The 4-year old bay gelding, owned by Mrs. Ada L.

Rice, Chicago, matched the track record for 1 3-16 miles on the turf of 1:54 3-5. The mark was set by Swaps in 1955. The even money favorite, John Zitnik's Manassas, was second in a photo finish with D. E. Love man Sunningdale.

Festin was fourth in the field of 12. The defeat was Manassas first in six starts on the turf this sea It was Hoop Band fifth tn- umph in 16 outings and was worth $34,400 to boost his earnings for the year to $72,500. His lifetime winnings stand at $114,360. Hoop Band paid $28, $8.60 and $5.40 to supporters in a crowd of 25,461. Manassas, beating out Sun- nmsdale by a nose for second, re turned $3.40 and $2.80.

Sunning dale price was $4.40. Festin. owned by Kenneth V. McMillan and T. C.

Dante of Los Angeles, set the early pace with Lucky Stable's Sam Slick and Jacnot Stable's Ei Zatibi, keeping close behind. At the head of the stretch, Heckmann put Hoop Band in front by three lengths. At the one-eighth pole he was merely galloping with about a five-length lead. "Hoop Band was a running fool today," said Heckmann. "He was crying to run at every stage, so rather than restrain him and get pinched somewhere, I decided to let him go out and run his business.

He opened up coming into the stretch and was going just as strongly at the end." The others finished in this order: Dotted Line; Bryn; his Hasty House stablemate, Mahan, winner of last year's Arch Ward Memorial; Spinney; Sam Slick; Clermont; El Zahbi; and Negrotrece. Jockey Charles Burr, aboard Manassas, said "there are no excuses to day. Manassas did his best. The total handle for the nine-race day was $2,037,356. AltheaGibson, Louise Brough To Clash Again MANCHESTER, Aug.

17 UJ Althea Gibson of New York City and Louise Brough of Beverly Hills, today became Sunday finalists for the 30th annual Essex County Club women's tennis tournament. The top-seeded Miss Gibson, first iNegro 10 win tne Wimbledon singles crown, was forced to the limit before overcoming fourth-seeded uanene Hard of Montebello, It was a rematch of their recent Wimbledon final, won by Miss uiDson, 6-2, 6-2. The second-seeded Miss Brnueh. champion here in 1942 and four- times former Wimbledon champion, won 6-1, 6-4 over third-seeded Mrs. Dorothy Head Knode of Forest Hills, N.

Y. For the 34-year-old Miss Brough It was her first Essex final as this Essex final. She won the title over Pauline Betz in 1942, lost it to Maureen Connolly in 1952 and again last year to Shirley Fry. For the 29-year-old Miss Gibson It was her fir stEssex final as this is her first competitive appearance In New England. That factor has lured the largest Essex galleries since 1938 with all seats sold out for the final three days.

The Brough-Knode duel proved relatively routine, but Miss Brough left the impression that she was playing the best she has in at least three years, an opinion she confirmed later. DARING MATCH In contrast, the Gibson-Hard fight was exactly that a fight all the way. The two played daring, slugging tennis and the suspense held until the final point when Miss Hard lobbed barely over the deep baseline for a 2-4 break against her booming but erratic service. The 21-year-old Miss Hard, much shorter and stronger than the 5-11 Miss Gibson, had many opportunities to win the first set. It finished with three successive service breaks, the 10th and last game being a 2-4 break against Miss Hard's service that included two double faults.

The second set was a parade for Miss Hard as Miss Gibson's service was crushed in the first, third and fifth games, with Miss Gibson winning one point out of 13 in the three games. Suspense mounted In the third set with four service breaks, two for each, from the fourth through the eighth games. Miss Gibson took the lead at 3-2, lost it at 4-3, then won it back at 5-4, all on service breaks. They carried service from there through three deuced games to square the match at 6-6. Miss Gibson then carried at 4-1 in the 13th game to lead 7-6 in games.

The 14th game proved the downfall for Miss Hard. She won the first point, lost the next three, fought back one match point with a perfect overhead then lost to her own over-deep lob. Fangio Wins Pole Position, Eclipses Three Lap-Marks PESCARA, Italy, Aug. 17 Oft-World driving champion Juan Manuel Fangio of Argentina bettered the Pescara track lap record three tunes today as he won top starting position for Sunday's Grand Prix auto race. Fangio, driving a Masterati, recorded speeds of 103.95, 95.46 and 92.9 mph over, the 15-mile course.

The track standard is 89.2 mph set in 1933 by Tazio Nuvolari. Fangio's marks will not become official since they were set during trials. Two Americans, Harry Schell and Masten Gregory, were among seven other drivers who also bettered Nuvolari's mark. Both drove Maserati's. Fangio's first mark of 92.9 was bettered later by Sterling Moss, of England in a Vanwall and Italy's Luigi Musso in a Ferrari.

Fangio climbed in his Maserati again and turned in his 95.46 mph mark to keep his No. 1 position. Later, he toured the course for his 103.95 mph mark.

But Pavne then got his swing grooved and won 10 of the next 12 games to run out the match.

