maica. She won it while Alsab and Shut Out jockeys were watching each other. "This victory by an outside 4-year-

a old filly leaves the race for 3-year-

old honors wide open. Alsab came second ‘in the field of six thoroughbreds, and Shut Out finfshed fourth. In other words the official ending of that mile and five-eights contest placed the horses as follows: Dark Discovery, Alsab, Marriage, Shut Out, Bollingbroke and Paul Pry. Thousands of dollars were lost on the Gallant Fox handicap by bettors who were positive that Al, 8ab or Shut Out would win.

A Late Bid.

They favored Alsab because that bay colt owned by Mrs. Al Sabath had beaten Shut Out once and had triumphed twice over Whirlaway, mighty 4-year-old. Meanwhile there was robust support for Shut Out, who had beaten Alsab in the Kentucky Derby, while losing in the Preakness. Yesterday's result left the score at two victories and two o Josses each for Alsab and Shut Out, in their race for 3-year-old honors. It appears now that Alsab and

Shut Out may meet in a “rubber”|

match in the Pimlico Special, Oct. 28, or both may tangle with the great Whirlaway in the Victory JE weepsinkes at Belmont park, Nov. 1. If Alsab and Shut Out keep either of these ' engagements, let's hope their jockeys appreciate the fact

that other horses are in the run-

ning. Had Carroll Bierman on Alsab and Buddy Haas on Shut, Out realized this yesterday, the finish of the $15,000 Gallant Fox handicap might have been an entirely different story. -~ Dark Discovery moved into a five-

~ lengths lead at the mile post, while

Bierman was watching Haas, and by the time Bierman and Alsab were ready to make their bid, they . were too far behind to catch up with the daughter of Discovery and Dark Loveliness.

Poly Halfback

Renews Threat

By UNITED PRESS Little Ed McGovern, fleet halfk of Rose Poly who copped Hooer scoring honors last year, rested

. In a challenging spot to defend his

title today as the Poly ‘engineers prepared to meet Earlham Saturday after two “idle weeks. - Even though he has played in only two games, McGovern has janasnd to pile up 28 points to take ird place behind Pete Varini of St. Joseph's and Bob Cowan of Indiana. The Earlham game may give McGovern his chance to forge ahead. Varini, Puma fullback, garnered six points against Illinois Wesleyan to bring his total to 36 points, while Cowan proved that Billy Hillenbrand is getting plenty of help in I. U’s touchdown-crazy backfield, by catching a pair of Hillenbrand passes for tallies to bring his total to 30 points. Cousin Hillenbrand in Race

The chase is tied up tightly, with Godfrey Heinecke of Valparaiso, and Chester Saunders and Earl Arnold of Ball State deadlocked with 24 each. Hillenbrand is close behind with 20 and his cousin, Francis Hillenbrand of Rose Poly, |is in a four-way tie with 13 points. Cowan’s fleet spikes carried him to many victories as the “iron man” runner of Ft. Wayne North Side’s track squad in his high school days: Now his elusive speed is carrying him ward scoring honors, and may prove decisive in I. U.’s tilt A With Towa this week.

Texas Christian Is Best in Southwest

Times |Special FT. WORTH, Oct. 22.—Texas Christian, during the tutelege of Dutch Meyer, has the best percentage of victories in Southwest conference play of any of the seven member schools.
