Mundys homebred Mani-pur gelding, Friendly Man, ridden by Bill Carstens, made every pole a winning one in the featured Eagles Purse here this afternoon.

It was another hot day here in Northern Ohio and a crowd of 5,648 turned out to view the proceedings, which saw one favorite tally through the seventh race.

Friendly Mans advantage grew to- a length and one half midway around the final bend and in the remaining quarter of a mile held to that identical margin. Teenabee moved along into second position on the stretch turn, but could not menace the winner in any way. Rubio and Gleaming Doll both closed willingly for the minor awards. Friendly Man was winning his second straight race having had improved steadily with each start. S. S.
