SMALL FIELD FOR KENTUCKY DERBY Probably Only 15 Colts Will Enter Annual Classic Next Saturday N-w York. May 12 —'U.R) —One f the smalles fields in years—possibly numbering 15 —will face the barrier in this year’s Kentucky derby. Tlte four oustanding eastern contenders already have bom sent to Louisville, including Gallant Fox. the Preakntss winner, which probably will start an even money favorite. Failure of any of the 3 year-olds which will meet Gallant Fox in the K'. ntucky classic to show anything out of the otdinary in recent trials is responsible for making this derby appear a one-horse race. Gallant Fox, with Earl Sande up. seems much tile class of a mediocre field. Tlte mid-west, particularly the. B!u<“ Grass region, will muster its strength this week to oppose William Woodward’s stout hearted colt in Saturday's race, and magy, an eastern favorite lias gone down to defeat in the Kentucky derby. There are four outstanding westrn colts which are likely to canstouble for Gallant Fox. These re tlie Audley farm's Gallant Knight, E. F.

America, being two and one-half miles long, and easily able to accomodate the additional cars which will bring the total number of •sta’ters to two score. ‘ Becans, • of the increased interest tliis year, as a result of two man cars and the increasing of piston displacement in motors powering tiie race cars, we wanted to give as many capable cars and drivers as possible an opportunity to race for the honors in the 509mite run," explains T. E. "Pop" Myers, general manager ot the IndF.inupons t'.uck since the first 500tni’e race was held here in 1911. Qualifying trials are held at Indianapolis the week before the race to determine the starters. The cars line up in the order of speed they make in the four qualifying laps. Only the forty fastest cars are permitted in the race. Forty starters will insure many a race within the race. The front runners will be battling for ranking positions; conservatives will be in .he second flight; hangers on will be in th? third field division and many a fight for positions will be contested in the ruck. o » Real Joy of Life Satisfuctlon, real satisfaction, el ways comes from within.
