paints the picture without placing gloss on the rose. The noted amateur had only to hold to! the saddle and guide Silver Skin Up shortest way over the course In order to win. Silver Skin rounded out the other part of the job by practically leading all of the way and winning in a common canter.

HA HA LAUGHS AT OPPONENTS Ha Ha It was even easier for Mr. Bostwick. Ha Ha with all of his speed soon raced to the front fsom the start, and as he had drawn tl)e rail position Mr. Bostwick was not called upon to show any skill oj cleverness to get him out in front. Ha Ha soon put Lullaby 2d, the early contender, to sleep, and then 14 the stretch drew clear and won bj six lengths.

'And yet while Silver Skin and Ha Ha did much of the job In each race, still one must give credit where credit is due. Mr. Bostwick did hold to the saddle securely wjiile the professionals were doing tumbling stunts to the turf notably Seventh Round Oames (International rs. New York Ed Hon not lnoluded. Playing with clocks against 14 picked opponents at the Hungaria International Chess Club, Herman Steiner of the champion United States International team made a score of 11 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss.

Jack Feldman was the winner and paul Harmat and A. Simchow drew. Reuben Fine of City College won eight games and drew two for a total score of 91 and won first prize in the weekly rapid transit tournament at the Chess Club. The other prize winners were H. Helms, .73, apd T.

A. Dunst, 5'4-4'i. The recent death of Col. William C. Cornwall at the age of 71 deprived the Marshall Chess Club of one of its most respected members, who had been a director for some years.

Colonel Cornwell, born at Lyons, N. was long a resident of Buffalo, where he was prominent in banking circles. He was also a writer on financial affairs and an artist, having studied painting in Paris under Lefebre and Boulanger. High School Finalists Eight players have qualified for the-finals in the annual individual tournament for the championship of the InteTborough High School Chess League. Those who will play off for the prizes the following: First division Julius Partos, De Witt Clinton, lO'i Pincus Pes-sin, Seward Park, 9'A V- (after a tie with A.

Weinman of Flushing). Second division Matthew Green, Seward Park, 11 David Grossman, Flushing, 83 (after a tie with H. Prensky, Stuyvesant). Third division Edward Cohen, De Witt Clinton, and Morris Tabac, Stuyvesant, each 9 1. Fourth division Benjamin Gold- ing for a way and then acting as the contender to Silver Skin, fell a quarter of a mile from home.

So you see, Pete Bostwick at least clung to the saddle and made no mistakes with Silver Skin. Another point in favor of Mr. Bostwick was that he did manage to get off well with Ha Ha. If he had been slow to break at the start and had been shut off, the chance of the son of Polymellan would have been ruined. But he was alert and got his mount away winging.

For which Ha Ha rewarded him by winning with his mouth wide open- laughing at his opponents. LADY LUCK FAVORS GLORIFY Lady Luck, the fair goddess of chance, was all smiles to another fair patron of the turf Mrs. William Ziegler Jr, who races under the nom de course of the Middle-burg Stable. In a combination of speed, good fortune and other incidentals that were favorable to the success of Mrs. Ziegler's Glorify, bay filly, 2, by Sun Flag Follies, that filly won the Fashion Stakes, worth $6,150 net, by a head from another fair rival, Mrs.

H. C. Phipps, who owns Edelweiss. Happy Gal was third, a length away. Without wishing to detract from the merits of Glorify's fine performance, for she showed plenty of speed from the start and stood the brunt of the battle throughout, it must be said that that Indefinite term, racing luck, played a big part in the victory of Glorify.

Happy Gal, Edelweiss and Iseult, racing In different Interests but grouped In the betting, under the Fitzsimmons entry, were 2 to 5 favorites for the race. Rummond was backed from 20 to 1 down to 8 to 1 at post time. Glorify was at 12 to 1. The start was not a happy one, to say the least. Happy Gal and I Edelweiss were the chief sufferers.

Post's Funds Depleted By Aid, Asks Town Pay Rent By JOE GLASS As has been frequently pointed out, the mashie shot must be con I trolled. So an exaggerated swing won't do.

