Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS
Louisville, Ky. May 4— The boys are saying that anything ran happen in the Derby Saturday, that it'* T mad. dizzy sports season anyhow, and what s more, it's time another long shot came down in front. Every so often there comes a season when the grand old dope is smacked all around the premises, and this is starting out like one of those bleak epochs. Just look what is happening to the Cards and Athletics. And how many times has Vines, the tennis champion been beaten in the last two months? On* rexxor why the bov* expect the unexpected m the Derbv It iht thev do nol hold the rompeting field in anv too tush retard Thev tell you there wn’t a real sUnd-out coit In the race, and certainty there Isn't anythin* around that looks like a Twenty Grand 'The fart Is." savs one of the boys, "there Isn't a trulv area' three-year-old In the game thlx tear The tin oft caine last vear when Too Flight beat every colt ahe faced. Vea air. when a tlllv can do that ana keen on doing It von can oe Oreltv ure the colt* aren't much good .” Favorites have won ihe last six derbies In a row. a long stretch of sustained form This Is what the bovs have in mine when they say It s about time another lone shot won Th' las' ilonp shot to w;n was Ze<- at 30 'o 1 with Earl Sind* no. s victory that broke the winter books. mum THE current favorite Is Tick On, and he will get the heavy play. But Tick On Isn't a stand out like Twenty Grand or Gallant Pox or Reigh Count. The best race he ever ran was when he finished second to Top Flight in the Futurity last year, coming up from eighth position at the half mile. No. you wouldn't call the Loma Stable star a standout—but as the boys say, what other colt is? Asa general proposition the Derby ts • truly run race and the best hoss will not lose any oftener than he will win. It that sounds confusing, what I am trying to sav is that the best hoss has at least a flftv-flftv chance. But tn a vear like this, with form running for the mvsterlous Mr Saeenev anything is liable to haooen. A thing like Cathoo Sazerac or Indian Runner tnav stagger across In the lead. The biggest jolt form ever received in the Derbv was when Donerall won in 1 • 13. oaving $lB4 90 for a S3 ticket, the orlre itself being evidence enough that there were not verv many $3 tickets sold. The favorite that vear was Ten Point and h finished second with Cowell a flllv. third. Roseoe Goose rode Donerall. He s still around, training hosses. It does not always follow that Just because a field looks mediocre that It does not Include some real good hosses. Nor does It alwavt follow that a lonr shot winner lacks greatness. Exterminator came to th- derbv an unknown to win at 30 to 1. That was the beginning of * brilliant career. All told "Old Bones" won $22 588 for his owners before calling it oults Sir Barton was one of the few untested colts whose greatness was generally accented before he ever entered a race. In fact, he made his first start In the 1919 Derbv and won It. the first and only time this has ever been done. So well thought of was the untried youngster that he was backed down to 13 to 5 m m m INEVITABLY, all the great hosses are compared to Man O’ War. and I suppose it is true that he was tops. Still, Sam Riddle, his owner, balked at sending him against Exterminator at weight-for-age. In 1920. Man O' War was 3 years old and Exterminator was 5, right in his prime. It would have been a thrilling thing to watch these two giants of the turf match strides over a distance. I don't think fhere is snv doubt but that Twenty Grand was the greatest horse since Man O' War's time He did about eservlhmg ihev asked him to and usuallv he did it In record time. It will be a lone time, for Instance, before his Derby mark of 201 4-3 is broken The bovs say it never will be hut, “hen. the bovs are always saving silly things like that.

