Loses Bug Tomorrow DELAWARE PARK, Stanton, Del., June 9. — Benny Civitello, leading apprentice rider in Maryland this spring who hails from Newark, Del., will end his one-year term as an apprentice tomorrow and on Saturday will ride as a full fledged jockey without the "bug" allowance. The local reinsman, who rode his first winner at Delaware Park on June 11, 1948, became the leading rider of the current meeting yesterday when he scored a double to increase his score to seven winners. Bobbie Strange is second with six.
