LIKE OSMAND IN DERBY

to Ride Widener —-Gelding, Report—Other w Eligibles Discussed. The ‘‘derby hounds” are beginning to look forward to the 1927 turf classic at Churchill Downs, Louisville. i-yißd there seems to be “a leaning” toward Osmand, an eastern horse, of the Widener stable, as the early "standout.” America’s greatest horse race will occur May 14 in the Kentucky metropolis. Qsmand is a chestnut gelding by ■Sweeper-Ormanda and is owned by the Philadelphia horseman, Joseph E. Widener. This youngster, in seven starts last year, captured six - races and finished third in one event. H displayed gameness and dash. Favorite .Jockey 4 It is said Earle Sande ■will be up on Osmand and many dopesters always place soive money on his Derby mount. Earle rode Zev and Flying Ebony to victory in the Kentucky classic. It is rumored, but not verified that Chance Shot and Scapa Flow have been withdrawn. Justice F, the crack Dixie eligible, is “liked” by many, and several form .sheet readers say they will take a chance on Rip Rap as a long fehot. •Justice F Popular Justice F is owned by William jßdamels and the owner is telling his not to overlook the colt, which has won handily in several races after conceding weight. Jus- ; tjce F has displayed ability to come from behind or maintain a swift pace if he gets off in front. This colt is liked especially in Louisville. Other Derby candidates Kentuckians are showing some enthusiasm over are Rolled Stocking and Wood Lore. Fair Star gets much mention and a few other names heard discussed as likely looking long shots are Sweepster, Jopagan, Valorous, Sakari. Whiskery and Dolan. The official list of Derby nominations will be announced Feb. 26.

TECH IN BRILLIANT VICTORY Green Defeats VincennesFour Other Local H. S. Fives Lose. Technical's 32-24 victory over Vincennes at the Armory Saturday night overshadowed the so-so performances of the remainder of the local high school quintets. Manual, Shortridge, Broad Ripple and Cathedral encountered stiff opposition and went down to defeat, the East Siders being the only Indianapolis live to turn in a victory. The Green and White five jumped into an early lead and never were headed. The score at the half was 18-14. Thompson, Massy and Grinislcy starred for the locals while Pielemeier. Heady and Disinger played well for the Alices. Manual fell before Wiley of Terre Haute, 22-14, in a slow game. Brownsburg broke loose late in the game to defeat Broad Ripple, 44-31. Shortridge had a crack at the victory brick but could not cope with the fast attack launched by the Greencastle five. The score was 38-18. Beech Grove repeated its early season trick by defeating Cathedral for the second time, 23-21. Close guarding in the seesnd half had the Irish tied up in knots. •

son with what they believe will be the strongest team they have put on the field in many campaigns. “Old Man” Fournier Foremost among the newcomers is Jacques Fournier, experienced and hard-hitting first baseman secured from Brooklyn this winter. He is expected to be an improvement over Dick Burrus, who had a poor season in 1926. Ranked close to Fournier In new potential strength is Lance Richbourg, sensational outfielder obtained from Milwaukee for $35,000. Richbourg and Eddie Brown, local star of last season, are expected to fill two outfield berths. The third regular outfield place probably will be contested for by the veterans Jimmy Welsh, Jack Smith and Leslie Mann, and a newcomer, Red Barron, Georgia Tech football star of three seasons ago. Among Twirlers Additions to the pitching staff include Charlie Robertson, who pitched a not-hit game for the White Sox several years ago; Eimer Knight, secured from the Phillies this winter; Kyle Graham and Harold Goldsmith, both from the Providence team; and Herman Holshauser, a likely rookie from the Charlotte (S. C.) Club. Frank Gibson and Zack Taylor, regulars; Oscar Sehner, substitute backstop last year; and Francis Hogan, acquired from Lynn, will comprise the catching staff. With Andy High at third and Manager Bancroft at short, the left side of the infield undoubtedly will be the same as last year. The big fight probably will involve second base, for which Doc Gautreau, Eddie Moore and Herbert Thomas, who comes from the Providence team, will be the chief contestants.

HINKLEMEN Bulldogs Defeat Marquette Five in Fast Tilt. Bu Times Special MILWAUKEE, Wis., Feb. 21. Butler University of Indianapolis defeated Marquette here Saturday night, 35-23.

Christopher, Chandler and Chadd starred for the Indiana five, while Ed Herte and Dostaler played well for the locals. SPRING GRID PRACTICE Bu United Press BLOOMINGTON, Ind.. Feb. 21.
