C. VREELAND Questionaire's fine performance in the Colin Purse, one mile and a furlong, overshadowed several other interesting races at Belmont Park yesterday. His victory was a hollow one. As. a race it was no contest.

But the keen interest to the students of form rested in the fact that after stepping a mile and a furlong in 1:49 he then was ridden out an extra furlong. He stepped the mile and a quarter in 2:03 4-5. This was a cracking good workout for the rich Belmont Stakes on Saturday. Although he carried 16 pounds less than he will have up on Saturday his weight yesterday was 110 pounds the way he finished his against this wisplike nuisance. He kept squaring off and plodding in, and now and then that straight left would find its mark.

But Rosen-bloom, ever bobbing, ever bouncing, was In and out a score of times, having thrown a few of his flecking punches the while. In the fifth Rosenbloom was warned for using his open hand, but it didn't cramp his style at all. Toward the end, when he saw that Hoffman was too strong to take a knockout, Maxie whlled away the time with his clownish antics. Even they made a hit with the large crowd attracted to the Queensboro opening. Gallagher Scores Kayo Marty Gallagher finally punched the veneer of hardness off his man and got Rugglrello the Rugged by a technical knockout in the eighth round of a scheduled ten.

Husky Salvatore Rugglrello was at the Washington boy's mercy in the clinches, where he Invariably came in contact with a few unexpected Jolts and mayhaps an elbow once or twice, too. Ruggirello's left eye was closed when the referee stepped between them with 15 seconds of the eighth round left. Another former tyro of the amateur ranks was the victim of Bob Olin in an eight-round bout. Ralph Flcucello was the official victim, though almost every one thought he had outpunched and outgeneraled Olin by mofe than the width of a ringside seat. Ed Garvey, former Notre Dame football star and later a coach at Uninteresting Bout Features Reopening of Queensborough Arena Maxie Roseubloom; boxing's leading slapstick artist, didn't work so nard at his trade In the Queensboro Stadium last night Big George Hoffman, 198 pounds of him, got the open hand only when he started acting up, and that wasn't often.

But when Maxie wasn't slapping he was loafing, and that was worse. Bosenbloom acted like a moody, temperamental child all evening. He would dodge, duck and smirk at Hoffman's ponderous punches and fight only in fits and spurts. Sometimes, rather frequently, in fact, in the fourth and fifth rounds, Maxie would awake from his reverie to find Hoffman's left tucked under his chain. Then would follow a rare display of punching pyrotechnics, with Ro-senbloom working away like a traffic cop in a snowstorm, but missing as often as not.

Hoffman had very little to use Scot a similar distance in front of Panasette. This showing of the daughter of Whlskbroom against two of the best colts of the spring caused trainers and owners to regard the Whitney pair as the winners, barring an ac-rident. Trainer Healey declared to win with Zelide, a daughter of Mad St. John's College, returned to the Continued From Pate 1 him luck as one Blenheim-Dougherty to another.

T. Dougherty of Queens. V. S. Horse Far Back The American-owned and bred contender, the Scout II, owned by William Woodward of New York, raced down the finishing stretch leading a group of four horses which finished 50 yards behind the main pack The Scout II could easily have finished 14th.

but Jockey J. Childs pulled his mount in and allowed another horse to shoot ahead nf him. The Woodward colt finished 15th in the field of 17. Silver Flare was fourth: Trews, fifth: Seer, sixth; Noble Star, seventh; Ballyferris, eighth Dick Swlveller, ninth: The Sponger, 10th, and Ruston Pasha. Bargany, Grand Salute, Tetragem, The Scout 2d, Sea Rover and Parthenon brought up the rear.

Anothei Aga Khan entry, Rus-tom Pasha, had been regarded more highly than Blenheim in the wagering, holding the position of second favorite at odds of 15 to 2. The Scout 2d had hard luck In the first "naif-mile and was unable to make up the ground lost. It was the first time the Aga Khan had won the blue ribbon of the turf. Iliad Big Surprise Blenheim evidently was thought well of by the betting fraternity, as his price was comparatively short at 18 to 1. The main surprise, after the defeat of the favorite, however, was the success of Iliad, which was quoted at 26 to 1 in the betting The stakes were 3,000 (about with extras.

