Discovery IS
Race FavOrite
Vanderbilt Ace Makes Test
Run in Speedy Time.

By OHted Press
ARCADIA, Cal, Feb. 19.-Discov-
cry A. G.. Vanderbllt's Sycamore
slusher, today quietly munched oats
in his stall while handicappers at
tempting to predict outcome of the
100000 added Santa Anita Handi'
cap next Saturday muttered, BEAT
Discovery and take it all"
The son of Display yesterday de-
monstrated that he was prepared tt
run the race of his life after work
ing out over the full handicap dis
lance of mile and quarter ir
2:08.
Discovery covered the distance ir
the heavy mud so easily that clock
ers blinked and checked the time
with an electric timer before they
would believe it.
The Vanderbilt horse carried his
full handicap weight of 100 pounds
and his regular pilot, Jockey Johnny
BejShak, up.
Odds on Discovery in the future
book at present are to 5 and they
were expected to drop even lower by
the day of the race. The price was
shortened from 2 to last Saturday
when Cavalcade and Head Play
were scratched.
Fred M. Ayers Azucar, winner
of last years Santa Anita handi-
cap, has strong dislike for a slow
track and may even be scratched if
the turf is not firm.

Them was the days." but they
were far cry from the hectic pro-
gram that has SuperimpoSed itself
on the modern sport page. Before
the winter calendar of 1886 has
been torn off, Indianapolis sports
followers will have been subjected
to one of the most strenuous periods
ever diShed out to a local public in
one season.
AS though the past two months
have not already given a headache
to the ardent public, the next few
months threaten a nervous break
down for any one trying to keep
abreast of the sports parade.
CTARTING off New Years day,
~ life was just bowl of adver-
saries, with most of the grid bowls
of the South and West holding mid
winter grid classics. Fans have
been kept in strict training ever
since by the usual torrid Hoosier
high school and college basketball
campaign. the Western Conference
race. indoor track meets, swimming
meets, appearances of cue artists,
hockey, Golden Gloves jamborees,
and weekly wrestling matches.
Indianapolis will be the central
sports pulse of the nation on at
least three occasions during the
next two months. The American
Bowling Congress tournament moves
into the spotlight at the special
alleys at the Playground March
and nearly $4,000 pinmen will make
an assault on the naples during
the flve-week stand ending April IA.
The Butler Indoor Relays, most
colorful collegiate carnival of the
winter. will attract the ma tons
foremost cinder and board-oval ath-
leteS on March 81.
The Hoosier capital. one Of five
centers where the National Collegi-
ate Athletic Association will hold
its Olympic team basketball tryouts,
will be the scene of the first tour
ney to draw such stellar aggrega-
tons under one roof as Notre Dame,
Purdue, Indiana, Northwestern.
Butler. Ohio State and Illinois. The
date has not been selected.
THE city high schools are taper
u ing off a strenuous hardwood
season in preparation for the cage
tournaments which in Indiana pro-
vide enough excitement for any
citizenry. The three-day sectional
gets under way at Tech High
School March 5. transferring to An
derson the following week for the
regional. and returning TO the East
Side gym March 81 for the semi
finals. The following Saturday. the
state association holds its expert
mental four-team state final here.
Easter Day brings the Indianapo-
lis Indians back to Perry Stadium
to lift the lid of another Anglican
Association race. With spring
sports coming to the fore with base
ball. golf, 500-mile race, tennis
matches and other events, fans will
realize that it's Olympic year and
the arduous winter season was tame
in comparison or that it is all an
endless cycle that rolls on unre-
strained. n

 My opinion is that while the people may have some objections to the New Deal, they are not going back to the Old Deal. They at least want a Square Deal" "
 Senator Borah's evident purpose of smoking out Dr. FeSs was almost inStantan- eously successful. The scath ing response of the former Chairman of the COP was in the form of an open state ment not only to Ohio but to the world. He declined to state whom he might favor for the Republican Presi- dential nomination, except that he "could be for Hoov CT without any apology.'
 "The Republican stand ard bearer, he insisted, must have a record of hay ing supported more Repub- lican measures than Dem ocratic measures having reference to the fact that Borah voted for 12 of the IT major New Deal laws.
 Among other imperative qualifications he listed:
 The nominee must stand for a protective tariff; he must permit a citizen to live his own life; he must stand for the open door of opportunity; he must stand for private industry; he must stand for sound mon- ey.
 To which Senator Borah declined further comment, but the word from Ohio was that the COP state commit tee would change it's strat- egy from requiring "abso lutely uninstructed' delega tes and violate the other Bo rah warning by putting up a "favorite son. in the May primaries to serve as a stalking horse at Cleveland.
