Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS
Churchill downs, louisVILLE. Kjr, May 7.—Another year and another Derby. Here we are again out on the iawn looking the crowd over. It isn’t as big a crowd as we saw last year, or the year before, but the tension, the theater and the coior—they are just as high and wild There's something about the Derby--something about any race in Kentucky—that just is a iittlc bit different. Maybe there ought to be a law against holding a race anywhere else. Writ ins forget bcct leas for a while It rfyuno. r <;u isn t los* snv money tookiii a arounc It mav not o* the mc-.t (ratifyms oart of tne Dertr.. but it Is at least the moil secure. Bu. who -*nU to b secure/ Rememoer how Perrv Rockefeller moaned when the Senouestlonea him about short seliir.*? There are a lot of oreur well-known folk* here, I mean sporting folks. You tin t beat Colonel Edward Bradley iltt.n* oyer there In his box One-two Bradley the call him out here. He's a native Kentuckian. Twice his colts have run or.e-tvo In the Derbv. Todav he has two more eoin*--Bureoo Kins and Brother Joe To all and sundry he say*. ' onetwo aasin." mm* Burgoo king is a curious name. What does it mean? Well, see that long, skinny looking man down there squeezed up against the rail. Take a full squint at him. That's the burgoo king of Kentucky. His name is Tommy King and he hails from Lexington, a full brassie shot and a long iron from here. He can cook burgoo better than anybody else in the state. In fact, he is the king cooker of burgoo. Colonel Bradley likes his burgoo. He likes King. Hence Burgoo King in the Derby today. Don’t uk Mr Klnst what bur*oo Is. It takes too long to tele Apparently It is a composite ol everything that grows over and under the earth. iTom a casual description of the dash, lasting far Into the night I am persuaded that It Is a glorified mulligan stew, with a little tar pitch and asbestos added It takes two full davs of steady cooking to prepare a real first-class short order ot burgoo, so don't try to get t; at the automat. m m m IT Is still some minutes before the Derby starts and we can't tell yet whether it is going to rain. I mention this because Colonel Bradley, who is probably the most aristocratic gambler in a nation where gambling in many phases is illegal, has made a wager of 4 to 1 that it will not rain. The colonel is a sort of one man Lloyds or London. He will bet you on the mean dandruff fall on One-Eye j Connolly's coat collar during any specific month. Ten davs ago. when Top Plight was u 3 to 1 lavonte In the winter books, hr offered to bet $20,000 against SIO,OOO that Sonnv Whitney's fillv wouldn't run one-two-thiee. The bet was made. Two days later Too Flight was shut out in a 20 cent race at Jamaica, and twenty-four hours iater she was withdrawn from the Drrbv. . , , „ . Looking around the stands. I fail to see Sonnv Whitnev. but they tell me he made reservations. I had hoped to see him sitting in the same box where he sat with his dad seventeen vear.s ago when Regret, the onlv flllv that ever won the Derbv. raced to triumph. Sonnv then was lust a little fellow and as he has • aid since, that was his biggest thrill at the track. You can imagine how mendouslv disappointed he was when Ton Flight, folded up And so were the bov. Ip the press eooo. It would have been a whale ol a varn m m m THERE'S Admiral Harry Grayson of Baltimore sitting over there with a party of friends. The Admiral used to run some mighty fine hosses. On of them was My Own. Back in 1923 My Own was scheduled to race Papyrus, the English champion, in an international race at Belmont, tut at the last minute the Jockey Club stewards decided on Zev instead. The admiral didn't know anything ; about the shift until he arrived at; the track and read the program. It j was a terrific jolt to his ambitions! but he took it like a grand sports- j man. “Ilf Zev is fit he is the hoss that should start. I think he is better than my hoss." As vou mav recall. It was hardlv a con- i test. Zev won as hr pleased. Sande was un. The Illustrious Steve Donohue England's greatest rider, had the leg up on Papvrus. There Is always somebody around readv to leer the loser, especially If he la a visitor from overseas. Sande seemed to realize this. He waited for Donohue up at the first turn and rode bark with him to the tudees stand, an unusual gesture. Generally the winner romes hack alone to receive the htp-hio-hoorav stuff. Just another little proof that the Sande guv Is an all right guv. There's Mr Josh S. Cosden going Into the SIOO booth That in itself should make him unloue Covden Is on* of the manv big Industrialists who took it on the rhin In the panic. Som* -ears back when ] the Prince of Wales visited America he was the Cosden's hou** *uest—and I am j told he olaved the Co'den tins at the j races, and with better than fair surress. Thev used to do their betting with Johnnv Walter* when betting was an art. and 1 when Walters was tb* most formidabl' I bookmaker on anv continent.