After considerable delay, caused by Silver Ffare lashing out repeatedly, the horses got away, and at the first half mile Rustom Pasha, bearing the colors of the Aga Khan, was leading, with Diolite and Lord Astor's Trews close up. The Scout 2d, drawn well in No. 7 piace, was behind and unable to get through, and at the critical turn Tattenham Corner where Rustom Pasha and Diolite were still leading, The Scout 2d had no chance to make up the lost ground. Thereafter Blenheim came through and. though challenged by Iliad, finished a length ahead, with the favorite, Diolite, In third place Winner Meets King After the race the Aga Khan went to the royal box and received the King's congratulations.

Smiling broadly, the Aga Khan remarked on the showing of his two horses in the race Blenheim and Rustom Pasha. "We had never tried them over the same course," he said. "They did not have the same companion- How the, Robin Are Hilling the Ball Grid Star, Dies at 56 Samuel Brinckerhoff (Brink) Thorne, one of Yale's football giants during the era of Heffelfinger and Hinkey, Is dead at the age of 56.

Millionaire Are Made Millionaires were made In the space of a few moments this afternoon through a world-wide network of sweepstakes which all depended on the outcome of the Derby. The famous Calcutta Sweepstake alone was worth $4,500,000 to the holders of the lucky tickets, which cost about $3 each. Two machinists employed In a Coventry motor works drew one of the three Blenheim tickets in the Calcutta Sweepstakes. It is worth half a million dollars, but they sold half their share in the ticket before the race for $13,000. It will probably be several days before the money actually is delivered, however, on account of the rccessity of undergoing certain formalities.

Altogether, more than $10,000,000 in sweepstakes alone hinged' on the Derby The Baltic Exchange in London sponsored a $400,000 sweepstake. The London Stock Exchr.nge sold Derby tickets aggregating 3300.000 and the Liverpool Cotton Exchange had a $250,000 sweep stake. Many other smaller sweepstakes were operated privately by large city business firms. Diolite Ticket Sold Some of those who drew horses disposed of portion of their chances for ready cash before the race, thus insuring a profit. H.

C. Reeves, an Insurance agent who drew Diolite In the Calcutta Sweep, sold his ticket before the race for $105,000. Although Diolite failed to win, the syndicate which purchased the ticket from Reeves will almost double the money invested as the horse placed third. There was great disappointment among the American racegoers who dotted the grandstand tnd equal disappointment among British backers who put monev on the Scout II because of ho'pes that the American colt would be a great stayer over thp eruelling distance. Cold grey skies greeted early race fans who had walked since dawn to take up vantage points around the course.

Thousands poured in hours be fore race-time by special train. motor cars, and charabancs, many of the last named coming from towns of Scotland and Northern England. Society people arrived from London and thereabout in top hats and morning coats, but the people on the course were ready for rain and mackintoshes were the favorite outer covering for both men and women. Early strollers on the famous heath had a thrill when Diolite, the favorite, was brought from his quarters and given a canter with a stable companion. By the time of the first race there was an enormous crowd on the course estimated at possibly over a half million.

A large crowd waited outside the royal entrance to the grandstand for the arrival of King George and Queen Mary. The King and Queen, with the Duke of Gloucester, arrived at the Downs soon after 1 o'clock followed by the Prince of Wales and the Duke of York, each in his own car. The had trailed the King's car from Buckingham Palace. The King, who suffered a touch of rheumatism last week preventing his appearance at the Royal Courts, was In morning clothes. He wore a top hat and his usual white carnation in his buttonhole.

The Queen was in a long coat and wore a togue of rose beige. A deafening roar of welcoming cheers greeted the royal car as it threaded its way slowly along the thronged road. The King looked jovial and well as he stepped out and moved into the enclosure.

