Eight Candidates
Slated for Derby
Trial Saturday
Louisville. Ky.. May 4 11
This Kentucky derby business
really begins to warm up today
with eight candidates for Sat
urday's $ 1 0 0,000 jamboree
squaring off in a race worth
$90,000 less the derby trial.
Several of the "leading men
in the world famous classic are
slated for action in the one mile
trial. It is the final test before
Saturday's colorful show. Then
some 100,000 tun customers
will Jam Churchill Downs to
the limit and make Col. Matt J
Winn exceedingly happy that
the thing got started 75 years
ago.
C
The three big horses in this
afternoon's race appear to be
Fred W. Hooper's powerful com
bination of Olympia and Ocean
Drive, and Greentree stable's
ever-dangerous Capot. Each will
carry 118 pounds.
Then there is the Calumet
farm pair of DeLuxe and Pon
der. If they belonged to other
than Calumet and Canny Ben
Jones, they probably wouldn't
rate much consideration. But
when Trainer Ben gets a horse
ready for the derby, you just
have to look twice, because of
Calumet's great record in the
last eight years.
The rest of them in the trial,
Mrs. H. J. Damm's Roundeleer,
Arthur P. Cotter's Petey Cotter,
and Afton Villa farm's Jacks
Town, could be in there just for
the ride. Ponder, Roundeleer
and Jacks Town are in with 110,
and Petey Cotter and DeLuxe
have 112 each.

shocked the White Sox at Chi
cago, 14 to 12, In 10 innings to
amaze everybody who ever look
ed at a box score.
The Senators supposedly are
the powder-puff batsmen of
baseball. Traditionally, they hit
fewer homers than any team in
the majors. Last year they did
not get their seventh homer for
the season until June 8. And
today they lead the American
league with 15. A year ago they
didn't get their 15th homer un
til July 30 when the season was
more than half over.
With the score tied at 12 all,
Washington clinched things in
the 10th with the homers by
Gil Coan and Al Evans. Chica
go also got two homers, by Joe
Tipton and Gus Zernial.
The Yankees, winning their
11th game in 14 starts, topped
the Browns, 5 to 3, at St. Louis
with an eight inning rally in
which a double by Tommy Hen
rich and a single by Bobby
Brown provided the winning
edge.
The Red Sox and Tigers bat
tled to a 13-inning, 14 to 14 tie
in a slugging bee at Detroit
called because of darkness.
In the National, Riflin' Ralph
Branca of Brooklyn became the
first big league pitcher to win
four games when he shut out
the Reds, 3 to 0 on eight hits.
Walt (Monk) Dubiel of the
Cubs pitched a five-hitter under
the lights at Boston to beat the
Braves, 4 to 0, and cut their
league lead to a half-game.
Home runs by Willard Mar
shall, Sid Gordon, and Mickey
Livingston, all of them off Mur
ry Dickson, led the Giants to a
7 to 3 night win over the Pi
rates at New York.
The Phils got only five hits,
but used three of them along
with three walks and a hit bats
man in the seventh Inning to
score six runs and beat the