Giants Hand Dodgers Win, Sink Deeper in N. L. Cellar
n t nitcd Prr* NEW YORK. May 4.— Determined, it appears, to delve into the deepest, darkest secrets of the National League cellar, the New York Giants blew their second straight game to the Brooklyn Robins Tuesday. The pay-off came in the ninth inning, when the Robins, trailing by four runs, scored eight runs on seven hits and two errors for an li to 7 victory. In this mad inning, no less than thirteen Robins paraded to the plate. The finest contribution to the rallv were a home run and double, the first by Johnny Frederick the second by Joe Stripp. Frederick had a field day at the expense of Fitzsimmons, Mooney. Mitchell and Gibson, the Giant pitchers, getMns five hits, driving in four runs and scoring two himself. The Giants looked much the winner until the ninth. They got to Phelps for four runs in the first inning. picked up another in the third and two more in the seventh on Len Koenecke’s home run. The game marked the first time this season that Bill Terry. New York first baseman, failed to get a hit. Chicago’s fast-traveling Cubs scored five runs in the seventh inning to whip the Pittsburgh Pirates, 8 to 6 and even the series. Billy Herman led the Cubs at bat with three singles and a double. Stanley Hack did his bit by knocking a homer inside the field in the third inning. The amazing Boston Brave" held on to their top perch in the National by blasting the Phillies, 9 to 4. Boston started off fast, getting seven rims before the game was half over. Old Tom Zachary did noble relief work .'or the Braves after replacing Seiboid in • the

Shade Bobs Way to Triumph
Over Tramblie; Cox Tops Bill
Dave Shade, the veteran California middleweight, weaved and bobbed his way to a ten-round derision over young Ray Tramblie. Rockford. 111.. Tuesday night at the armory in the main event of the weekly American Legion card. • Shade made the Illinois fighter miss consistently, at the same time scoring often enough with a left jab to register a rather slender margin. Both fighters were such light punchers, the ringworms complained audibly that the bout was a six-eight waltz affair and that Shade, in particular, was pulling his punches. Tramblie forced the fighting in ♦he early part of the scrap and had Shade bleeding profusely about the mouth, but the California scrapper

Other extremely doubtful starters are Indian Runner, Big Beau, Our Fancy. Gee Tee, Rowdy Boy, Sazerac and Cabezo. Adobe Post Surprises Os the fifteen listed in the prospective field, seven are eastern representatives and eight westerners. Tick On, Universe. Economic and Stepenfetchit are the east's leading candidates and Burgoo King. Brother Joe, Liberty Limited and Cold Check apparently the west's most formidable contenders. Hopes for a western victory received little encouragement Tuesday when Adobe Post, given little consideration as a Derby prospect. won the Preparation Purse at onei mile at Churchill Downs. Prince Hotspur was second and Cold Check third. Gallant Sir, the big California horse, was a distinct disappointment, finishing in sixth place, and Our Fancy, Gee Tee. Sazerac and Cabezo practionally eliminated their starting chances by finishing seventh, eighth, ninth and tenth, respectively. The elimination of Top Flight and Burning Blaze last week, and the inconsistent performances of most of the other contenders lends support to the opinion of many horsemen that this year's Derby field lacks class. Sande Accepts Mount The decision of Earl Sande to accept the mount of Mrs. J. H. Whitney's Overtime, which finished third to Evening and his stablemate. Stepenfetchit. in the Chesapeake stakes last Saturday at Havre De Grace, probably will make the Whitney entry fourth choice. Overtime and Stepenfetchit will be coupled in the betting. Sande will be trying for his fourth Derby winner, anew record if he should get Overtime home first. He rode Zev in 1923. Flying Ebony in 1925, and Gallant Fox in 1930. The probable odds were quoted today by a Chicago bookmaker as follows: Tick On. 5-2; Universe. 4-1: Bradley entrv. Bursoo King and Brother Joe. 4-1: Whitnev entrv. Stepenfetchit and Overtime. 8-1: Liberty Limited. 8-t: Economic. 10-1: Luckv Tom 15-1: Cold Check. 15-1; Brandon Mint. 20-1: Adobe Post. 25-1: Prince Hotspur. 25-1: Cathop. 30-1: Gallant 81r. 50-1.

