Season’s Third No-Hitter Turns Out

Run Rain Keeps

By Eddie Ash

TWELVE colts and one filly form the field of probable starters for the revival of the $65,000 American Derby at Washington Park, Chicago, Saturday. In this starry field are 3-year-old developments from California and the Atlantic seaboard to match their speed

against the best that the Midwest can produce.

Upwards of 40.000 are expected to jam the racing grounds on the South side of the Windy City to see this 30th running of the historic nile-and-a-quarter race for 3-year-olds. In it may be established the divisional champion of the year, a season in which the 3-year-old crown has shifted from head to head until now in August thy honors are still held in abeyance. Charles J. McLennan, Washington Park's racing secretary, yesterday checked the list of 58 nominations for probable starters in the Derby and found the “probables” forming a representative field. . . . Only filly pointing for the race is Woolford Farm's Inscolassie. ‘Right now the race for the divisional championship is wide open and the Derby is well placed to establish the year's champion—or, at least, to place the claims of one of several horses on solid footing,” McLennan said. :

California Sends Two Powerful Contenders

ON THE grounds at Washington Park are two powerful Califor-nia-developed threats in Charles S. Howard's Mioland and W. B. Simpson's Weigh Anchor. Weigh Anchor, owned by a Chicago sportsman, won the Tanforan Derby, finished second in the Hollywood Derby and third in the Santa Anita Derby. Mioland is a stablemate of Seabiscuit and Kayak II. Trainer William Hurley assured McLennan that Col. E. R. Bradley’'s Bimelech, winner of the Pimlico Preakness and the Belmont Stakes, will be shipped out for the Derby from Saratoga this week. TRAINING BRISKLY at Washington Park is Mrs. Ethel V. Mars’ Gallahadion, hero of the Kentucky Derby and second in the Classic The strapping son of Sir Gallahad III has been one of the most consistent of the divisional leaders and may rise again to the heights in the American Derby. Several other eligibles are expected to compete . . Among them are Belair Stud's Dusky Fox, Manhasset Stable’s Call to Colors and C.V

Whitehead From Glory

But His Feat Cleveland to Top

Helps

By GEORGE KIRKSEY

United Press Staff Correspondent. NEW YORK, Aug. 6.—The third no-hit game everyone

was looking for has finally been pitched but it turned out to be a fluke.

Whitehead, whose

Johnny appetite and thirst caused him to be traded down the river by Jimmy Dykes a couple of years ago, was the author of the majors’ third no-hitter but he won't get credit for it. After blanking the Tigers for six innings the rains came and washed out Whitehead's opportunity to join Bobby Feller and Tex Carleton in the hall of fame this season. Whitehead's two-thirds of a perfect game came as a surprise as

‘he was just hanging on with the Browns after being recalled from [the minors. He had lost three games

the line of the putt the other counteracts the tendency, aided by the broad grip. “With this putter, I think I am going to be as good on the greens as people seem to think I am. “In putting, a fixed position is important. This broad grip helps to insure that. Of course, it isn't foolproof. Body sway, putting po-

up true to the face, and if you aim it right the face cannot help but be in the same line. “I've always felt that if I could get a better feel of the head of the putter I would do better,” says Paul. “This idea of a flat board evolved from various experiments. “The idea is I can’t turn it with

holeabie putt with the weapon. Paul's new putter is orthodox in face and shaft. Its novelty is the grip, described best as a paddle-shaped block of wood. The Runyan putter hasTno wrapping. He attached the paddel to his regular putter, The advantage, that gives a

grip. It can be used with any type of blade.” Paul has taken out a patent on the grip, and his company, the Horton-Bristol Mfg. Co., soon will put the club on the market, Although radically different, the Runyan putter is absolutely within ‘the rules of golf. “Practising for the Red Cross

yan. “That sounds easy, but try it some time and youll find it isn't. It proves this putter lines the ball up consistently. “The new putter has ended my fear of ending up three feet or so from the cup on my first putt. I never miss those any more, and | gg2 that insurance alone is worth | plenty.”

Dixiana's Sirocco, winner of Arlington's Classic Stakes, will come on from Rockingham Park to fill his engagement, Trainer Jimmy Smith advised McLennan. i | |