N. Aug. 17 (ffl Ralph Lowe's dandy little colt Gallant Man and his good friend Willie Shoemaker did the expected today. They teamed to win the Travers Handicap in a speedy two minutes, four seconds for the mile and a quarter. Shoemaker steered the East's leading colt to a half length triumph over Bureaucracy, with Field of Honor seven lengths back of the winner.

A crowd of 27,172 made Gallant Man top weighted at 126 pounds, a prohibitive favorite. He paid $2.30, $2.20, $2.10. Bureaucracy, ridden by Bill Bo-lands returned $3.50 and $2.10. Field of Honor paid $2.10. A slim field of five started the 88th running of the nation's oldest stake race.

Olson Gives Weight PORTLAND. Aug. 17 (fft- Irish Pat McMurtry, Tacoma, had a 4'4-pound advantage over Carl "Bobo" Olson, ex-mid dleweight champion now residing in Vancouver, when the two weighed in again today for their 10-round heavyweight fight at Portland Meadows tonight. The first of all foreign singles final since Aussies Frank Sedgman and Ken McGregor batttled in 1952 is set for tomorrow, Richardson ran into a series of accurate baseline and net shots, a fireball service and cat-like court coverage. Anderson had the former Rhodes scholar shaking his head.

Anderson snatched the service from Richardson in the second game of the first set and never let up. Richardson took advantage of Anderson's momentary, service lapse in the second set to square the match. Green was stubborn in the first set. He kept Davies at bay until the Englishman managed the first service breakthrough in the 12th game. Green came closest to ex tending him in the ninth game of the second set when he had a 15-40 advantage, but lost it as Davies came on with five straight points That was a dying for the Miamian as Davies snared his service on the next set and quiet ly eliminated him in the third set to become the first non-seed to gain the finals since Harry Likas in 1948.

Likas, lost to Bill Trabert in the final. Ashley Cooper of Australia and Whitney Reed of Alameda, Calif. reached the doubles finals along with Bob Wilson and Mike Davies of England. Cooper and Reed stopped Australians bod Mars ana Roy Emerson 6-4, 6-2, 6-2. Wilson and Davies defeated Aus sies Neale Fraser and Anderson 6-3, 6-3, 4-6, 6-1.

Richardsons trouncing at the hands of young Anderson was a severe blow to the United States' hopes in the Davis Cup challenge round. Despite the loss of Lew Hoad, who joined the Jack Kramer nro troupe after winning the Wim bledon title, Australia still is considered tough to beat and Richardson is the most consistent of the U.

Sfranop. a 2fi-vear-old straieht- down-the-middle artist, seemed to be on his wav to a solid par round until the last two holes. Missed putts of five feet on the 17th and seven feet on the 18th produced the bogies and sent him over par by two strokes. He opened up with five successive pars and then he got the gallery of 75 or so really buzzing with a birdie three on the 340-yard seventh. A sweet nine-iron shot was punched to within two inches of the cup for a gimme birdie.

He averted disaster on the par- four eighth when a four-foot putt for par eased to the hp of the cup, stopped cold and then teetered into the hole, causing the thin-featured machine company salesman to point skyward and volunteer the information that "He smiled on me that time." His putter went sour for the first time on the next hole where his 160-yard tee shot landed on the green's fringe and he putted eight feet past the pin, missing the return shot to take a bogey for a nine-hole 35. A succession of mid-dle-of-the-fairway pars brought him safely to the 17th, but the slight collapse there was nothing serious. Ball, meanwhile, who had equal led par with his Cavalier teammate, Buzzy Outten of Portsmouth on Fri day, was moving' along with a minimum of trouble for a pair of36's. Outten, however, hurled completely out ot contention with a horrendous 80 for a 150 total. Spencer, who since Thursday, has been insisting "I can't sink the short putts, stated solemnly after canning a 10-tooter for par on the 18th.

Jones Wins ServiceTitle Sarazevis 71 Costs Lead In Senior Meet SPOKANE, Aug. 17 WJ Charley Sheppard of West New ton, wrested the lead from Gene Sarazen today after 54 holes of the $12,500 National Senior Open Golf Tournament.

Sheppard shot a two-under-par 68 for a 54-hole total of 201, two strokes better than the veteran Sarazen who had a one over 71. Sheppard, 51, shot brilliant golf with four straight birdies on the back nine and missed a chance to go even further ahead with a double bogie on the 17th. Sarazen, 55-year-old two-time U. S. Open champion, got fine distance with his drives bu was having trouble on the greens and lost his lead for the first time since the 72-hole tourney started Thursday.

Apparently unhappy with his game, Sarazen tossed his iron in disgust after overdriving the green on his approach shot on the 11th hole. Sarazen dropped into a tie for second with Al Watrous of Birmingham, who shot a 69 for a 203 total. Fred Wood of Vancouver, B. and Jimmy Hines of Palm Springs, both shot sub par 68s to rank next at 204.

Norman Jenkins and Harold Smith were the big guns in the Gloucester attack, each collecting three hits including a bases-empty home run. Johnny Hogge also rap ped out three singles for the winners.

For the losers, John Langford was the leading hitter with a pair cf one-baggers. Sutton, despite his easy triumph, fanned only two and walked six.
