LOUISVILLE, KY, May 2.-Thun-
dershowers fell here today as thou
sands of turf fans converged on Louis
vile for the Sixty-second running OF
the Kentucky Derby. A drizzle at
dawn turned into heavy shower. ac-
companied by lightning.
The rain which drenched the busi-
ress district amounted to only
drizzle at Churchill Downs Race Track
at the southern edge of the city.
After about As minutes the sun
shone through the clouds which were
thinnest in the East and South. The
forecast, however, called for inter-
mittent showers during the day.
At least Is of the l9 overnight
entries. survivors of an original field
of 102, appeared certain to start, rain
or shine. Post time for the race. over
the traditional mile and a quarter
route at Churchill Downs, was 4:4O

The race itself, drawing to this Blue
Grass Capital the greatest throng
since the postwar depression, will
have a gross value of s50,l50, with the
winner receiving S39,725 net If all the
overnight entries accept the issue.
The field is one of the largest in re-
cent years and is only three short OF
the record of % that faced the barrier
in 1923 when Reign Count won.
The pageantry surrounding the
classic was the most brilliant since
the boom days Of the last decade.
some 10000 fans, from every walk Of
life, were expected to pack the ram
bling grandstand paralelling the quar-
ter-mile stretch and wager close to
s1,500,oO0, the largest amount in the
last half dozen years.
Thousands get only a fleeting
glimpse of the horses, however, as
they break from the barrier at the
head Of the stretch, swing past the
grandstand fighting for a contending
position and then take out over the
remaining mile leading to riches and
fame. Their knowledge of the race
will come from the loud speakers,
but they will share the thrills that
make the Derby more than a mere
horse race.
The drive on Louisville, which
started Monday and increased daily,
reached its crest this morning Rail-
roeds, bus lines, airplanes and pri-
vately-owned cars poured their pas
sengers into an already crowded, but
gaily celebrating city.
Fever Hard to Explain.
1t Is hard to explain this Derby
fever. The same horses rur in richer
races at other tracks later il. the sea-
son but minus the glamour and furor
that attends the Kentucky classic.
