ANNEX DERBY
BY GEORGE KIRKSEY
United Press Staff Correspondent

CHICAGO, May l. - The Ken
lucky Derby, to be run at Church
i'll Downs Saturday, is no longer
wide open race.
Cavalcade is the colt to beat.
Two smashing victories within
four days at Havre de Grace have
stamped Cavalcade as the leading
candidate for the 60th running of
Americas most famous horse race.
Cavalcade tied the track rec
ord in winning the Shenandoah
purse in 1:41 As for a mile and 70
yards on Wednesday and came back
to break the track record in WIN
ming the Chesapeake stakes in 1:43
3-5 for a mile and one sixteenth on
Saturday.
Mrs. Isabel Dodge Sloane bought
Cavalcade as yearling for $1,000.
He is the son of Lancegayne, an
English stallion, and he is bred
to go the route. He has never run
bad race. He started II times as
a juvenile and won only twice but
he was never farther back than
fourth, and usually was coming on
at the finish.
Mack Gardner, one of the smart
est jockeys in the business, will ride
Cavalcade. Garner has won almost
every important stake except the
Kentucky Derby and he'll be
knocking at the door for this prize
four days hence
That's the combination to beat
Cavalcade and Garner.
The next six best seem to be
the DiXiana stables Matt Hari
John Simonetti's Sgt. Byrne, Col
E. r. Bradley's Bazaar, Alfred G.
Vanderbilts Discovery, Alec Cor
don's Sir Thmoas and Norman
ChurchS RiSkulus.
The rest of the prospective field
of 18 or more seem to be shooting
at the moon. In this classification
apparently are Dan SABBATH, Spy
Hill, Agrarian, Speedmore, Singing
Wood, Peace Chance, Prisce Pom
pey Jabot, Time Clock, Soon Over,
Fogarty, Bender First, War Pledge,
Vitamin B, Royal Leon, Thomas
vile, Count Rae, Quasimondo, Naval
Cadet and Blue Again.

PACIFIC COAST
LEAGUE GAMES
(By United Press)

The test for which Pacific Coast

today when the league leading Los
Angeles Angels left their home
grounds to meet the Mission Reds
at San Francisco.
In a four week stay on their own
lot, the Angels slaughtered four
opponents, collecting % victories in
% contests. For their first round
trip, always a test of team
strength they are pitted against
the club which holds second place
in the race and which has lost only
five games in the last three weeks.
Keen pitching tests are antici-
pated during the week when Camp
bell, Henshaw, Nicola and Thomas,
aces of the Angels powerful staff,
meet Mitchell, Thurston, Cunning
ham and Babich, headmen of the
Mission hurting corps.
The schedule for the fifth week
also produced battles for third,
fifth and seventh places in the
race.
At Hollywood the San Francisco
Seals and the Stars will vie for the
third place now held by the Seals.
At Sacramento, the Senators and
Oakland, separated by half a game,
will contest for fifth place. At

Mr.. H. A. Condron, Secretary,
Tucson Chamber of Commerce,
Tucson, Ariz.
Dear Mr.. Condron: We hope very
much that Tucson is going to be
strongly represented at the Dallas
convention of the Broadway of
America. Present indications are
that San Diego will send three cars,
with about II persons. Imperial
Valley will send four persons and
Yuma is sending four persons, in
cluding Clarence Dunbar, president
of the Yuma County Chamber of
Commerce.
In all these communities there
is great campaign being made to
secure voting memberships in the
Broadway. I bring all these mat
tiers to your attention so you may
know that very vigorous effort is
being made here to have a strong
representation.
We hope very much that Tucson
will be at Dallas in great numbers.
The whole futuretof the Broadway
OF America will be determined at
this meeting and it is necessary
that Southern Arizona and South
ern California have a large men,
bership for they must battle to hold
their own against selfish interests
which take what rightfully belongs
to their neighboring communities.
Yours very truly,

SEMI FINAL
BOUT LOOKS
To BE GOOD

The heavyweight battle between
Hank Hamilton, San Diego scrap
per, and Art Mccullough, young Ell
Centro boxer may steal the show
being arranged for the local arena
Friday night, according to promoter
Trench King. Art has been box
ing at San Diego and acting as
sparring partner for Lee Ramage
during the past two months and
has developed into a good boxer
with a punch in either hand.
In his San Diego bout last Fri
day night, Hank lead during the
opening rounds of the battle while
Hamilton came back strong at the
close to win draw. Their rematch
here this week ought to be a WOW.
The main event between Bobby
Leyvas of Yuma and frankie Ven
egas, Anaheim is sure to make a
hit with the fans. Bobby stands
ace high with the valley fight fans
and although Venegas has a higher
rating than the Yuma feather
weight, he is just youngster and
was runner up for the Olympic
championships.
Venegas has been working out
here this week and the boys who
have been sparring with him say
he packs terrific wallop. He may
stop Bobby Friday night but it
will be a good battle from start
to finish as Leyvas knows how to
use his hands and the fans will be
with him all the time.
Murder Wilson, also of Yuma and
Santa Espinosa of San Diego will
be seen in the six round special.

LOS ANGELES, May /. U.P)--
The University of Southern Cali

of the I. c. A. A. A. A. meet 10
be held at Philadelphia this year
BY unanimous vote, the general
athletic committee voted against
sending the Trojans east to COM
pete in the annual classic they
have won six times in the last 10
years.
Principle reason for its unexpect-
ed withdrawal was ascribed to
Southern California IS sponsorship
of the N. c. A. A. meet at the col
iseum here in June, the first time
the meet has been scheduled on
the west coast. Athletic officials
said they desired to concentrate
university interest in the local meet
The Philadelphia trip also would
interfere with the team IS scholas-
tic work during examination per-
iodS it was said. A third reason
advanced was that Southern Califor-
MIA has underwritten the N. c. A.
meet to the extent of $4,000, just
about all the athletic fund can
stand for track and field expenses.
Prof. Hugh c. Willett, chairman
of the athletic board, emphasized
that the withdrawal will not per-
manently keep the Trojans from
future I. c. "A meets.
"We have no reason to believe
now that there will be anything to
stand in the way of our participa-
ton in the meet next year." Will
