Colt Brings $86,000
For Record at Auction
LEXINGTON, JCy. ( - A chest
nut I' colt by Nasrullab-Lurline B.
sold here Tuesday night for $86V
000: the highest price ever paid
for a thoroughbred yearling at an
American auction. ; '
The colt was purchased by F. J,
Adams of Fort Worth, who. repre
sents the , Adams syndicate. He
bought the colt after a bidding
duel with A. E. Reuben of Toledo,
Ohio, who owns Hasty House
Farm. ,- ..-r..
The previous record price was
$75,000 paid for ' New ' Broom' at
Saratoga i 1928.
Terrible,' Is what
calls his year, so far. "I'm not
hitting.' He said he has no answer
for it
"I've done everything but stand
ozf the plate. 1 got, a bad start
I ' hurt my finger, bunting. I
couldn't hit then and I couldn't
hit after it got well either." -
Williams was asked' if he was
doing anything differently or tak
ing extra practice to shake the
slump. He said he wasn't, adding.
"Heck, it's been so long I don't
know whether you call it a slump
anymore. -,
- Last year he hit .297. In seven
years of organized ball he hit bet-
Williams ter than .300 only once; with Pea-
tacoia in 1948 be was a .308 hitter.
He has been below .266 only once
ia seven years.
I caa't fault him on his hitting,"
said Durocher. "He isn't the only
one who isn't hitting real well just
now. He's been playing good ball.
. Lack of hitting has brought the
Giants five straight defeats.
