his new and latest death grip" on you.
 No Luck
 Another thing I should have warned the young journalists about is the difficulty of picking winners. Not everyone can be as fortunate as I. I suppose I was just born to be a picker of winners. Most men have to acquire the art. And little thanks get for the trouble. Why, two years ago when actually picked winner, do you think any, one wrote and congratulated me? No. The only letter got was from my aunt down in Georgia, telling me the turnip crop was coming along fine, was there any market for home made pumpkin pies in New York, and Uncle Sheck had just stopped by to say that he had heard I picked a winner and they were all worried about my health.
 YeSsir, could have told those boys and girls about many pitfalls if I hadn't been so sincere, and con- vinced even myself that I was at loss for words.
 Next stop Louisville, and don't forget that on Saturday will an- nounce the name of horse who may or may not win the Kentucky Derby.

AFTER NEW MARKS

Philadelphia, May 5. Eulace Peacock, Temple University's stellar sprinter and broad jumper and the only athlete to twice win the 100- yard dash and broad jump in the history of the Penn Relay carnival, will endeavor to establish new uni versity records in three events next Saturday when the Owls engage Holy Cross in 8 dual encounter on Temples track.
 Fast rounding into form after be- ing on the sidelines last year with g thigh injury, Peacock is priming for 9.4 time in the 10O-yard sprint, which docking will equal the worlds record for the event. Euly has been timed in 9.5 for the distance and Is certain he can clip g tenth off this mark.
 Anything under p seconds will enable him to establish 8 new stand- ard for the 220, while he will have to go 25 feet inches to better the broad jump record. Peacock'S best mark in the jump is 26 feet 3 inches, but that leap was made in an A.A.U. meet.
 The match between the Owls and Crusaders should be 8 first-clasS engagement, with five points or less being the margin of victory Tor either team. The contest will be the first track engagement between the teams.

 LONDON GUARDS
Would Make Great Spar ring Partners Says
 Ex=Fish King

London, May 8.-(UP)-KingfiSh Levinsky stood in front of Buck ingham Palace today, big black cigar in one hand and huge ice cream cone in the other.
 q wouldn't let go dat joint for no woman," he said. Dat guy Edward is sucker"
 The red coated soldiers appeared in the traditional guard changing ceremony and the mouth of the ex- herring handler fell open.
 "Jeez! Swell" he exclaimed. "How much do dem blokes get paid?"
 Forty cents a day, he was told, plus keep.
 Guess da fight racket ain't so bad, huh?" he enthused. Why I got five grand for just one fight and I got beat. Dose boids gotta wait a long time fo' dere dough. But, I guess it's da honor, huh?'' What is dis king stuff? Give me da low down, pal? Is he like Roose- velt?"
 By that time the ice cream cone had vanished and Levinsky strolled over to cart for another. Between huge puffs on his cigar, he decided he would have a lot to tell his girl when he got home.
 Sure, I gotta girl. Swell girl in Detroit. Her names Diane Greer. We gonna get married coupla months after I get back"
 With popping eyes, he watched the carefully picked guards, all standing six feet three inches.
 'Marvlus," he grunted. "Dey would make swell Sparring partners"

Columbia, Mo, May 6-(UP)-1 heard a speech yesterday at the Missouri School of Journalism here. Aside from subject matter and de- livery and a certain inability on the part of the speaker to remember what he had planned to say, iC was indeed splendid speech.
 At the conclusion of the address beamed my approval and was almost tempted to clap. However, was the speaker and some n- born sensitiveness told me that this was not the thing to do. Queer how many people in the, audience had that same inner feeling.
 Water Bus
 Now that the speech is over, I realize that I could have improved upon it. In burst of modesty I opened my speech by saying that l really didn't know what was go- ing to say To my intense surprise, when they stopped me thirty nin- utes later I was still on the same subject. I had failed to mention sports or journalism. By way of complimenting me on my talk, Dean Frank L. Martin told me that they never had had speaker at the School of Journalism who drank as much water. I take 8 quiet, aquatic pride in this distinction.
 If had the speech to do over again I would come right out and speak about sports in the first five minutes. After all, the subject of my address was Rowing the Nation for Sports" would like to have told those young journalists, par- ticularly those who planned, to fol- low sports, some of the periB of the profession. Take the danger of be- ing crushed to death in press boxes by persons who are in no way con- nected with the press, for example. I am convinced that big industrial companies hold their annual con- ventions in press boxes. Certainly I have covered many events with shoe and ice box salesmen who re- sented my being in there.
 And there is the matter of sports luncheons, specially those given by promoters for wrestlers and fight CTS. All catering for those occa- sions must be handled by one man, who obviously took up the job after serving an apprenticeship under some penitentiary chef. The food is always cold, heavy and indiges- tible. But you eat it, because across from you is Chief Little Wolf or his like, just waiting for you to be free so he can demonstrate

PITTSBURGH CLUB DELIGHTS FANS IN EARLY DRIVE
TraynOr's Team Won 9 of II Games--Cards, Cubs

By GEORGE K1RKsEY

United Press Stan COrrespOndent) New York, May 6-(UP)-Before the season opened the ball players had a saying-"On arms and legs Pittsburgh has the best team in the National league but they won't win the pennant."
 But that was before Pie Traynor read the riot act to the Pirates at the San Bernardino, Calif., training camp.
 Traynor's warning had the desired effect and Pittsburgh is off to it's fastest start since 1927. The Pirates have won out of II games and are setting a dizzlyI pace many experts believe will bring Pittsburgh an- other flag after a lapse of 10 years.
 Its a little early to claim the pennant," says Traynor, Eve are hustling and I look for tight race but I also look for Pittsburgh to be right in there at the finish
 Pittsburgh slashed down Brook 1yn yesterday for its fourth straight triumph, 5-1, holding its game and a half lead over the second place Cardinals.

 Dizzy Dean continued his master full pitching by holding the Boston Bees to six hits as the Cardinals pounded out IA hits for 13-1 vic- tory. It was Deans fourth straight triumph. He famed Il men, run- ming his strikeouts to B in 37 i1- nings. Dizzy also made single and double and two sacrifices in four times at bat. The Cards hit five homers-Medwick, Gutteridge, Bor- dagaray, Ogrodowski and Pepper Martin getting one each. Medwick hit his with the bases loaded of Turner.
 The Chicago Cubs scored their fifth straight-l ongest winning streak of the National league season by beating the Phillies, 17-4. The Cubs pounded four Philly pitchers for IT hits, including fomers by Demaree;. Marty and Collins. Dem- ares clouded his homer with three men on. Charley Root kept the Ph1is 10 hits scattered. Manager Grimm and Billy Herman of the Cubs and Coachd Hans Lobert of the Phils were banished for arguing with the umpires.
 Cincinnati broke a five-game loS- ing streak by clouting out II hits, including homers by Kampouris @, Gelbert and Goodman, to beat the New York Giants, 8-5. It was the Reds second win in Il games.
 The New York Yankees gained undisputed possession of the Ameri- can league lead by slugging out a 7-8 victory over Detroit. Monte Pearson held the Tigers to eight
 its and struck out eight men, wir1- fling his second game. The Tanks made 12 hits off Sorrell and Auker. Staging six run rally in the eighth the Philadelphia Athletics nosed out the Chicago White, 7-6. Monty Stratton, who had won his first two games, held the As to one run until the eighth when he collapsed. Bill Cissell, who once cost the White Sox $123, ,000 but now performs for the As hit a single with the bases loaded.
