RAINY WEATHER
CUTS ENTRIES In
KENTUCKY DERBY
BY JAMES NJ. KERR
United Press Correspondent

LOUISVILLE, KY, May IA. U,P)
Prospects OF a slow track reduced
the field for the Kentucky Derby
to II candidates today.
Additional rain yesterday almost
definitely eliminated Boys Howdy,
II. c. Hatchs three year old, from
the list of probable starters. Boys
HoWdy has been unable TO 90
through a good workout because of
the muddy condition of Churchill
Downs and unless the track dries
up considerable today, Hatch will
withdraw his eligible.
Even if no more rain falls, it is
doubtful if the racing strip will be
completely dried out by Saturday.
Should the track continue muddy.
Equipoise probably with gain much
support. Equipoise is a mudder
while Pittsburgher, Sweep All and
Spanish Play, the three leading
entrants from the west, also are at
their best in heavy going.
Final pre-derby races were sched-
uled for today. Few of the candi-
dates were allowed to work out
yesterday, although Equipoise and
Ladder were sent through short
speed sharpeners.
According to general opinion,
Mate, winner of the PreakneSs, will
go to the barrier a favorite to cap
ture the annual Kentucky classic
Twenty Grand probably will rule
second choice with the remainder
of the field well split up.
Pittsburgher, the leading western
hope, is not expected to provide
much competition for the crack
fasteners, although Theodore Muel-
ler's horse has continued to gain
support ever since his fine race
Tuesday and has taken rank over
Sweep All and Spanish Play. who
holds an outside chance.
It is understood here that Charles
T. Fisher, Detroit automobile body
manufacturer, has instructed his
trainer to enter Sweep All in the
derby regardless of the condition OF
the track Up, Mrs. j. M. Crofton's
entry, which won the Aqua Caliente
handicap. also is considered a cer-
tain starter.

TESTIMONY CLOSES
IN BRADY TRIAL
Defense Attorneys Surprise
With Offer to Send
Case to Jury.
BY a stan Correspondent of The Star.


ANNAPOLIS, Md, January 30
Taking of testimony in the trial of
Leroy Brady, charged with first degree
murder in the Seat Pleasant bombing,
came to an abrupt end today when at
torneys for the Washington automobile
mechanic suddenly rested their case
and offered to place the accused youths
fate in the hands of the jury without
any final arguments.
The State, however, decided to argue
the case, and Judge Robert Moss, before
whom the trial is being held in Anne
Arundel County Circuit Court, ruled
that the jury would be permitted to
hear arguments by three lawyers on
each side.
Announcement that the defense rested
came as surprise, since Hampton Ma
gruder, chief of defense counsel, had
asked that the trial be adjourned yes
terday afternoon to give him and his
associates opportunity to have their
witnesses summoned.
Frequent Verbal Clashes.
Final arguments for the State were
begun by j. Frank Parran, former
States attorney for Prince Georges
County. His address was interrupted
| by frequent verbal clashes with Magru-
der and Nicholas H. Green, another de-
Tense lawyer. Parran began by telling
the jury the State had presented "a
combination Of facts and material
| which should enable the jurors to con-
| Struct "a chain of conclusive facts,
| showing that Leroy had made the
bomb" He attempted to reconstruct
the bomb, but this was objected to by
Green. This objection was upheld by
Judge Moss.
Parran described the romance of
Naomi Hall, 10 years old, and Leroys
brother, Herman, with whom she eloped
| to Fairfax, Va, less than two months
before the bombing. At this point in
! Parran'S statement, Mrs. Nora Hall,
mother of the girl who was killed in
the explosion, suddenly became hySter-
ical and had to be assisted from the
crowded court room.
May Order Night Session.
With six attorneys scheduled to ad-
dress the jury, it seemed likely that a
night session would be ordered In this
event, it was expected that Leroys
fate would be placed in the hands of
the jury tonight.
The State rested its case yesterday
afternoon, after Judge Moss ruled that
DR.. Robert w. Woods testimony would
not be admitted in evidence. Dr. Wood
who is a qualified expert in the recon-
struction of bombs, attempted to re-
construct the machine which caused
the death of Naomi and her little
sister and brother on January l, 1880.
The most important testimony offered
thus far in the trial, which began Mon
day, was that of John H. Quintell, an
employe of the Census Bureau. He was
returning to his Seat Pleasant home
from washington about o'clock on
the morning Of December 20, 1929, he
testified when he saw man sitting in
an automobile parked within a few
blocks of the house of Mrs. Anna
