In spite of a casualty list that makes Wrigley Field resemble a base hos- pital, the Cubs are travelling at the fastest pace in the National League, have climbed from sixth place to a tie for third in the last week, and are showing no signs of letting up.

Their surge wound up in third place ‘Thursday when rain cut their tilt with the Phillies to five innings, with the Cubs winning 1-0 for their sixth Straight triumph.

Prospects for the Bismarck squad were described as good, although since no district meets were held in the state last year there was little in that line on which to base compari- sons. Thus far the Bismarck squad |@- has seen action only in an interclass meet a wetk sg0 and in a triangular meet with St. ‘Mary's and Mandan high schools last Saturday. ‘There was little in either of these meets that would give a true indica- tion of what the Bismarck cinder men might be able to do under fire, coaches felt.

IT'S HOURS TILL SUPPERS By Williams DON'T YOU y HARDBOOTS CROWD INTO LOUISVILLE POR TURF CLASSI Stake Will Be Richest Posted p Since Days of Reigh Count and Gallant Fox Louisville, Ky., May 7.—(#)—While thousands of turf followers from ‘all parts of America mingled with the “hardboots” of old Kentucky Friday on gaily decorated streets, where only @ few, months ago flood water stood several feet deep, nearly a score of the nation’s equine royalty awaited the coronation of the Kentucky Der- by winner as king of the three-year olds, Around 4:45 p. m. (Central Stand- ard Time) Saturday Starter Bill Hamilton will release: the basriers, yell “come on” and the 68rd running of the country’s most famous horse race will be underway to the accom- paniment of the cheers of 65,000 spectators. To Collect $50,000 A little more than two minutes later, at the end of the mile and a quarter whirl, the winner will have 8 horseshoe of roses draped around his neck, the fortunate owner will collect upwards of $50,000 and the backers of the victorious horse will rush to the mutuel windows to collect on their investment. The historic race marks the return of the Derby to all the glamour and much of the prosperity it enjoyed in pre-depression years. The value of the race has been restored to $50,000 after being twice sliced in depression years, to $30,000. More than $1,500,- 000 may pass through the mutuel windows for the greatest play since the days of Reigh Count and Gallant Fox. Two Horses Favored The consensus of the experts is that the winner will come from either Mrs, Ethel V. Mars’ Milky Way stable or Samuel Riddle’s Barn, with the latter sending out the favorite in the diminutive War Admiral, a son of Man O’War. He is expected to go to the post at odds close to 9 to 5. In meeting Mrs. Mars’ Reaping Re- ward and Military, however, War Ad- miral will be asked to match strides with one horse seasoned by winter racing and another that showed his class as a two-year-old. ‘There should be plenty of support for Dellor, the Wheatley stable’s Melodist, Heelfly from the Waggoner brothers’ Texas-owned Three D's stable, Maxwell Howard’s Sceneshif- ter, ace of the pair trained by Earl Sande, and J. H. Louchheim’s Pom- Poon, the erstwhile favorite. Sports Round-Up By EDDIE BRIETZ New York, May 7.—()—Looks like @ large week-end, mates. .. . Friday: Gashouse Gang invades Polo Grounds, .. .
