zx*k got all “fouled” up last night in Homestead when the South Dade Rebels . edged them 57-50 to take undisput- ed possession of the Gold Coast Conference lead. The Rebels gained the victory largely because the rough brand of basketball the Conchs displayed gave them 41 foul shots and they made good on 25 of them. Key West actually out- wored the home club from the field but their work from the foul line ‘supplied the clincher. . Even so, it was nip and tuck all the way with the Rebels commanding but a 18-11 lead at the end of the first quarter.

Range Twilight ran sec- ond to Comstock in two straight races and nearly managed to beat that favor- ite.

Walter Owen is the owner of the wigner, Modest Blond ran third. High Legion paid a nice 17.60 to win, 7.80 to place and 4.40 to show.

Some of the owners» may have a tough time explaining to the hired hands how much money they lost and how far attendance drooped. The athletes are quite hep to the fact that television con- tracts often run into six figures in the balance book. It’s no secret that a few clubs figure on the ae dough to meet the player pay- roll. So far the players are asking only for the World Series and All- Star TV cash. Some of these days the boys may start gunning for a cut of the daily TV take, just as the boxers demanded—and got— pees each Friday night from the HBC. | The painful aspects of pennant- winning always come to light jabout this time of year. When a lub wins, the players naturally ant more money. When they lose jthey don’t want to take a cut. Many a beautiful friendship be- tween player and club has eracked up on these rocky shoals. How would you like to have George Weiss’ job of signing the Yankees? Five straight pennants, five straight World Series—the greatest. Add to that the compli- cation of the stadium sale last month. The ballflayers read all about it in the papers, how Del Webb and Dan Topping sold for hed million dollars something they jbought for $2,800,000 a few years back and still own the ball club, pe, Rocket Jet Gene Huff NINTH RACE — 5.16 mile Grade 1 Range Twilight Wilshire Flakes of Fire | Timber Range Easy Whiri Short Bid Irene Hill Glen Page TENTH RACE — 348 mile (Grade $ | South Boston | | } } Breezemont | Painter Pete, | Red Carpet | Miss Guy | Canunculis Poincians Lustre Gal $$ $5 SAVE $553 For QUALITY USED CARS and General Auto Repairs TWINS GARAGE |1190 DUVAL ST.
