LOUISVILLE, KY, May 2
One of the high spots of Derby
week, the Preparation purse at
a mile, brought some of the lead
ing Western hopes for the fifty
ninth renewal Of the Kentucky
Derby Saturday into the lime
light today.
Two of the leading Western
hopes were named to perform

maker and Fingal of Col. E. r.
Bradley's string likewise are
among the ten Derby eligibles
nominated to start in the Prepa-

Boilermaker and Fingal, it was
understood, are running today

Ladysman, the Derby favorite, is

All morning the team sat
around the spacious lobby OF the
Cleveland Hotel discussing this
and that angle Of the respective
trays, the teams two coaches,
Nick Altrock and AL Schacht,
dropping in a little later on after
an oil nights journey from
Albany, where the pair OF them
appeared in a special "day" at
Joe Cambria's new TRY to make
good" ball club site.
There's no doubt about it, this
1888 Griff entry is one in a
million when it comes to spirit
and hustle. Baseball is all the
players can talk about and quite
unlike other years there's hardly
a morning that passes by when
there isn't almost the entire ros-
ter sitting around in one grand,
big huddle, talking this, that and
the other thing over to the ben
eft Of every item that might
come up.
Team Hopeful
AS to the Griffs' showing on
this Western trip, it is needless
to say that every man is hopeful
that one of the most successful
invasions in years will be made.
On the other hand, none are
worrying about the situation
ahead, because as they say, to
worry would just be getting ones
self in a rut and it's this little
item that the entire roster wants
to steer unusually clear from.
Particularly when several did
worry when the team was in that
losing slump about two weeks
ago.
Getting back to the baseball
discussions of yesterday morning,
one Of the funniest "pops" was
offered by Bob Boken, the recruit
infielder, who broke up Sundays

Turns Baseball Fan

But along about the third or
fourth inning, after he's sure
the crowd is all in the park, he
turns from program and pen
Gil vendor to fan, and such a
fan you never saw!
How does he tell the plays?
you are asking yourself by now.
He tells them this way. He
has two sharp eyes along with
him in the form Of a little
pickaninnny who might be his
grandson or some neighbor's
boy and between them they
seem to get as much thrill
out of the play as a couple of
average fans possessing all of
their faculties.
To climb up the gangplank
just beyond the turnstiles and
see this old fellow peddling his
wares, you'd thinking you were
observing just some unfortunate,
eking out a living with his
programs and graphite, all of
which is somewhat true, but
when his days chore is done
and when all who will have
purchased his merchandise,
there isn't q hotter fan in the
park.
His youthful protege calls the
balls and strikes for him and
tells him where the flies and
hits go and how the runs &C
crue.
Oddly enough. his ears are
we'll attuned to the noises which
the play produces and much of
the progress of the game he can
tell by instinct. That is to say
that the sound of the ball hit
ting the catcher's mitt together
with certain reactions Of the
fans around him, help him to
follow the sport.

GOLD CUP RACE
DRAWS GREAT
.LEPPERS
By HARRY COSTELLO

WARRENTON, Va, May 2
! With the famous Virginia Gold
Cup race only four days away, in
dications today are that the
largest crowd ever to witness the
race will be in attendance Sat-
urday when the starter sends the
field away in one of Americas
three greatest steepleechases.
A crowd of Maryland Hunt Cup
proportions confidently is ex-
pected by the Virginia Gold Cup
committee.
Further, the best field ever to
contend for the coveted cup will
answer the call from paddock
to post late Saturday afternoon.
Topping the list Of entries is
Mrs. Frank M. Gould's Ostend,
six-year-old gelded son Of Sand
Mole, out of Vanity Fair, winner
of the Middleburg Hunt Cup.
Among others opposed to Ostend
will be Mrs. T. H. Sommerville'
Royal Bonnie, Flying Horse
Farms Light Hampson. William

Farms The Prophet, Miss Frances
Lynch'S Yeoman and Benjamin
Leslie Behr'S pair, Royal Play
and Sir John L.

Receipt of the entry Of. Yeo-
man, winner in 1882 Of the
Grand National in Maryland,
adds ZeSt to this years Virginia
Gold Cup. The seven-year-old
chestnut gelding, by Golden
Broom, out Of Rustic Lass,
scored a remarkable victory in
the Grand National mentioned
when he won over M. McGif-
fins famous lepper, Stonedale,
in a driving finish.
Mrs. Sommerville's Royal Bon
ME, seven-year old gelded son of
Royal 2nd-Bonnie Eloise, which
finished second in the Deep Run
Hunt Cup contention, probably
will hold the confidence of the
public in the Virginia Gold Cup,
as most Sommerville horses do.
Royal Bonnie seems to have re-
turned to the form which
marked his winning effort in
the Annefield Cup last October.
In that test he won by three
lengths from Lipan Lad.

hit driving across Joe Kuhel with
the winning marker.
Boken, a confident sort of
youth, naturally was all smiles
when his mates poured congratu-
lations upon congratulations on
him in memory of the incident,
but passed it off in one Of the
most unusual of instances IN
moons.
He said:
Thanks, boys, but somebody
tell Connie Mack he'd better
keep this Grove guy awhile
as he's got a pretty good curve
ball."
Joining heartily in the laughter
and fun" which followed, man.
ager Joe Cfonin was able to get
serious with your correspondent
for a moment about his plans
for this Cleveland series which
will end Thursday.
"The regular pitching rOta-

WhitehilI will pitch the opener,
Stewart the next and Weaver
the getaway game. That leaves
CrOwder to open against the
Detroit Tigers, followed by

der again. To be sure, I'm
hoping for a successful trip
and can say we'll be out there
fighting for every game re-
gardIeSS Of what club is the
opposition. Buddy Myer is
back and the rest of the boys
are in good shape and this is

And there you have 1t as the
Griffs get down to the business
Of what is hoped will ne many
a victory before Washington is
reached on May 16.

Interprets Sounds

Deep silence on the part of
the fans following the crack Of
the bat tell him the play is in
doubt and it is either a long
fly or some type of a hit. And
when the reaction of the fans
is complete it carries the result
to his sensitive ears.
Mr.. Eynon, the club business
manager and secretary, declares
this old gentleman has had the
program and pencil concessions
Of the main runway up into
the stand for as long as he can
remember and that he carries a
good reputation as a server Of
the public.
Nobody can infringe on his
territory which was selected for
him in view Of his disabilities,
because it is in the path Of the
majority Of fans Just after they
have passed through the gates.
He does a good business, has
regular custom erS and his
fingers are as adept at making
change as if he could see the
coins and bills which pass
through his hands.
Watch him the next time
you're at the park!

Dewey will need a prayer and

Arthur is one Of the mightiest
punchers local fight fans have

turned out for Marty Gallagher,
Reds Barry, Les Kennedy and
Matte Brown, but Huttick has
put all these gentlemen to shame
when it comes to throwing leather
to the mid-riff.
The winner has been promised
a shot at Gallagher within three

FOR QUINN

NEW YORK. May 2.-Jack
Quinn, the veteran spitball tosser,
has not yet run out his major
league string.
Six big league teams today are
understood to have made offers

in the big time will be extended
for another year at least.
Boston and Cincinnati, in the