QUESTION AIRE -LEADS ALL THE WAY In the race for the Withers Stakes, which Whichone won on Saturday from Swinlield and Star-patic, he carried eight pounds less than stake weights. His mile was in much slower than the one hung up by Questionaire yesterday.

But those racegoers who base their handicaps on time should not overlook the lact that the track on Saturday was extremely slow one of the slowest of the meeting. The going a Belmont yesterday was resilient in the extreme. Prom a time standpoint one cannot compare Questionaire's race with the victory of Whichone. And yet, in the race for the Belmont, Whichone will top Questionaire in the odds. James Butler's home-bred colt.

that first saw the light of day at his splendid farm, East View, in the Westchester Hills, so far outclassed his opponents, Crucifixion, Yarn and Nile Maiden, that he opened the fa-vorite at 1 to 2. He would probably have gone to the post at 1 to 4 or 1 to 5, which he should have been if there hadn't been a hot tip on Crucifixion, a brown colt owned by the Lone Star Stable. This fellow was well touted early in the meeting in a bunch of maidens, but was beaten. This largely because he was practically left at the post. It was on the showing that Crucifixion made on that occasion that many accepted the advice handed out by the paddock sharps that the son of Negofol would win.

The result was that Questionaire, although a top-heavy favorite, was steady in his odds. Crucifixion was a close second choice with long odds against Yarn and Nile Maiden straight and place. Questionaire led from the start to the finish. He kept increasing his advantage. Crucifixion remained within striking distance for six furlongs and then Questionaire improved his advantage by such a big nap that he won by himself, nearly 10 lengths to the good.

This performance and his additional workout strengthened the belief of the admirers of the son of Sting that his fine ract against Jack High and Balko In the Metropolitan, when the former hung up a new record of 1:35 for a mile was no "fluke." Crucifixion tired so badly in the stretch that Yarn Just beat him out for the place. ZELIDE WIN'S THE FASHION STAKES Harry Payne Whitney's Zelide, a filly of fine size, conformation and proportion, won the Fashion Stakes, one of the old-time events for fillies, worth $6,800 net.

Bradley's Baba Kenny. Mr. Whitney's other Itarter, Panasette, was fourth. Trainer Thomas J. Healey sent the Whitney pair to the post hot favorites at 11 to 20.

They were perfect pictures of equine perfection. The reason they were made such heavy favorites was not due to the fact that Zelide had won her previous race in fine fashion, but be-rause Panasette, a maiden, had been a keen contender in the race for the Juvenile Stakes, which was won by her stable companion, Equipoise, by less than saddle girths with Happy Collins Beats Cobb's Record Eddie Collins set a new record for long service in the majors, says Sporting News, when he went to bat as pinch-hitter for the Philadelphia Athletics at Cleveland May 11.

But it was her first start in nearly a month and oecause of that there were whispers detrimental to her chance. The astute handicappers would have none of her.

Whitney. Would Like Youngsters To Get More Chance A player 30 years old and a regular on the ball club that employs him has the hunch that the reserve force of a team should be made up of veterans and not of youngsters. When he came up he happened to get on a ball club that had a manager who had to use him, so he made good and he had no chance to develop a bench grouch by sitting around the dugout. There are a lot of youngsters that advance who are sent back feeling that they have not had a chance. If they sit on the bench and do nothing they are liable to feel that they are being discriminated against, and thus qualify for entrance to the society known as the Club House Lawyers, Unincorporated.

The suggestion of the player, made to the Sporting News, is that if the clubs do consider a young player good enough to sign, they should try him out. If he Is not good enough, send him down, and replace him with either another youngster or with one of the veterans who can go well for only a certain length of time. This idea is a good one, but never will be adopted unless some gentleman like Mr. Davis, who financed the play, "The Ladder," get hold of 40 or 50 minor league franchises. The team might lose a few ball games and make r.
