SPORTS. ING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, FRIDAY, JULY 16, 1937 World Trotting Record for Mile Seems Assured for Greyhound - “Greatest of ’Em All” May . 4 Achieve Goal in Race With Muscletone. BY GRANTLAND RICE. EW YORK, July 16.—It's a long line from Goldsmith Maid to Greyhound, but it runs straight through the historic track at Goshen, where Greyhound 1s stabled today in quest of a new mile record made on a half-mile track. For, in the long ago, Goldsmith Maid kicked off many a mile and won many & purse on the historic track. It was on this track, away back in 1865, that Goldsmith Maid won her first race. She was 8 years old then and the purse for the race was only 6100, but, by way of showing what a remarkable mare she was, the maid kept going for years, never won a purse of more than $5,000—and yet won, all told, $264,537. This is an amazing figure, considering the era in which she performed. For instance, it tops by approximately $15.000 the total amount won by Man 'O War ($249.465) in the lush and sport-mac 1920s. Goldsmith Maid was foaled at Deck- ertown, N. J, in 1857 and was sold by John Decker, who bred her, for $260. She was last sold to Henry N. Smith for $37.000 and died at Tren- | ton in 1885 at the age of 28. Bud Doble, a famous reinsman of the time, drove her in most of her engagements and followed her to her grave, A Sensation in 1859. TWELVE years before Goldsmith Maid hung up a record for the mile, Flora Temple, pulling a& high- wheeled sulky—just before that, trot- ters had ben raced under saddle—went the distance in 2:193;. That was in 1859 and it created a great stir. In- deed, horsemen of the day freely pre- dicted the mark never would be bet- tered. But, in 1867, Dexter got it down to 2:19 and then to 2:171;. Then, in 1871, Goldsmith Maid was clocked in 2:17, and, two years later, in 2:163,. This record was tied in California later that year by Occident, but, in 1874. Goldsmith Maid launched an assault on Occident’s record and lowered it, her new mark being 2:14. This record stood for five years and then was cracked by Rarus, which did the mile in 2:13!'5. Now came the great Maude S. and her rival, Julien. Between them—each smash- g the record in turn and sometimes only a few days apart—they got it down to 2:10!4. This was the time made by Maude S. on August 11, 1881. Jay Eye See put the mark at 2:10 in 1884 and was hailed as a wonder horse. But not for long, because Maude S. came thundering back to beat the record down to 2:093;, 2:09%4, and finally. in 1889, to 2:083;. That mark stood until 1891, when it was beaten by Sunol. The introduction of the bicycle sulky eent the records tumbling in the next few years. Down the years the great trotters came pounding—Nancy Hanks, The Abbot, Cresceus, Lou Dillon. Lou Dillon set the record at 1:58!; at Memphis in 1903 and there it stood for nine years, or until Uhlan reduced it to 1:58 at Lexington. For 10 years Uhlan was the undisputed king of the trotting horse world, but in 1922 Peter Manning whirled over a mile track in the dazzling time of 1:5634. The Greatest of All? 'HIS is the record at which Grey- hound, now warming up at Goshen will shoot later in the year, probably | after his match race with Muscletone, | the American-bred trotter now owned, or so it is believed. by Mussolini, | which is coming back here about the first of August to tie up with Grey. hound. That Greyhound will set a new mark is pretty certain. At least, that's what veteran trotting horsemen, who g0 away back to the days of Lou Dillon end beyond, believe. Almost without exception, they hold that this is the greatest trotter that ever lived. One of the exceptions is Walter Cox, who | has driven and trained trotters all| over the country for the last fifty years | or so and came to Goshen fifteen or | twenty years ago and settled down and has seen Greyhound in many of his races. “He's a great one” Cox said. “Greater, maybe, than Peter Manning, end I know something about Peter Manning. I ought to. I drove him often enough. But I'll go to my grave believing that Fire Glow was the greatest trotter I ever saw. I can't prove it—but there it is. I had Fire Glow, trained him and drove him my- self. He was beaten only twice, once clearly and once when we got all Jammed up and couldn't get head room out there. His record as a 2-year- old was 2:04, which he made in 1927 —and which only two 2-year-olds have lowered since then—Hanover's Bertha 1n 1929 and Lawrence Hanover in 1934, “But, one night after a race, Fire Glow fell ill. I worked over him all night—did everything I could for him. But he died.” Maybe Walter is right. Maybe Fire Glow was the greatest of all. But the majority vote is swinging toward Grey- hound, now 5 years old and keeping pace, year for year, with Peter Man- ning, which was 6 when he set the record.

If Federalsburg’s Athletics really have found their batting eyes, there’s going to be lots of woe in the Eastern 8hore League, for they've been doing well enough without breaking any hit- ting records.

