Yes You Gains Surprise Garden State Park Tally Charges Up Resolutely in Stretch To Lead Carolina Miss Past Wire By WILLIAM PHILLIPS Staff Correspondent GARDEN STATE PARK, Camden, N. J., May 17. — Palatine Stables Yes You overcame early " interference in the Famous Fashions Purse here today and came charging resolutely through the stretch run "to be up at the end of the six furlongs for a surprise triumph over Cary C. Boshamers Carolina Miss. Jimmy Stout turned the trick with the winner for his second success on the program. Yes You, a five-year-old gelded son of Eight Thirty and Who Me, paid 1.20. Carolina Miss repulsed several early challengers while setting the pace and held on well to be only three-quarters of a length behind the winner. Jay Cee Farms Bold Jo, an extreme outsider in the betting, held his speed well for the first start of his campaign this year and he was third, two and one-half lengths farther back. Sam A. Mason TXs Westhampton, a stakes winner as a two-year-old who equaled the fastest six furlongs of this meeting while romping to victory in his first start in two .years a week ago, was made an odds-on choice. The son of Me-now was fractious at "the gate, breaking through once. He made a brief run at the leaders rounding the turn, but then appeared a bit rank and graually dropped back to finish fourth, despite vigorous efforts from his rider, Chris Rogers. Frank Rosen, Philadelphia businessman and owner of the Palatine, Stable, witnessed the triumph of Yes You, who he claimed from Hal Price Headley for 0,000 at this meeting last fall. He participated in the ceremonies in the winners circle in company with several lovely fashion models, and was presented a trophy. A crowd of 13,879 sweltered under cloudless skies, with not a breath of breeze to bring comfort throughout the afternoon. They enjoyed a fashion show staged by a large Philadelphia daprtment store, and formful racing up until the feature. The race was a bit rough at the far turn, with the entry of John L. McKnights Mr. Buster and Play Toy both suffering when blocked and taken in hand. Neither one recovered to race to the expectations of those who installed them as second choice. Yes You was behind the speed jam, but also was taken under a stout hold to restrain him from running up into the melee. Jimmy Stout brought him to the middle of the track entering the stretch, and he then came shooting forward from fifth position to catch the leaders in the last stages to be timad for the sprint over a fast track in 1:11.
