Uncle Harry Talks About
CteatProbIem ofNerO York City

build a bridge over the Hudson
river.
Great. high business buildings.
one OF them more than fifty stories
high. provide office and factory
space for thousands and thousands
OF people and thousands Of eusi-
nesses. The streets are filled with
buses and automobiles and the side
walks are crowded with pedestrians
a good part Of the time.
''It seems as IL people are drawn
70 New York City as a magnet draws
pieces OF steel. II has been esti-
mated that by 1850 the population
OF New York City proper will be ten
million and that including the met
ropolitan district, the population
will reach 2O.0OO.Oo0i
400 Feet Below the Streets.
Transportation engineers and ex-
perts must study these problems and
look ahead. The other day while /
was In New York. read very in
teresting report made by one OF
these engineers who has n plan for
an entire new system OF subway
trains. His suggestion Is that his
new system be constructed 400 feet
below the level OF the street. IT
this depth the tracks could be laid
in straight lines. because they will
be below the foundation OF any Of
the buildings and all the sewer and
water pipes and telephone and cleo
trio wires and the trains will be able
10 travel at sixty miles an hourl
Elevators would carry the people
from the sidewalks down TO the sub
way stations and bring them up TO
the surface again. And the present
subways will probably be remod-
eled and used for vehicles and pc
destrians."

A rumor of this was heard at the
Pennsylvania relay games last week.
but it was generally believed that
some way would be found to get men,
bers of the squad away for the two
days. However. today this telegram
from Coach Lannigan confirmed the
report:
owing to the centennial at the uni
versity, examinations have been
moved up two weeks. Therefore it
will be impossible for Virginia to
send entries to south Atlantic inter-
colIegiates at Georgetown"

Virginia's absence will detract con-
siderably from the games. 1t was
generally thought that the Charlottes-
vile school had the best chance to
capture the team trophy, and one or
two Of it's athletes were expected to
do brilliant work. possibly shatter
records. The Charlottesville school
won the meet last spring. and for
years has been predominant in the
south Atlantic section in outdoor

So far as these New Workers were
concerned there was one outstanding
favorite, Harry Payne Whitney's
xTryster. but as all had a keen recol-
lection that since 1915--when the f1lly
Regret came through over fast
track-not favorite has won. there
was wholesome respect expressed for
the chances of several of the rivals
7. which the son of Peter Pan will have
tto beat.
First Run In 1875.
The first Kentucky derby was run
at Churchill Downs in 1875. Aristides
took the event, and the stake netted
his owner s2.S00. That was rich
purse for those days In 1883 there
was that famous duel between Proc
tor Knott and Spokane in the derby
Jones won the derby last year the
victory was worth $30.375.
Tomorrows stake will be the rich
est in the history of the American
turf. More than $4,000 Will go to
the winner; the owner Of the second
horse will receive $4,000: $4,000 will
go to the owner of the third horse,
anu the man who owns the fourth
horse to finish will be the richer by
$4,000. If the purse for this event
goes on increasing in like ratio what
will the figures be ten years from
now?
Slow Track Not UnusuaI.
OF course. a great deal of the con-
versation on the train referred to had
to do with the condition Of the track.
Derby history records many fast
tracks. but in the past three runnings
tAe course has not been satisfactory.
In 1918 Exterminator waded through
mud to win. In 1919 Sir Barton won
through heavy going. and last year
Paul Jones was victorious on a slow
track. So. If the weather man has
any sense Of justice at all he will pro-,
vide a track as fast as that over which
Omar Khayyam sped to victory in
As17.
Favorites Seldom Score.
In the past ten years three favorites
have scored. Worth. a heavy favorite,
won in 1912. and Old Rosebud, an
odds-on steed. copped in 1914. The
first favorite came through on a mud
dy track. the second on a fast course.
Regret. the 1915 winner, mild IA
vorite, had fast conditions. So, it can
hardly be said that track conditions
have played much of a part in affect
ing the outcome of the Kentucky
classic.
II is interesting to note that win
ming favorites came close together in
1912. 1914 and 1915. But 19f3 proved
q big exception. the race going to
Donerail. who was an outsider to the
extent Of something like 30 to 1. Ex-
terminator was another outside win
ner, 1918. He returned 80 to 1. Sir
Barton's victory in 1919 was not ex-
pected and Paul Jones, who won last
. year, was an outsider.
