\riRRIN r **the DOPE By VEDDF.R GARD
p—iNOTHKR letter was reAceived today from Mrs. l __ —< Malaprop, who is at Louisville and keeping us informed as to how tilings are going at Churchill Downs. The epistle follows: -Ksteanied Sir: Well, here it Is only a couple of days until the Derby and I don’t know any more about the ulterior winner than 1 did before l arrived. L thought sure that Bubbling Over hud been caught drinking, or in some other form of misconduct, when a man in a plaid suit told me the horse was to be in a Derby trial Wednesday, but 1 found out later that the judges were not present and Mr. Bradley’s colt just ran around the track. Pompey looks thin and 1 made a fox pass while looking at him Wednesday by saying, “C'rnon over, skinny.” There happened to be some eastern people around who glared at me terrible, and one fellow with pink stripes in his flannel breeches remarked so 1 could hear, ”>Shc probably never saw a race horse before,” Ho doesn’t know hew close he ' came to it. L knew 1 was in the wrong, but “when in Rome do as Iho Romans do.” so I had to 'say, "No, I never would see otic If f kept looking at THAT.” Then conversation flowed unite freely—in fact, it was bubbling over when 1 retreated in a dignified enough manner. My last crack was that the jockey would . bo Fator Ilian Pompey, which remark I jotted down to send to you. Some of the gentlemen around the hotel saj tho Derby field will bo made up of only twelve. They probably meant acres, but It looks larger than that to me. Blind will ride Bagenbaggago. Some of ihe visitors here came In on the blind baggage. They'll probably travel along with Bagenbaggago in the Derby. That's a hunch. Every one is watching tho weather closely, especially those who have wagers on Rubbling Over. In spite of the name, many of the boys around here say the horse is absolutely “dry” and even likes the track that way. I attended the races Wednesday. and if you don't believe tills is the age of women glance at the last event, loretta Brooks was first, Dolly Roy, second, and Mrs. Moore, third. I may he able to give you the Derby winner tomorrow. That’s ono day before it will be known generally. Sincerely yours, MRS: MALAPROP. * * * There Is one thing that Shorty .lordan of Tech High School baseball teiun has learned In the diamond pastime—and it is a valuable lesson, lie knows how to take the bad breaks along with the good in the same philosophical spirit. When things were going bad in the Manual game Wednesday and the opposition was hitting him hard he never lost Ills head, but kept right on trying In the end ho was the winner. But that doesn’t matter, lie lias learned one of the most valuable lessons of life on the athletic field.
Adams, Tech High first packer. Is what is known as ‘Vat’’ around that initial bag. He is not tall, but he sure can snag anything thrown his way. He is a lefthander and the best fielding prep first-baseman in this city since Ernie Burke of Manual in by-gone days. * * * mUKT how much depends upon the pitching? That is an old 'question which has been the basis of many arguments. There is no doubt but that pitching is t lie most important feature of any baseball game. The best fielding team in the world cannot stop cannon ball drives. When a club is hitting bard some of the smashes' are going to go safe. Neither can a hard-hitting club always overcome the handicap of poor hurling. Just what can he done with a mediocre outfit that is getting * brilliant box work is shown tills season by Brooklyn of the National League. A inlsflc outfit that many, who have seen the team, say looks anything like a major league contender, is up at the top through the stellar work of pitchers. ♦ McWeeny is the latest surprise that Uncle Wilbert, the magician, has taken out of his ample sleeve. I’etty and McGraw arc (lie other recruit sensations and old Burleigh Grimes has his spitter obeying ills slightest command. Walt until Vance gets back into form'. What an array. Cincinnati is right on the heels of the Robins largely through good pitching, hut the entire club appears better than Brooklyn. Wl*en one considers Brooklyn he is likely to believe that pitching is at least 75 per cent a ball cl,ub. Now argue it out, boys. * * * Oruse of Manual Is a good ball player. He made some fine stops and throws from the hot corner in the Tech game. Harmeson appears to he an exceptional hitter for high school hall. Ho has a fro© swing and cracks the ball hard.

