$240,000 Ski Lift Being
Constructed at Reno Bowl
" Bene. Net. Definitely as
nrlng start of construction on
what , will become America's
- most spectacular winter sports
area, contracts have been sign
ed (April 15) for two deluxe
chair lifts to be installed this
summer in Reno Bowl, high
en the slopes of Slide Moun
tain near Reno.
- Announcement of the $240,
000 chair lift contract was
made by B. M. Zimmerman,
president of Washoe Develop
ment com., ana can r,
' Fuetsch, general manager of
the corporation which will
build and operate America's
newest ski resort.
The contracts call for com
pletion and testing of the lifts
by October 18.
Designed by Karl Ringer,
noted European skier and
engineer, the two lifts will
each have capacities of 600
skiers per hour. Ringer,
whose lift designs Incorpor
ate a number of novel fea
tures designed for maximum
safety of operation, built the
first post-war ski lifts In Eu
rope, and has Installed sev
eral In this country since
coming to America. Latest
Installation was on Mt.
Baldy In southern Califor
nia. Reno Bowl, ' high on the
eastern slope of Slide Moun
tain, one of the major Slera
peaks and only IS miles from
Reno, provides an assured ear
ly snow pack which lasts well
Into late spring. Precipita
tion and snow pack figures
upon which lift surveys were
engineered were taken frfm
surveys taken over the past IS
years.
Top terminal of the upper lift
Is at an elevation of 9700 feet
above sea level, and conforma
tion of the huge snow bowl will
permit downhill runs of up to
seven mues. even unnur av
rate snow conditions, accord
Ing to scores of expert skiers
who have surveyed the new
area.
Bottom terminal of the lift
Is at an elevation of 7500
feet, giving a difference in
elevation of 2200 feet be
tween bottom and top of the
lifts. Lower terminal of the
upper lift, within the bowl
proper, Is actually located at
a higher altitude than the
top of any ether lift In the
Sierra. .
Backers of the Reno Bowl
project, who have formed the
Washoe Development Corp, to
carry forward, believe the
combination of early snow,
variety and beauty of terrain,
high capacity lifts, long down
bill runs and challenging op
portunities for national and in
ternational competition will as
the oatronage of akiers
throughout the na'lon.
An additional asset, they
stelnt out, Is Reno Bowl's
close proximity to Reno. No
ether major whiter sports
area Is as conveniently lo
cated to a world famous re-

tion of an internationally
known ski Instructor to run
the Reno Bowl ski school.
Operation of the lifts is plan
ned during summer as well as
winter. The lifts are close to a
major state highway from Reno
to Lake Tahoe, and the view
from their top at 9700 feet is a
magnificent panorama of Lake
Tahoe to the west, Reno and
Pyramid Lake to the norm,
and the valleys, mountains and
desert to the south and east.

Native Dancer Great As
Ever, Says Fearless Fraley
By OSCAR FEALEY
New York (U.R) - There was
a flickering hope along Oatbln
Alley today that the big horse
named Native Dancer could be
beaten In the Kentucky Derby.
A surprising number of
horsemen thought the great
gray ghost was "unimpressive"
as he returned to the races Sat
urday and won his 10th race
in as many starts. It is a theory
made spurious by wistful hopes
for their own longihot hay
burners. It also is a premise which
should evaporate when the
Vanderbilt comet walks off
with the $100,000 Wood Mem
orial this Saturday.
For there is no greater tri
bute to Native Dancer than
the attempts being made to
tarnish the glitter of his per
formances. A parallel can be
drawn to the days when Joe
Louis at his peak was enlist
ing members of his "Bum of
the Month" club and the re
action waa "who did he
beatT" The obvious answer
was "everybody available."
The Dancer's critics have
pointed out that he has a ten
dency to "loaf when he gets
on top and that he was out-
clocked by two rivals Satur
day. The reason for that is that
the Gotham was run in two
divisions. Native Dancer was
in the "soft" half, for the race
track promoters weren't going
to ruin the good draw In the up
coming Wood. Thus his two
principal Eastern rivals, Laf-
fango and Invlgorator, were in

