But Candy Spots failed Churchill Downs, suffering the only defeat of his career when he finished third behind Darby Dan Farm's Chateaugay and Cain Hoy Stable's Never Bend. lie looks a little harder than he did for tlic Derby." said Mesh Tenncy, who trains Candy Spolsi for Itex C. Ellsworth, indicating he believed the son of Nigromantc was sharper now than he wus at Louisville. Satisfied With Chalruugay Jim Conway, who trains Derby winner Chatcaugay, was undaunt ed. Earlier in the week he was worried after Chatcaugay turned in a faster mile workout than the trainer desired. But the colt has shown no ill effects and apiears to be in high fettle and Conway promises Chatcaugay "will run as good or better than he did in Lou isville.

He suid, "1 thought it was as smooth and easy a workuut as I've ever seen Never Hcnd put In."

But they could sneak in with some unexpected points should Medford's fine Tornado team and the Cavemen of Grants Pass get wrapped up in too much of a duel between themselves. Medford will be a slight favorite to capture the meet honors with the Cavemen a close second. KU is ranked a strong third with no contention, virtually, Irom Cra ter and Ashland. Walt Smith, the state's best javelin thrower, heads the list of Pelicans into the meet. The husky junior spear specialists has the best mark in the state with a heave of 214-4'j. The second best toss is bv Ashland's Tom Huff at 203. Huff, a former Pelican, will be expected to give Smith another great duel. Smith will be the only first place favorite for the Pelicans. A possibility for a first is big Bill Mills, another junior weight- man. Mills has the best discus toss in the league and the fourth best in the state at 156 feet. He will be a favorite here. However, he will have to pour it on in the shot put. His best effort is 50- Arie DeGroot will be matched against some of the best sprint ers in the state. He will run both I he loo and 220 and a leg on the relay. He will be going against Mike Deibele and Jim Hall of Medford and Rich Ireland of Grants Pass.
