“A—14 = From the | Press Box Chowder Club Is Upset By Derby Trials By JOHN LARDNER, Bpecial Correspondent of The Star. NEW YORK, April 23.—The week- ly meeting of the Bimelech With Reservations Marching and Chowder Club now will come to order. As secretary in charge of rival Ken- tucky Derby hosses, I will proceed to deliver the week’s report: Brothers, there is a new threat to our peace of mind, by the name of Roman. This big bay colt from the barn of Joe Widener won in a lope at Keeneland last week end, churn- ing over 6 furlongs of muddy track in 1:13% to break into the big seven of the Derby field. He tri- umphed as he pleased, and the fu- ture bookmakers hastily hammered his price down from 30 to 1 to 8 to 1. That is one more thing to worry about. Another is the work of Sun Pharos, who was strictly you-take- him-I-don't-want-him in the early betting, but changed all that by winning in the slop of Jamaica at a mile and 70 yards last week. Another worry is the Wheatley Stable’s Asp, Jjust beginning to look good, and still | another is Black Brummel, a Keene- | land winner who is big, fast and very dangerous. Pictor Pokes His Head Into Derby Picture To top 'em all, there is Pictor, the horse we advised you to watch three weeks ago. Pictor is the heir of Challedon, coming as he does from the dormitory of W. L. Brann, and last Saturday he proved that he[ shares Challedon's love for the deepest gumbo by making bums out of Andy K and Fenelon in something | like a fathom of pure Maryland | water mixed with the best grade of | Maryland goo. J The threats are piling up, fellows. | I will interrupt the meeting a mo- | ment while our vice president in| charge of worrying sends out for a pail of aspirin. I think theyll trust | us for one more pail. On the other hand, the cloud has 2 silver lining, for Bimelech, our | honorary president, is working well | and Col. Bradley seems to like him. | Bimelech and his partner, Bashful Duck, probably will race at Keene- | land Thursday, in the Blue Grass Stakes. And that should be the tipoff. We will hold our breath until | then. As soon as I have fimshedf this report, the vice president in charge of respiration will take over the baton and lead you in breath- holding exercises. SPORTS. Are Slated 1o Test Bimelech in Race Roman Is Rated Menace To Winter Favorite On Last Outing By the Associated Press. LEXINGTON, Ky., April 23 —The Duke of Wellington said the battle of Waterloo was won on the pleying field of Eton. Some hard-boots say the Kentucky Derby may be won in the Bluegrass Stakes here Thurs- day. The 1%-mile race, feature event on the closing day program of Keeneland'’s spring meeting, is shap- ing up as a titanic struggle, with Bimelech, the Derby winter book favorite, and six other Derby eligibles as possible starters. If “Big Tim” goes to the post it will be his first start as a 3-year-old. He was unbeaten as a juvenile. Roman Deemed Big Threat. One of his likely opponents in the Keeneland fixture is the colt more than one experienced observer in these parts believes will win the | May 4 classic at Churchill Downs— Joseph E. Widener’s Roman. | The crack son of Sir Gallahad III, which also sired Gallant Fox, Derby champion in 1930, has burst into the Derby picture as a serious contender by virtue of his victory last Saturday over two other Derby candidates—Ramases and Chatted— in a 6-furlong dash. Time: 1:13% on a muddy track. Listen to what Robert Bludau, former jockey who now rides Roman in morning workouts, has to say about the Widener colt. “He is a good horse. He has done everything we have asked him to| do and has done it easy. Why, he'll win the Derby sure.” Bred to Go Route, Roman has speed and can hustle in the mud, as witnessed Saturday, but can he stand up over the Derby’s mile-and-a-quarter distance? | Bludau was asked. ‘He is bred to go a route,” the| former jockey replied. “Isn't he by | Sir Gallahad III, who got many horses who could run over a route of ground? His dam, Buckup, also| got horses that could run and run| fast over a distance, too, so I see no reason why Roman can’t do it.” Other Derby nominees which may | go to the post in the $5.000 added Bluegrass are Black Brummel, Star | Chance, Bashful Duck, Ramases and Devil Red. | THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. €, TUESDAY, APRIL 23, 1940.

They evidently forgot Nathan is scheduled to box Buddy Baer next week in New York and if there was & chance of an un- orthodox ending tonight Mike Jacobs would arrange for Mann to be else- where. Everett’s gameness is unquestioned and he’ll give the fans a run for thejr money if Mann is willing, but he doesn’t figure to win. Box-office attractions are scarce in the ring game at the moment, especially in the heavyweight division, and the men behind the scenery are taking no risks with the available talent. Jacobs most certainly is protecting his own interests first, as the Na- tional Boxing Association will at- test, and the hinterlands can have whatever is left. But if there are to be any trials by fire, upsets and bloody battles where prospective targets for Joe Louis’ battering fists are involved, they’ll be in New York under Mr. Jacobs’ aegis, not here. Everett still is remembered here for his game stand gainst Bill Boyd which ended in a t.k.o. victory for the latter. Everett had the sailor- man on the run in the early stages of the bout, staggered him but couldn’t finish him, and Boyd came back and carved both of Buck’s eyes with a savage, two-fisted attack that rendered the old war horse hors de combat. Another such exhibition tonight would make it worth the fans' presence, winner, The supporting card includes Maynard Daniels vs. Gunboat Mil- ler and Sammy Magro vs. Gerard Delia in eight-rounders.

