YORK, April 22.—Two weeks from today it will be much easier to discuss the Kentucky Derby authoritatively than it is now. For two weeks from today the Derby will have been decided. And I ihink it will be rather generally agreed that even an expert can tell you about such things after they are over. Certainly the week-end results did not throw much light on the subject. Not enough at any rale to establish any particular eligible as a rugged standout. The Greentree Stable’s Plat Eye added to his esteem by winning the Chesapeake and Roman Soldier improved his position by winning the Texas Derby. From now on, inevitably, you will hear more about these two colts in the pre-race dope. If the week-end activity in the East, South and Southwest did not catapult any particular eligible into blinding prominence, it did serve to more properly evaluate some of the other Derby hopes. The highly touted Commonwealth, for instance, could do no better than third in the Chesapeake, and the equally highly touted Psychic Bid was nowhere in the Paumonok. Os course one disappointing race docs not necessarily seal the doom of a Derby colt, as Zev showed when he ran a very bad trial race a week or so before the Kentucky classic and then turned around and won the event like breaking sticks. Still, a disappointing race is never calculated to raise anybody's optimism. a a an n TN any event it bcg;ns to look as if the Brookmeadc Stable will not dominate the 3-vear-old field this season as it did in 1934 when trainer Bob Smith went around the country holding aces back to back in Cavalcade and High Quest. To repeat, Psychic Bid was nowhere in the Paumonok. Young Native was way back in the Chesapeake and Special Agent, the third and remaining 3-ycar-old reliance, has yet to start. Wo will be able to get a better line on the strength of the East come this Saturday when the Wood Memorial is decided. This race at a mile and 70 yards promises to bring out a smashing field of 10 or more 3-year-olds, including Omaha, Today, Plat Eye and Psychic Bid. It, will be the most important race in America on that day and will closely rival the actual running of the Derby. a a a ana the point of view of the New York public I don't know whether * the unusual allure of the race should be accepted in high glee or deep anguish. Apparently the more the excellence of the racing cards improves here the worse general spectator conditions become. The opening of the metropolitan season on Saturday, with especial emphasis on the betting ring, would have been a disgrace to a half mile country fair plant. The Paumonok drew a record breaking crowd to Jamaica for the opening: with favorable weather the Wood Memorial with its superior field will entice an even greater throng, and I find myself wondering how the throng will be handled in the betting ring. Or perhaps I should say mishandled and manhandled. a a a a a a casual, week-end visitor to our tracks practically takes his life 1 in his hands when he invades the betting ring. Even if he wins he runs a heavy risk of literally losing his shirt Before and after each race the picture of confusion and chaps is suggestive of a Times Square subway rush. No devoted wife should permit her man to brave this ghastly ordeal without first making out his will and dictating directions for the last rites. To be outspoken, the present betting system is laboriously antiquated and a complete fiasco. This was evident a year ago when it was first installed, but there was reasonable hope for broad refinements with experience.’ Twelve months have passed and the system is just as bad as it was a year ago, at which time it couldn't possibly have been worse. 8 8 8 tS tt 8 THIS is another reason why the fight for pari-mutuel betting should be pressed with renewed vigor. There seems every likelihood that Gov. Lehman may call a special session of the Legislature in June. If the bill is not brought up again at this session and passed at a second reading, it will be at least three more years before the machines can be legalized. , , , , There is some doubt as to the legality ol the law under which the bookmakers now operate. This is given as an explanation why the betting structure is so haphazard and unsystematic. Apart from state levenuc, isn't this reason enough in itself for a determined fight for a new deal?

