GORDON RICHARDS' GREAT RECORD
Strange that a Ally drafted out of the Beckhampton stable should have been the means of giving Richard his 200th winning ride of the season.
Mr. J. A. Dewar having made up his mind not to keep Portefeuille, she was sold to Mr. F. O. Berner
for 400ga. after her success-her second win up to that date-in a selling plate, at Windsor in the middle of September. The daugh- ter of Portlaw has already proved herself an acquisition to Walter Nightingall's stable.
This is the 11th time in 13 years that Richards has been champion Jockey. Each season since 1933. when he established his record of 295 wins, he has secured his second century of successes 'excepting

Da order that a house known as St. John-at-Hackney Institute, in High-street, Homerton, can be saved from destruction, the Parks Committee of the London County Council recommends that £200 should be contributed to the London Society to help it to acquire the property.
The house contains some original oak linen-fold panelling and stone replaces. It is an interesting example of a secular building of the 16th century...
Sir Thomas Sutton, founder of Charterhouse, is believed to have been one of the arst occupants. but this has not been verined,
The London Society has already obtained £2,300 towards the total cost of £2,500. The National Trust, to whom it is proposed to present the house, contributed £1,500.
