NEW YORK, Oct. 24—It is our % painful duty to report today that once again sordid cash has scored 8 messy victory over the true sporting spirit, the consequence of which is the Pimlico Special * has been reduced to the status of Just another: horse race. © Not so many days back this ws 1dealistically conceived turf event held promise of being the race of the year. Whirlaway was going, ® so was War Relic and Market Wise, Sun Chance and—as an afterthought—the. sensational Alsab, the two-year-old champion. This was an afterthought because it was surprisingly discovered that the condition for the # race made it possible to start a ~ two-year-old. « That hadn't been the idea origiow nally. The sponsor, young Alfred 4. Vanderbilt, took it for granted no two-year-old would even want a part of the race, so the condi- - tions simply said: Weight for age, the thought being to attract three-year-olds and up. Well, all of a sudden Alsab started breaking records and reminding old timers of Man O’ War and then it became known he could get in’ the Special with what the boys call a feather, or 97 pounds to be precise, this being the meaning and sense of weight

pective starter. At this weight the experts agreed he might run away and hide from any older horses, including the triple-crown champion, Whitlaway., 8

He Won’t “start, Now

IT TURNS OUT now he isn’t ‘ going to start. Neither is Whirlaway, or War Relic, or Sun .Chance or Fenelon. There isn’t mueh money to be won. The purse is only $10,000. But the prestige is great. The winner would "automatically become the horse of the year, a distinction supposedly very desirable and important to owners. Everything about the race has the sporting touch. The co-oper-ation of the’ turfmen was needed to make it go.' Pimlico is an old track, dating back to Civil War day. It is small and stuffy and on the few big days there is no little inconvenience and no.doubt a lot of people stay away. But it has tradition and the racing is always uniformly smart’ and when Vanderbilt cooked up the Special he hoped this would emphasize the sporting spirit,

Rookies jes Look

Good; Team Is Fast, Smooth

' By BOB FLEETWOOD

heading for the eastern hockey rinks today to begin their 1941 warfare in American League hockey and Manager Herbie Lewis was very happy about the whole thing: . + 1. The Caps appear much faster and smoother. 2. They are capitalizing on the breaks, a serious fault of last year. 3. The rookies look good. In hockey as in baseball the difference between the major and minor league clubs seems to be that the big boys work a little

.| smoother and prettier. The De-

troit Red Wings were prettier than the Caps by a 6 to 4 count in an overtime contest last night, but the big league brothers encountered considerable opposition. Tonight the two squads clash again in a benefit exhibition: in Akron, O. From there the local skaters move to Springfield, Mass., to start the regular season against the Indians Wednesday night. The following night they introduce the new Washington, D. C., team to the league in the nation’s capital and then jump over to Pittsburgh for a Nov. 1 meeting. The Hornets will follow them home for the local’ league opener here on Nov. 2, Sid Abel aided by the rest of the Detroit front line, Joe Fisher and Connie Brown, did the business to the Caps in the first 10 seconds of the overtime. A goal from out front gave them a 5 to 4 lead and

: | they held it.

Front Lines Look Good Manager Lewis started Jud McAtee, Norm McAtee and Bill Jennings in the front line with Buck Jones and Dick Behling on defense. Jud has picked up some speed and 'is not so easily upset. Rookie Norm has possibilities and Jennings is as fast as ever. It was the same old ‘Buck Jones who rode the Wings into the boards and took a 2-minute penalty rest during the first period for it. Rookie Joe Turner was goalie. ; The second line was Joe Carveth, Les Douglas and Jack Keating in front with Hec Kilrea and Hal

The third set of wings and center contained Rookie Wendell Jam=jeson, Ken Kilrea and Rookie Adam Brown. Ken turned the hat trick with three goals for ‘the evening while Adam Brown along with Jerry Brown showed considerable fight and speed. Both defense lines checked well.

WHILE THE DUCK season has given a poor showing thus far, with the birds enjoying warm weather in Canada, the pheasant and quail season, opening Nov. 10, promises to provide some of the best shooting in recent years. The dry spell this summer destroyed many of the pot-

holes in the northern part of the state, spoiling some of the °

duck shooting, but to even this up the weather during the quail and pheasant nesting season was excellent

and the number of these birds’

has increased substantially. Hugh A. Barnhart, director of the Conservation Department, has reported that 157,182 quail and pheasants have been released in the last few weeks by conservation clubs. These, added to the already large populations of these fast flying birds should guarantee even a “fair shot” a few good dinners this fall

All four of them, Mr. Mitts, L. E. Dougan, Ernest Peck and Cecil Raridan easily got their limit, 25 each. . Luther is the owner of one of the best hunters in the State but left hier home this time because dogs are unnecessary in the Dakota country. Foliage is not too thick and it’s pretty rare when a wounded bird gets away. He reports the birds: out there “run fast and fly fast.” All four

“Salt Water Daffy”

HAVING AN UNREASONABLE boss who thinks it’s entirely silly for us to spend all our time , hunting instead of appearing in -the office now and then, we are forced, from time to time, to read about hunting and fishing instead of doing il. It’s vicarious. but in’ the case of “Salt Water Daffy,” it happens to be fun, too. “Salt Water Daffy,” the latest Philip Wylie book about the Florida fishing boat, the Poseidon, and her crew, makes for good reading. The crew, Crunch Adams and Des Smith, as most of you know, are those two fictional “screwballs” who would rather fish than eat and often do. The pair come to life periodically in the pages of The Saturday Evening Post.