CUBS TAKE OVER N. L. LEAD AS REDS RAP BRAVES.
Lucas Halts Boston, Bruins Trip Dodgers Giants Humble Cards and Phils Shade Pirates; Pipgras Hurls Yankees Into Second Place in A. L. as Sox Snap Nats’ Streak. By Turn ft Sprrinl NEW YORK. May 7.—William B. McKechnie would like to take a train right out of Cincinnati, but he and his Boston Braves are stuck there for two more games. He is convinced Cincinnati is the most inhospitable city in the country for New England visitors, after watching the Reds topple his warriors from the National League lead Friday with a 14 to 1 triumph. A large ladies’ day crowd enjoyed the Braves’ discomfiture as the Reds made it two straight. Red Lucas limited the Bo6tonians to four hits, while his teammates garnered sixteen off Cantwell. Cunningham and Sherdel. Gilbert led the Reds' attack with three hits and three runs in four times at bat. The Braves’ downfall was enjoyed also by another western city, Chicago, where the Cubs clambered on to the top rung vacated by Boston after downing Max Carey's Brooklyn team, 3 to 1. A homer by Lefty O’Doul in the fourth prevented Guy Bush from registering a shutout. He allowed seven hits, while Mungo, Shaute and Quinn yielded eight.
A two-run rally in the ninth gave the Philadelphia Phillies a 4 to 2 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates. Big Jim Elliot limited the Pirates to seven hits and made two timely singles. McCurdy hit a single, a double and a triple for the Phils, and Chuck Klein rapped out two doubles. Bill Harris of the Pirates was found for twelve safeties. Giants Nose Out Cards The New York Giants showed oldtime fighting spirit by taking a game away from the champion St. Louis Cardinals. 4 to 3. St. Louis held a wavering one-run lead for three innings, but the Giants staged a 2run rally in the sixth to take the game. A perfect throw from Mel Ott in right field to Catcher O’Farrell in the ninth to nab Wilson, prevented the tying run. Watkins triple in the fifth with the bases loaded accounted for all of the St. Louis markers. Hogan led the Giants attack. In the American League, the Boston Red Sox lost their seventh straight game, 6 to 5, to the St. L Tills Browns, chalking up their fifteenth defeat in eighteen starts. Fred Schultz homered for St. Louis in the seventh with one on to clinch the game. Y'ankees Take Second New York’s Yankees climbed to second place by shutting out Detroit. 1 to 0. George Pipgras limited the Tigers to five hits, while Earl Whitchill, Detroit's veteran southpaw, yielded seven. Gehrig’s double and Chapman's single accounted for the lone score. Cleveland dropped to fourth position behind Detroit by losing 5 to 2, to the Philadelphia Athletics. Leroy Mahaffey allowed the Indians only five hits. All the A’s runs were driven by A1 Simmons, who doubled twice for the A's, and Rog Cramer, who collected a single and a triple. Breaking a six-game losing streak, the Chicago White Sox defeated the leading Washington Senators, 5 to 3. The Senators outhit Chicago 9 to 7, but were unable to bunch them. It was Washington's first loss in eight games and Monte Weaver’s first slab setback in five for the Hose.

