AT THE RACES

Racing fans wonder If Brevity
can be kept on edge until his
Kentucky Derby appearance.
I would think so able a trainer
as Pete Coyne could surely accom-
plish that, and he will have the
advantage of OBTAINING Brevity in
Florida's balmy weather, galloping
him over the perfect Hialeah
track, until April.
Meantime, some Of Brevity's
rivals must get out on damp, pene-
trating mornings, and over slushy
roads and tracks, often deep and
gumbo-like, do their logging up
exercises for the big race.
However, not all racing fans
are willing to concede Brevity the
Derby prize-not by any means.
For instance, a veteran Lexington
(KyD horseman. Mack S elf,
writes me that if the track is
muddy on May 2 the race will
surely be, Grand Slam first, and
the rest Qike opponents of Eclipse
200 years ago. nowhere
Incidentally, Mack is wondering
what is to happen to Top Row
when a Handicapped socks 13O
pounds onto his back. But Top
Row will not often be burdened
with such weight.
Take a tip, Mack: The owners
of Top Rows rivals will do as
much worrying as A. A. Baronl
about how handicappers treat
their horses. For they've got one
another-and Top RoW-to beat!
And before leaving Lexington,
let me remark that reports around
the little horse center OF America
have Hollywood looking in fine
shape. sound as dollar, galloplng
we'll and a grandly developed colt.

Eight Backs
Report For
Baseball


All IA backs, who were on the
University of Maryland football
team last fall, are taking part in
seasonal spring sports at the Old
Line School.
Eight of them-Jack Stone

ant, Waverly Whee Ter, Fred
Thomas, Jack Egan, Ed DAILY and
Jack Hurley-are with the base
ball squad. The first six appear as
almost certain regulars.
Bill GuckeySon, Coleman Head

fer are trackmen, the first two
named being aces, while Charlie
Ellinger and Buddy Yaeger are
outSs : nding lacrosse players, par
ticUlarlv ne former.
All except S2chs and Yaeger
will be back for the next grid sea-
son.
Gift To Lacrosse Team
Gorton Lindsay, a star center
from Baltimore City College, is
the 1885 frosh squads big gift to
the varsity lacrosse team. He
should round out great Terp at
tack. George Watson, a recruit at
tack player from Towson, Md,
also is impreSSing in the practice.
Members of last falls frosh
squad are bearing the brunt OF
the spring football drills and no
player who figured to any extent
in the Terps' 1885 varsity games
will be required to scrimmage.
Guckeyson, who has aspirations
to make the 1896 Olympic team as
a jayelin toSSer, has been unable
to get going this spring owing to
the effects of injuries suffered in
foot ball to the fingers of his right
hand and a nerve ailment in his
shoulder.
Coach BOpst DOwncaSt
Only one coach, Les Bopst OF
the tennis team, is downcast. His
successful 1885 squad has been
wrecked by graduations and with
drawals. However, he is cheered for
the future with a number of fine
netmen in the yearling class.
There are three unrelated Kel-
lers on the baseball squad, Charlie
Keller, the 500 Swatter of 1895
from Middletown, Md, Ralph Kel-
Ter from Frederick and Joe Keller

Jervis Spencer, jr., chairman OF
the Maryland Racing Commission
is working on a plan to improve
the posting of odds before the
races at three of the four major
tracks in Maryland. At present
Pimlico is the only track with q
totaliZator.
An electrical contrivance erected
which will enable the calculator
in the mutuel department to flash
the changes in the betting at reg
ular intervals accurately, will bt
proposed by Mr.. Spencer.
For a long time there has beer
much complaint because the
changes in the betting were MOI
promptly shown and even more
when a horse listed at or 6 to l
in the closing line of prices woulc
pay off 2 or to l.
It is believed that such an ar
rangement can be made without
a great deal of expense to the
tracks involved, and, if such prove!
true, then Bowie, Havre de Grace
and Laurel will make many
friends.
