Scoreboard

P: Round Table, the Kerr Stables' bay colt, had to run all the way to make off with the fifth annual $100,000 United Nations Handicap at Atlantic City. After stumbling at the starting gate, Round Table responded to a hard drive, held off Tudor Era by a whisker and scored his eighth straight victory.

P: For the first time in five years, the U.S. Army turned out a rifle team that could shoot straighter than a squad of Marines. Scoring 1,440 points out of a possible 1,500, six Army sharpshooters took top team honors at Camp Perry, Ohio. In second, third and fourth places: the U.S. Marines.

P: Without casual spectators around, but with 20 stop-watch-clicking officials timing his every stroke, Buffalo's George Breen boiled through the water of Yale's 50-meter practice pool and broke his own world record for the mile (19:40.4) with a fast 19:22.