Star Jockeys Out to Grab Cash and Glory in Derby
■By United Pres * LOUISVILLE. Ky„ May 7.—One of the greatest colections of jockeys ever gathered for the Kentucky Derby was booked to ride in today's race. At the finish one of these little chaps, weighted to 126 pounds, will be richer by about $5,000, the winning rider usually receiving 10 per cent of the purse, which will amount to approximately $50,000. Will it be Earl Sande, America's best known jockey; Lavelle (Buddy) Ensor, trying a comeback after nearly ten years off the track; Mack Gainer, veteran of seventeen years in the saddle; Pete Walls, who has ridden Tick On in every race of his career; Laverne Fator, striving to get back to the top, or a youngster? The oldest jockeys in the race are Sande, Fator, Ensor and Mack Garner. Sande has ridden three Derby winners. He will have the leg up on Overtime. Sande rode Zev in 1923. Flying Ebony in 1925 and then Gallant Fox in 1930 for his three Derby victories. In 1925 Sande, by a su-

Indians Keep Pace With Leading K. C. Blues by Nosing Out St. Paul
Both Teams Use Three Hurlers in 10-9 Slugfest Friday; Goldman Hits Homer; Single Tilt Today and Twin Bill Sunday Will End Series. ST. PAUL, May 7.—lndiana and Saints were ready to square off ag.jin today in the second clash of the series and on Sunday the teams will engage in a double bill with the first tilt starting at 1:30. The twin bill on the Sabbath will take care of the game of Thursday that was postponed by rain. Following the bargain attraction Sunday the Indians will move over to Minneapolis to tackle Ownie Bush's hustling Millers in a four-game set beginning Monday. It was a nerve-wracking battle at Lexington park Friday and Emmet McCanns Hoosiers barely finished out in front. 10 to 9. thereby keeping pace with the fast-flying league leading Kansas City Blues. The Tribe gained undisputed possession of second place on account of the fact that the Louisville-Minneapolis fray was postponed by wet grounds.
The field here was slippery and heavy and the weather was cool and threatening, attendance falling to anew low, about seventy-five brave souls turning out with cash. St. Paul jumped off to a lead of 4 to 1 and the Indians rallied in the fourth and knotted the count. The Apostles took the lead again with one marker in the fifth and Indianapolis won it back by counting twice in the sixth. Four Runs in Seventh In the seventh the men of McCann blasted four runs across the plate and apparently sewed up the game, but in the ninth the Saints broke loose with a cluster of four tallies and compelled Manager McCann to send a third hurler to the mound, Joe Heving, who put on the brakes and enabled the Indians to win by a whisker. Archie Campbell and Ed Strelecki were the starting pitchers and both were slapped around, the former giving way to pinch hitter Wingard in the fourth, and Wingard's single scored two mates. Leslie Barnhart took up the Tribe mound toil and lasted until two down in the ninth. The Indians batted Strelecki out of the box in the fourth and also hopped on McEvoy, his successor Elliott finishing for the Apostles. No. 13 for Tribe Barnhart received credit for the victory and the defeat was chalked against McEvoy. It was Indianapolis’ thirteenth win in nineteen starts and St. Paul’s sixteenth setback in nineteen games. The Indians collected seventeen hits to twelve for the Apostles Players compiling three blows were Angley of the Tribe and Koster, Durst and Hopkins of the home nine. Jonah Goldman of the Indians walloped a circuit drive and Fitzgerald smacked out a triple. Walker also was prominent with two hits and three runs batted in.
Indian Notes
By United Press ST. PAUL, May 7.—The champion Saints of 1931 were the pride o’ the American Association, but the aggregation under Lefty Leifield's wing this year is minus a pitching staff, excepting Russell Van Atta, who has displayed real form. Nine of the sixteen defeats against the Apostles this season were by one-run margins. nan Goldman did an Indian dance after crossing the home plate in seventh Friday. Goldie does not hit many home runs. It was a well delivered line drive and landed hlxh upon the dance hall root, and for the benefit of the Hoosier fans the left-field fence where the ball went over is about 318 feet from the plate. a a a Pid Purdy’s error in last of the ninth might have been costly as there were two out and one run came in on it, and another followed on Hopkins’ single. a a a Indianapolis hunch'd hits excellenUy. rlusterinr four in the fourth and five in the seventh. If Anxiev had not tried to stretch his safety in the seventh the Indians micht have scored several more runs. a a a The Saints got six of their hits in the first two innings, then made only two more until the ninth when they bunched four ore. Nine runs are more than Apostles have scored in all except two games this year. The team has been averaging three runs a game. ._* * * He can t hit." shouted one of the few loyal local fans in the seventh when Fitzgerald came to hat with one out and two on bases. Ray responded with a line drive triple to center. Portly Tom Angley has not been hitting. but he came to life here. He should have had a double in the fourth when hi* drive hit the scoreboard in deep right, but he skidded in the mud at first base and missed the bag and had to retrace his steps.

