Blue Grass Classic Won by Gelding Kentucky Pays Homage to Clyde Van Dusen. Derby Victor. RV NORMAN ISAACS Time* A<.i.tant >por< Editor LOUISVILLE. Kv.. May 20.— Tins disappointed Blue Grass state todav paid its homage to a Kentucky Derbv winner—the great son of a great horse —little Clyde Van Dusen, the sleek chestnut offspring of Man O War. Kentucky folk had their hearts, as well as their money, pinned on Blue Larkspur, the beautiful Bradlev colt, nut it was Clyde Van Dusen who splashed his way through the niud and water of Churchill Downs here Saturday before nearly 60.000 persons to triumph in the classic race of the American turf. Naishapur. pride of the far west, ht.x second, two lengths behind the Man O’ War colt, with Panchio third, a nose ahead of Kentucky’s Blue Larkspur. The Belmont Ts Next And so today Kentucky turned its eves to the next big t“s s os the 3-year-olds, the Belmont Stakes, in which they hope that Blue Larkspur will redeem himself to some extent. Because he is a gelding. Clyde Van Dusen is not eligible for the .Belmont and instead probably will run in the American Derby at Chicago. Os course, there were alibis for the defeat of Bradley’s entry. To some it was the sloppy going—to others the failure of Blue Larkspur to get to the rail in a hurry. How It Rained! Shortly after the third race, the skies opened up with torrents of rain and the crowds scuttled for shelter—all but those hanging to their coveted rail positions. Then the parade of the twentyone contenders, the nervous delay of thirteen minutes at the barrier and then the traditional— “They’re off!’’ “Pony” McAtee pushed Clyde Van Dusen to the front immediately, the gelding holding his pace all the way around and finishing a good two lengths ahead of Naishapur, w T ho closed strongly after a somewhat slow start. Panchio was up in the running all the way. showing his liking for the mud. Then came Blue Larkspur. a length and a half ahead of Windy City. Voltear and The Nut, who finished in that order. The winner paid $8 in the mutuels. The time of 2:10 4-5 was fairly good for the condition of the track.

Conference Thinly Clads to Compete in Meet Friday. Saturday.

SIMPSON RATED HIGHLY Other Stars Also Are Figurged Prominently. BY BFRT DEMBY, United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO,. May 20.—Track and field athletes of all Western Conference schools today began final preparations for the annual Big Ten games at Evanston this week-end and judging from the form shown by several men this year it appears almost certain that several records will fall during the meet. Right now, there are eight or ten Conference athletes who endanger records each time they enter competition. On a fast track. George Simpson. Ohio State's great sprinter is capable of covering both the 100 and 220-vard dashes in record time. Dave Abbott, the Illinois two-miler who set a Big Ten record of 9:23.7 last year, is capable of bettering his present mark. If the Conference's three best pole vaulters continue in their present form anew record for this event is almost certain. Tom Warne, Northwestern, Henry Canby, lowa, and George Otterness, Minnesota, have fought for first place in meets all year and each man has bettered the present conference record of 13 feet, 3 inches. Pete Rasmus, Ohio State, has been hurling the discus close to the 155 feet. 2 inch conference record and he may be counted on for a good showing in his final appearance as a college athlete Saturday. Rasmus has won the event the last two years. Preliminaries in 11 of the 16 events will be held Friday and the finals are to be staged Saturday.
