BELWONT STARES NEXT TURF EVENT Clyde Yan Dusea Will Not Race in the East This Year Louisville, Ky., May 20 (UP)—The eyes of the racing world turned to- day to the Belmont stakes as the next great test of the three-year- olds, Clyde Van Dusen, which splashed to a great victory in the Kentucky derby on Saturday, probably will not race in the east this year. Because he is a gelding, the H. P. Gardner horse will not be eligible for the Belmont. Instead, he is expected to start in the American classic at Chi- cago along with Panchio, which beat out Blue Larkspur for third money in the derby, Almost all the backers of Biue Larkspur had an alibi today for the failure of the favorite to come through the mud to victory. Col. E. R. Bradley, owner, apparently was convinced Blue Larkspur did not like the sloppy going. Most of the backers were inclined to agree that it the track had been dry, the fav- crate of the Bluegrass section would have come under the wire a winner. In that there was no attempt to take away any glory from Clyde Van Dusen nor from Pon McAtee, who gave the Gardner gelding the ide of a lifetime. There is no doubt in anyone's mind that Clyde Van Dusen has a stout heart for any race and he shows to especial ad- vantage in the mud, where his short, choppy stride gives him the footing necessary for a clean get-away and cnables him tb hold a winning pace. Naishapur, second in the derby, probably will be at the post in the Belmont as will Dr, Freeland, Preak- ness victor. Other likely three-year- olds who may settle many an argu- ment at the Belmont are Jack High, Twink and Blue Larkspur. 8o renowned was Clyde Van Dus- en's reputation as a mudder that be- fore post time Saturday he was sec- ond to Blue Larkspur in the bet- 1ing.

Miss Eleanor Price, 17 years old, a student at Hunter college and Jo- seph Carter, 60 years old, were killed. More than 60 persons were injured. The stampede occurred yesterday when 9,000 fans rushed from the south bleachers to escape a heavy rain which stopped the first game of a double header between the Yankees and the Boston Red Sox. The bleacher where the accident happened is behind right ficld and has been named Ruthville by the fans because it is into this stand that Babe Ruth usually hits his home runs, It is a favorite vagtage point for boys. When a light drizzle suddenly turned into a deluge in the Yan- kee's half of the fifth inning the fans in the right field bleacher rose as one person and crushed toward the southernmost exit. This exit leads down 14 steep steps to a passageway. Pile Up On Stafrway As the pressure of the crowding fans increased those first on Lhe stairs were toppled down and those behind fell on them. In a few sec- ond the stairway was a mass of | screaming, fighting, panic stricken humanity, while those in the rear, unaware of the crush in the stair- way, pressed forward to push others onto the human heap. & The crush was not stopped until police rushed into the stand and drove back the hundreds shoving to- ward the top of the stairs. Wire netting enclosing either side of the staitway gave way under the pressure of bodies and scores dropped from the pile to the ground beneath the stand and escaped 1n- jury. Girl At Bottom of Mass Miss Price and Carter were among those at the bottom of the mass. The girl's 14-year-old brother was be- side her but escaped serious injury. Police called reserves and am- aid stations in the players’ dressing rooms where ambulance surgeons attended the scores of injured, The injuries ranged from fractured skulls and broken bones and internal injuries to cuts and buises. Hundreds of persons had their clothing torn off in the jam. Po- lice gathered up bushels of hats, coats, and even shoes after tie passage hail been cleared.