Hoycrofter, Recollection, Champ Re Mars, and American Son. Doubtful Starters American Son and Recollection are doubtful starters. Both have worked well, but Recollection can hardly be called of Derby quality. He ran with rank platers last year and In defeating Bumpkin at Latonia last fall started an investigation which ended up in exposure of the famous jockey ring which brought about the expulsion of six riders and a ntimber of horsemen. who were accused of fixing races. The last to be declared out of the Dei by are Timmara, which came out of the Preakness in a bad way; Boot To Boot, Token, Smiling Gus and My Colonel.

LONDON. May 13—The form Bobby .Tones displayed in Wednesday’s practice round when he shot a 74 and a 76 in the face of unfa-vorable weather conditions, was reassuring to members of America's Walker cup team and their adherents. None of the Americans who had a workout on the Walter Heath and Sunningdale courses played as stiffly as might have been expected after an ocean voyage and the golfers believe a few more practice rounds will put them in condition. They plan to go to Sandwich 'Friday to try out their clubs before the St. George Vase play begins on Saturday.

LAST OF ST. PAUL BATTLES Burwell on Tribe Mound Today in Finale —Tribe Is Walloped Wednesday. By Eddie Ash. With Bill Eurwell scheduled to pitch for the Indians today, Washington Park fans figured the scrappy Saints would be given more opposition than they received Wednesday when the Tribe hurling staff was bombarded, St. Paul winning, 14 to 4. The contest today was to close the_ present home stay of the Bushmen and the team will remain idle until Sunday, when a double-header will be staged with the leading Colonels at Louisville Sunday. The Hoosiers will be back home after Sunday to battle the Colonels Monday and Tuesday. It was a parade of twirlers Wednesday, five Tribe dingers being used on the mound. The visitors bit about everything thrown and had no mercy as they sprinted around the bases. Henry started, was la It hard, and got poor support. Niles relieved. Morrison took a turn and lie was followed by Reynolds. Lofty Thompson finished. Twenty safeties were poled by the Saints. On Tuesday the Indians won, 9 to 1. On Wednesday the Saints won, 14 to 4. Strange is baseball! The Tribesmen collected twelve kits, enough to win an average game, lmt it wasn't an “average" fracas Wednesday other tljan to fatten batting averages. Harold Anderson, centerfiekler for St. Paul. got. five hits in his first five trips to the plate and he was robbed of a sixth blow in the ninth when Schreiber ran into short left field and made a sparkling eatch.

WIDE TO STAY AT HOME Swedish Distance Runner May Not Brave A. A. I’. Rulings. Bt/ Times „S neeial NEW YORK. May 13.—Because the Amateur Athletic Union has limited participation of foreign athletes In American competition, Edwin Wide, noted Swedish distance runner and rival of Paavo Nurmi, the phantom Finn, probably will not visit the United States this year. Wide is expected to remain in his native land in protest to an A. A. U. ruling prohibiting foreign stars, who come here for national championships in Philadelphia, from competing in other meets. The ruling came as a result of efforts to curb track barnstorming and avoid such arguments as arose in the case of Charley Hoff, the crack Norwegian pole-vaulter.
days for fussing with 'Umpire Goetz Tuesday and Anderson was his substitute. Needless'to say Anderson proved a tremendous sub at bat, and also in the field. Kolp went the entire route in the box for Ft. Paul and his big lead made it on easy day for him. The Saints were in their glory ami nearly every ball hit was socked squarely on the nose. Wid Matthews had nine putouts and one assist in center for the Indians, which is finite an afternoon's work for an outfielder. IVid ran all over the gardens. Eddie Sicking was out of action Wednesday and the defense around the keystone sack blew up in tight situations. Klugrnan was out of practice in the position and his throwing was erratic. St. Paul scored in every inning except the eighth. Three runs went over in the first, two in the second, one in the third, two in the fourth, three in the fifth, one in the sixth, one in the seventh and one in the ninth. It was unusual scoring for league baseball.

The Indians nearly completed a triple play in the seventh, McMillan was on third and Stuvenren on first. Wade hit. to Srliroiber. who bluffed a throw home, and then tossed to Kingman at second, forcing Stuveitgf.il. McMillan tried for home, but, was strapped and run down. Kingman to Florence to Yoter. Tn the meantime Wade kept, rumpus- and had passed second. Voter started Watle back toward second A rood throw by Voter to Sclireilver would have nailed Wade hut Kliuev's throw went wide and Watle turned and sprinted lor third safctly. , Despit the many hit* and runs Wednesday on'y two errors were charged, one aralnsf eiieli rltili.
