BOWLING HOCKEY WRESTLING

The New England horsemenls dinner, one of the most popular lUllCtlﬂlS of the year at which horsemen, gather from many states and which was to have been held at Hartford, Conn, was flooded out on the date get, March 19th. Twenty-Live visitors were present when the roll was ca‘led> on the 19th, so it was decided i0 have "something to cat." The dinnci- was served by candle light as Hartford power station had been flooded and no electricity was available. Tele- grams of regret came in from all over. stating inability of guests to get through. There were 447 reser- vatlons.

At Topsfield. Mass. one of the leading harness hcrse training cent- res, flood waters became so high that horsemen had to etand in line nearly to their armpits in water and pass along hay and oats to other trainers who were marooned by the flood.

The medicinal qualities of on- ions have been known for thousands of years. It remains for a success- ful harness horse driver, Charlie Lacey of Butler, Pa, to find a new use for them. Charlie says: “An

apple a day keeps the Doctor away,

but an onion a day keeps disease away,” so he always has on hand an ample supply of large onions

cameras at all tracks this summer and this step will likely be fo1low-, ed i; Massachusetts and other states. Herbert Swope, chairman of, the New York Commission, points out that the device has already proved of high value at the Santa Anita and Miami tracks last winter and 5€l'V':’s n5 a wonderful check on the judge; in races where the lin- lsh is disputed.

The record number oi 75 two year old trcttcrs have been named 1n the Good Time Purse that will be raced at Good Time Park, G0- shen, N. Y.. in August. The cami- val of racing there has attracted the largest entrylist of all classes of horses_of any meeting in recent years. In the Progressive Purse, first division. for trottcrs that have tak- en records faster than 2.04, there are eighteen entries. The total en- tries in the week's racing must run to well over 300.

Speaking of notable campaigners of the long ago that have sold fol‘ a song. L. G. Duffy, writing in The Harness Horse, says: “Maude S., who changed hands at $40,000 in 1888. once sold for $250. Flora Temple. afterwards champion trot- ter, sold for $13. as a four year old. Dexter 2.17 1-4, her successor, brought only $400. the year of his start to fame. In recent years, 1933 to be exact. the dark brown two year old Calumet Evelyn, sold at auction for $250. Today she holds four world's records and L; priced at $35,000.

S: common has the practice of "ringing" or substituting one horse for another become in running rac- ing in France, that the authorities have worked out a system of Nose- Prlnt identification for race horses. on the same principal as finger prints for human beings. A scandal was unearthed there recently when a well known runner on which there was a yremend -us amount bet, ran almost, last in his race. it was reported afterwards that a horse carefully disguised but resembling the real entry, had been substitu- ted. Pedlgreed dogs are nose-print- ed for identification, hence the transfer of the idea to horses.

Cooper Leads In Augusta Golf Tourney

(By Alan Gould) (Associated Pres Sports Editor) (AI. By Guardian‘; Special Wire) AUGUSTA. Ga.. April Ii-Riding high on a cold gale that all but ruined this year's comeback hopes of the great Bob Jones and other- wise buffete_d an all-star golf field unmercifully, "Lighthorse Harry" Cooper galloped out in front today in the firs: Qﬁﬂld of the $5,000 Augusta Nalirnul invitation tourna- lnient.

The Chicago professional, form- er Canadian Open champion, out- ‘shot old man par and his nearest ‘rival by two stroke; with a 70 that 'was sensational under the treaeh~ erous scoring circumstances.

Cooper, with a pair of 35's. took ‘Ithe lead frcm the veteran Al Espin- osa, professional at the Mexico ‘City Country Club, who had a par- equalling 72.

Dropping quickly from the op- timistic spat of 6-1 betting favorite, Jones started so badly he had a hard struggle to finish the first round in 7B, tied for 26th place in the field of 53 starters.

Jones’ playing companion, Gene Sarazen. who won last year's Aug- usta battle with the aid of a "double eagle," had to drop an eight foot putt 0n the 18th green for a birdie three to duplicate Jones’ 78.

Nearly a score of players failed to break 80 and Craig Wood of New York, runner-up here for the past two years, had an 88.

A , trio of professionals, Bill Burke of Cleveland, Ted Luther of Youngstown, Ohio, and Horton Smith of Chicago the 1934 tourna- ment winner, tied ior third place with 74's A half dozen others were deadlocked at '15, including the late professional recruit. Lawson Little, Jr., of Sari Francisco.

Red Wings, -Favorites To’ Capture Stanley Cup, Hit Fast Clip Against Olympics

(By Elmer Dulmage Canadian Press Staff Writer) ' -

DETROIT, April 3--Hot favor- ites for the Stanley Cup in this city of champions, Detroit Red Wings dropped only a minimum of prestige today when they hooked up in an exhibition warfare with

Detroit Olympics. Whenthe FY00" ticc session was over, in fact. 2,- 000 Detr: it fans figured two hoc- key titles would come here.

In their final serious workout for the classic National Lentil"! series, that opens here Sunday night against. Toronto Maple Leafs the Red Wings recorded an ofilc- ial 6-4 victory over the Olympics in a game that fostered gooddel- lowsliip instead oi heavy hitting. But the teams were shuffled ab- out so much that it was really a win for Olympics-

Donie Hughess boys, preparing for the International League fin- als against either Windsor 0r Buffalo, stepped along at such a pace that Donle grieved: “If only we had the Bulldogs or the Bisoni out there today." Jack Adams, boss of the Red Wings, was almost as enthusiastic.

Wings, generally favored to add a Stanley Cup triumph to their National Icague championship, skated fast and showed good tim- ing on passes and shots as they laid into an Olympic lineup that included goalie Normie Smith and Herb Lewis, Marty Bany and Larry Aurle, all of the N. H. L. team.

The chunky Smith, on the trad- ing block most of the season while Adams angled for Wilf Cude of Montreal Canadiens, provided the feature act of the practice B85510“ by hoidiiig Red Wings scoreless for a period and a half.

Then Normie relaxed and his mates piled in on hiir. for goals. He had a lead of 3-0 at one stage, but at the finish smillngly refus- ed to move for the hard ones. That's why the Red Wings won. That, and the fine passing of n forward trio borrowed for the occasion from the Olympics.

Gene Carrigan, Art Ciroux and Johnny Sheri did most of the damage, even though they were pitted against the ranking Red Wing line of Lewis, Barry and Aurle. Carrigan scored two and Cirouz and Sheri one each. For the occasion, the minor lcrtgurers behaved like major lcaguers.

Red Wings were pronounced ready for the Leafs in the first. of the five-game Stanley Cup series. The second game will be played in Detroit T esday and a third in Toronto, Thursday. should a fourth be necessary, It will be played in Toronto a week from tomorrow. The teams will move back to Detroit for the fifth game if the first four are divided.
