Barqello and Beacon Hill Top Choices to Win Pimlico Feature. DERBY GETS ATTENTION Ervast, Fast Coast Colt, Is Lauded by Turfmen. bv c;corgi: kfkkskv In ,trd I‘rfkA Stiff ( c.rr* spondpnt NEW YORK. May B.—Two of the classics of the American turf Mill be run within the next ten days. The rich Preakness stakes will take place Friday at Pimlico, Md., and the Kentucky Derby—blue ribbon event of all American horse races—will be contested for the fifty-fifth time a week from Saturday at Churchill Downs. Probably twenty horses, the outstanding 3-year-olds of 1929. will go to the post in each of the two races. Colonel E. R. Bradley's Blue Larkspur rules the favorite for the Kentucky Derby. The son of Black Ser-vant-Blossom Time won four out of seven races last year and beat Clyde Van Dusen, the Man O'Wai gelding, in his only start, this year, eleven days ago at Lexington. .. To Race in Derby Harry Payne Whitney’s horses have triumphed two years handrunning in the Preakness. and he probably will send the favorite to the post, again this year. Bargello and Beacon Hill, which will run a- the Whitney entry, doubtless Mill be made top choice because of their victories in the Kings county and California handicaps. respectively, last Saturday at Jamaica. After the Preakness they Mil! go to Churchill Downs for the Derby. F.ssarc Gets Play Among the more highly rated Derby candidates arc Baron Long's California sensation, Ervast; H. P. Headley s Paraphrase, Belle Isle Stable's Upset Lad, winner of the Florida Derby at Miami; John J. Coughlin’s Karl Eitel and E. B. McLo.Ys Neddie. Some of the outstanding Preakness candidates are Jacques Cohen’s Assare. Walter J. Salmon’s Black Diamond, W. F. Scheid’s My Sis, Charles Graffagninis Minotaur and Walter J. Salmon’s Annapolis. , Essarr. winner of the Wood Memorial at Jamaica, is getting a lot. of play among the wise money. The Preakness will be run at a mile and three-sixteenths and the Derby at a mile and a quarter.

Babe Ruth Says: Ball Players Are Not as Superstitious as Fans.

if i

ST. LOUIS. May B.—The other day I wrote about the superstitions that a lot of ball players have. But ball players, I've found out, are not one-two-three with a lot of fans. Here’s a letter that came to m 2 the other day from some chap out in Texas;

“Dear Babe—l notice that you haven’t been hitting mucli this year and I will tell you why. It’s because of year number. The Yankees have got a number 3 on your uniform, and what your number should be is 7. I'm an expert on numbers and I've been studying your number cycle and I'm telling you No. 3 is all wrong. You'll never have a good year if they don't change. Lou Gehrig has No. 4 and that’s a lucky number for him. If he keeps it he will get a lot of home runs and have a good year, and he'll beat you out. too. if you keep that No. 3. What you ought to do is get them to change your number, too, end then you would be popping that bail plenty.

“I'm writing you this because I want to see you have another good year and break the record.“ 1 got a great, laugh out of that letter and so did the boys on the club when I showed it to them. “What I need more than a lucky number is a few less curve balls to hit at,” Bob Meusel remarked. "Yeh.” Earle Combs said, “and I'd trade my No. 1 for a couple of base hits any day.” But it just goes to show how fans dope things out and how many little superstitions there are even among the people who just watch the ball games. Incidentally, mc wormed a confession out of Hug the other day that gave us a laugh. Hug lias always kidded about, superstitions ana said he wasn't superstitious, but when this letter came he broke down and confessed that he always was superstitious when he was playing, too. He figured it was lucky for him to touch second between Innings and at the start and finish of each inning he would walk over and tag second base before going to the bench.