GALLOPING INDIANS RETURN FOR OPENER
Tribe Cops Easter Twin Bill and Keys to Face Champs in Home Lid-Lifter Tomorrow Phil Gallivan, Early-Season Iron Man, Will Oppose Birds on Mound; Redskins Win Four Out of Six Games; Heath Shines at Bat. BY EDDIE ASH Times Snorts Editor. Now for a rousing, substantial yell! And bring along some noisemakers. The hustling Indians are home and they have donned the war paint that won't wear off. The "big” game of the year for Perpy Stadium customers will be staged tomorrow when Red Killefer's Redskins lift the lid on the local season. It’s campaign No. 34 for Indianapolis in the American Association and the 1935 model of Tribe machine is entitled to a royal welcome. The
Hoosier pastimers came in off the road last night after scoring a grand slam in the Easter double-header at Toledo, 7 to 3 and 7 to 2. and the Indian tossers are in a triple tie with St. Paul and Minneapolis for second place. The road record was four victories and two defeats, an achievement worthy of sincere acclaim, and opposing the Tribesters here tomorrow will be the league-leading Columbus champions. Knock the Red Birds off the perch, is the Redskins’ war whoop. The contest tomorrow will begin at 3 p. m. and that elegant start made by the Killeferites in enemy territory is expected to excite the fans to midseason form. Brief ceremonies will be held before the Indians and the Red Birds swing into action. The rivals broke even in two
Gallivan
tilts at Columbus, but the Hoosiers are in better shape now and believe they have what it takes to trounce Ray Blades’ speed boys. Phil Gallivan, the early season iron man, will hurl for the Tribe in the home opener. He defeated the Birds in the Columbus inaugural last Wednesday, 9 to 7, went to the relief of Hal Chamberlain in Friday's
battle at Toledo and stinea a Mua Hen threat, and then in the first game of yesterday’s double-header the big fellow answered the distress call again and went to the rescue of Vance Page in the eighth. And on top of that he rushed out to the bull pen in the second tilt and prepared himself, just in case. Red Wright was first to warm up. however, and when Bob Walsh lost control the former Indiana University flinger strolled to the rubber in the seventh and finished out the fracas in dazzling fashion, allowing only one bingle in the last three stanzas. Recover Their Stride The Tribesmen captured three out of four at Toledo, the lone defeat coming on Saturday when the infield “blew up” behind Myles Thomas. The score was 7 to 4. The
Indians got together yesterday, however, and fairly smothered the Hens and amazed Toledo fans with their fancy fielding and timely hitting. Mickey Heath was the Tribe batting star as the Redskins staged an Easter parade. The jovial
first sacker collected a home run, double and walk in the first conflict of the afternoon and a double and two singles in the second. He batted in three markers in the initial struggle and two in the nightcap. Bob Walsh helped win his own game when he brought the Indians out of their dugout to do a war dance when he blasted the sphere over the right field fence with Sprinz on base in the fourth frame. Another feature w T as the hitting o. Page in the first half of the twin bill with a double and triple and sacrifice. Chief Killefei; said: “I hired 'em to pitch, not to hit, but if they want to surprise me with their swatting prowess I will believe in Santa Claus again.” Hen Fans Crushed A crowd of 4000 turned out to see the Hens bow to the Hoosiers and the double defeat was a bitter pill to the Mud Hen customers for it made the home record six defeats and one victory. The Indians found the range for ten blows in the first setto and got their seven runs off Carl Boone, who used to be a Tribester. He went five rounds and was succeeded by a lad named Irving Stein, who proceeded to halt the attack. Asa matter of fact Stein held the Redskins hitless and runless in the last four innings. He is a right hander from the Texas League. Fielding stars for the Indians were Sherlock and Stephenson. In the ninth inning Stevie ran to the fence in left center and brought down Susce's drive wi|h one hand. The ball had a three-base ticket on it. Sherlock accepted nine chances in the 7-to-3 win and some of his assists were one-handed grabs back on the grass. He also played in high in the nightcap and got a single and double. Lawson Is Trounced Toledo employed 16 players in the second skirmish as the Indians pounded the leather for 14 blows. Roxie Lawson was sent to the showers in the fifth session and the parade was on as Manager Fred Haney sought a method to halt the Hoosiers. Nichols, Augie Walsh and Collier were other Hen hurlers sent to the slaughter. Toledo was held to five hits in the nightcap, but Bob Walsh issued seven passes and Wright one. Wright fanned two Hens during the three innings he worked. He was the picture of confidence out there filling the relief role. This is an off-day in the league schedule for the Tribemen, but it won't be a holiday. They were under orders to report at the stadium at 1:30 this afternoon for batting and fielding drill. They copped the road opener and are eager to add to their laurels by repeating in the home inaugural tomorrow. Columbus will be here tomorrow and Wednesday and then move on to Louisville as Toledo comes to Perry Stadium for four games. Thursday. Friday, Saturday and Sunday. The Tribe then will visit Louisville before invading the West. The Columbus and, Toledo series here will be the last for the Indians at home until May 17.
