Pompoon Sure Of Keen
 Contention At 'GanSett

the only youngsters being conceded chances to run off with the lions share of the richest purse ever of- fered for horse race in New Eng land.
 Dark Horse? Over on the back stretch wise old clockers were watching closely every move in the direction of the barn of Cary T. Grayson, where Ocean Roll, a fine son of Strolling Player-Roagh Sea, is being careful ly groomed and guarded. Ocean Roll gave a striking illustration of his ability during the Narragansett Summer meeting when he ran away from crack field. The railbirds have been whispering about the an- tics of this fellow on the track about | dawn.
 P. T. Chinn, another smart hand Ter of horses, has the gelding Sa- turn, with plenty of speed but un- determined stamina, set for the Flu turity test. The fact that he has paid all the fees and plans to pay the necessary $500 to start the son of zacaweista is sufficient evidence of his confidence in its ability.
 Anyone who counts out the bay lilly Jewel Dorsett will have to deal with Trainer John B. Theall. A superior mud runner, probably her best demonstration of ability came at Narragansett Park on Sept. IS when she won by four lengths over such sprinters as Tootsie Cake, En- fin and Conservative. Jewel Dor sett was pulling away at the end of that five and a half furlongs and like her sire Cohort she should be able to travel over a distance.
 Belair Stud is ready to send Ri- parian, chestnut son of Sir Galla- had III, after the big purse. He has started only twice this year. His last outing was on Sept. 26 at Bel mont Park when he ran six fur longs in i'll 1-5 and showed a de- cided tendency to go on. He must be considered a threat in the Flu turity.
 Much Class
 E. R. Bradley's best two-year- old, Millionaire, has won six important races this year. His last outing at Belmont Park on Sept. B when he ran second to Maedic which he had defeated on a sloppy track at Sara toga on July II. His stirring stretch running has indicated that he will take plenty of beating in the closing strides of the Futurity.
 Calumet Farm is expected to send either Galsun or Gosum to Nara gansett for this event. Gosum ap- pears the logical nominee, Sired by Hotweed, his dam is Slow and Easy, tho Coast Guard Cadets.

Here it is Monday, and, as usual, for the past few starts of week, the Saturday football games and presi- dential election is the chief topic of conversation among the men who meander in for their gasoline bug gies serviced with Esso and Essolube. Notre Dame's 26-0 blanking seems to be thestops in the suprise depart ment, even though many of the football folks seemed to think that the Pitt Panther would claw its way through. It WIS the magin. that sur prised everyone, it seems, like the fellows who get too many calls from their stock brokers.

Substitute Bus Arrives in Time for Visit to New
 York State

Local jamboree troop members are on their way to Niagara Falls today, 1t was announced at Boy Scout headquarters this morning. A diary of the events of last Friday, compiled by Ray Cummings, scribe of the troop. has also been received at local headquarters. The letter sent from Camp Coolidge in Ver- mont on Saturday read as follows:
 July 10, l936.
 We were awakened today by bomb set off by the scoutmaster, and revielle by the bugle. We did not mind. however. because we found new bus waiting for us. The com- pany had sent the new bus up and 1t had arrived during the night. Af- ter marveiing at the bus for some. time, we found time to eat a good meal and proceed on our way. Great satisfaction was shown in the new bus both for room and for com. fort. Although the sky was full of clouds when we got up, before we had travelled one half an hour the sun came out and showed prom ise of 6 perfect day. The mountains are now left behind and giving way to the plains of northern New York. Our first real stop of the day was at Glen Falls. v. Y., where several purchases were made. We enter- tained the Glen Falls folks with some songs and selections by our Jamboree band. From that time on we did not stop until we reached Lake George. This proved to be one of the most beautiful stops made on this trip. We cooled off with a nice long swim before dinner. Din- ner was followed by a game period and then Q short swim before sup- per. Campfire was held after sup' per, songs and plays being the highs lights of this period. Then once more taps ended another joyful day of our trip; our fun and laughs of this day are now but Q very pleasant memory but another day Is yet to come, and We can be thankful TOT the health, wealth and happiness that this trip is bringing us.
