Juke Box Gets Top Weight For Two Sportsmans Events SPORTSMANS PARK, Cicero, 111., May 8. — Release of the weights for the two handicaps that will headline the closing day program at Sportsmans Park on Saturday, reveals that Joenace Stables hardhitting Maedic gelding, Juke Box, drew top weight in both events. A smashing second to Bank Balance in the Inaugural and winner of the Hawthorne Handicap, Juke Box has been assigned 128 pounds for the ,000 Chicago Handicap, mile and a sixteenth feature. In the Winnetka Handicap, ,500 seven-furlong co-feature, handicapper Horace Wade allotted 130 pounds to the Joenace ace. Most of the better class contention quartered in this area have been named to oppose Juke Box, and under the weights both races shape up as fitting closing-day headliners.
