Dog Derby Won
By Sank Centre
Edward Guishard of This City
Victor in District Race at St.
Cloud Tuesday

Two mud-spattered boy mushers
drove their dogs to victory
through the slush and water of the
three-block course on Eighth ave-
nue. south, Washington's birthday
in a field of seven contestants in
st. Clouds first annual American
Legion dog derby, says Wednesday
evenings St. Cloud Times.
The winners were Edward Guis-
hard of Sank Centre, who won the
silver cup in the heavy dog class
with "Rex," and Roman Rehkamp,
Melrose, who pushed, hauled and
entreated his "Towser" to victory
in the light dog class. More than
1000 people watched the derby.
The boys were presented with sill
yer loving cups at an American
Legion banquet held at the Grand
Central hotel Tuesday night.
Second prize winners were Mark
Haines of Paynesville with cray"
and Marcus Kyle, of Cold Spring,
with "Fido."
Seven well-trained dogs were
brought to St. Cloud by their
youthful mushers. Despite the
thorough training which had been
administered as to the i'll practice
of fighting while in the race, sever
al stray st. Cloud dogs nearly de-
moralized the derby by attempting
to bully the running dogs into
canine arguments. The bullying
was more or less successful. The
attempt of the guards to keep on
looking boys and dogs off the
course was highly successful.
Spectators were offered a thrill
in every race when the two lead
ing mushers finished neck and neck
and crossed the line within two
feet of each other. Gilbert Bex-
zon lost out to Ed Gishard in the
third heat of the heavy class when
his dogs harness broke, when thu
two were running abreast within
three feet Of the tape.
Every dog and every boy was
wet to the skin at the, end of the
race.
The Sank Centre Airedale entry
and Mark Haines' pointer were the
best trained dogs in the races.
Both showed the results of long
training. Guishard rode on E's
/ sled during the three heats, ami his
airedale appeared to realize every
minute that it was racing.

voice, speaking through single

His voice was picked up IN
Europe and re-broadcast to count

MOSER WILL START
FOR ORIOLE TOSSERS

Earle Moser, former star in base
ball and basket ball at Central High
School, will appear with the Baltimore
Orioles at the Arcadia, Sunday and
Monday nights, when Johnny Beck
mans team meets the Washington
quint.
BY a kind turn of fate, Moser has
held on with the Orioles, despite the
fact that waivers We're asked on him
twice during the season. He joined
Baltimore at the start of the second
half season, playing in a number OF
contests as substitute guard and
center.
A few days ago at Cleveland, Moser
performed a stunt which may have
earned him a regular berth for the
remainder of the American League
season. Called into a fiercely con-
tested game in the last few seconds to
substitute for Buddy Bushman, who
was fouled and injured, Moser Gagged
the resulting pair of free losses and
enabled Baltimore to win by three
points.
Only one year has elapsed since
Moser was a high school player. Pro-
fessional players predicted bright
future for him then. however, and
subsequently he has lived up to the
good things said in his favor. He
also aspires to be a big league catcher,
having gotten start last Summer
when he warmed up the Washington
pitchers in the bullpen at Griffith
Stadium.
Tickets for the Baltimore series are
on sale at the Arcadia box Office, the
Hamilton, Willard and Mayflower
Hotels and Spalding's.
