lf 1 | Nominations Set For 2nd Running Of Key West Derby At Kennel Club Key West Kennel Club. Results Slick Miss, Yardley Pay $140.60 In Daily Double Nominations for the sec- ond running of the Key West Derby were released this morning by Racing Secre- tary L, L. Griffin. The Derby is set for the closing night at the track on April 8. The cream of the talent at the Key West Kennel Club, was skimmed off the top in| making up the ‘race field. | Dogs nominated include Glen Page, Gay Skipper, Irene Hill, Wheat, Doll, Texas Speed, Wise Mike, Longiene, Speed In Review, Ingrid, Mohamme- dan, Meadow Craft, Sir Mc- Kay, R. O. ’S Moonbeam and Midnight Caper. The race will be run over the 3-8 mile standard derby course. These dogs will be matched in a pair of elimination races Friday and Saturday with the top four dogs in each race to be entered in the derby. The last four dogs in each race will be entered in the Consolation Derby, Wednesday, April 7, Every dog in these derby trials has gone out and shown that they can really run the derby course, Ingrid equalled Avenger’s record last Saturday night, a re- cord that has stood for two sea- sons. And if anything had been close to her, she might have set a new track record for the 38 mile distance. Practically every dog in the der- by trials has, at one time or an- other, won a 3-8 mile race this season so these races should be very hotly contested. At the present time, Ingrid, Ire- ne Hill, Glen Page, Gay Skipper, and Meadow Craft, loom as the favorites. In -tonight’s feature action, the Ward’s. Court Cup Race, Overseas Kennel’s Legal Looter will go out in an attempt to maintain a win streak he started last week: when he outran virtually the same field he'll face tonight. Among his chief competitors will be Sam Baxendale’s Black Ceaser, and Jesse William’s Toggle Switch, both of whom have performed im- pressively in earlier action. Other entries in the feature, sponsored by Ward and Rosalyn Tyson, include Manuel Foster’s Di- Wednesday, March 31, 1954 Judy | THE KEY WEST CITIZEN FIRST RACE Winner—F, B.

Some British experts had margin as wide as 8-2 in rounds, For four rounds, LaStarza looked as though he intended to do a workmanlike job on Cockell. But the Britisher caught wise in the fifth, became the aggressor and broke up LaStarza’s counterpunch- ing, “Rollie never really hurt me,” said the dumpy victor.: “It was nice to win.” A very close-mouthed lad, His manager, John Simpson, said there have been no definite offers to fight Marciano. “If I get an offer and it’s good enough I'll take it,” he said. “If nothing else comes along, we'll probably fight Harry Matthews in Seattle again.” EXHIBITION BASEBALL By The Associated Press Tuesday's Results Pittsburgh 3, Boston 0 Chicago (N) 3, Baltimore 1 Cleveland 2, New York (N) 1 Philadelphia (N) 7, New York (A) 3 Milwaukee 27, Savannah (SAL) 0 San Antonio (TL) 12, Cincinnati “RB” 3 New York (A) MB 10,286 Cockell Outpoints LaStarza, Title Fight Cockell was warned four times LONDON #—Don Cockell, Bri-| about low blows, and LaStarza and a/his manager, Jimmy De Angelo, was the man | both said the Ameriean would have been disqualified if it had been the other way around. “To tell the truth,” said La- |Starza ruefully, “I was expecting this. I was told before I came that I'd have to win by a knockout. I was slow starting and fought a bad fight. But I think I won.” Try for a knockdown Rollie did— and desperately in the 10th and final round, It was a real melee with LaStarza striving desperately to connect. But he had neither the power nor the aim. When it ended, he was working so hard he didn’t even hear the bell and Referee Gene Henderson had to get him in a headlock and drag him to his corner, LaStarza weighed 189% to ¢ock- ell’s 211. The vietory was Cockell’s 57th against 10 losses while for LaStarza it was his fifth defeat against 54 triumphs. 10,000 MILE Guaranty on USED CARS ; with oy Carlife .
