NEW YORK, Nov. 2.-Earl Sande's intimate knowledge of the moods and whims and racing ability of My Own will serve as an advantage to Zev when the prize 3-year-olds meet in the Latonia championship on Satur- day, race track enthusiasts declared today.

 Sande, however, declines to predict the winner of the race. My Own is a great horse," he says, especially when running far, but I feel that Zev is better. He is faster over shorter courses. How long he can stay faster will be shown Saturday at Latonia,"

 Fred Blanton, chief clerk ordnance plant, No. 2, Muscle Shoals, was also put on the stand by the prosecution. He stated at that time few men were being employed at the plants and those were by the civil service board under government rules and regula- tions
 The defense attempted to show that both Porter and Bauer were taking the applications with the pur- pose of showing them to the various plant superintendents with the view of increased operations that they had the available men as listed on their roster.
