EAST, WEST ARE DIVIDED Chicago. Muy 3—(UP) —With tho field so rthe 58-th running of the Kentucky Derby beginning to lake ( shape, speculation today indicated that 'pre-mve seenie to be evenly I divided between east and west for I the first time in several years. | The east has won the last three ! derbies but the west apparently has I an even chance for victory Satur- > day despite the fact that an eastern : representative, Tick On now holds i Hie position of favorite. hi 1928 the west's strongest rep- j resentatlve, Blue Larkspur, went went to the post the favorite but ' finished fourth behind Clyde Van i Desen in the mud. The east won again in 1930 with Gallant Fox and in 1931 with Twenty Grand. The four leading hopes of each I section today appeared to be: East—Tick on. Universe. Economic. Stephenfetebit. Liberty limited. Gallant Sir. West Brother Joe. Burgoo King. The uncertainly of racing as so tragically illustrated by the defeat Top Flight , invincible as a 2 yejir old and the crip, ling of Burning Blaze on the sime.day may wreak Havoc with other contenders between now and the bugle call and shake up the field once more, un-1 til their elimination Top Flight was the east's leading contender and j Burning Blaze the west's. Liberty Limited, the Three D's entry with the locomotive finish, 1 which was a question mark yesterday before a mile work out, is onee more back in the picture. The Texas horse worked a mile in 1:42 3-5 easily and appears to have recovered from minor leg injuries reported a few days ago. With Liberty Limited once mole I a factor, the Col. E. K. Bradley's ' pair. Burgoo King and Brother Joe. looming more formidable every day . the west hopes to score its first vic-, tory since Heigh Count triumphed I in 1928. Eleven derby eligibles will com- . pleto today jq ihe 1-niile prepara-i tion purse at Churchliill D >wn» and i one horse which will be mist closely watched will be Gallant Sir. owned by the Northw.iy stable of Cali-1 fornia. Gallant Sir came from the far far west touted as. a real dark horse after beating most of the best 1 horses at Tanforan, but has sulked in training at Churchill Downs. Gal- ■ lant Sir is slid to be almost as big : as Phar Lap, the ill-fated Australian champion, and to have a long stride suitable for the mife and :r ryrrartcr ’ route. The derby possibilities of three other lioise--. I* ince Hotsu-pr, nominated by the late Joseph Leiter, I Gold Check, owned by J. W. Par-1 rish cf Kentucky, and Sazerac. owned by A. B.

The structural work on the Sec- ! retariat building is completed. Con- j [ struction on the Council Hall aiready has started. The foundations I lot the Assembly Hall and the RockL feller Library are being dug. , I The projaqt for a permanent. I la-ague building was advanced in 11928. After many disputes over the j i«ite, the foundation stone was' | laid in September of 1929. Active 'constructioon work on the Secret-1 ariat building did not begin until March of 1931. John D. Rockefeller, Jr., gave < added impetus to the project when | eons'ruction of the library .Since; 'ho contributed 12.0b0.00'' for the' the establishment of the 1/eaguo,! Americans have donated more than $8,000,000 toward its work Memorial Gives $25,000 The Woodwrow Wilson Memorial Foundation gave $25,000 to be used in some form as a memorial to Hie principal founder of the international iii.ititntion. The League has decided to use the money for bronze doors at the main entrance to the Assembly Hall. The prosent site of the new palace is still a subject of many bitter disputes . The Building Committee originally vnnted' to construct the palace on tin- lake, just a short'distance from the present Secretariat. An original plot of sloping land was obtained from the city, but it was found insufficient. The Committe started negotiations with an aged and wealthy j Englishwoman.

BRAINS instead of brawn may ’ dominate Uncle Sam’s Olym- , pic boxing team this Summer. Thirty-two college warriors ' have earned the right to compete 1 n the final Olympic tryouts ' scheduled for July 20. 21 and 23. at San Francisco. And judging - by the form displayed by these young men of learning in the re- ] cent national collegiate champion- , ship tourney it will take some high, I wide and handsome pummeling to ; keep them off the team.

The nalace would have been situated on a small hill on a point overlooking the lake in two directions. It would have been closer too town and the International Labor Office. But another ami less attractive site was chosen. Space for 500 Offices The offices of the Secretariat , provide space for between 500 and 600 offices. The Secretariat will I I be balanced on the right end by the ] Council Hall. This hall forms a I |break in the construction, the Assembly Hall being 'set back some distance into a terraced patio, which connects with the Council hall and I the Secretariat. The 'entrance to the Assembly Hall will be separate. Across the patio, the Rockefeller Library will balance Ihe Council Hall. All the buildings are connectlot) by covered wings, which will contain committee rpoms. In front ot the palace is a sloping park, which will be terraced to hide the , railroad trapka. ■ The League, since its foundation | has occupied the old Hotel National, once one of the most exclusive ami luxuritis hotels on the lake front. The League purchased the hotel for five million Swiss francs After some dickering, the entire ■ property has been resold for four million francs. —: —— o ......- —• — Jockey Studies Flying Paris, I UP) Geogt?

FRANCE SEEKS TENNIS PLAYERS By Wallace Carroll United Press Staff Carrecpondent Paris —(U.R) — France will seek new blood for her Davis Cup team this year for the first time since i her quartet of youthful veterans! captured the trophy from the United States iu 1927. For five years France lias chosen i her Davis Cup defense from that I same quartet—Henri Cocliet, Rene ; La Coste, Jean Borotra and Jac-i quea (Toto) Brugnon. Now because of age or illness. | not one of the four is certain of a place. Outstanding among possible selections are Christian Bossus, hard hitting left hander, who ranks sixth among French stars, and Mar cel Bernard and Andre Merlin, the schoolboy "twins” who jointly hold sixth rank. Boussus has been beaten so consistently in international play, that his younger rivals are more likely to make the team. Both have shown flashes of brilliance in single play and have teamed together to make a formidable doubles team. Moreover, Merlin worked in dou-1 bles with Cochet in several inter-1 national tournaments last year and might thus take the place of the ; ageing Brugnon. who has hitherto been Cochet’s partner in Davis Cup doubles.
