s, o wromh . v SUs WASRIONE NG ARL M e emrwen | woms es’ Poussin, Margaret Sanderson Astride, Retires Riding and Hunt Club Plate L3 Earns Close Verdict With Muddy River, Locket Trailing Young Rider Keeps Slate Clean for Women in - Her Third Victory -- --- By ROBERT HENRY. Poussin, owned and cleverly rid- den by 17-year-old Margaret San- derson, retired the Riding and Hunt Club Plate for her pretty owner by winning that feature for the third time in four years at the Potomac Hunt hunter trials at Great Elm Farm near Travillah, Md., yesterday. Moving smoothly around the 1%- mile, 9-jump course in an annoying drizzle which made the small gath- ering miserable and the competitors muddy, the veteran gray mare earned a close decision over Lt. Col. ‘William M. Grimes' Muddy River and Taylor Chewing, jr.’s, Locket. In winning, Poussin, recent victor in the Dunboyne Challenge Plate at the hunt's point-to-point meet, re- peated her success of 1937 and 1938 and also kept clean the record for feminine riders in this event. Be- sides Miss Sanderson’s triple, the class has been won by Robin Riddick, who rode Cheyenna home first last vear, and by Mrs. C. B. Lyman, who won with My Lassie in 1936, the year the trophy was donated by former Secretary of State Henry L. Stim- soh. Mrs. Harry H. Semmes pre- sented the trophy to Miss Sanderson. Form Prevails Despite Weather. Although staged under adverse conditions, competition was unusu- ally formful. Only two riders suf- fered spills and refusals were rare. Miss Riddick took a fall with Dr. Robert Moran’s Me-Tom in the Chevy Chase Plate and Nancy Hanna toppled from Gone Away in the Montgomery County Plate. Neither was injured. : Several 1939 winners again were successful. Elaine McDowell, who scored with her own mare, Gny Melody, in the Junior Hunt Plate | last year, repeated in that class, re-| stricted to riders under 18 years of | age, when she rode George T. Wa]k< er’s Metope to victory over Poussin and seven others. Last year’s Mont- gomery County Plate winners, Sea- gram, owned and ridden by Mrs. Ernest L. Smith, and Locket, owned and ridden by Chewning. made it two straight in that class for pairs. The only difference in yesterday's re- sult was in the rider of Locket, Mrs. Lock Shumaker having that mount & year ago. Muddy River Wins Master’s Plate. Showing the same determination | that won the larkers' point-to-| point race two weeks ago, Muddy‘ River, ridden by Lt. Col. Grimes, beat 12 others to win the Master's Plate. His rider last year took sec- ond with Miss Blue Ridge. Recall, owned and ridden by Charles Car- rico, and one of the few show- ring hunters competing, was second and might have won except for popping over the in-and-out ob- stacle which caused trouble for many. 1 After this victory Lt. Col. Grimes came right back to help Mrs. Mar- shall Exnicios and Ray Glacker take honors in the Potomac Plate for hunt teams of three. The winning horses were Miss Blue Ridge, Shift- less and Life Boat. Full hunting attire was required in this class and counted 15 per cent. Although Miss Sanderson was not entirely satisfied with the perform- ance of Poussin in the feature, the judge:. Maj. Henry Leonard, Wil- bur Hubbard and William H. Lips- comb, were. It did require several minutes, however, before they called the results as Muddy River and Locket also had clever rounds. Headrock, handled by young Mercer Fadeley, also was under considera- tion until one of the judges de- cided the mare was not “hunting sound,” even though the other two officials insisted that she had been hunted all winter without a trace of trouble. Lt. Col. Whittaker Shines on Mike. A first-class job of announcing was turned in by Lt. Col. Frank Whittaker, who passed along newsp facts about the participants. He tried, too, to keep the drenched spectators happy with cheerful chat- ter. Junior Hunt Plate—Won by Metope, owne °Fy Bitorae T, Walker. idden by Elaine McDowell: second.

