it's first glimpse Of Red Grange on
Saturday in the Pennsylvania

as though Red Is going to get

The contest furnishes chance for
a big upset of dope, and although

choice of all critics to win, 1t would
not give us any great shock to see

How they do speed! Bob Nc
Donogh need not feel so bad
about missing the 250-mile
worlds record for autos by $500
of a second just week ago to-
day at Laurel Speedway. Satur-
day Pete DePaOlo, according to
press reports, shattered the old
record of Milton by flashing
around the Salem IN. H. oval at
an average speed of 1873 miles
an hour.
just what is the limit on this
speed game?
1IMLICO race track opens
r today. 1t probably is the
lucky Maryland course.
The weather this fall has been
terrible on the thoroughbred sport.
Not satisfied with rain the
weather man has dished out snow.
October has been a stormy month
in all sections and racing has
suffered by it.
The good crowds which have
turned out in spite Of the incle-
ment weather is fine indication
Of the hold the sport has on the
public.
~ 1t is about time for the sun
to shine and the tracks to dry
out. The mudders have had too
much opportunity. Everyone
would like to see a little cloud of
dust on the back stretch.
1t looks as though Iowa and
Michigan are the best i'm the
middle-west, with the WONer-
ines, of course, considered the
real leaders. They may be the
best in the country. Iowa and
Michigan do not meet. AS is
often the case, the very teams
everyone wants to see clash in
the Big Ten are busy with other
opponents.
