Purdue Prospects Bright
The rolling Irish machine faces an acid-test at Cleveland's huge stadium when they attack the United States navy before an expected crowd of 75,000. Leahy'’s Tformation annexed another triumph last week when the Irish spoiled the unbeaten record of Illinois, The Irish played sloppy football--some-
| thing they cannot do against the
navy if they care to protect their bid for America’s No, 1 football recognition. Strangely enough, Purdue's prospects were brighter than I, U.’s this week, as some fans had a shy inkling that the Boilermakers ‘might combat the passes of Tommy Farmer with the same impregnable defense that smothered the Wisconsin aerials to only 36 yards, : ‘Not only that, Purdue’s passing assault, as displayed by Tony Berto, who hit five in a row for 48 yards against the Badgers, showed definite signs of being potent enough to turn the Iowa eleven. It’s a long shot
of four out of five, but they fight hard and can be underrated,

‘Sab Withdraws From Special
The $10,000 Pimlico Special-first one-horse race in the long history of the sport in Maryland and largest “walkover” purse ever—will send the earnings of Calumet Farm's Whirlaway to $538,000 tomorrow, The racé was to have been run as the feature of the Maryland Jockey club’s opennig-day program, but became a one-horse affair when Alsab was withdrawn. Jockey Georgie Woolf will merely trot Whirly around the track and collect the purse. N Whirlaway won the $15,000 Washington Handicap at Laurel Saturday and was immediately shipped to await his engagement with Alsab, who has met him three
times. \ Victory Stake Nov. 11 ; Al @abath of Chicago explained |
{that any further purses . Alsab
might win would be absorbed by taxes and the possibility of his colt winning failed to justify bringing of | Bim here from Empire in New York and then returning him to Belmont for the Victory stake on Nov. 1l. Alsab has won $226,000 thus far this
year and needs only $13,000 more
to pass Shut Out as the leading money winner of 1942. The Special is open fo winners throughout the country. Alsab, of one or more of 24 selected races Whirlaway and eight others won all the events. No Handicap
Owners of the other eight, however, refused to run them against mighty... Whirlaway because no handicap is provided and the horses are weighted on age only. Then, too, the Special is winner-take-all with no show or place money. No entry fee is required and the purse will be all profit for Calumet Farms. Woolf will receive the customary jockey fee of 10 per cent or $1000. Whirlaway's trainer, Ben Jones, will get $1500. The last “walkover” was the 1940