'Myrmidon Outlasts 'Comonhome, Lands Grand National Dontara Finish& Third In Maryland ‘Point’ Race on Wet Course By the Associated Press. HEREFORD, Md., April 20.—Out- sloshing nine other thoroughbred hunters, Myrmidon, ridden by Hugh O'Donovan, captured the Grand National point-to-point race today, edging out J. W. Y. Martin’s Comon- home in a hard last stretch drive. Myrmidon, owned by John H. O'Donovan, closed up with Comon- home at the three-quarters stage on the 4-mile, rain soaked course. They took the 21st and last jump to- gether, but Comonhome, ridden by John Bosley, was tiring too fast. Dontara, Benjamin H. Griswold, 3d, astride, finished third, 15 lengths behind. Two entries, Priction and Golden Satin, went down on the treacherous footing. Blockade, the favorite, with J. P. | Colwell up, took the lead until the halfway mark, but fell back to finish sixth. Clifton’s Gem in Front. Dion Kerr rode Clifton's Gem, Middleburg, Va., entry, to victory In the Fox Hunters’ Challenge Cup, second race of the afternoon. The race, 4% miles, was run over fields, streams and part of the Grand National Course. Second and third places were taken by two brothers, David McIntosh on Du- dillerich, and Rieman McIntosh on Generalissimo. Hugh O'Donovan, Grand National winner, riding Tooled Steel, came a cropper at the first fence, re- mounted, but fell again at the last fence. Remounting again, he finished the race. Todd Much Improved In Keeping Kansas Decathlon Title By the Associated Press. LAWRENCE, Kans, April 20— Lee Todd, who gave up a job teach- ing school in Nebraska to prepare for a possible Olympic berth, won the Kansas decathlon championship for the second straight year today. He collected 6,730 points with vic- tories in the 100 and 400 meter races and the javelin. Last year 6,557 points won the crown for Todd, who now is a grad- uate student at Colorado. Despite his improvement the ex-school teacher was almost 1,000 points off the record established in 1936 by Glenn Morris, a Colorado motor car salesman who went on to Olympic les | victories.

PHILADELPHIA, April 20—H.| Jamison Swarts beamed like a high | July sun through rain that washed out a whole week end sports sched- | ule here. Swarts’ disregard for the | celestial gloom was occasioned by | thefact that as director of the Uni- | foresees in the 46th renewal of the | meet next Friday and Saturday “the | greatest record-breaking possibili- | ties in years.” In the directors’ hands are some | 3,000 entries reoresenting athletes from 500 colleges and prep schools | throughout the United States. Fenske fo Attack Record. Number 1 record prospect is be- spectacled Chuck Fenske of Wis- consin, who will make his first out- door appearance in Franklin PField after nine successive indoor tri- | umphs. Rating Fenske as “un- | doubtedly the world's greatest | miler,” Swarts quoted the Wisconsin ace as saying he is in “good condi- tion” and readying himself to go after the record of 4:118 held by Glenn Cunningham, the Kansas veteran. Opposing Fenske in the special | mile race Saturday will be Gene | Venzke, currently mixing a cam- paign for a seat in the Pennsyl- vania House of Representatives with his training, and Walter Mehl, West- ern Conference mile champion. In two other individual perform- | ers, Swarts sees three records going hy the boards. Al Blozis, the George- town weight ace, tossed the shot last week well over the Penn record of 52 feet 91, inches. He's expected to repeat here and also move up the discus mark, now 163 feet 4 inches. The other individual is Welby Wil- liams, the new North Texas Teacher | star, who has tied the Penn record of 96 in the 100-yard dash twice so far this season. Great Mile Relay Field. “Seldom has the mile relay field | been so extensive,” Swarts declared pointing to quartets from the North Texas Teachers, New York Univer- sity, Pittsburgh, Maryland, George- town—which set the Penn record of 3:148 a vear ago—Ohio State, Man- hattan, Fordham and others. In Texas and New York U. ob- servers see the biggest threat to Pittsburgh's relay supermacy. The