Montanez floored Orlandi three times in the ninth round and three times in the tenth. Although the referee had counted the Italian out, his handlers sent him out again after brief rest.
 Montanez promptly knocked him out once again. To make sure that he would not have to repeat the performance he did such thorough job that Orlandi spent three months in the hospital. That was Orlandi's last fight, for the government or dered him to retire and granted him a yearly pension of 10000 lire.

San Diego Is Again Forced Back to Top of P. C.

(By Associated Press)

San Diego is back again at the top of the Pacific Coast League standings partly because the bot tom placed Portland club came to life and slaughtered Los Angeles last night. The defeat set the Los An geles club into second place, tied with San Francisco.
 An eight run rally in the fifth inning was the high spot in Port lands uprising against Los Angeles.
 Dominick Di Maggie, brother of the famous Joe, won the Seals first game from the Indians yes- terday when he smashed out two bagger to send in the winning run. Freddie Muller clinced the nightcap for Seattle by homer with two men on bases.

ithe limit, and thus had his cham pion risk only loss of prestige.
 He's Legal
 Montanez is supposed to be a Ilegitimate lightweight. just as is Ambers. Then why not let 'em fight as lightweights, we wondered. Just why did the lads fight at all? It was pointed out that Mon- ltanez was fighting for chance at the title. He had to beat the cham pion in non-title bout to prove his right to championship affair In other words it was not for keeps this time. The real thing will be saved for a later date. Out doors, perhaps, where larger gates are possible. Isn't that cute? It was the Puerto Rican's 28th straight victory. The globe-trot- ting Puerto Rican has seen more than little of this big world. He has fought in South America, the United States, France, Italy, Spain Switzerland and, of course, in Puer- to Rico.

Ethan Allen, the Scholar, Becomes Bard of
 Baseball

SAN ANTONIO, Tex, April "A Scholarly, semi-bald Ethan Al len, who carries a masters degree as well as a potent batting average now divides his time between the St. Louis Browns outfield and his portable typewriter.
 The 33-year-old University of Gin cinnati and Columbia graduate is writing a book explaining base balls ins and outs as told to hin by stars of today and of other years.
 Allen is primarily interested ir teaching baseball to youngsters through his book. A Boston pub- fisher is waiting for it's compile ton, expected by Allen in the late winter or early spring of '38.
 Allen, something of fence buster in his better moments, isn't a regular fixture in the Brownie outfield but he keeps Manager Rog- CTS Hornsby's first string garden CTS wondering how long they vii be in the lineup.
 Strangely, he always seems tt just miss World Series pot. He was with the Giants in '32 ano moved on to the Cards next season the year the Giants bagged pen- nant.

NEW RAGING
 PLANT OPENS
 DURING C JUNE
New Course Has Features of Aintree, Top Am
 erican Tracks
By ORLO ROBERTSON AP Turf Writer

WILMINGTON, Del, April "A. = From Engiana's Grand National steeplechase course at A.ntree and Americas foremost tracks came the ideas that are being moulded into Delaware Park newest of the coun- try's thoroughbred racing plants.
 The sl,oO0,OOO project, located some seven miles from this city, will be a composite of the finest fea- lures of other courses, plus some personal ideas of William du Pont Jr. It opens on June 26 for the first meeting under Delaware's new pari-mutuel law.
 Du Pont is owner of Rosemcnt lend Fairy Hill which won the $l00.- 900 handicap and $50,000 derby on successive Saturdays at Santa An ita this past winter. He holds no office in the association, which in- cludes 25 stockholders, but is per- sonally supervising much of the construction.
 Club On The Roof
 Outstanding features include two steeplechase courses; sloping lawn fronting the grandstand with its lowest point five feet above the track; quarters for the exclusive Delaware Turf Club atop grand stand seating 5000; stables for l. GOO horses surrounded by an elec- trically charged fence, an outdoor saddling paddock, and convenient transportation with terminals of two railroads less than 100 yards from the stands. Some five miles of beautiful hedge border the en- trance and parking fields
 Du Pont has assisted in building seven other steeplechase courses but none. in his opinion, compares with Delaware Park. Many of the Is jumps have been modelled after Aintree famed obstacles
 The inner jumping course is a mile in length, with seven fences The other course is mile and three eights, with eight jumps. It is unique in that it leaves the track proper at one point and runs nearly a half-mile into the country.
 Several S10,000 Stakes
 Although the jumps were built last fall, steeplechasing races prob- ably will be limited at the first meeting. Du Pont is desirious that the turf and fences be in perfect condition. He figures the surface needs at least another year before it can stand the strain of daily racing.
 Bidding for the best horses, Du Pont has outlined program which calls for several $10,000 stakes, nc race with a value of less than S1,- 900, and a $1,200 feature event on days which stakes are not sched- uled.
 The number of stakes depends on the length of the meeting. Right now the track is limited to 20 days but a bill is before the Legislature which would add another 10.
 Edward Burke, veteran head of Havre de Grace, has been named general manager. John Purcell Tur- ner is racing secretary.

There are many things I do not understand about the business of boxing. There are very few things I do understand about the business.
 For example: Pedro Montanez, a fighting little demon from Puerto Rico, soundly thrashes the world lightweight champion, Lou Ambers. in a ten round bout and wins the decision of the referee and judges. Does that make Pedro champion? It does not.
 It seems Ambers is only the light weight king when he weighs 135 pounds or less. No one weighing more than the lightweight limit can take the title away from him. Al Weill. Ambers manager, saw to it that Montanez came in above

Habits Of the Woodpecker

The red-headed woodpecker feeds
almost exclusively off insects and
grubs burrowed in wood. and CHS.
els out homes in trees and poles.
Nature is bountiful in equippine
woodpeckers. Their beaks are hard
as steel, keen as razors They have
long, toes to grip precarious sur
faces. Their tails are spiked for
support, as well as balance. Even
their tongues are cylindrical, point
ed and barbed, so they can scrape
food from small holes. Generally
farmers are down on the red-headed
species. 1t sometimes augments
its insect diet with eggs, corn from
ears growing in fields, brains OF
young fowl, which it scoops out after
splitting the unfortunate chicks

Lowly Origin of Platinum

When platinum was first discov-
cred by Europeans in 1888, it was
thought to be of no value and was
called "%platina," which means Tit
tie silver" The metal was found by
Spaniards in what Is now: Columbia,
South America. These explorers
sent samples home to their king,
who was evidently q thrifty person.
for he conceived the idea that, since
the platinum was found with gold u
the river sands, 1t might grow into
gold Il soaked q while longer In the
water, reports a White Metal News
letter. Therefore, he ordered that
the metal bs returned 10 the riveI
for further treatment.
