PUBLIC LOSES BIT OF CONFIDENCE IN COLT, BLACK GOLD Mrs. Hoots' Entry Last in Latonia Race —$25,000 Derby on Saturday. Tine* special ■ LATONIA, Ky., June 24.—With "he Latonia Derby only four days off. Black Gold, the sensational colt which won the Kentucky Derby, stunned his supporters Monday by finishing' last in the Derby preliminary race at the Latonia track. There were seven starters. The track was slow but Chilhowie showed a great performance, coming within 3-5 of a second of the track record in winning. Oiblon was second and Lord Martin third. The distance was one mile and an eighth. King Gorin 11, Altawood and Bourbon Boy also finished in front of Black Gold. Mooney, on Mrs. Hoots’ colt, said after the race that his mount refused to extend himself when he was given a few blows with the whip. Mooney declared that after this he did not try to punish the colt and eased him up at the finish.. Black Gold may greatly benefit by the race Monday, but the colt most certainly will not go to the post in the $25,000 Latonia Derby such a favorite as he was at Chufchill Downs in the Kentucky classic.

ALEXANDER SA YS TO PITCH WITH HEAD AS WELL AS ARM
By GROVER C. ALEXANDER Famous Pitcher. Chicago Cubs TiHE successful pitcher combines the head with the l—i arm The pitcher who has every natural ability, but doesn’t use his head, can’t hope to get very far. The great batters are constantly trying to outmaneuver the pitcher. The only weapon the pitcher has is to play their game, try to outguess them. The pitcher with a good arm should seek to conserve It. In the spring he should gradually work it into shape. Go slow on spring

WISCONSIN CREW PULLS SURPRISE Badgers Get Recognition by Fine Showing, By \f.t Service MADISON. Wis., June 24.—Wisconsin’s eight oared shell didn't win the annual rowing classic on the Hudson this year, being beaten two lengths by Washington, but the Badgers did gain a splendid moral victory. Considered a forlorn hope at the start, the Madison oarsmen sprung one of the biggest upsets in years by forcing the western huskies to the limit all the way. Cornell, Penn. Syracuse and Columbia, all esteemed highly by the experts, were outrowed. Wisconsin hadn’t sent a crew East since 1914. For several years the school hadn’t even boasted a shell. Wisconsin's showing at Poughkeepsie means more than just finishing second to a championship crew. It means that in future races Coach Vail and the Badgers will come in for serious consideration in national rowing circles. A Ring Classic Eugene Criqui. defeated French featherweight, said this after his recent downfall: “I have no excuses, no broken hands, no broken heart.”

FISTIC FANS DIDN’T SEE MUCH IN MAIN EVENT # Taylor Hooked Left in First Round and Coulon Curled Up —First Prelim and Battle Royal Best. Tlie main go at Washington Park Monday night was the main go in name only. Eddie Coulon, New Orleans bantam, didn’t last two minutes with Bud Taylor, the lithe sharpshooter
from the banks of the Wabash. Fact of the matter, Coulon didn't land a blow. He was stung early by a few of Taylor's vicious clips to the jaw and the end was sudden. Taylor was all over his opponent the instant the opening bell sounded and soon had Eddie against the ropes. Flunk! and It Was Over Punches to the face came so rapidly Coulon lifted both arms to defend his jaw and Taylor quickly saw an opening. He shifted, put his whole body into a left hook and drove his southpaw glove into the pit of Eddie's stomach. Eddie crumpled to the canvas, doubled up in pain and took the count of ten. It took only one minute thirtyeight seconds for Taylor to finish his man. Coulon appeared as though he had not fought much recently. He had some speed and was down to J2OVi pounds, but he couldn't stand punishment. Taylor weighed 11 8 1 /2 . E'rank Barry refereed the wind-up bout. >'he first scrap on the card and the battle royal provided the best entertainment for the small crowd that attended.

They earned their money. 1 The Semi-Windup In the semi-windup Willie Sullivan earned a shade over Carl Stewart in eight rounds. Willie did all the boxing in the early rounds and piled up sufficient lead to carry him through the late sessions. He was tired at the finish and stopped numerous straight, lefts, but he was entitled to the verdict because he did the work at. the start. Stewart was stronger at the finish, but he exasperated the fans in the early rounds by making It a foot race backwards.

KA WTOWN BA TSMEN FALL BEFORE PETTY’S SLANTS Jess Hurls Thirteenth Victory and Tribe Gains on Colonels , —Bailey Joins Bush's Hustling Hoosiers. Ownie Bush's Indians not only won Monday’s game from Kansas City, but they added more feathers to their caps for the day by outbatting the slugging visitors. The Blues sport a team swatting mark of .floo and they usually outhit opponents, win or lose. In the struggle here Monday, the Tribe collected eleven hits and Good’s men nine.
The second-place Hoosiers annexed the second of the series. 5 to 3, behind Jess Petty, who won his thirteenth game of the season. The Tribe lefty has only two defeats charged against him in the official records and he is the league's leading hurler. The Blues used Saladna, Morton I and Wilkinson on the mound Mon- j day. Manager Good shifted his line- j up in an effort to eheck his team's | slipping habits, but the shake-up j failed to bolster the club enough to defeat Petty. It was the Blues’ ninth straight defeat. In the third of the series this afternoon Hod Eller was slated to do the chucking for the Tribesmen. Outfielder Gene Bailey, obtained from Brooklyn in the Brown deal, reported at Washington Park after Monday's game and said he was ready to play. He was to get in a Tribe uniform today. First Baseman Schmandt was still on the sick list Monday and Whelan performed at first. -Eddie Sicking broke out ir. boils ar.d was forced to remain idle, giving way to young Ilodapp. ‘Hodee" hanged out a double in the sixth and drove in a run.

Just remember the player who has erred fee’s even worse than you do about it. To sum up my career in the big league as a pitcher. I would say that the success that h;us been kind enough to come my way has been due to a willingness to work hard, listen to advice, and observe carefully thi way the star pitchers work.

Many fans thought Allen’s clout had cleared the outer fence and they were on the point of starting a scrap when the cops interfered and ordered peace. The Indians won without the homer, but Allen lost anew hat, socks and a case of beans in prizes, when his drive was ruled good for only two sacks. _ _ '| ITH three Indians on base, \Ju none out and Petty at bat in the fifth inning Monday, Bush instructed Petty to wait out the string on Pitcher Morton and not try to hit the ball. Bush feared a double play and told Petty to act as though he meant to bunt or hit, but not to meet the ball. Petty nearly got a walk out of it, as he got the string to three and two before being retired on a called third strike. Christenbury then came up and singled, scoring two runs. Jones was next at bat and he drove a screaming liner that Shorts’op Lavan speared and doubled Hodapp off second. Bush’s strategy got the Indians two runs and nearly three because Hodapp would have scored from second easily had Jones’ drive been inches either way from Lavan.
