July 25 While all of the favorites but one continued to advance in the junior division of the play there were upsets aplenty in the boys' division of the New Jersey center tennis tournament yesterday at the Montclair Tennis Club. But one of the originally seeded four remains to carry on in the closing bracket of the competition.

Realizing that an open market removed all possibility of "syndicate odds," the admirers of the thoroughbred, fairly poured through the gates of those three meetings which were held during the Spring and early Summer. A grand total of 413.962 fans attended the Jamaica, Belmont and Aqueduct meetings as a vivid contrast against the attendance of only 212.085 at (he same meetings last year. Those figures compare favorably with the attendance figures of other years the years known as the halcyon days of racing. It shows that the Increase has been most marked over last year and so far no days have been conspicuous when only the "regulars" appeared.

GREEN EES they're not in the saddle, so that the races are oNer. The dogs are under the public's eye in the "paddock" before the races. The bugle blows. Attendants strut before the judges with the handsome dogs. 1 Then the attendants jog off, in perfect order.

The dogs are re- leased from the stalls when the phony rsbbit runs past on its steel rails. Funny things happen. Sometimes a dog mat is winning by a wide margin gets lonesome up front, waits for the pack, and starts a fight. Sometimes a dog hops the I fence and starts cross-country. And sometimes I win a bet.

In these figures you will see nearly $800,000 more than that of last year. Those three racing as- sociations paid out $550,280 in stakes and purses this year as gainst a corresponding outlay of $413,850 in the Spring and Summer of 1933.

Those figures put to rout the killjoys who when the measure of open betting was proposed, whined that the public was too poor to go to the tracks; that racing had lost its flavor and Its flare, and that In these days of business depression the public could afford only cheaper recreations and amusements. Belmont Park, needless to say. had the largest attendance and distributed the mast money in stakes and purses to horsemen. During 22 days of racing a total of 184,414 racegoers passed through the gates of whom 156.608 paid. The receipts from all sources were $532,068.28.

And the money paid weight. Root, who made a fortune in the movie game after quitting the ring, always hops across the country from the Coast to see the big fights in New York. Here is one of his funniest yarns: Root. clever fellow, was fighting a dangerous dumbhead named Fin-nery. Finnerty was dangerous because he could wallop.

For several rounds oRot did as he pleased with the thickhead. But, getting careless, Finnerty suddenly nailed him with a terrific chin punch. Root got up, but it was several rounds before he coud get his stride again. By that time Finnery was CONVINCED that sooner or later he would again nail Root and knock him out. Root finally his chance and ended natters.

A few gallons of water and violent slappings and massagings finally brought Finnerty around. He opened his eyes, shook his head, smiled and chirped: "A tough fight all right. But I KNEW I'd get him sooner or later!" Whr noe pit? Golt after business hours and have dinner at the Club. Faculties for bridge and afternoon teaa. Excellent cuisine.

BIG JUMP IN ATTENDANCE Last year during 18 days of racing Belmont Park attracted 83,343 persons 100,000 less than in 1934 of whom 67,314 paid. Its gross receipts then were $190,537.46, and It distributed $255,150 in the form of prizes for horsemen. It paid no tax, save a realty tax, to the State.

Belmont's grade of racing lived up to that of other years. It paid out more in prizes than it took in from all sources. It had a clear loss of $54,653 which was made up by the stockholders of the Westchester Racing Association. Jamaica this Spring attracted (luring HA il days of racing a total attendance of 120,102, of which 108,076 paid. Its entire receipts were $379,532.

And its prize distribution, stakes and purses, to owners, $120,475. It paid the State jockeys. Monkey jockeys. "Yeah," said one of the track attendants. "Mrs.

David's family, we calls 'em. A funny lot. them monks. But she sure has 'em trained." Back in the kennel house Mrs. David, wife of Spot David, one of the real veterans of the dog-racing game, confessed all.

She talked as she seated the monks in their saddles for the next race. She had to strap the clever little fellows on. "Not because they'd jump off, mind you," she said. "Oh, no. They love to ride.

They wait for their turns to get up on the dogs. But we have to strap 'em so they can't reach down and chew their shoes off. They don't mind being dressed, but they hate thce shoes!" Gels a Spanking Little Jerry bounced like a creature full of springs and electric shocks as Mrs. David tried to fasten him down. He pulled her hair.

He untied the bow on her dress. He reached for her purse, emptying contents like a perverse child. Finally she had to spank him, and he sat still. But before she sent him out to the post she Implanted a great big kiss on his tiny monkey forehead. "You have to humor them," she said.

Although Mrs. David handled all the monks that night, she says her husband does the bulk of the training. "It was all his Idea," she said. "Others copied the Idea later. He was also the first to make monkey THE INSIDE STORY OF BAYUSS realty tax tacked on as part of the expenses.

ALL TRACKS SHOW PROFIT Next in line was Aqueduct with $201,377 in the form of net profit from the receipts of $380,709 taken in from all sources. The prize dis-ti'bution to horsemen of $139,850 was In excess of that of Jamaica by more than $19,000. It also paid to the State $39,482, which was nearly $2,000 more than Jamaica paid. And while its attendance for the 21 days was 10,000 less than that of Jamaica, its gross receipts iLTdllrLiiLk were more than $1,000 greater. But Aqueduct's profit was $20,000 less tax of $37,890.18.

During the Spring meeting of 1933 the attendance was only 60,236 of which 48,986 paid. Its prize distribution mounted to $77,800. JAMAICA MAKES MOST MONEY Aqueduct at Its meeting this year, 21 days, attracted 109,446 persons of which 83,135 paid. Its gross income was $380,709.60. And It paid to horsemen $139,850.

It paid to the State $39,482.70. A year ago at the same period of the season Aqueduct had an attendance of only 68,000 of which 12.881 was than Jamaica cleaned up.

This, because its liberality in the form of turf prizes, $289,995. Its taxes to the State were $52,266, bringing total of expjendltures to $342,251.

This, when subtracted from $532,068, left a net of From which the first six months of a realty tax of approximately $39,000 had to be deducted and the running expenses such as clerk hire, gatemen and Pinkertons had to be withdrawn. But all of these figures show one big advantage over 1933. And those figures spell the magic term P-R-O-F-I-T. complimentary, us receipts were $159,483.50 from all sources and $80,900 was distributed In prizes. A close inspection of the official figures sent out by the State Racing Commission shows that of the three tracks, Jamaica cleaned up the greatest profit.

Its receipts were $379,532. Jamaica was niggardly in the form of added money to stakes and purses which mounted to $120,475 the smallest mount distributed by any of the three tracks. That sum with paid out to the State left the Jamaica treasury with $221,167 net receipts.
