(11 Innings) had even as lively an interest in the result These were the countless thousands in whose pockets nestled a sweepstake ticket that coveted card which annually admits some one within the cates of financial independence. Those who came to the Downs found that rain had fallen during part of the night, dampening the comfort but not the good nature of the campers, who, arriving from afar by foot, by motor or by carriage, had made themselves at home- on the hillside. The day broke gray and drear, ana the weather man held out little encourage-ment. The bookmaker? busier perhaps than the oracles gypsies and 'peddlers who plied their trades among the colorful crowd, found that in the public mind the result of the race had never been a more open question than today. Own ers, trainers and racing men generally, although prepared to back their respective fancies, hesitated to speak pos itively and concurred tnat tne prospects were never more puzzling.

Town Guard, displaced by Papyrus in first place betting last night, was reinstated as the favorite early today. Others well thought of were Pharos, Eilanerowan. Leealitv and My Lord. The slight rains tnat ten in uie eany morninsr were followed by occasional glimpses of sunshine, but around racing time there was nothing in the weather to cause the spectators to abandon their furs and top coats. Thousands of Americans ningiana placed heavy bets on Town Guard be cause he was to be ridden by the American jockey Archibald.

He was ruling afavorite in the betting as the racing hour approached. Despite a great stream of vehicles on the way to Epsom Downs there was little congestion because oi me con trol of traffic by wireless from, air planes along the route.

DEMPSEY PLANS TO IMPROVEHIS FOOTWORK Grea.t Fnlls. June 6 Under the compelling urge of clearing skies, pleasant weather and a fair-sized crowd.

Jack Dempsey returned to sparring workouts today at his training camp, a mile from the city limits'. The world's champion went five snappy rounds against three light men. Against Frankie Grandette. Portland flyweight, Dejnpsey worked two rounds. He engaged Harry Brown, local featherweight, in one round and sparred two sessions with-Leo Moore, California featherweight.

AH three boxers appeared like pyg mies in the ring against Dempsey. It was a sparring workout, arranged for the purpose of improving the champion's speed. The champion received h's best workouts from Grandette and Moore. These two boxers, confident that the champion would withhold his punches and box only on the defensive, tore into Derop-sey with reckless abandon and with no more- regard for the champion than if he was a man of their own weight. The result was a snappy drill, in which the crowd was impressed, with the defensive work of the man who is to defend the ring's richest title against Tom Gibbons at Shelby on July 4.

Brown, a new arrival at the camp, was timid, with the result that this round was the most uninteresting of the five. According to present plans. Dempsey will spar daily for the rest of the week with the lighter men of the camp. Manager Kearns has decided on the program for two reasons. The chief reason is that Kearns wants to conserve th strength of Dempsey's heavier sparring partners men like Harry Drake, Jack Burke.

Frank Power and George Godfrey so that they will be prepared when Dempsey swings into two weeks of hard training next Monday.
