SANTA ANITA RACE TRACK,
ARCADIA, CAL, Feb. 19.-Only a
few of the most doughty steeds
will enter finals of the who can
beat Discovery" contest here, ac-
cording to indications among
turfmen today.
For one thing, the "Red War
rior" from the Alfred Gwynne
Vanderbilt Stable already is an
8-5 favorite for the running Of
the 100000 Santa Anita Handi-
cap Saturday, and for another,
some of his talked-of contenders

|. Rival owners were rubbing
their eyes and shaking their
heads and giving other indica-
tionS that perhaps it. might be
as we'll if they followed the lead
of Cavalcade and Head Play and
chose not to run.
This procedure followed a work
out on the part of the Wander
bilt horse yesterday. AS his train
er put it, they ''let the horse go"
for the first time this season.
And, packing his prescribed 130
pounds, Discovery waded through
bottomlesS muddy track for the
full handicap distance Of q mile
and a quarter in 2:08.
Tick On Far in Van
At the same time a new threat
loomed, but it was a threat that
possibly will cause withdrawal
of four other horses from the
race.
Five horses went poStward hope
fully yesterday, and all five were
just tuning up for the big race.
Tuning hardest of all, Neil Nc
Carthy's Tick On swan in just
10 lengths ahead of the field. And
if the other four aren't with
drawn by the owners, public opin-
ion as to their chances of showing
in the race undoubtedly has been
withdrawn.
Those four horses, in the order
of finishing, were Walter E.
O'Hara's Howard, the British con.
tender Flamenco, Greentree Sta
bles' First Minstrel, and the Cana
dian entrant, Crofter.
The swoUnagS still given the best
chance to upset the dope. Time
Supply and Top Row, remained in
their barns yesterday, but some
others took workouts.
The best workout was turned in
by Foxcatcher Farms Rosemont,
who slid over the mile and a quar-.
ter in 2:09 is. He's threat in
any mans mud, as is Fred M.
Alger'S Azucar, last years winner,
who did the distance in 2:15 2-5.

dark horse" continued pretty
dark when he clipped off a mile in
1:47.
There is a growing membership
in the watch Whopper" club here
but the giant Florida hope remain
ed in his barn yesterday.
At any rate the workouts and
race yesterday proved one thing.
Discovery is in his peak form.
Tick On's performance was bril-

serves to take a place among the
real contenderS. AStride him was

If he had lived, the late Frank
Navin, owner of those world
champion Detroit Tigers, would
own Major BoweS-the horse, not
the broadcaster. Colonel Phil T.
Chinn did not breed Major BoweS,
but picked the colt from the 1885
yearling crop of a Lexington
breeder with the intention Of sell
ing him at Saratoga.
But the youngster went lame
and could not be shipped for the
big sales. Then, recovered, he was
entered in the Lexington No
vember sales, and Frank Navin,
desiring a few likely young horses,
as was his won't every now and
then, commissioned Colonel
Chinn to buy anything he
thought worth the money. And
the Colonel proceeded to bid in
his colt for Navin, at $1,400.
But Navin died within "a hours,
so with the colt, a fine looking
brown fellow by Ariel (Sire Of the
clever Ariel Crosse back in his
barn, Chinn decided to call him
Major Bowes, and he will be raced
under the Colonel's own white
and red"
Race at Churchill
You get the tip-off on Chinn's
high opinion of Major Bowes as
a prospective stakes winner
through his having picked him
for Navin'S string. The colt will
race at Churchill Downs this
spring.
Incidentally, Colonel Chinn did
not name the fleet racer Sarazen
Of his own inspiration, but at the
request Of Coley Madden. a close
friend of the great golfer.
Speaking of colonies, we note
by the public prints that Col. Abe
Hallow has decided to quote fu-
ture odds against the Kentucky
Derby. Like Frank Shannon, Tom
Shaw, Tom Kearney, the colonel
is a layer-of-odds who pays off.
Those who like to play the Derby
months and weeks in advance
need have no jitters about receiv-
ing a check from the Colonel
promptly-if they win. That is
the trick-not to find the Hallow
cashier-but as the cockney horse
player walled, to find the bloomin'
winner Of the blinkin' Darby!
The biggest killing ever made
on a shortpriced future book IA

One rather wealthy layer Of fu-

clared months ahead that If Nor

wanted to get broke. He did, and
never since has been back in the

BERRY PARLEY
ACCORD SEEN
International News Service


Although rumors of boycott and
dissention persist. Major Jeorge L.
Berry, coordinator for industrial
cooperation, predicted today his
December conference of industry
and labor will be a success. He
said:
"The response is very graft
flying and the number and ma
ture of refuSals has been trivial
by comparison with those who
have accepted and who will at
tend.
"We know that we will have
100 per cent of those industries
who represent the best of the
American tradition"
The major industries are under
stood to be willing to go along with
the President in labor legislation
but they object to Berry personal
ly. In addition to Berry's associa.
ton with labor's Non-Partisan
League, industrial heads also OBJ.

CASH BALANCE
OF u. 5. LOWER;
LOAN SEEN

The Treasury's working cash
fell below the 1000 million-dollar-
mark yesterday, indicating that
Secretary Morgenthau will be
forced to borrow new money in
the December financing operation
to meet Government expenses.
Morgenthau has followed a
policy of maintaining 1000 mil
lion dollars in cash on hand since
he became head of the Treasury
and has reiterated his intention
to continue to do so because of
unsettled European conditions.
The working balance yesterday
was $987 ,809,12 compared with
$2,225, 5,112,350 at the beginning OF
the fiscal year, July l.
Morgenthau has announced
plans to pay off in cash 400 mil
lions in bills maturing December
Is, and to refinance other matur-
ing obligations aggregating 787
million dollars.
Under the Administrations
fiscal program, he may borrow
300 millions in new cash. How
ever, since President Roosevelt has
indicated he will ask Congress for
500 millions in January for relief
purposes, Morgenthau may be
forced to exceed the budget limit
by that amount.
Morgenthau said he would an
nounce the financing program
December 7.
