Trainer Confident Needles
Will Win Kentucky Derby
By RAY AYRES
Louisville, Ky. (U.R No Ken
tucky Derby favorite has won
In the last three year, but
Trainer Hugh Fontaine was con
fident today that his Needles
will come through on schedule
for the Derby day crowd at
Churchill Downs Saturday.
Every other trainer of the 18
three-year-olds entered in the
82nd and richest running of the
first of the Triple Crown clas
sics agreed that the breaks seem
to ride wih Fontaine and his
colt, which has won 5208,800 this
year. But they weren't afraid of
Needles.
The only trainer vho wasn't
particularly interested in getting
the No. 1 post position was Fon
taine. But he drew it for

Modesto (U.R) Top milers
Bill Dellinger and Australia's
Jack Bailey will lead a Univer
sity of Oregon team to the 15th
annual California Relays, which
will be held here May 26.
Both men have held the
NCAA mile title. Dellinger, who
won the event in 1954, has run
the mile in 4:04.6, while defend
ing titlist Bailey has been clock
ed at 4:05.6.
Heavyweight Ring Toga
Bout Set Tentatively
. New York ftJ.R) Internation
al Boxing Club promoter James
D. Norris tentatively has sched
uled a heavyweight elimination
bout between second - ranked
. Tommy (Hurricane) Jackson and
fifth-ranked Floyd Patterson for
Madison Square garden in June
or July. Patterson's manager is
agreeable to such a bout and
Norris needs only to get Jack
ion's managers approval.
Needles, the stretch-running son
of Ponder who has won two
$100,000 added races this year,
the Flamingo Stakes and the
Florida Derby.
Post May Hurt
Actually his slow-starting colt
might have been better off far
ther out from the rail when the
bulky field is sent after a win
ner's purse worth $123,400.
Needles then could not get
caught in a jam.
Also trying to stay out of a
jam when the starting gates are
sprung at 3:30 p.m. EDT on Sat
urday ill be the Calumet Farm's
entry of Fabius and Wintor Lea,
C. V. Whitney's entry of Career

High King, No Regrets, Ben A.
Jones, Besomer, Come On Red,
Terrang, Jean Baptiste, Invali

peror, and Countermand.
One of the entries, Reaping
Right, already is an unlikely
starter because he was injured
in a training accident Thursday
morning.

Portland u.R) Amos Lin

unanimous decision over How

their 10-round main event on
last night's fight card in the
Portland Civic auditorium
In another bout Tommy Tho

Gein La Forte, 148, Reno, in the

Youth was in the driver's seat
with three 26-year-old "young
sters' out in front of the pack
as the $25,000 Colonial National
Invitation Golf Tournament
turned into the second round to
day with one-under-par 69s.
Colonial Country Club's tough-ened-up,
7,100-yard par 35-35-70
layout usually yields only to
the battle tested masters among
the pro ranks, but the veterans
were playing second fiddle today
to Peter Thomson of Australia,
Dow Finsterwald of Athens,
Ohio, and Paul Harney of Bol
ton, Mass.
The pressure was on the lead
ers, hovever, for only one stroke
back at par were three veterans
to whom top prize money is
old stuff Ben Hogan, a Byron

Anti-Trust Suit
Decision Delayed
New York (U.R) No decision
is expected until September in
the government's anti-trust suit
against the International Boxing
Club, but, as in many boxing
bouts, both, sides were claiming
victory today.
William Elkins, assistant U.S.
district attorney, said he believ
ed the government had proved a
monopoly in which the IBC's
joint Chicago-New York opera
tion, with its cross-directorships,
permitted "the allocation be
tween them of the market of
championship boxing."
But Whitney North Seymour
Sr., counsel for the IBC, de
clared the government had fail
ed to prove conspiracy or mono
poly, and had failed to show a
market for title fights exists sep
arate from the market for non
title fights.
The court trial in the case
ended Thursday.

Sourdoughs Reunion
Slated in Portland
Portland-4U.R) The 1956 In
ternational Sourdoughs reunion
will be held in Portland Aug.
16-19.
Mrs. Sarah Berthelsen of Port
land made the announcement
today and said Portland was the
point of origin of most of the
Gold Rush brigade of 1898.
Mrs. Berthelsen, vice - presi
dent of the sourdoughs and a
past president of the Alaska
Yukon Pioneers association,
said:
"We always have a time ex
plaining to Seattle people that
the Gold Rush was very much a
Portland affair.''
She said Capt. J. J. McNeil,
president of the sourdoughs who
is still an active deep sea mas
ter, plans to come here from
Hamburg, Germany, for the
Sacs Not Sad; Take PCL
Lead Away From Seattle
By DON THACKREY
United Press Sports Writer
The Sacramento Solons, rated
as pigeons in the pre-season esti
mates, were in the catbird seat
in the Pacific Coast League to
day. The supposedly sad Sacs ac
complished their minor league
miracle by pinning back the
wings of the high-flying Seattle
Rainiers for the second straight
time last night and taking over
their perch with a 5-2 victory.
The rest of the first division
marked time as San Francisco
split with Hollywood, losing 0-1
and then winning 7-6 in a couple
of close ones and Los Angeles
and Portland were rained out.
San Diego scored 7-6 over
Vancouver.
Jackie Tobin, a former Rain
ier, led the Sacramento attack
with three of his team's 12 hits.
The Solons got the first two runs
of the game in the sixth and
were ahead all the rest of the
way although the Rainiers twice
pulled to within a run.
Earl Harrist was the winner
and Elmer Singleton the loser
but both met their mates in the
shower room, being taken out
before completing the game.

Ron Delany Vows
Greatest Effort
Los Angeles (U.R) Ron De
lany, Villanova College sopho
more who has run the fastest
mile in the United States this
year, said today he would put
forth his greatest effort against
John Landy here Saturday.
The Irish runner who calls
Dublin his home said he was
flattered by the statement of the
Australian champion who felt
Delany should prove his greatest
competitor in Saturday's special
mile.
"I hope I live up to his kind
words," Delany said prior to
limbering up on the Coliseum
track where the race will be
staged. "I would like nothing
better than to run my best
against Mr. Landy.
"I have nothing to go by in
determining how well I can run
against him. After all, he has
run faster than four minutes on
four occasions and that's a feat
no one has matched."
