Kentucky Derby Strategy Plans Remain Secrets Bv RAY avnrct Lousiville, Ky. - tUPll - The Closest guarded Churchill Downs today were me cattle plans mapped out by trainers tor Saturday's running of the $125,000 added Kentucky Derby. The trainers will talk ol their hoDen and (earn, the cnn dition of their horses, how the animals can handle muddy or fast tracks and the trials and tribulations encountered in getting the horses to the post tor Americas greatest norse race. But you couldn't torture out of them the instructions they intend to give the jockeys in the paddock prior to the 89th running of the Kentucky Derby. "Are you going to let him Portland Chosen as WIBC Site Memphis, Tenn. -UPN- Port land. Ore., was selected Wednesday night as the site oi the 1963 Woman s Internation al Bowling congress tourna ment and convention. ' Portland was chosen over Los Angeles and San Diego on the first ballot at the WIBC convention here. An 82-wom-an delegation led by Mabel Marrs, Vancouver, Wash., flew here in a chartered plane to press the Portland bid. The tournament will bring between 25,000 and 30.000 womta bowlers to Portland during six weeks in April and Ma; of 1965. It carries $150, 000 in prise money. ' A selection committee will visit Portland later to choose lanes where the tournament will be held. Seattle Has 3-1 Margin ' San Francisco -fllPD- Coach Keith Allen of the Seattle To tems took nothing for granted today though his team needed only one more victory over the San Francisco Seals to clinch the Western ' Hockey league's Lester Patrick Tro phy. . . ' ' "We haven't won the fourth game yet and I have seen some .play-offs where a team took the first three and still got beaten," Allen said last night after the Totems defeat ed the Seals 3-1 and took a similar margin in the best-of-seven series. The sextets faceoff again at the Cow Palace tonight and Allen warned that the Seals remained "a good club with the advantage of playing on Its home ice." The entire final playotfs are being held at the Cow Palace as the Totems first were evict ed from their home arena by the Ice Follies and then a revival. FISHERMEN! BOATERS! CRAFTSMEN!

Innocently asked one reporter of Woody Stephens, who trains Cain Hoy Stable s Never Bend. Stephens just grinned. Then he said, "I wouldn't even tell that to my wife." Past Races Set Pattern The pattern of racing to be expected of starters in the probable field of nine, with the possibility that a tenth will join them when the en tries close today, is indicated by past races. Thus Greentree Stable's No Robbery, which never has been worse than second at any stage of its races and usually goes to the front at the start, is most likely to set the pace in the Kentucky Derby. That was the way Green- tree Stable's son of Swaps won the Wood Memorial two weeks ago for his fifth victory with out defeat. Trainer John Gaver, how ever, insists that No Robbery does not have to go to the front at tne start. "This horse can be rated," he said. "But of course I wouldn't want the jockey to fight him if he insists on hav ing his own way," li' added. No Robbery, wearing blink ers to keep him from running wide on the turns, also will be equipped with a special bit de signed to hold down his tongue. 1 Hate: Tongue Straps "I hate tongue straps," said the man who saddled Shut Out for his Kentucky Derby victory In 1942. "If a horse will stand for this equipment I refer to use it." Other starters with a high turn of speed include favored Candy Spots, Never Bend, Bonjour, Chateaugay and Gray Pet. They can be expect ed to be, close to the pace maker. On the other hand, On My Honor and Royal Tower strict ly are stretch-runners. Thus far this year Investor has not run very much at any stage of his races, while Book Full, the possible runner, went to the front early in the only race he won in four starts. - The best laid riding plans. however, often go astray and the jockeys are on their own once a race is under way. Willie Shoemaker, who won the Kentucky Derby in 1955 with Swaps and in 1959 with Tomy Lee, rides Candy Spots, unbeaten in six races. Ycasa on Never Bend ' Manny Ycaza, one of the most talented of current jock eys, rides Never Bend, while Johnny Rotz, who has won just about all the stakes in New York this mason, rides No Robbery. Neither ever has won the Kentucky Derby. Other riding assignments put Ismael Valenzuela on Bon jour, Braulio Baeza on Cha teaugay, Paul Frey on On My Honor, Avelino Gomez on Gray Pet, Gil Hernandez on Royal Tower, Frang Callico on Investor and Larney Hans- man on Book Full if he does start in the Kentucky Derby.

Three games were post poned because of rain or wet grounds. In the only two games played, home runs helped Denver overwhelm the Seattle Rainiers 11-3 and San Diego beat Salt Lake City 5-3. Seattle, with an 11-5 record, is leading the PCL's northern division while the Salt Lake Bees hold a slim edge over Oklahoma City for the lead in the southern division. Salt Lake and San Diego were tied 2-2 when Mel Queen of the Padres socked an in-side-the-park home run to spark a four-run uprising in the seventh Inning. He drove in three runs with the four bagger. Shares Spotlight Sharing the hitting spotlight with Queen was Chico Ruiz who drove in the tying run with a single.

The win broke San Diego's losing streak at seven and halted a five-game winning streak for Salt Lake. Greg Jancich got the win, his first of the season. Bee starter Al Lary 2-2 was the loser.
