Rated the going-away favorite in pre-race handicapping, Bonefish gave Dancer some rough moments He finisted ninth in the first heat, the same position in which he started. "'I was very disappointed in the first heat.

He couldn't have warmed up any better. Why he had such a bad race, I never know," said Dancer, three-time winner of the Hambletoman Stakes crown after Saturday's event. The colt took the No. 2 spot in the second heat after Dancer was forced to pull away in the first turn to avoid an accident In the third heat, Bonefish turned on the speed at the three quarter mark to place first by a length and a half in 2:00 3-5 Fran Tarkenton paces Vikings to win Fran Tarkenton completed 15 of 21 passes for 214 yards and two touchdowns Monday night to lead the Minnesota Vikings to a 20-7 National Football League exhibition win over the i a i i i Bloomington, Minn Buffalo quarterback Joe Ferguson threw two first- quarter touchdowns to lead the Bills to a 34-20 win over the Cleveland Browns in Cleveland.

Since a newspaper article described Ms Svendsen's exploits, amateur boxing clubs in the Reno-Sparks area have been receiving applications for many aspiring female boxers. "I just don't understand it," said Ray Tavares of the Reno Jets, who has 10 girls waiting to sign up with his team. "I believe girls are making a big mistake by getting involved in boxing and other contact sports. They just can't take punishment like a boy can, and they might get hurt." Johnny Rogers, president of the Sparks Junior Boxing Club, hasn't heard from any girls yet, but he expects to. "I don't know how many we're gonna get, but I hope it's not too many," Rogers said.
