GALLANT FOX TO SET RECORD New York, June 30. —(U.R) —Gallant Fox, unbeaten 3-year-old champion of 1930, appeared more certain than ever today of eclipsing the record earnings of Zev on the American turf before the end of the year. By winning the Dwyer etakes Saturday at Aqueduct, Gallant Fox added $11,500 to his earnings and now stands seventh among the leading money winners of the American turf with a total of $210,230 in his less than two years of racing. Gallant Fox is still $103,409 shy of Zev’s record of $313,639, hut William Woodward’s racer will make his next start in the Amerlean classic at Arlington, 111., Saturday, July 12 and if victorious "ill move into second place among the money winners in this country. The American classic carries a purse of. $70,000 added, and an additional SIO,OOO for any horse that has won any one of the important 3-year-old events—Belmont Kentucky Derby, Preakness and American Derby. Gallant Fox, with Earl Sande up, has won every start he has made this season, capturing the Wood Memorial. Preakness, Kentucky Do’by, Belmont stakes and Dwyer stakes in that order Some of Gallant Fox's admirers were slightly disappointed by his showing in the Dwyer which he won by a length and a half from Xenofol in a mile and a half race. Sande had to apply the whip to Gallant Fox in the stretch in order to stave off the closing rush of Xenofol. In justice to Gallant Fox it must be said that he packed 126 pounds, sixteen more than Xenofol, and had no trouble answering one of the few challenges he has received this year. Gallant Fox’s most serious rivals for the American Classic appear to be Gallant Knight, second to “The Fox" in the Kentucky derby, and William Ziegler’s Spinach. The latter has been training nicely and is almost certain to be shipped westward for the Classic. o SPORT SHOTS ♦ • Chicago, June 30. —Johnny Risko, Cleveland h-avyweight, and Taffy Griffith, the mid-west's leading championship contender, tapered oft hard training today for their 10•ound bout at Chicago stadium Wednesday night.

After winning eight games in a ow, Washington was baffled by the -outhpaw slants of Walter Stewirt and failed to score after the fit st inning. Near riots were averted in two games at Detroit and Washington. Police reserves had to escort Umpire Guthrie from the park at Detroit when he caller! a runner out at the plate with what would have been the tying run in the Athletics, .Tigers game. At Washington fans stormed on the field and threatened Umpire Campbell who ruled O’ Rourke had caught Cronin’s foul fly for the last out of the game. Catching the ball O'Rourke, was knocked down by Kress, also attempting to make the catch, and dropped the ball.