INDIANAPOLIS, MONDAY, APRIL 22, 1935
Tribe Chatter
JOHNNY COONEY of the Indians is himself again and is covering center field in big league style. Over the week-end in Toledo he had nine putouts and one assist and got five hits, including two doubles. In Saturday's tilt the Down East veteran made a catch in the seventh inni.ig
that required the' movements of an acrobat. He went against the fence in deep center, leaped and came down with Roettger’s mighty wallop in his glove hand. And this was after a long run. The injury that kept him out of many games last year has healed and the
warmer the weather the better Cooney goes. He was a victim of two bad colds this spring, but is not bothered now. Since last Thursday Johnny has banged out ten safeties after going hitless in the opener at t Columbus on Wednesday. Otto Bluege, the new shortstop, | is another who starred over the week-end. He accepted 18 chances ! in three games and only one error went against him. Cold weather at Columbus took its toll and there are a few lame arms and aching legs. AI Ritter, Tribe trainer, has everything under control, however. The Indians completed two double plays in each game yesterday and committed but one miscue in the 18 innings of action. The boys are playing themselves into shape after a poor training season and they are working overtime to accomplish the goal. They reported at the Toledo park yesterday at 11 a. m. and took a long practice before the doubleheader. And it was a long twin bill, lasting until 6:15. Then at 7:10 they were headed for Indianapolis, arriving here at 2:10 this morning. The Indians executed a double play in the second game at Toledo yesterday that left the Mud Hens mumbling. It was an unusual two-ply killing. Al Cohen batted for Pitcher Nichols in the fifth and walked. A wild pitch moved him to second and a short single by Haney advanced him to third. It looked like the start of a rally. Parker smacked a sizzler to Bedore and Fred made a fine stop to his left. He bluffed toward Cohen to pull the runner back to third and then whipped the sphere to Sherlock in lime to force Haney at second. As Bedore cut ’er loose Cohen dashed for the plate, but Sherlock was alert and rifled the pellet to Sprinz, and Cohen was tagged out. Young Jimmy Sharp, the California redhead, just turned 18, pitched the eighth inning of Saturday's tilt and breezed by. And the kid struck out Salty Parker. Toledo shortstop, much to Salty's embarrassment. The other Tribesters were teaching the lad card tricks on the train last night. Jim Elliott and Stewart Bolen, veteran lefthanders, joined the Indians here today. Manager Killefer eased through six games on the road without the assistance of an experienced southpaw hurler. The two defeats in the six battles were near victories. Erratic fielding and hitting, caused by a shortage of practice, led to the setbacks. In the game lost at Columbus the Indians had 13 men left on base and in the one defeat at Toledo the Hoosiers collected 14 hits but only tallied four runs, leaving 10 on the sacks. The Indians have averaged nearly 12 hits a game in spite of the fact most of their spring training consisted of gym work where batting practice was impossible. The Memphis Chicks of the Southern Association have a yell which goes like this: "Get up and yell. And yell like hell. We want this came!” So let's have something on that order at Perry Stadium tomorrow. MILLER HALTS CUBAN By United Press PALMA. Mallorca. April 22. — Freddie Miller. Cincinnati (O.) featherweight, had anew knockout in his record today. Johnny Cruz of Cuba lasted seven rounds of a scheduled 10-rounder last night.
