F: ACROSS THE BOARD TODAY

D.. ............ ..........' .''''e
Another good Saturday. When Sara
zen decides to run there is nothing to
it--and that gelding stepped out high
wide and handsome for our money in
the Bowie feature. There was nothing
short about the odds. The prices for
the So mutuel tickets were $50 to
win. $3.50 to place and So to show.
Bubbling Over was second In the Lex
ington feature at short odds7-S2.60 to
place and $3.50 to show. We had S25
across the board on each horse and
S25 win, place and show parlay.
Robert Maxwell equaled the track
record when ne won the fourth at Lex
ingtOn and paid 5000, s4.7O and
1870. We had $40 across on him.
Iidwestern was third and Massillon was
scratched. Sister Josella was out of
the money.
At Bowie we were knocking at the
door on two parIays. but could get only
one horse over in each. The Wilson
entry won the second at odds of to L.
but Lieutenant III was fourth. Maximae
was second and paid SI4.4O and $1,000
but Kanduit failed us. We made enough
money, anyway.
On Saturday we had total OF $500
invested. We got back s746.1O. which
made a net profit of S356.1O. When
that is added to the bankroll it brings
it up to $1.6OO.3O.
The only track in operation today is
Bowie and the races look plenty tough.
We will go easy. VIE has been dis
appointment in recent starts, but this
may be the day and Wen try that filly
So across in the first There is no rea-
SON why Care Free should not win in
the second. He's never out Of the
money. Nevertheless, we'll take SIS
worth across the board on TEN SIXTY.
In the third GAMBLE gets the Same
sort Of play.
KING SOLOMAN'S SEAL in the fifth
and SANDRAE in the sixth. each will be
played SIS across and also combined in a
parlay, SIS win, place and show. That's
plenty for today. We don't feel so
lucky, but that's Just when Old Dame
Fortune smiles sometimes.
WELL, folks, take your hats
IWI off to Michigan. They're
III the best in the West, and
if it wasn't covering so much
ground we might include East,
South and North. If there is
any better line in the United
States we'd like to see it.
The Wolverine forwards have
never been scored on. The way
they stopped that Minnesota smash
ing attack was revelation.
Which one would you like" if
Dartmouth and Michigan clashed?

Steve Brodie once took
chance. Indiana and Purdue,
however, were so careful on the
gridirOn Saturday, that neither
one scored. 1t was a safety first
battle, each trying hard to keep
away from any bad BREAKS"
and each succeeded-if nothing
to nothing game can be called q
success for anyone.
We always knew that Red
Grange was a bear in this foot
ball game. 1t is fitting that he
should join the Chicago Bears for
his pro debut.
What we want to know is
where all those Purdue forward
passes were when the Boiler
makers played Indiana? The
Lafayette eleven tried only three
the entire game. If that was
strategy then Babe Ruth never
Should try to hit a home run.
r. 1APTA1N BROWN of Michi-
gan, one Of the greatest
centers in the country has
played his last college game.
Three stalwart tackles who re-
fused to bulge also are through
at Ann Arbor. Hawkins devel-
opement this year was a Big Ten
sensation, while Edwards and
Babcock, two other tackles, were
hard to beat.
Well, one can't expect a stone
wall every season. Molenda and
Friedman may find out how much
the missing men aided them when
next season rolls around.
Flanagan of NOtre Dame is
the leading scorer of the. Middle
West. He counted one of the
touchdowns against Northwest
ern on Saturday and brought his
total points to 81. He has another
game to boost his total, but may
find considerable difficulty in an
nexing any more points at
Nebraska on Thanksgiving day.
7HESS accounts stated that
Coach Spears Of Minnesota
slowed down the shift and
the Gophers were never penalized
or being in motion. Michigan also
slowed down the Swedes and the
motion of Spears team was never