Associated Press Sports Writer. OSHEN, N. Y, July 16— They're racing over the nis- toric half-mile track here on the fringe of the Ramapo Mountains, but a lanky gray horse, standing in his stall back of the 100- year-old oval, is the star attraction. The horse is Greyhound, fastest of American trotters and selected to carry the banner of the United States egainst Muscletone, pride of Italy, n the first international match race in the history of trotting. It rained yesterday, but that did not stop several hundred fans from parad- ing through Greyhound's barn to get a glimpse of the horse that won the 1935 Hambletonian and last year hung up a record of 1:57'4, only a half- second short of Peter Manning's in- ternational mark. Track Not Selected. THE Gray Streak, owned by E. J. Baker of St. Charles, Ill., origi- nally was scheduled for an assault on Uhlan's half-mile track record of 2:02%, but the water-soaked track forced a postponement until today. Nevertheless, Greyhound was out for his usual jog around the cinder train- ing tracks while disappointed fans lined the rail to watch trotting's great- est star, “Give him a decent track and he'll lower Uhlan's mark easily,” said Sep Palin, Indianapolis trainer of Grey- STEELE GENEROUS {Keeps Word to Be Fighting Champ, Offers Rivals Crack at Crown. BY DILLON GRAHAM, Associated Press Sports Writer. REDDIE STEELE, middleweight | boxing champion, looked back | today over the year since he won the crown and contended he'd kept his promise to be a fighting champion. | While many of the title holders in other weights have been inactive, Fred- | die has fought and won 13 engage- |ments, in three of which his title was at stake. “The middleweight division has more good scrappers perhaps now than it | has listed in many years”” he ob- | served. “And that suits me fine, for |it gives me a crack at all those good boys.” Offers All a Chance. | “IDAVE MILLER, my manager, and I are ready to give any and all | of these contenders a shot at the title. I'd like to have about 10 title fights during the next two years.”. Freddie outpointed Babe Risko in Seattle July 11, 1936, to become cham- (pion. He beat Risko in a return engagement, won from Gorilla Jones and knocked out Frankie Battaglia. These title defenses all were during the last six months. Steele said he considers Ken Overlin, | Billy Conn and Teddy Yarosz the out- standing challengers. Yarosz and Conn will fight in Pittsburgh next month and Steele hopes to take on the victor. Gives Away 12 Pounds. OUT at Griffith Farms, in nearby Mary?and, Freddie slammed three sparring partners about yesterday, training to meet Charles (Hobo) Wil- liams of Alexandria, Va., on July 20 ere. Not since he won the title has Freddie given away as much weight as hell concede Hobo. Williams, a rough, aggressive battler, will carry some 12 pounds’ advantage. Although Freddie's experience rates him at least a 10-to-1 favorite, Hobo has shown he can hit and can take punishment. He's never been knocked off his feet and has gone out of his division to tackle some of the East's better light heavyweights. AUTO RACERS SPURN LOW DALLAS PURSE Deny Attempt fo Dictate Terms, Call $17,500 for 300-Mile Race “Unreasonable.” By the Associated Press. NDIANAPOLIS, July 16—Several of the Nation's ace drivers, through H. C. (Cotton) Henning, said today they had withdrawn from a proposed 300-mile automobile race to have been held August 1 at Dallas, Tex., because the purse of $17,500 was “unreason- able.” T. E. Allen, secretary of the Ameri- can Automobile Association’s Contest Board, declared in announcing can- cellation of the race the drivers sought to “execute a dictatorship” in making prize demands. Replied Henning, manager of the Mike Boyle racing team: “Actually, the Cortest Board was in the position of dictating to us when it agreed to sanction a 300-mile race at the Pan- American Exposition for a purse of $17,500, less than a third of the prize money paid at the recent Vanderbilt Cup race, also 300 miles in length.” NEW MANLEY TROPHIES Cumberland Race Winner to Get Additional Prizes.

We'll be ready for Muscletone the day he steps off the boat.” Just where the match race will be held will not be decided until Givo Maiani of Milan, owner of Muscletons, arrives in this country with the Ital- ian colt about August 1. “It's up to Maiani to decide when and where the race will be held,” said Palin. “We're willing to meet him over either a half-mile or mile track. Natu- rally I would prefer a mile oval, but Muscletone has done most of his rac- ing over & half-mile course since leaving this country in 1934.” Palin said he already had received several bids for the race, including one of $20,000 from Chicago interests, who would stage the race at Washington | Park. The Indianapolis trainer natu- rally leans toward a Midwestern track, but several Eastern ovals are said to be considering making high offers for the event. Many would like to see it raced during Hambletonian week here, August 9-14, but that may be too soon for Muscletone to get into shape. Late in August or early September is a bet- ter guess. A return race will be staged in Italy, probebly in January. Wager Looks a Cinch. FTER making an assault on Uhlan's record, established in 1911, Greyhound will not race again until the Grand Circuit meeting late in August at Springfield, Ill. “The Springfield race should prove to be just a good tune-up for Grey- hound,” Palin said. “I'm confident Mr. Baker will have no trouble winning his $10,000 wager with Muscletone's owner. Greyhound should be a 2-to-5 shot in the betting, especially in view | of the fact that Muscletone did no bet- ter than 2:02 while racing in this country.” e D. C.
