Huge Crowd Due
To See Kentuc
ky
Derby Saturday
By Leo H. Petersen
(United Prian Sporta Editor)
: Louisville, Ky., June 6 U1 A
wide open race' which may draw
. as many as 22 entries matching
,, the largest field ever to run for
the roses promised today to at
tract tne largest crowd in the his
tory ol American racing to tne
Kentucky derby Saturuay.
Col. Matt vvinn predicted that
the gate would exceed the estimat
ed ira.UUO who saw Whtrlaway win
tne 1U41 classic. All seats were
sold out yesterday, Winn said,
whereas on the record attendance
day reserved space still was avail
able a day belore the race.
Despite war-time travel condi
tions and restrictions which limit
ed the sale of tickets to those liv
ing in the Louisvile metropolitan
area, indications were that this
fourth wartime derby not only
would draw a record crowd but al
so one of the largest fields ever
to face a starting gun in the race
which has become, if not the rich
est, at least the most coveted in
the nation.
Time Trials Due
Time trials today and tomorrow
will determine the number of
three-year-olds which will go to
the barrier with col. c. v. wnu
ney's Jeep rated a three to one fa.
vorite. It appeared certain that for
the first tune since ia a liny win
. go to the post.
Arthur Rose announced that
Misweet definitely would start
barring training mishaps between
now and derby time. An outsider
in the betting, Misweet breezed
' a mile and an eighth in 1:54 45
yesterday and was scheduled for
another trial spin today.
Because of the wartime ban on
.racing which set the derby back
.three weeks from its usual run
ning time, the major prep races
on which owners usually base!
'their final Judgment as to wheth-
er to enter their thoroughreds in
the race were run on a different
time basis this season.
Jeep Is Favorite
, But going against the odds. Jeep
was installed tne iavorite despite
the fact that only four Wood
memorial winners have gone on
to take the derby In its 70 run
nings. They were GullHnt Fox in
1930, Twenty Grand in '31, Johns
town in 1937 and Count Fleet In
-1943.
' Jeep will be only one of the
Wood memorial winners in the
-race for another sure starter is
.Hoop Jr., which won the second
.section of the divided New York
classic last Vednesday. Hoop Jr.,
was quoted at 10 to one.
Pot O Luck, Calumet Farm's I
leading hopeful, was rated next'
to Jeep at odds of five to one.
.Rated third probably because of
sentiment was Burning Dream,
the horse with which Col. E. R.
Bradley hopes to win his fifth
Kentucky derby before he retires
from the sport he has served so
well.
Alexin Gains Support
Alexis, which ran second to
Iloop Jr., in tlie second section
of the Wood memorial, appeared
to be gaining support although he
was listed in the early odds at 15
to one. Darby Dieppe, winner of
the Blue Grass slakes last Satur
day and Fighting Slop were rated
nt 12 to one. The only other quota
tions were on Air Sailor, 20 to
one; Foreign Agent 50 to one and
Buymeabond, 100 to one.
' The entries will go into the box
starting at 3 a.m. PWT Friday,
with all horses over nine grouped
in the field.
Of the other horses listed in the
category of probable starters and
on which the odds-makers made
no quotations are Fair Jester,
Bert G, Sea Swallow, Tiger Rebel,
Joe's Choice, K Poo-Doe, Jambc,
Jlergulntor, Kcnntlworth Lad, Hob

Portland, Ore., June 6 ui It
looks like a baseball-playing cor
poral named Joe Gordon will
spend the duration of the war in
Honolulu.
The ex-Yankee second baseman
was transferred irom tne air
transport command to the regular
army, along with his promotion
to a double stripe on his khaki '
sleeve. Hamilton Field was angl-1
ing for him but California lost. ;
Mrs. Gordon and the kids area week ago and ended up only a
still in California, and probably j half-game ahead of those tough
will stay there. The family for- Seattle Rainlers. Yet Portland
merly wintered In Eugene, where ; went right up to Seattle and waj
Joe played for the University of loped their rivals, five games to
Oregon before graduating to the
big-time In Yankee stadium. But
it appears the Eugene city home
stead will be sold and Oregon
left behind until peace comes.
Whether the Gordons will re
turn to Eugene or resettle in Bend,
Ore., is a moot question, for Joe
always liked the eastern Oregon
area for hunting and has a broth
er, Jack, living there.

always be room for Joe with his
big bat and sparkling play afield.
Speaking about Gordon and
baseball, how do you account for
the uncanny winning ability of
the Portland Beavers on the road
and relative ineptness at home?
Usually it's the reverse.
After leadinc the Pacific coast
league much of the season so far.
the Beavers were carved down
to size at home by San Francisco
three, for a two-and-a-half game
margin by the end of the series.
Portland has now won six
straight road trip series. Since
the Beavers considered Los An-
fit-u-.-, me .leani m Deac ior inc
pennant instead of runner-im
jStSattle, the series starting tonight
in me Angei city should be a
humdinger.
Statistics show that the six road
trips give Portland 27 wins and
only 11 defeats, whereas at home
in four series, they have won only
12 against 13 defeats. Watson,
the sliderule: that's .711 away ami
.480 at home. 1

Cravath said.
The young man in question is

Tannehill is stocky, but fast
