Welker Cochran of San Fran cisco, the giant-killer of the 1941 world's three-cushion billiard tournament who gave Defending Champion Willie Hoppe his first defeat in 36 tournament starts yesterday, broke the meet high run record today. Cochran, three times three cushion champion, made a high run of 13 in defeating Art Rubin, New York, 50-28, in 30 innings. If the mark stands until Friday when the $20,000 competition ends, it will net Cochran the $100 high run prize. Cochran's victory, llth in 15 starts, broke his fourth place tie with Rubin but still left him only a mathematical chance for a tie for first money. Ahead of him are Hoppe, the leader, with 13 victories and one defeat, and Jay Bozeman, Vallejo, Calif., and Schaefer, who are tied with 12 victories against two defeats.

Luck Holds For Howard Winners Cheers of 32,000 Fans Drive Chestnut Racer To Grab $50,000 Stake Br JACK GUENTHCR United Press Correspondent ARCADIA, Calif., Feb. 12 (UP) The fabulous racing luck of Charles S. Howard held good again today when Porter's Cap, picked up by the San Franciscan for a paltry $1300, ploughed over a holding track with the speed of a rabbit and the strength of a dray horse to a romping triumph in the $50,000 Santa Anita derby. Driven on by the cheers of 32,000 persons who established him a heavy favorite in the bulky field of 16 starters, the racy chestnut son of the Porter picked up his rivals at the last long turn, then cake-walked down the straightaway much as he pleased to stamp his name up with those of his stablematcs Seabiscuit, Mioland, Kayak II, and Sorteado. Cool Veteran Up It was even easier than it looked. With a cool and calcu lating veteran Leon (Buddy) Haas on his back. Porter's Cap simply held his speed until it was needed. He loped along, willing to be plastered with a lit tle mud in the early furlongs. Then he stepped out with a widened stride, flattended his ears and drove. He was all alone at the finish line four comfort able lengths In front of Mrs. Anthony Pelleteri's Bull Reigh while H. S. Nesbitt's Copperman shaded W. E. Boeing's Welcome Pass for show money in a film finish. This newest in a long line of Howard's bargain-counter buys he was picked out of the Sara toga auction ring by Trainer Tom Smith a year ago last August ran out the mile and a furlong route on heavy footing in 154 2-5 while shouldering scale weight of 120 pounds. He paid $5.20, $4.00 and $3.20 across the board as the rollicking crowd sent more than a million dollars churning through the mutuels, and he returned the fat sum of $43,500 net to his owner. Winnings Big The triumph boosted his win nings to $81,630 for two years. In all he has won only five races, but one of them was this $50,000 derby and another was the $40, 000 Washington futurity in Chi cago, Bull Reigh, who was bought at Saratoga for only $1100, paid $6.40 and $5.20 while earning $10,000, and Copperman, coup led as an entry with Staretor, paid $12.20 while picking up $5000. Fourth money was worth $2500 to Welcome Pass. The seventh running of the west's richest three-year-old fix ture turned out much as the ex p e r t s and bettors figured. Brandywine stable's Madigama broke on top in a good start from the electric gate and shot away to a three lengths' lead with Bull Reigh second, A. G. Vanderbilt's Good Turn third, and Trans figure fourth. Porter's Cap was fifth here and running easily in his red and white silks. Going by the half-mile post, Madigama still showed the way and Bull Reigh followed closely. Porter s Cap moved up to third and Transfigure faded. Welcome Pass was far behind and the field was strung out for more than 15 lengths with the filly, Nasca, a poor last. In the backstretch the Howard hurricane began closing ground and with him came Valdina Groom and Welcome Pass. There was a brief tussle on the turn, then Porter's Cap swung around in front and he merely kept on going while the rest of the field flattened out. The order behind the first four at the finish was Valdina Groom, Swain, Fairymant, Pirate, Stare tor, Transfigure, Armistice, Buckhorn Creek, Nasca, Good Turn, Madigama and Havana Lad.

Earl Wiard, most versatile player of the Indian .squad and defensive strong mon, was re ported ill with mumps. Roseburg has practically no reserve strength and the brunt of play in the entire season has been borne by the five players making up what Is believed to be the nation's tallest prep school team. Wiard, 6 feet three Inches in height, was a key man in the Indian defense system. Now leading the southern Ore gon district, the Roseburg In dians face a crucial Rome against Ashland here Saturday flight. ll 72&rr I rnfcc wrarAJ NJK THAT'S pi iff IA , HI6HBAH! ; f '103 I OLD W2oV ISUIIYBKOOKi KENTUCKY STRAIGHT BOURBON WHISKEY BRAND .fsP P'0rf ' National Distillers Products Corporation, Now York, N.