She can run again, but can she sprint with the speed that carried her to international fame in the' 1928 Olympics? The answer to that question is what Betty Robinson, above, is seeking. Betty suffered fractures of the left leg and arm in a plane crash last summer and doctors said that if she survived, which was doubtful then, she never would sprint again. But Betty even then had her plans made for the 1932 Olympics. And here, she is drilling in the gym to remove muscle stiffness caused by months of inactivity. She is a Northwestern university co-ed.
Warm Weather, Road Trips Expected to Tighten Races
By United Pret* NEW YORK. May 4.—John A. Heydler, president of the National League, expects warm weather and raod trips in the next two weeks to reveal the probable relative strength of major league baseball flubs. “You cant tell anything about the pennant races yet." Heydler said Tuesday night. “We’ve had the worst early season weather in the past there weeks that I've ever seen, and as a result everything is topsy-turvy in both leagues. You can't judge baseball players on what they do in freezing weather. “But I expect the combination of warm weather and the intersectional shifts during the next two weeks to shake the clubs into some sort of indicative alignments. 1 ’ “When these first road trips are over,’’ he continued, “you cah start figuring who’s who and what's what, but not before.’’ By tonight. National League teams will be shifting westward as follows: Boston to Cincinnati, Brooklyn to Chicago. New York to St. Louis and Philadelphia to Pitts-

! Tribesmen Tumble to ! Third as Blues Win Archie Campbell to Face Cowboys in Series Finale Today: Burwell Shines on Hill, but Indians Fail in Pinches and Bow. BY EDDIE ASH Time* SoArt* Editor KANSAS CITY. Mo.. May 4.—Emmet McCann's Indians were to windup their stav in Kawtown today and the Tribe athlete* were to depart for Bt. Paul immediately after the contest this afternoon, leaving on an early train. The Hoosier pastimers are booked for four games in the Apostle city, and will be compelled to do some tall hustling this evening to make train connections. The players will dash out of the clubhouse into a fleet of taxis and will be on their way to invade the twin cities, St. Paul and Minneapoks. Visits to Louisville. Columbus and Toledo will follow before the Indians again perform at Indianapolis on May 22 against Columbus. There was a chance for the Tribesmen to obtain an even break with the Blues todav in the series finale and Archie Campbell was slated to pitch with Tom Angley back of the bat. Angley's flve-dav league suspension expired Tuesday and he was eager to see action this afternoon, i The husky receiver worked out in practice Tuesday and looked to be in top shape. Manager McCann slated himself to start at first. ba*e today and there was promise of a red hot contest as the Hoosiers concluded their stay in Kansas City.
Bill Burwell. veteran right-hander, found his old stride Tuesday, but was shaded in a mound battle with Lou Fette of the Blues. Eddie Zwtlltng's athletes annexed the fracas. 2 to 1. and gained undisputed possession of first place, toppling the Indians to third position as Ownie Bush's Millers downed Columbus and grabbed the league runner-up berth. Tribe Fails In Pinches The men of McCann failed to come through in the pinches behind Burwell and eleven of them were left stranded on the bases, only one run scoring on nine hits and thiee walks. There was some consolation in the defeat, however, owing to the fact Burwell turned in a splendid job of hurling and convinced the Tribe chiefs he finally has recovered form. Pitcher Fette of the Blues helped win his own game with two doubles and was entitled to top laurels of the day. In the third inning, with one down he sent Dunlap to third with a two-cushion smack and Dunlap scored on a long fly by Marquardt. The Indians tied It up in the fourth when Walker doubled, leading off. advanced to third on Fitzgerald's long fly and scored after the catch on Riddle's deep cloud scraper to Mosolf In center. Fette Clouts Double What proved to be the winning marker for Kansas City was chalked up in the fifth. Fette doubled to left after one out and scored on Marquardt's two-base blow to the same territory. The sixth stanza practically took the heart out of the Indians when they failed to score after getting a rally under way. Sigafoos opened with a single, and after one down. Fitzgerald hit the score board in deep left center. Slow base running by Sigafoos robbed the Indians of a marker, for he hesitated between first and second and was forced to stop at third as Fitzgerald easily reached second Wingard Gets Three Riddle was up next and bounced an easy roller to pitcher Fette on the first offering and Sigafoos was trapped and erased between third and home. Fitzgerald reaching third and Kiddle second. A great play back on the grass by Marquardt on Burnell's bid for a hit retired the side. Ernie Wingard, playing first base, collected three of the Tribes’ nine hits. There were eight doubles and one triple during the contest, with Kansas City walloping the threebagger and five of the doubles. The Indians touched off a spark in the
