INTEREST IS HIGH
 IN ANNUAL DERBY
Great Race to Be Run at Epson
 Downs Track Tomorrow

London. May s1 R-John Bulls annual attack of Derby fever is proving as virulent as ever this year. Tomorrow's great race at Epson Downs is occupying the thoughts of hundreds of thousands of persons whose ignorance of horses is com parable only to their sanguine hope of winning something either in the large sweepstakes or private bets.
 Thousands of those able to afford seats will assemble under tho stars and stripes flying in honor of Cap tain Lindbergh alongside tho Union Jack. and the American aviator 8 presence as a guest of Lord Lons- dale can be relied on to augment the crowds which unfailingly swarm over the Downs on Derby Day.
 Tipsters declare that bettors' chances areswider spread this year than usual. for 1t is one of the most open of the many open Derbys since the race was founded in 17so by the Lord Derby of that time. There is no single outstanding favorite among the twenty-stx three year old colts and Allies that are expected to start the historic mile and . half course. but followers of the sport are generally convinced that victory lies among four colts which up to now have shown nearly equal form. These are Frank Curzon's Call Boy. Lord Derby's Sickle. Colonel Whit burns Adams Apple. and Sir Victor Sassoon's Hot Night.
 Call Boy. which suffered trivial scratch while being shipped from Newmarket to Epson yesterday causing momentary apprehension. il somewhat more favored in the bet ting than the remainder of the quartet.
 The betting of the race is gener- ally said to be less considerable than usual, perhaps because this is the first Derby since the institution of the betting tax. but tho Sweepstakes probably have never been moro nu- merous or larger.

By the way. that catch of Ben Reilly off Frankie in deep center was a pippin. It robbed the local swatter of sure double.
 For the third consecutive season or since 1920 when 1t tied with New Britain for the title. the New Haven Hillbouse High school team captured thee Triangular league baseball championship.
 New Haven has always been the goat in the Triangular series. es- peciaily in football. but of late years 1t has been coming back strong.
 Last year 1t was considered the state champion in basketball since 1t won the tournament at Yale but the New Britain team. which was not entered. defeated 1t twice and therefore had the logical claim on the title.
 Haynes, who has been a thorn in the side of the New Britain base ball teams for the past four years. will not be seen in action with the New Haven team after this year.
 Two New Britain boys were re- sponsible in a large measure for the defeat by the Pextos of Southington of the Corbin Red sox in the first Central league game Sunday. Eddie Ziegler and Ray Begley were the two.
 Ziegler played a whale of game at second base, getting some spec tacular stops and throwing his men out at first base. He knocked the first ball pitched over second for a single and scored on Hackbarth's double to left.
 ,eglcy was the old, heady player ', past years. He couldn't solve Buckland's. delivery but he picked swung at the ball and got to first. He scored later in the inning.
 The Red Sox were the prime fav- orites to win the game but the South ington team presented a strong line- up. Eddie Hackbarth caught. Por- ter, slim southpaw. did the work in the box. Heinie Darlington of basketball fame. played first. Zieg- Ter was on second with Gibson at short and Joe Jasper at third. Alan Moran, Ray Begley and Louis Fon- tana formed the outfleld combina- ton.
 Gibson, the Meriden boy who play cd shortstop for the Pexto team, was about as neat . player as we have seen. This boy is finished and he can hit often and hard. He is due to go up if he keeps up his work on the team.
 Joe Jasper didn't have . chance on third base during tho game and Joe was just as well satisfied. He will probably be stationed at the dizzy corner for tho remainder of the season.
 Ginger Clsary lost his entire baseball outfit from m automobile while en route to Bristol yesterday morning and if any kind autoist who was passing. picked up tho bag. "Ginger" will appreciate . word to him about it.

 "Chucky'' Wojack is standing a lot of kidding from the bleachers today after letting an old timer like Clyde Waters suck him in on the old ''badger" game yesterday morning. Second base was occupied with "Chucky" on first when Waters sig nailed for a pitch out. Goodridget { playing first ran in ss for a bunt and Malcolm slipped down from second to take snap throw and Wojack was sound asleep. .......
 This play served in great meas ure to kill a potential rally by the Falcons. This was the first out of ths inning.
 The hardest blow was when "Chucky' was told to do his sleep ing at home.

Speaking of Sports

Russ Fisher pitched great ball to win for the Falcons over the New Departure in Bristol yesterday morn- ing, but sparkling fielding by the Budneck brothers helped consider ably. Stanley Budnick at third made a one-hand grab of a hard smash off Clyde Waters bat with q man on base that certainly saved one run. and Simon Budnick. out in left field, took long fly on the dead run which was labeled for extra bases with runners on the paths.
 Fishers stunt in flaming Zetarski and Horkheimer with two on base was a nice bit of twirling. He showed rare nerve in throwing bad balls to both hitters. apparently ap- preciating that their anxiousness to hit would send them after the high and wide ones.
