SUE winter book operatoi’9 on the result of the Kentucky Derby are likely to be heavy losers. Carlaris helped some of them out to a certain extent, but practically all of the outstanding 2-year-olds of last year will face the barrier on next Saturday. Canter was a disappointment in the Preakncss and may not start in the Derby. If the Griffith colt is withdrawn several bookmakers will breathe easier. Unless some pronounced outsider wins, the “bookies” will be hit hard. Early odds on Bubbling Over, Pompey, Rhinock and others were, of course, large compared to ihe way things are shaping up now. It is seldom that the leading 2-year-olds come through so successfully into the 3-year-old class without training accidents or the loss of form shown as juveniles. * • * GOOD guess at the Derby field would he: Bubbling Boot to Boot, Barcola, Pompey, Display, Bookman, Espino, Rhlnocli. Color Sergeant, Chance Play, Blondin, Dress Parade, American Son, Champ de Mars anand One, or possibly two, of the first four named may not start. They are all Bradley horses. Dress Parade and Recollection are doubtful starters also. It is not known definitely whether Cnnter will be shipped to Kentucky. The showing of Baggenbaggage In Ihe Preaknoss did not seem to indicate that tlie colt lias much chance in the Derby and Bradley may not start that one. The field looks exceptionally small this year, as we have said before. It makes lip in class, however, what it will lack in size. That's the way it should be. Probably not more than fifteen, at the very most, will parade to the post. ** * * SOUNG STRIP I.IXO may meet bis Waterloo next Friday night in Madison Square Garden when the Georgia youth takes on Johnny Risko. the blond baker from Cleveland. There is not much doubt but that Risko can take all that Stribling can put Into a punch. The Dixie scrapper never lias shown much of a kick, except at talking to the referee. Me loves to rough it around the ring, and will find his opponent a tough hoy to wrestle with. If Johnny gets in a few of those solid socks “Pa” and “Ma” Stribling may have to do a lot of explaining and, maybe, sjart the ballyhoo in regard to “Raby" Stribling, 'Willie's kid brother, a lightweight, who is to fight on the same card Friday. It is said the “Baby” can hit harder than brother William Lawrence Stribling, light heavyweight contender.

mHAT phrase, ‘'he goes like the wind,” seems to have taken on new meaning lately. Kvery lime somebody breaks the®] 00-yard dash record, “the wind was at his back and the mark will not. count.” Phil Barber of the University of California sprinted the century in 0.5 seconds last Saturday, but “ihe wind was at his back.” . Roland I.i<>oke of Nebraska also was aided ny the wind a couple of times. Like so many charitable intentions that are really more or less of a nuisance, so it is with the wind. A "hands-off” policy would he apppreclated by 1 lie cinder sin is. In other words, Mr. Wind, kindly mind your own business. Don't be a busy-body, forever meddling with other people's affairs. There are enough of t hem. ONE EARNED RUN mUSS PUTTY got beat by the Dubs, Monday, 9 to 0, but the left-hander's earned run record did not receive much of a, jolt. Only one of the nine was earned, and that would have been enough to beat Brooklyn, which was up to its usual tricks of not gelling any tallies for Jess, The big blow-off in ihe eighth happened after three m<% should have been retired. Maranville made a two-ha.se wild throw on \d:uns' grounder. Then Betty aided in his own downfall b.v messing up Ilenthcote's bunt. Sc oil's sacrifice fly should have been the lasi out. Then tilings started to happen—and those tilings included two wjilks, four hits and a double steal, it was a tough afternoon on all concerned. including the spectators. A cold, raw wind blew in trom the lake, making the weather anything but suitable for baseball. * * * \V ABASH plays a return base\ty ball game at Indiana Uni verslty on Wednesday and the Crimson would like to turn the tables. The game at Crawfordsville wis lost, 6 to 5. It was not so much the loss of the game as the way it was lost that rankles in the breast < of the I. U. youths. That one run margin was the result of a determined and successful effort to hand the opposition a tally, it was all very funny except to the I. IT. team. Veazy of Wabash got a walk. The. Indiana catcher thought the ball was a strike and threw the ball to first base. The first-.sticker saw the umpire wave tlie batter to first and was not prepared for the throw, the bajl bouncing . away front him. Veazy put on full steam and headed for second. Then the first baseman made a wild peg to second and th° Wabash player kept, on going. Another throw beaned Veazy on the ear and bounced into the crowd as the runner scooted home. That is what is' called magnanimity on I. U.’s part. Indiana hope* to be more stingy on Wednesday.

Tt Is planned to hold twenty-five bouts Friday night.

