IJVKKI'OOL. Emj., March 29.
A) Hope, spelled with capitals,
might be the middle name of sev
eral hundred Americana who
came 7000 miles to see the crack
Yankee steeplechaser, Billy Bur
ton, tomorrow in what is un
quejtionably the world's biggest
gamble in racing the Grand Na
tional steeplechase.
Billy Barton, owned by Howard
Bruce of Baltimore, and Burgo
right, owned by Benjamin L. Behr
of Chicago, are the American-bred
horses entered in tho most gruel
ing contest for horseflesh ever
conceived by num.
Moro than 300 reserved seats
have been adddo to tho Alntxeo
grandstand on account of the rush
trom the I'nited States sportsmen,
who began clamoring for aeata
weeks ugo.
Most of the reservations woro
made by cable. and soma by
trans-Atlantic telephone.
The ruce, which this year Is
attracting largo crowds, hod a
novel beginning. It was conceived
by a racing enthusiast and publi
can. Jack Lynn, 91 years afiw.
He hit upon the Idea of a long
distance struggle 'with the view of
attracting trade to his bar In the
Waterloo hotel at Aintree, which
had been in the doldrums for
years.
The scheme worked, the race
bringing a crowd. Lynn died a
very rich man because of thhf.
Twice In the last five years tho
Grand National has been Won by
an American-owned horse, but
never has it been won by a horse
bred and owned in America.
Kergeant M u r p h y. owned by
Stephen Sandford of Amsterdam,
X. Y., won in 1923, and Jack
Horner, owned by A. C HchwarU
of New York City, won In 1926.
These men, with another com
patriot, Harold Kowler, are com
peting this year with horses
bought abroad.
Both Billy Barton and Burgo
right are so well known in the
United States that their entry
attracted attention from the start.
Neither Billy Barton or Burgo
right is a favorite in tho betting,
and the trainer of the Baltimore
entry said rather pessimistically
that the horses weue not accli
mated. K very ho rse I n H ho r a c e ,
however, has a chance.
The best horse does not always
win. There are 3 0 obstacles in
tho four and one-half mile course,
and in tho first mile, along in
the scurry and scramble of get
ting a good start, each horse Is
in imminent danger of being
toppled over by the herd of in
different jumpers whose Jockeys
are riding with all their might
and main and with a single aim.
As the history of the race rec
ords show, time and again hot
favorites worth fortunes failed to
even complete the course, while
a mllk cart dobbin sped home
with the bacon at odds which
made the bookies weep.

North Sacramento was slowly
getting back to normal today as
many families returned to ;thelr
dwellings, moro than 1000 of
which were free of water. The
