INTERNATIONAL
DOG DERBY IS
W ON BY YOUTH

QUEBEC, Feb. % (P)-For the sec
ond successive year Emile st. GODDARD,
21 year old musher of The Pas, Man
itoba, has captured the annual inter-
national dog derby-123 miles in three
days.
Covering the final 41-mile grind to-
day in three hours, 80 minutes sec
onds, he won the event in the face Of
a gallant challenge offered by Leon
hard Seppala, veteran driver of Nome,
Alaska. SepEiala, covering the Last
heat in 341:4O, was second and Earl
Bridges Of The Pas third
The total times for the three days
were: st. GODDARD, HIATT; Seppala,
11:17:3O; Brydges, 11:28:25.
In the final analysis it was ten
minute advantage st. GODDARD gained
on the field on the first day of the
race that decided the issue. Seppala,
hero of the famous dash to Nome with
serum during the diphtheria epidemic
few years ago, found this margin
too great to overcome. He closed the
gap separating him from ST. GODDARD TO
a fraction of minute in the second
days grind, but the exertions of that
effort took it's toll from his team of
Eskimo huskies AS a result st. Cod
ards team was the fresher today and
enabled the eventual winner to in
crease his margin to more than min
utes at the finish. Seppala had started
the last day only 40 seconds behind his
rival
Bridges, ten minutes behind Seppala
at the start of the final heat, lost
ground during the day. The final
stretch took him 3:42:20 more
than minute over the Alaskan's time.
st. Godard's victory came in the
way of revenge for a reversal suffered
at Seppala's hands in the 130-mile
point-to-point race OF the New Eng
land sled dog club at North Conway,
NJ H., last week. Brydges finished
third in that event also.

signed up some of last years players.

( luxe who played a bang-up game at

signed for the coming season.
"Nicho" Valenzuela, the fast moving
shortstop who was big factor in the

signed. according to Manager Salem.
Louie" Rubio, the big, husky out
fielder, whose potent bat, kept the
team in the running last year, will
again take his post at center field.
Pinon and Soliz, the two other garde-

come to terms and will again be seen
in the outfield Pinon who held down
left field for the Stars last season is
one OF the hardest hitters in the club
and fans who watched the team play

Soliz, the third member of the trio,
will help out the team this year with
his consistent hitting and speed on the
bases Soliz also has the best throw
ing arm on the team and will cut
down many runs with his throws from

RICKARD ASKS FAVOR

The big Basque wood-chopper,
Pauline Uzcudun, now is in a position
to serve as a very generous Santa
Claus to Tex Rickard and his boy
friend, Gene Tunney, as well as the
other current heavyweights
Lest you've forgotten, the Basque
has an engagement in Los Angeles
this month to take on George Godfrey,
the current Black Menace since Harry
Wills decided to let old age have its
say about his ring career.
Harry Wills, you remember, failed,
to get much of a nod from Jack Demp-
sey when he was champion, and George
Godfrey has not excited Tex Rickard
any in his elimination plans But he
is talking, and talking plenty, and that
is what has Rickard, Tunney and COM
pany worried.
Uzcudun and Rickard are not on
very good speaking terms these days
and the Basque is not among the cur
rent heavyweights who are elin1inat-
ing one another for Mr. Rickard these
days. Just the same, however, Rick
ard is very much interested in Uzcu-
dun.
If Uzcudun chops down the ne
gro, it will ease what little worry
Rickard has at this time about
the loud talking of Godfrey. With
Godfrey beaten by one already
eliminated, how could he seek a
fight with the champion?
WILL PAULINO WIN?
Pauline has Jared tolerably well in
his fights in this country since his ar
rival here, although he has been beat
en- by Johnny Risko and lost on q
foul to Jack Delaney. He recently
knocked out Romero Rojas in Mexico
City, and has victories over Knute
Hansen, Tom Heeney, Harry Wills, Pat
Lester and Ed Keeley to his credit.
He's not such "a ham as some would
have you believe, and he is not one
that is regarded in the Set-upclass by
Godfrey and his manager, Jimmy
Dougherty
Perhaps he won't slaughter Cod
frey-then what? Well, Godfrey would
continue talking and looking for fights
that eventually would lead him to a
fight with the champion.
Which, by the way, won't be fight
with Champion Gene Tunney, as that
young man has already expressed
himself on the color question and is a
person who does not change his mind
about such subject.
1t looks as if the best thing for
Pauline to do to get on the calling
list of Mf. Rickard is to knock
Godfrey out of the way. But there
is big question as to whether he
is able to do the trick.

LOAFING PEONIES CAN
BE MADE TO BLOOM

Peonies which have been holding
out on flower growers by not bloom
ing satisfactorily, or not at all, should
be taken up, divided, and replanted in
fresh soil, says Louis Sando of the
division of horticulture at University
Farm. The failure to bloom may be
due to too deep planting, lack of fer
tility or moisture caused by the
crowding of trees and shrubs, and
disease injury to the dormant buds.
"Peonies can be divided at any time
in the fall" says Mr.. Sando, "care
being taken to replant with the eyes
or buds not more than two inches be-
low the surface. If the garden is on
a slope and there is danger of wash
ing, the crowns may be three inches
below the surface to give greater
protection to the buds through the
winter. Pieces of root having three
to five eyes are quite large enough
to replant.
"Order bulbs now for spring bloom
ing, whether indoors or out of doors.

WHAT TO DO, NOT TO
DO, IN STORING BULBS

Gladiolus bulbs, which have been
dug by this time by a majority of
home gardeners, should be stored with
care, or losses will follow, says Louis
Sando of the division of horticulture,
University of Minnesota. "a storage
season of at least seven months to
look forward to should impress all
gladiolus growers with the necessity
of providing the best storage condi-
lions possible" he says" These bulbs
should not be stored in tempera-
ture above 48 degrees F. nor in a
room having too dry atmosphere.
"Dahlias and cannas should be dug
after the frost has cut down the foil
age. Cut just above the soil line with
a spade and, as for gladioli, have the
right storage conditions-fo dahlias,
AZ degrees and for cannas not above
so. If the cellar is very dry, pack
the roots in sawdust, sand or ashes,
and cover with the same substance.
Keep cool and not too dry. Naturally
no water must be given.
"Geraniums may be hung upside
down in the vegetable cellar without
injury. If in pots they should be
kept from growing too much; give
them just enough water to prevent
shriveling"