Tight Races in Major Leagues

Leadership in both major leagues hangs by a thread. In the American League the Yankees and Cleveland are tied for first piace with but a half game separating them from the fourth nlace Washington Senators. The Chicago White Sox are in third position by only ten (joints. Furthermore the Philadelphia Athletics have won seven straight games and ire closing in fast. The Brooklyn Robins have only a half game hold on the National League lead aver the Chicago Cubs, .’ho in turn are a half game up on ’incinnati. Today's games were of the “crucial" variety.

DERBY BEGINS TO LOOK LIKE TWO-HORSE RACE Preakness Adds Little Dope to Kentucky Classic—Canter and Baggenbaggage Fail in East.

Littl constructive In' e.miation : upon which to base a forecast of the ! result of the Derby next Saturday was obtained by turf 'gxperts from the I’reakness, except that the field proved ns mediocre as had lieen pointed out. Bubbling Over probably will rule a favorite, despite the poor showing of his stable mate Baggenbaggage in the Preakness. W. R. Coe's Pompey will be as popular as ever with New York backers. On the running of the Preakness, it looks as though the Kentucky | Derby tills year will he a “two-horse” j affair, with Bubbling Over and Pomj pey the public favorites. Display, winner of the Preakness, I will he sent to f-oulsville, in the ; same car with Baggenbaggage. It | is expected that Blondln and Go lot** l Sergeinl also will make the trip to j Kentucky.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

• The minor league veteran la Joe McCarthy, former pilot of the cham- , pionship Louisville club In the American Association. The team he lias built is the r.*2*s Chicago Cubs —not very much unlike the tail-end 1925 Culis so far as personnel goes, i nrtw resting, within a half game of first pla.ee In the National League and with an excellent chance to gain the pinnacle shortly. Not Bated Highly These (Chicago Cubs Just one month ago were mentioned as likely candidates for the cellar position. Joe McCarthy took up the job of managing the same club which veterans like Bill Killefer and Rabbit Maranville, had been unable to handle. And out of a hunch of discards and youngsters he has organized a t>all club which Is now a serious threat, despite the fact the season is so young. Spring, mid-summer, or autumn, a team that wins eight out of nine games is a team to be reckoned with. The (Albs took four In a row from the St. Louis Cardinals, three out of four from the Giants, and upset Jess Petty of Brooklyn, Monday in the first game of a series tha. Is to determine who heads the league. A i victory over Brooklyn today would ! put the Cubs on top. Like Collegians Watching the Cubs play hall is) much like watching a college team i They !>oot the ball quite consistent ly, their head work is not always of big league class and their base running smacks of the comic. But Joe Jlcfaithy apparently doesn't mind so long as his pitchers perform well and his sluggers pound the ball—because the Cubs are winning ball games. They refuse to accept defeat, coming from behind in the late Innings frequently to overcome difficult leads. They may be playing oxer their heads. They may crack In a week or a month. But they have been win ning too consistently to be passed up without some serious thought.

Wally Sparks anil Frank Shields scored 78. By this time the gallery had collected. Those tied at 73 walked to Tee 1 for the play-off. The drix’es were, beautiful as they sailed straight and fell at distant points. Stark, on stroke txvo, made an iron shot that fell six feet from the pin. The others shot to the edges of the green, except Stoney. I sing one of his iron hook shots xvitii the wind, he laid it eight feet from the peg. Stark and Stoney studied the green. Stark sank his birdie three. Stoqgy had to sink his t .vo foot longer for a halve. The ball rolled around the cup and off. Stark collected and divided xvith Mike.

A glance at Roy Smith's date book and one learns that the xvomen of Avalon are taking lessons. Golf seems to he a fine diversion from bridge. • * * Wonder if any one at the pro-ama-teur play noticed anything-different about Jack Tuitte. Stoney states that Jack has deserted Ills hip shift and has gone back to the pivot. Those glimmers seemed to add to his game.

Mrs. Roy xxas tickled xvith iter approach shots xvhlle Mrs. Crumrine did some classy putting. Both hoped the shooting was a sign of a better year. After it was all over there were two strokes betxveen them, in Mrs. Roy's favor. The caddies certainly watch the games of the persons for xvliom they carry clubs. In fact they soon learn to knoxv the golfers xvell enough to "pull'' for them. Recently a couple of doxvn cast caddies rode in xxith us and told hoxv Mrs. Bernie Lehman, “putt” herself out of the forties on both nines at Broadmoor the other day. Time and again she reached the green on long holes, in three, only to muss up good scores xxith missed putts, they said. Which probably means that George Soutar will have to get out his "putting instructions” for some high poxvred lessons.