N. Y. U. quartet broke the world 440 indoor record last season on the lightning fast Dartmouth track, while the Texans were only 9-10 second off the Penn record in an earlier appearance this season. University of Texas holds the 440 mark with 41.1 set in 1936 and Pitts- burgh the 880 title with 1:259 set last year. Pittsburgh's chances of scoring its fifth Penn triumph are lessened by the absence of Long John Wood- ruff, the Negro star, from this year's squad. Hoya Skippers Leave Penn State, 6. W. Boafs in Wake A two-boat team of Georgetown University skippers yesterday after- noon won a tri-college regatta sailed on the rain-swept Potomac River, totaling 29 points. Penn State was second with 14 points, coming from a poor third position when a second local club, George Washington, fouled a Penn State boat in the final race of three. Tom Ross was top scorer, taking a first and two seconds for the Hoyas. Walter Lawson, second Georgetown skipper, took a second and a first. Herbert Lindsay was high point scorer for the Colonials, who scored 13 points. The races were sailed in a light northeasterly at the mouth of the Anacostia River. Would Make Farewell Drake Relays Best Ever Staged By the Associated Press. DES MOINES, Iowa. April 20— It's quite a track party Pranklin (Pitch) Johnson is arranging for his final Drake relays presentation. The relays director, who will be- come the Stanford coach next fall, wants the 31st annual carnival next Friday and Saturday to be strictly as advertised, “bigger and better than ever.” From all indications, Johnson's last production will be just that. The cast will include many of America’s greatest track and field names, and Johnson expects the combined entry list of university, college and high school athletes to crowd the 2,500 mark. For the first time in 12 years all of the 10 Western Conference schools will be represented. Summaries of Kansas Relays 2 hurdles—Wor b3 enns second.

It was the first Princeton victory over Navy on home waters since Heinie Leh's great crew did the won on the Severn in 1934. Navy gained an even break for the day by edging out the Tigers varsity race. Princeton’s varsity was timed in 10 minutes, 474 seconds against Navy's 10:542. The Jayvee times were 11:112 and 11:118.

U. Banquet Cards Plan Big Program For Athletic Party " Scheduled May 1 Reaching less than a half dozen miles from its own campus, Catholic University dipped into nearby Col- lege Park last night and plucked Dr. H. C. (Curley) Byrd, president of the University of Maryland, for its principal speaker at its seventh annual athletic dinner on May 1. Dr. Byrd's selection was an- nounced by James M. Maguire, chairman of the alumni committee, who said that several other well- known personages would speak at the affair. - Because the dinner will mark the official close of C. U.s golden Jjubilee celebration and because of the athletic successes it will be able to observe since the last dinner in 1939, this year's program is the most ambitious yet attempted. Cardinal teams, with the exception of the basket ball squad, did much to make the jubilee year a real celebration. In football, C. U. not only won eight out of nine games, but cli- maxed the season by earning a bid to the Sun Bowl where its eleven played a scoreless tie with Arizona State Teachers. National statistics revealed it as one of the five highest scoring teams in the country. Track also was a spectacular suc- cess with Coach Dorsey Griffith's thinclads experiencing their first undefeated season in dual meets and capturing the Mason-Dixon Conference championship. This winter’s indoor games also were the best ever held at Brookland, with such outstanding stars as Glenn Cunningham, Gene Venzke and Archie Sam Romani partici- pating. Boxing duplicated the success of track with Eddie La Fond's mittmen winning five straight matches, in- cluding those with Maryland and Columbus. Gerry Strang, C. U.'s only entrant in the national tourna- ment, failed to win, but reached the final of his class. Riggs Gains Net Final In River Oaks Meet B the Associated Press.
