Smiimiiiiiiiiii™ TIRRIN’ the DOPE By VEDDER GARD
rr-ri NUSUAL Interest centered today on the appearance LrU of Bubbling Over In the fifth race of the Lexington program. The Idle Hour entry is one of tho favorites for the Kentucky Derby; in fact, is only second to Pompey in publlo estimation. It is said that Bubbling Over is in fine fettle for his first three-year-old effort, having worked out fast at the private Idle Hour training track. In tho same race is Boot To Boot, another real good one of the same stable. This three-year-old * finished second to his stablemate, Baggenbaggage, in the Louisiana Derby. Baggenbaggage and Boot To Boot will be shipped East to the Preakncss. • • • <r=-aIIEN the summer boxing VY/ season opens, May 25, at Ft. Harrison outdoor arena a rearrangement of the ringside seats will be in evidence accord; lng to Lieutenant Porter, who again will have charge of the Army shows. It will be recalled that last season the ringside seats were elevated gradually, starting from the ring platform, two rows of seats being placed on each successive rise. This season each row Will be elevated above the one in front according to the "Ixiot.” Another needed improvement is tho building Os a restroom for women patrons. • • • mT looks as though the Minneapolis Millers are not particularly fond of lefthand pitching. Pinch-Hitter Krueger’s double was the only blow off old man Cullop of Louisville on Sunday. Pitcher Henry of the Indians, another lefty, also stopped Kelley's outfit last week. Minneapolis got only one run in eighteen innings on Saturday and Sunday. The Tribe beat them, 12 to 1, on bathday, with Carmen Hill on the mound, and the Colonels got a dozen tallies to none for the Millers on Sunday. Don’t worry about the Millers. They aren’t going anywhere unless they get some reinforcements. The pitchers are nothing to brag about, and when the heavy hitters are stopped by good opposition hurling the result is disastrous to the Swedetown sluggers. If you want to worry about a club consider the Louisville luminaries, likely looking league leaders. * * • m NTH ANA University haseliall team, facing the loss of many of its veterans of last season, does not seem to have a chance to repeat its Big Ten championship of 1925. The new performers are proving unsteady. and the pitching very mediocre. The loss of Hall, star shortstop, who was injured in a southern training trip game at Vanderbilt, was a severe blow to the Crimson hopes. Davis, who has been playing the outfield has been moved in to fill the hole at shortstop. I. U. was swamped In Its first conference game at Ohio State, last. Saturday, 16 to 0, and faces a strong Purdue team at Bloomington on Wednesday. The Boilermakers have been playing fine ball. They lost their first game of the season on Saturday to the classy Michigan University nine, 6 to 4. The slants of Jablonowski proved too much for Lambert's men. The dopesters give Purdue a decided edge over Indiana, but one never knows what will happen when these two get together. Seven games are on the Big Ten card this week. The schedule: .

Minus the rain, there* was wind and cold. The weather did not stop the real golfing enthusiasts, however. Highland Oolf and Country Club was fairly deserted, although here and there could be seen a two-some or a four-some, practically always made up of male members. At Broadmoor the grand opening planned for last week was scheduled for Sunday. George Soutar informed us that the opening has again been set over for another week, and will take place next Sunday. • • • After Wolfe drove several down the middle, Soutar, looked over at him and said, “You better come over hero and tell me how.” • • • Far be it from this column to take any glory from those who deserve It. Wo said that Tad Jones shot a 76 over the Riverside course, but it was Tad Brown who did the shooting.

Experts Busy Trying to discover What Ails Macks and Sislerites. By Henry L. Farrell, United Press Staff Correspondent. NEW YORK. April 26.—Like most any manager whose prospects are slim in the spring, Connie Mack, veteran manager of the Athletics, believes thajt better times are coming. The most absorbing topic in the American League concerns what ails the Philadelphia Athletics and St. Louis Browns. They have won only four games and are tied for the cellar. "The boys aren’t hitting right. There's nothing the matter with them,” Mack said here today. “If we have to get in a bad slump—and we are in one* now—l would prefer to have it at this stage of the race. “Many of the clubs ahead of us are playing over their heads and midseason will knock them down.” It was observed last week in Philadelphia that the fans are not as sanguine as the manager of the club. There were reports that dissensions on various issues had disturbed the spirit of the club, that certain cliques w*ere against Chick Galloway and Mickey Cochrane. It is too early to count the Athletic and Browns out of the pennant race, but the race is reaching the stage where they should begin to show something. “Looks like the Yankees are the club that we ll have to beat,” Bucky Harris, wise young manager of the Senators, told the writer.

Bu Times Special NEW YORK, April 26.—Tht Amateur Athletic Association will not accept. as official tlie world’s record of 9 5-10 for the 100-yard dasli made by Roland Locke of Nebraska L’., in tho Drake relay carnival. A strong wind blowing at the sprinter's back gave him a slight advantage and in the past such a circumstance has been sufficient to cause officials to decline to allow new records. Locke is recognized, however, as one of the fastest runners who ever pulled on a spiked shoe, and if he comes East for the intercollegiate? likely will find no one able to steu within ten feet of him. The Nebraska star equalled the world’B record of 9 610, which has Stood /or twenty years, in‘the Kansas relay carnival April 17.
