MAN O. WAR PROGENY HEADED
FOR KENTUCKY DERBY CLASSIC

LOUISVILLE, Ky, March IL (P).-
Man o. War, quietly munching his oats
on farm in the blue grass region of
kentucky, is little concerned with the
approaching Kentucky derby. Denied

that holds even truer among equines

discussion turns to the derby there is
sure to be mention of the get of Man

Just as Crusader, champion three
year-old of 1926, kept his sire in the
limelight, another son of this sire was
taking down high honors among the
juveniles. Scapa Flow, a phenomen-
al youngster from the time he stepped
on the turf climaxed his two-year old
efforts by winning the most coveted
event, the futurity at Belmont park.
Scapa Flow is being pointed especially
for the derby and reports from the
east are that he is going about his
work in a pleasing manner.