None of the great stars flatten the mashie at the top of the swing Into a horizontal position unless they are trying for all the distance the club can obtain. The pivot even for the full mashie Is limited to the hips and is curtailed In them. But duffers, eager to hit the ball, frequently let the arms go on back despite the body's position. Co-ordination Is thus destroyed. The body starts through with the forward swing before the arms do.

They never catch up and trouble results probably a slice. Study the drawings of Harry Cooper, Bill Mehlhorn and Tommy Armour, all of them marvels with the mashie. These will give you a good idea of the limit of a controlled mashie backswlng. Mehlhorn goes up a bit more than the others. "Long Iron Shots" is Glass' free, Illustrated leaflet.

To make matters worse, Crazy Jane raced a zigzag course and bumped into two or three of the fillies. The favorites were the victims. Not until the race was practically over did Edelweiss and Happy Gal loom up in the zone of contention.

Then Edelweiss closed very fast from far back and would have won In an other stride but Glorify was that one stride to the good. Marciana, backed from 15 to 1 down to 4 to 1, led all the way in the last race and won by open daylight. Then a protest was made after the finish that Marciana had cut across from the outside and bumped and Interfered with Seb to such an extent that the latter was cut on the legs. Marciana was disqualified and Sun Shadow awarded the race, with Seb second and Blaze White third. Orthodox Rabbis' Re-elect Silver Head Far Rockaway, L.

D. Leigh Colvin, president of the New York State Woman's Christian Temperance Union, in an address yesterday before the Queens-Nassau Spring institute at the Oyster Bay Baptist Church, said that if the Babylon Board Opposes Local -Highway Levy Regards 30 P.C. Levy on 'Area of Benefit' as Confiscatory Move Babylon, L. June 2 The Babylon Town Board yesterday instructed Supervisor Henry S. Johnson to oppose before the Board of Supervisors the proposal to establish an "area benefit" for assessing the cost of land acquired for the extension of the Sunrise Highway into this township.

Members of the board hold that the plan. If carried out, would result In the confiscation of some properties. This point was stressed by Charles Salomon who, addressing the board, said that such a plan should not be applied in Suffolk at this time, largely because the county as a whole has been paying for all such land acquisitions. "Property owners along the route of the Sunrise Highway extension are confronted with the prospect of having to pay a special assessment amounting to almost 30 percent of their entire assessed valuation." said Mr. Salomon.

"They may not have the money with which to make such payment, which would practically result in the confiscation of their property." Property within 850 feet north and south of the highway route would be included In the special assessment zone. This, opponents of the plan hold, is unfair because while the highway will bring benefit to a larger area, only those owning property within a limit area will be called upon to pay. "Suffolk County has not reached that stage of development where special levies must be made for improvements, as they are in the city," Mr. Salomon said. Supervisor Johnson said that the "area of benefit" plan, suggested by County Engineer A.

O. Smith, still has to win final approval of the Board of Supervisors. Long Island Unit D.R. Holds Card Party I i card psrty was held yesterday 'afternoon by the Long Island unit of the Daughters of the Revolution at the home of Mrs. Abram T.

Twenty-four attended. East Northport, L. June 2 The liberal use of their own funds for relief among their comrades has placed the Tolman B. Wheeler Post. Veterans Foreign Wars, in such a position that they are asking the Huntington Town Board to appropriate the sum of $200 for rental on accounts of the veterans' posts in the Town of Huntington.

American Legion, V. F. Wars and the Spanish-American War posts. This matter was brought up by Man Asks $12,352 From Town for Property Damage Centerport, L. June 2 Supervisor William Watt of the town of Huntington has been authorized to employ counsel to protect the town in the claim filed by John F.

Klein of Floral Park in the sum of $12,352. Klein is represented by W. Roy-den Klein, also of Floral Park. The basis of the claim is the widening by the township of Cove Road in this village. Klein charges that Town Highway Superintendent Ira W.

Lewis or about March 1 of last year, acting under the authority of the, Town Board, entered into his property on the east side of the Cove Road and took therefrom ap-soi valued at $1 per yard or $2,172, removed surveyer's stakes and also cut down and carried away trees to the value of $1,360. He also claims $2,000 consequential damage to the real property.

He serves notice that unless the claim is paid he Intends to commence an action to recover the amount with interest and costs. Supervisor Watt will have an attorney take immediate action in filing a rejection to the claim and the town will fight any action brought to collect the money.
