For Old Rosebud was a trne son of the Blue Grass. ‘The time in which he won the fortieth renewal of the Kentucky Derby in 1914—2:03 2-5—still’ stands as the record for the classic, notwithstanding the sterfime thoroughhrds, including Sir Barton, Omar <hayyam, Regret and Morvich, that have gone the mile and a quarter to win the race in the eight years that have passed since the sturdy son of Uncle led tha field te the wire at Churchill Downs. His name has been a house- held word and the symbol of speed in Kentucky homes for years and Persons who never had witnessed a race spoke familiarly of “when Rosebud won the Derby: Old Rosebud was purchased from John E. Madden by Hamilton C. Applegate and Frank Weir for a trifling sum as a yearling in 1912. Before meeting with an accident in his early three-year-old form he was probabigi the speediest race horse this country has ever known, As a two-year-old he ran fiveeighths of a mile at Douglas Park in -58 2-5 with 15 pounds up. Writing of the death of the great racer, V. Sanders, turf writer and member of the staff of the Louis- ville Times relates the following in- cident in connection with a super- stition entertained by Mr. Weir that to permit the holder of the Der- by record to be photographed would bring bad luck to the splendid ani- mal. “Just after Old Rosebud had won ‘the Derby I was assigned by the managing editor of the Times to take GOLF WY BE NATIONAL GAME So Says Bert Way in Discuss- ing Future of Sports of Country. CLEVELAND, Ohio, June 9.—Golf, elthough still In the infant stags in this country, is destined to become the national pastime, according to W. H. (Bertie) Way, professional at the {May- field Golf club here. s “Baseball can't be beat as an:ienter- taining sport for the masses,” he said, “but when it comes to actualy person- al enjoyment in one’s own athieve- ments, there is no greater field) than golf.” ‘When asked why Cleveland cannot boast a player of national chimpion- sbip calibre, Way replied by: stating that fewer players practice golf in (eveland than in any city of tits size n the world. “They give: too much thowght to playing the gume and not enorgh time to, practice, which is the greatest as. set approaching perfection,” he said “To reach championship ability thay should play less, learn the correct fundamentals of the game andypractice incessantly.” » Tours Includ: *S PASSING the staff photographer to the Downs and. get a picture of the horse in ac- tion. Mr. Weir threw up both hands flatly refused me a picture of Old Losebud, saying, ‘It's the worst luck in the world. I shall never con- sent to your taking Oid Rosebud in any position. “T saw Colonel W. E. Applegate, father of the half-owner of Old Rosebud, and asked him to arrange it. He trie@ hard to get Mr. Weir to bring the horse out on the course but to no avail. Finally Colonel Applegzte told me that the colt was going to be worked the wrong way of the course the day before he was to be shipped east and if I could have the photographer there he thought there would be a chance to get his picture. We were on hand axa Old Rosebud was brought out and given a stiff breeze. The photo- graph was made, showing his won erful stride. “That afternoon he was’ taken to Belmont Park. In his first race there he practically broke down. Mr. Weir, when he heard that a nicture of the colt had been :nade before he lett Lontsville, attributed his mishap to that fect.” NEW YORK—There will be no Beo- ny LeonardJack Britton boxing con- test for the world’s welterweight cham. pionship June 23, Tex Rickard, pr>-| moter, announced.
