Justice F., Heavy Favorite to Annex Rich Racing Purse. FAST JOCK CONTENDER Sky Overoast, but Track Is Firm. By United Press NEW ORLEANS, Feb. 3.—Justice F., one of the outstanding stars of this winter’s racing, was a heavy favorite today to win the $50,000 added New Orleans Handicap. The large crowd drawn here for this afternoon’s feature at the Fairgrounds could see little else among the dozen-odd probable starters and the English colt was expected to be close to even money at post time. William Daniel of Chicago, owner of the colt, and Doc Riddle, his trainer, were confident. The colt’s recent victories and good workouts indicated he was in top form. The field presented none that looked better. E. B. McLean’s speedy Jock was the contender. The sky was overcast, but the track was expected to be good. The firm footing favored Jock. Jock had the worst of the weights, however, being handicapped at 126 against 123 for Justice F. It was believed Johnny Schorr, McLean's trainer, would send his fast-breaking Man o’ War colt, War Eagle, out to 1 race Justice F. into the ground in the early going, saving Jock for the j stretch run of the mile and a sixteenth. War Eagle, while uncertain, can show his heels to anything in the race if he decides to run. Senator J. N. Camden’s entry of Oh Susanna, Nor’Easter and Rothermel, got third choice. The Coventry Stable’s Boon Companion was a ■ contender, as was H. P. Headley’s; Helen’s Babe and Mose Goldblatt’s Marconi. Dangerous and Sanford.! the Rosedale Stable pair, deserved consideration.

the only duel meet in which Northwestern has participated this year, Lewis led all scorers with thirteen points at Notre Dame. In pole vaulting he can do better than twelve feet, six inches. His hurdle performances were above the average. However, it was in football Lewis won most of his honors. Tiny’s ineligibility comes as a serious blow to Northwestern’s present track team. Captaining the team he was a sure first in the shot and was good for several points in the hurdles, high jump, and pole vault. Although Big Ten teams will not have to worry about “Beating Lewis” any more, the big athlete still is an Olympic possibility for the shot-put.