the other division.
They banged home head
and head, with Laffango
winning by a head in 1:44. In
his private section against a
group of what are laughing
ly called horses, the Dancer
waltzed in by two lengths In
1:44 1-5. Some of the knock-down-the-favorlte
, dockers
Insisted privately his time
was two-fifths slower than
that, which would left him
three lengths back of Laf
fango. Hut, and in this case it is a
tremendous word, they over
look many factors.
First, it was the Dancer's
first time out this year. Second,
ne won it as ocxey Eric uuer-
in pleased. Third, he won it
according to a distance pattern.
That last is highly impor
tant. In his initial distance
venture, closing out his two-year-old
campaign In the
mile and one-sixteenth East
View Stakes last fall, Native
Dancer ran exactly the same
type of race as he did Satur
day. They kept him on the out
side, clear of any possible
trouble, and then asked him to
come on and run over them
from the top of the stretch. Ob
servers estimate he could have
saved from eight to 10 lengths
and that amounts to many,
many yards.
Maybe he doesn't run them
into the ground from the start
the way the great Count Fleet
did, nor shrivel them into the
distance like Citation. But he
wins, and handily.

Yakima Bears Under New
Regime for 1953 Season
By GEORGE P. REDMOND
. . Teliae Benette Sport Siller
Yakima, (fl) The Yakima
Bears, playing in this flowering
garden of kid baseball, are go
ing it alone in the Western In
ternational League this season
nerhans even farther alone
toward pennatvllle than when
accompanied on the journey by
the San Francisco Seals.
Backed by the riches of
Frederick Mercy, Jr., theater,
hotel and business building
magnate, the Bears are starting
out new new faces, new uni
forms and new business office
management. Only Manager
Dario Lodlgianl, the old major
and Coast league inflelder, re
mains of the old regime with
the exception of two players,
Pitcher Jack Thompson and
First Baseman Len Noren,
Mercy wants a winner built
by his own hand and the hands
of his local associates and espe
cially does he want it built
from the talent to be found in
an area he believes possesses
more promising youngsters
than any other in the world.
To accompliih the purpose,
which is spurred by home town
It's only fair to warn you.
When you try a new Buick with the sensa
tional TwinTurbine Dynaflow Drive,
. you'll tingle all. over with thrill.
You'll sweep your speedometer needle from
xero to 30 mph so quickly, you won't have
time to breathe but twice. You'll move from
a standing start to legal speed so quietly,
you'll practically hear your heart beat. You'll
experience such complete and utter smooth
ness every step of the way, you'll be wholly
relaxed, refreshed, and ready for more.
This is not dream stuff. This is real.
This is what actually happens when you're
at the wheel of a new 1953 Buick with
TT Dynaflow.
Twin Turbines in the Dynaflow unit, instead
of just a single one-in addition to other engi
neering advances make the tremendous
difference.
I So you feel a firmer and more immediate
"take hold" get far faster getaway, new
pride, he has unwrapped the
strings from his pocketbook
given General Manager Bob
Osland and Lodlgianl a "go-
ahead" sign conditioned only
that youngsters be given the
preference on the roster.
Acting on that advice, Lodlg
ianl arrived on the local scene
March 17 with a whole flock of
yougsters In tow. He had pick
ed them from the California
sand lots during an off-season
of scouting the California win
ter league.
And from preient training
camp appearances Lodiglani's
efforts have not been In vain.
Among these promising play
ers are Milt Mountaines, a big
catcher; John Matzek, a, six-foot-two-inch
shortstop, and
Chuck Cannady, a fire-balling
right-hander.

Marathon Mark
Boston 0J.R-.A high wind and
the ambition of a Swedish fire
man forced a Japanese clerk to
smash the world's marathon
record In winning the annual
BAA 2fl-mile 885-yard grind.
Kelzo Yamada flew down
the course like a leaf in a gale,
his 98 pounds boosted along by
chilly west winds clocked as
high as 45 miles per hour. His
time was two hours, 18 min
utes and 61 seconds.
Yamada was nearly seven
minutes faster than the old
BAA record of 2:25.39 set by
Korea's Yunbok Sub.
4 Behind Yamada were Velk-
ko Karvonen, the Finnish mall
clerk and ods-on favorite, and
Karl Gosta Leandersson, the
fireman. Before the race. Lean
dersson had made up his mind
how it was going to be.
"I will break the record, and
If anybody beats me he will
also have to break the record,"
the lanky Swede told newsmen.
All three men were faster
than the unofficial world's rec
ord set by British Olympic star
Jim Peters at London June 14,
1952. His time was 2:2;:42.2, or
1:51.2 slower than the Jap.
Karvonen was only 28 sec
onds behind Yamada and Lean
derson trailed the winner by a
modest 45 seconds.
