Neumanns fleet Beanir, a homebred daughter of Nir-gal and Bea Right, sped to a popular victory here today in the second running of the Tomboy 3takes, decisively trimming half dozen other two-year-old fillies. Smartly ridden by jockey Darrell Madden, Beanir streaked to the finish of the five and one-half furlongs feature with three lengths to spare over tars. V. E. Smiths Lori-Jane, who was making her racing debut. Pour lengths off the latter, R. E. Nims and Douglas M. Davis Natchez Girl, an invader from Chicago, ran third while Duntreath Farms Militant Miss was along for fourth in the dash. Earns ,695 Purse Beanir, one of the high weights at 115 pounds in the allowance stake, skipped the Tomboy distance over the firm footing in 1:05%. The Neumann 4niss. registered her third triumph in seven engagements and she was the choice at 6 to 5. Beanirs victory was worth ,695 of the ,430 Tomboy gross purse. Immediately after the Tomboy finish, the Honorable Jess Ziegler, Mayor of Livonia, presented a handsome silver trophy to trainer H. H. "Pete" Battle, who repre- sented Mrs. Neumann in a brief winners ring ceremony. * Starter John Morrissey sent the Tomboy field away from the stalls in a "line break" Continued on Page Forty-Six Beanir Proves Popular Tomboy Stakes Victress Neumann Filly Leads Throughout With Lori-Jane Second to Finish Continued from Page One and Beanir was first to show in front. Lori-Jane, however, took a brief lead between calls after the start but the Neumann miss put her away before entering the stretch with what appeared a safe margin. Jockey Madden then mildly urged Beanir, who responded readily and drew clear while Lori-Jane held on determinedly to take the place from Natchez Girl, who gave a game effort to get the show. Militant Miss, who lacked early foot, closed well enough to save fourth while Cols Daughter, Lysbeth and St. Jude, an early speedster, passed the final marker in that order. The Michigan Racing Association was host to another large half-holiday crowd, some 19,000 spectators witnessing the sport. Although no rain fell, heavy cloud banks drifted over the course and weather conditions , undoubtedly cut attendance. The track was fast. Marion H. VanBerg, Columbus, Nebr., turfman, and jockey Lois Cook, one of the most successful combinations to campaign at Motor City track, combined for a triple when McGrathiana sped to a surprising decision in the six furlongs sixth race, which matched eight high class platers. McGrathiana defeated Henry Forrests Lonoke Flash by two and one-half lengths while Mrs. Helen M. Chris Bolaris, early pacemaker, lasted for third. Earlier in the day, VanBerg saddled Sister Cora, victress in the first, and followed that conquest with another winner in the third, the Cornhusker State-owned Kellys Mistake defeating a half dozen useful three-year-olds at one mile and 70 yards. Sister Cora was good for a 2.80 straight pay-off and Kellys Mistake, coupled with Sunnybrook Sue in the betting, returned 2 to 1 as the choice. Thomas F. Devereux Piparoo, a homebred gelded son of Equifox and Gayer, sped to a popular verdict in the six-furlong Cherrylawn Purse, trimming seven other three-year-olds.
