BALTIMORE, Oct. 28.—There
are two remarkable pieces of rac-:
_ ing flesh in the old Pimlico barns ‘but: neither is going to do any running in the famous. -special. . Alsab, the 2-year-old’ champion, declined fhe issue and Exterminator is here merely as a sporting
gesture, “Still it is something to see the noble thoroughbreds, one a baby just coming into fame, the other an old campaigner who has long since been retired. There is no telling how far Alsab, the $700 bargain basement colt, will go. Competent observers ‘predict he will get better and better, "Already he’s the early favorite for next year's Kentucky Derby. But let's talk about Exterminator, or Old Bones as he was known % to the turf years ago. He's 26 years old now and this is probably the last ‘time he'll ever be shown at a public race meeting. He’ll be under colors again tomorrow to lead the fleld to the post in a handicap race dedicated to his glorious record. Exterminator, a gelding, was foaled in 1915. He was long, rangy and on the thin side. He always looked as if another helping of hay wouldn't do him any harm. That's why everybody called him Old Bones,
Couldn’t Carry on Line
~~ It is regrettable that he was ~ gelded and therefore was impossible to hand his racing blood down to following generations. Still if he had not been gelded he probably never would have compiled such a remarkable record as a campaigner. Very likely, he would have been retired much earlier, racing men customarily retire their best horses early. They are seldom in action after five. But with no breeding future. Extermidator was kept under colcrs until he lost his drive and just couldn’t do the job any longer. At seven he was acclaimed the horse of the year. Racing his-. torians refuse to mention any of the two-year-olds or three-year-olds in the same paragraph with Old Bones. That year he started seventeen times, was first ten * ‘times and won something like $80,000 in purses. ' ss ‘nm =
' ‘Bought as Work Horse
The Kilmers bought Old Bones largely as a work horse and it was only a whim of fate that put
“him in the Derby in 1918. The ~ Kilmers were counting on Sun . -Briar, the favorite, and they were using Exterminator mostly: to gallop with their star in the morning. But a few days before the ‘Derby Sun Briar injured himself. + Fortunately, Exterminator had been nominated for the event by his former boss. It was his first start of the season. Rain had left the track thick and heavy. “With Sun Briar out of it, Escoba “. was made the favorite. Extermi- . nator won by a length in a driving finish and Ped the profitable . price of 29 to 1 ... The records ‘show ‘he carried . 130 pounds or more in 35 races and came home first in 20 of _ them, an_achievement without a allel - in handicap racing in = this country, or for all we know, in any other country, too.

By RED GRANGE Times Special Football Writer
It looks like Indiana and Purdue are in for a bad week-end but Notre
Dame rolls on, as usual. Towa is due to win one from the Hoosiers at Iowa City and the Boilermakers can’t stop those Fordham backs.
‘ Army' has made an amazing comeback and has a wonderful esprit de corps, but Frank Leahy has the Irish rolling now. and Notre Dame should prevail before a packed Yankee Stadium. Until Minnesota locked horns with Michigan, the Gophers were my choice to repulse Northwestern here Nov. 1, but the Giants of the North were hit so hard at Ann Arbor, 1 have to switch to the Wildcats. Northwestern had nothing in the nature of a picnic repulsing Ohio State, but left the scene in vastly better condition that Minnesota.
Lost Key Men The Yellow Jackets lost a key man in the line, Helge Pukema, and three fine backs, including the outstanding star, Bruce Smith, were injured.
the guard who pulls out of the line to defend against passes, is hors de combat for a couple of weeks. Smith and Herman Frickey, sophomore halfback, were shelved by knee injuries, Frickey’s knee is swollen twice its size. They'll be fortunate to get in at all against Northwestern. Bill Daley, the 6-foot-2, 200-pound fullback-halfback, jammed up a big toe, but that didn’t prevent him from going for 60 minutes against Michigan,and he’ll be in the thick of things against Northwestern, But Northwestern has the strongest attack it has had since Lynn Waldorf took command in Evanston, and Minnesota must be at full strength to be the choice. Joe Rogers of Michigan will play no more football as the result of what the medical report describes as three fractures of the transverse processes on the right side of the lumbar spine. Rogers, a senior, was Michigan’s one ,good end, but the Wolverines havé enough elsewhere to get back on the right track at Illinois. Pittsburgh gets belted again on its home grounds—by Ohio State. Missouri is coming out of its most important game of the year—a savage battle in which it turned back Nebraska. Michigan State coasted against Wayne. The game is being played at East Lansing, which is ‘another reason for giving the nod to the Spartans.

Penn Comes Back
Comparing the results of their engagements with Harvard, Pennsylvania should be an odds-on favorite over Navy at Franklin Field, but I doubt that all of the midshipmen’s resources will be stopped for a second straight week, Penn’s fire, with Bert Stiff the heaviest gunner, will be much more intensive and sustained than was the Crimson’s, but I lean to the Future Admirals in what should be a thriller. Harvard will open the Big Three series with a victory at Princeton.

lumbia in New York. Yale will find a way to beat Brown. Disappointing Colgate should get out of the doldrums against Holy Cross at Hamilton. I have an idea that Andy Tomasic and Temple will successfully hurdle Boston College in Boston. Duquesne will make it six straight against Villanova in Pittsburgh. Penn State takes New York University in stride in New York Friday night. Dartmouth gets a vote over William and Mary at Hanover, but the Big Green can’t afford to pull any punches. Tulane should check high-rolling Vanderbilt in Nashville, but it will be no soft assignment. Duke should move on against Georgia Tech in Atlanta, and Alabama against Kentucky. Georgia has it on Auburn in Columbus. My figures give Tennessee the call over Louisiang State at Baton Rouge. Clemson should have no trouble with George Washington in Washington at night, Oct. 31. Texas tackles one of its more formidable S-thw-~* Mnfar~pas rivals in Southern Methodist in Dallas, but the Steers v.ciiv dic. ig up for any outfit this fall. Texas A. and.

They'll probably collide on firm turf at Palo Alto, and I'm stringing with the Cardinal attack. I like Oregon over Washington State in Eugene in the topsy-turvy Pacific Coast Conference race, and California power over U, C., L. A.

In the Rockies, it's Utah over Colorado, Denver over Colorado State, Brigham Young over Colo-

Peabody, who probably had never heard the letter R pronounced solidly in his life until Harlow taught him the word grit, has virtually assured himself nomination as All-America guard.
Coaching for 30 Years
The veteran Harlow is the man behind this sudden resurgence. He has been coaching football for nigh on to 30 years, at Penn State, Colgate, Western Maryland and finally Harvard, and apparently hasn't missed a trick. He is over 50 now, bald and adding poundage to the normal 200 on his six-foot frame. But he is just as kéen as ever at fathoming the football. player's personality and believes that the secret of a team’s success lies in every man. knowing just what he is supposed tordo and finding pleasure in deing it.

eo A ° : Tigers Give Hank A Full Share CHICAGO, Oct. 20 (U.

M. Landis . announced today. Top share of this allotment went to 32 Detroit players, but six of these received one cent less than the maximum to avoid fractions in the distribution. Hank Greenberg, Tigers’ outfielder, got a full share
