Several Candidates for
Classic Derby to Have
Initial Tryouts.
THIRTEEN DAY MEETING
Two Innovations Tried Out
at Track.

BIZ CHltCd Press
LEXINGTON, KY, April I'll
Several candidates for the Kentucky
Derby were to have their initial
tryout of the season today when
the tl1irteen-day race meeting
opened at the Lexington Course.
1t was the opening of the Ken
lucky racing season and more than
1000 thoroughbredS we're ready for
the meeting.
The feature of the opening day
was the Camden handicap and
fourteen OF the best three-year-old
f1llies in training were entered.
Reveries Gal was the favorite.
Two innovations we're to be tried
today.
The new starting gate, invented
by Tex Jaris, was to be used for
the first time on a Kentucky track.
Also for the first time in Ken
lucky history the mutuels will pay
off on the penny. Heretofore the
mutuels received every cent under
10 cents.

Friday Victory Supplies Many Thrills

ing as fast as his weak ankle would
permit And he campcd under the
drives OF the next two Blues in the
tenth in addition to producing a
timely single in the Indians half
of the extra round that advanced
Haney to second, Haney having
reached first on walk.
Haney Steals Third
When Russell attempted to sac
rifice, popped a bunt to Pitcher
Nelson, Tribe hopes fell, but Haney
quickly took a lead of second and
headed for third as Nelson pitched
to Mueller, and Fred gained the
bag.
Mueller promptly nailed one of
Nelson's offerings for a line drive
to Nicholson in deep right and
Haney dashed home after the catch
with the victory run.
Bill Burwell stayed the limit on
the Indian mound and the Blues
got to him in only two innings with
success, in the fifth and seventh,
their tally in the third being I'M
earned.
Davis Blows" In Ninth
Dixie Davis, after twirling big
league ball for the Blues for eight
stanzas, allowing only three hits
during that long stretch, suddenly
lost control in the ninth and blew
when he held lead Of 4 to l.
Three walks and Holke's three
base smash to the right field corner
tied the game, ruined Davis and
sent him to cover, Nelson relieving
him. The new twirler put on the
brakes, but the indians beat him
in the tenth.

For the benefit of the boxing
world, Dempsey reiterated that he
would not enter the ring again even
if he lost the suit.
Nothing could make me fight
again." Dempsey said.
Dapper Jack Kerns is the only
important witness who has not been
called to the stand, and it Is his
testimony that may eventually de-
eide the outcome of the suit. 1t
was learned indirectly that Kearns
will take the stand Monday.
Jack Dempsey took the stand
three times in the opening day and
was glad when thep laintiff's coun-
sci released him. He chewed gum,
moving his jaws feverishly when Ia
was not answering a question.
Questions about how much
money he made out of the Tunney
fight, about Gene Normile's rela-
tionship with him while he was pre-
pairing for this fight and about his
exhibition tour of Europe bothered
Jack.
He was evasive and qualified all
of his statements pertaining to
money.