April 23—The best dog in the fourth annual show of the Hampton Roads Kennel Club yesterday was the Pekingese Rem- emham Derie of Orchard Hill, owned by Mrs. Richard Quigley. This dog is a newcomer to the country, having been imported just before the West- minster show. Towever, he has made a brilllant record since his arrival and now boasts of the rare tri-international champion title. Best American bred was the Pillicoc-owned standard poodle, ch. Pillicoc Revery. Although the entries were some- what off from last year, the total this year being 328 dogs in 380 entries, there was a larger and more enthusiastic “gate” which stayed until the very last minute to cheer for its favorite variety in the groups. Silver Spring Dog Places. A nice showing was made by ch.! Minquas Marko, a miniature | schnauzer bred by Marguerite Jones of Silver Spring, Md. This snappy little fellow placed fourth in the largest group of the show. Another group placer was the smooth dachshund, = Meander's Brainstorm, last remaining son of the outstanding stud,’ Cid Von Werderhavelstrand. This dog has been successively owned by three local fanciers, first the Meander Kennels, then the Jonedith Kennels | and now belongs to Charles Torrell | of Pikesville. In spite of his peri-| patetic life, he has managed to ac- cumulate a majortiy of the points to the title. His recent essay into group placement indicates that he will soon be among the champions. The Dalakay Kennels took best of breed with their St. Bernard puppy Highlend V. Bergdean O'Dalakay, which defeated his kennel mate, Lady Deane O'Dalakay, the winning bitch. In Great Danes, Mrs. E. P.

I mean to say, it | clouds your spectacles and raises hob with your vision. So let us straighten out the matter. Races at Keeneland Should Give Tips Mr. Winchell has been touting a horse named Fenelon, the property | of Will Woodward. Not so long ago, | Fenelon won a race, to the surprise | of everybody, but me and his trainer, Jim Fitzsimmons (we picked him). Mr. Winchell arose to gloat. This | was an ill-timed move, for no sooner had the gloat at my expense left Mr. Winchell's thorax than Fenelon ran a poor fourth to Pictor, Royal Mani and Andy K at Havre de Grace. It seems to me that if Walt and Fene- lon are in this thing together, they ought to get their signals straight. However, I do not say that Mr. W. absolutely is wrong. The track was sloppy, and Fenelon, like Johns- town before him, hates the soup. Once they get him out of that mulligatawny and onto a dry track, he may do better. I hope so, because otherwise he is just wasting Mr. Winchell's- time, and Walt has no time to spare from his job of saving the world. This week, fellow Bimelech- rooters, let us keep our eyes on a race today at Keeneland (Black Brummel was likely to run again) and a Thursday race at the same track (Bimelech and Bashful Duck and others). These gallops will help to tell the tale. Our fate is in the balance, and so is our entire treasury ($15.75, not counting post- age stamps). %3 3> 20N, |Card Tonight CHEVY CHASE COMMERCIAL LEAGUE NIGH' SINGLES—7:15 P.M. 5 N.

Four Major Clubs May Get Pastor’s Blast at Boxing Gets Big Play; Angel and Galento Join in Musical Number By EDDIE BRIETZ, Associated Press Sports Writer. NEW YORK, April 23.—The major league ball season will start any day now. The barons figure the foul weather has cost them a cool half million to date. Some hot news soon may pop out of the N. C. A. A’s Chicago headquarters on the athletics mess in the “collitches.” South- ern California is fixing to invite Detroit, Cincinnati, Brooklyn and maybe Cleveland to train out there next spring. Bob Pastor’s blast on politics in boxing was headlined by the papers from coast to coast. Any time the ‘White Sox want to get rid of Bob Kennedy, rookie third sacker, all they have to do is call up Gabby Hartnett, Connie Mack or Frankie Frisch. One - minute interview. = Joe McCarthy was 53 Sunday. In- terviewed, he sald: “Yep, the first 52 years were the easiest.” It can happen here. W. P. A, workers shoveled snow off the courts so Walter Senior, Lawrence College tennis coach, and Morey Lewis, Canadian champ, could play an exhibition Sunday. The Pinkertons don't know if it's the weather or the way the favorites are behaving, but drunks have doubled at Jamaica since the mutuels came in. Whitey Ku- rowski, the Rochester ball player, to whom the sports writers always refer to as a veteran, was 22 the other day. Umpire Bill Klem tunes up his adenoids each spring by going into the woods and calling balls and strikes on the squirrels. Bob Ingalls will play center for Michigan this fall wearing spectacles.

DETROIT, April 23 —Precedents on both sides of the scoring ledger are -being shattered in the current| American Bowling Congress tourna- ment. The 62-day pin marathon, enter- ing the final two weeks, has pro- duced scores generally lower than those posted in other recent tourna- ments, yet perfect-game records have come crashing down. Yesterday Angelo (Mike) Domen- ico, 27-year-old steel worker of Can- ton, Ohio, threaded 12 strikes for the eighth perfect game in the his- tory of the classic. % 1t marked the first time that two 300 games had been registered in one A.

LEXINGTON, Va., April 23— George Washington's nine matched heavy artillery with Virginia Mili- tary Institute today after blast- ing Washington and Lee with a late barrage of bingles for a 7-3 victory yesterday in the first of a two- game trip. Jack Redinger or Lefty Kushman were to pitch for the Colonials. Frank McGinnis, a weighty right- hander, and Relief Pitcher Toby | Bright teamed up in spiking Wash- |ington and Lee’s guns, limiting the Generals to five hits—all off Mc- Ginnis. Bright, coming into the game at the start of the eighth, fanned four. Telling blow of the battle was | key, whose lusty two-base smash scored Lee Lusby and Wes Taylor |in the eighth.

He is Clyde Shugart, one of a dozen of the Tribesmen now em- ployed in Washington, who signed his 1940 contract yesterday. Shugart, a star for Jowa State, failed to im- press at training camp, but once given a chance in league games proved his mettle upon every occa- sion. He finished the '39 season weighng around 210, but reports having put on about 10 additional pounds, which won’t do him any harm as a National League lines- man.