the dedication of the new Coffin golf links, probably on July 10. Mayor Sullivan will ask Bobby to oome to Indianapolis for two big reasons. One is that all the proceeds of the dedication match will go to the city employes relief fund used to feed and clothe emergency charity cases. The other, that in

opening such a fine course, the greatest club wielder of all should have the honors. Jones retired from active tournament competition after winning the four major titles of golf all in one year, 1930. Jonrs. after his retirement, announced he would not become an active profeanional. He made several reels of motion plrturea covering the fundamentals of golf. He then took a place upon the board of directors of A. G. Spalding A Cos., and designed the Bobby Jones club* that now are on sale. Bobby has made it known Tory definitely he will not plav anv exhibitions unless all the proceeds go to charity. Because the park board and Mayor Sullivan are morn than insistent that all the proceeds from the dedication go to charity. It should not be very hard for the mayor to put that Idea across to Bobby tn the invitation. a a a A. C. Bailee, superintendent of parks. Is not at ail certain the new links will be open to the public after the dedication. It all depends on how the course develops during the next sixty davs. A minor ailment here or a detect there will not hurt In an exhibition so If the course Is not ready for the public use after the dedication. It will be closed again until it Is readv for a public opening. mam If Jones is obtained, hit partner probably will be Bill Heinlein, state amateur champion. They will play Neal Mclntyre, Highland pro, and Ralph Stonehouse. pro at Pleasant Run. Both waived any fee for playing. It would be a great treat for local golfers to see Jones. No doubt the gallery would consist of persons from all over the state. Here's wishing the mayor lots of jiuoeess in his letter writing. mam SULLIVAN Is becoming very enthusiastic about the new links. When it is remembered the course that was constructed at much less cost than anticipated, he has a right to feel proud of his park board. When a party of leading professionals of the City toured the course on an inspection tour this week here is what they had to say: Neal Mclntyre (Highland!— It's a real course. 1 am frank to admit I will hate a hard time scoring on it. George Soutar i Brood moor'—A full force of workmen must get busy at once to keep the grass cut short and do much important fUling and top dressing. Jlmmv Lawson (Indianapolis Country Club) —That shot across the water on No. 6 is a great test of golf. Impressed me greatly. Chuck Garringer (Speedway)—The fellow who tries to roll one down the bans on No. 5 will get into a lot of trouble on such a short hole. That one sure has beauty attached to It. Roy Smith (Avalon)—l've seen a lot of golf courses and I sav without hesitation No. 4. the long 518-vard dog leg is as stiff a test of golf, as fine as there is in the country. A real championship hole. Fred Schopp (Woodstock)—Those are beautiful big greens, but they will reouire a lot of work In keeping them up. Past park boards have been in the habit of becoming near-sighted on such money factors. Herman Olsen (member of the Indianapolis Public Links Association!—That short No. 3 will fool manv a olaver on distance. It will be far more difficult to play than It looks. The trees back of the greens deceive. Russell Stonehouse (Riverside) —The olaver who can not break 100 off other courses might just as well not attempt to : plav new Coffin. It will discourage him to fall. But the course will offer a goal for all municipal plavers to work for. Low scoring ability on other courses will enable them to graduate and play Coffin with ease. Ralph Stonehouae (Pleasant Run*—l believe the greens down In the lowlands need a little more air to nrevent brown patch. Nature wll bring about some great changes In the next sixty davs. Harry Schooo <Buth Grovei—Without a ouestlon. new Coffin will be the finest municipal links in the country. It is a beautiful soot and comment about It will carrv nationwide. Clayton Schulz (Sarah Shank)—We have aulM a few Sarah Shank golfers who are ready for auch a course a the new Coffin links.

Frank Gabler IT is believed Frank Gabler. Kansas City rookie pitcher, will recover from injuries received Wednesday when struck on the head by a line drive, but his diamond career may be over. The ball, hit by Tom Angley of Indianapolis. was a terrific wallop and bounced straight back on the fly beyond the home plate. Gabler crumpled, unconscious, and after being revived collapsed twice before an ambulance arrived. Physicians fear complications may develop that will compel the youngster to remain out of baseball.
