Doped os Sprinter, Just
Losts to Beet Memory
Book in Long Race

BY the Associated Press.
HIALEAH PARK, Fla, Jan. 49,
Dunade. a 6-year -old from Mrs. F.
L. Flanders stable that has been
campaigning in 6-furlong sprints,
fooled the big majority Of more
than 10000 fans here today when
he Just lasted to win the mile-and-
a-furlong Fort Dallas Park Handi-
cap. Under a feathery 103 pounds,
which included Ken McCombs. the
6-year- -old son Of Dunlin kept his
nose in front Of P. L. Kelley's slug
gish starting favorite. Memory
Book. James Emerys Dolly Val was

Pays Handsome Odds.
Dunade, beaten of in the recent
Hialeah Inaugural Handicap, paid
of at $34.50 for a s2-straight ticket.
He struggled to the wire in l:492s
over lightning fast track.
When Memory Book barely missed
getting up in time. 1t marked the
sixth setback in as many events
for the bewildered hackers Of public
choices.
Xavier and Late Pass finished in a
dead heat for fourth position.
Dunade first had to dispose of
Late Pass. which he did after
furlongs. McCombs urged the vet
eran into daylight advantage
around the last bend. Dolly Val
and Memory Book loomed as threats
after the field entered the front
straightaway. Dolly Val faltered,
but Memory Book kept at his task.
his move coming a fraction too late.
Lackawanna Wins Again.
Scoring his second straight tri-
umph, Lackawanna proved much

60 postward at Q to /, but he gal
loped OF with the purse, eight
lengths in the clear. The colt fol-
lowed the pacemaking Erin's Sun to
the last turn. then dashed to the
front with little effort and toyed
with his field. Erin's Sun saved
the place. length better than
Devils Peak. The latter was losing
favorite No. 7.

Konson Aims to Avenae
December Defect in
Contest Thursday

Wrestling fans will be served more
villainy Thursday night at Turner's
Arena, with none other than that
demon from Nebraska. Ernie Dusek,
meeting Joe Cox. the Kansas Krash-
er, in the feature battle.
After having watched Krasher Kox
annihilate Alan Eustace with a
paralyzing knee uppercut, fans are
convinced Joe is all set to gain re.
venge for the defeat plastered on
him last December at the arena by
Dusek.
This rematch is by popular de-
mand of fans who thought Cox the
better man in the ring that night.
At present Dusek is looked upon
as the king Of the villains. now that
the Golden Terror has left these
parts, and If any one Is running
Ernie a close second it is Joe Cox
The Cox-Dusek feud didn't start
with last December's match, which
incidentally. drew a near-capacity
crowd. The boys have been nurs-
ing a grudge for the last several
years, and when they meet there
is nothing clean about their
wrestling.

Myer Show 10 Pack
All 10 Be Desired
By Equine Fans
RooseveIts and Autry,
Cowboy Movie Hero,
Will Add Color

Prospects of seeing President and
Mrs. Roosevelt, Gene Autry, the
cowboy movie hero, and other ma
tionally known figures all together
promise to attract the largest crowd
of the season to the Presidents
Birthday Horse Show at the Fort
Myer Riding Hall January "a and
as. Everything the fans and the ex-
hibitors could wish for has been
carded for this annual event, which
is becoming the high light Of the
winter horse show season.
Besides the usual classes for crack
high jumpers and sleek hunters,
two hair-raising exhibitions by the
Fort Myer cavalry are on the pro-
gram each night and horse folk al
ready are schooling their mounts to
do things they've never done before
in order to be ready for the go as
you like" class, which is certain to
supply an extra amount OF crazy
antics.
First Lady May Ride.
Mrs. Roosevelt, who usually re-
stricts her riding to the local parks,
might feel the urge of competition
and ride in the show, as she did two
winters ago. Whether or not Mr..
Autry will show his wares in actual
competition is not known definitely
at this time, but it Is hoped he will
give the youngsters a sample Of
the rough and ready antics that
have made him the most idolized
cowboy since Tom Mix.
At any rate the show will not lack
for classy performances. The classes
are calculated to draw all of WASH
ington's best equine regulars, not to
mention worthy group from Vir-
ginia and Maryland The courses
in both the jumping and hunting
classes are sitter than usual and
the thought of struggling for blue
ribbon alone is certain to bring out
the best riders hereabout.
Comedy Is Promised.
Six classes and an exhibition are
on each nights program. Open
jumpers. open hunters. green hunt
ers, fault and out, park or road
hacks, working hunters and the
go AZ you like" class are chief
among these. The last named is
open to all and undoubtedly will
provide the most laughs since
Freddy Hughes won the comic cos
tune class at the Washington show
last summer. None will be allowed
to school over or even see the course
until entering the ring. The trick
is to take all of the jumps in the
least possible time with the fewest
faults. Also. no jump must be taken
twice. although rider may choose
his own path around the course.
The only thing definite about the
course is the starting and finishing
points. Otherwise it's up to the
individual.
Entries close midnight Monday
January "a. Schooling sessions will
be held Monday and Tuesday after
noon and night, preceding the OPEN
Ing night Of the show. Judges have
not been announced.

Hot Scrap Promised
As Capital Weller,
RumanianM Mix
Phil Convinced He Can
Stop Wild Milo; Good
Supporting Cord

Milo Theodorescu, the romantic
Rumanian who insists on planting
damp, affectionate kisses on all off,
eials after performances, returns to
Turner's Arena tomorrow night for
the avowed purpose of halting Phil
Furr's triumphant march through
welterweight ranks. They tangle in
the l0-round feature of the boxing
program.
Furr, target for rich, mixed
chorus Of Bronx bazoos several
months ago when he laid down his
paint brush and announced plans
tor a comeback, has an impressive
string OF five consecutive victories
10 his credit. He is a slight favorite
over Milo, by virtue of his superior
boxing skill, but Theodorescu will
not want for support, financially or
otherwise.
Those who saw the tinted
invader put the chill on Charley
Gilley 4 few weeks ago still are
buzzing about his zaney style. II
Milo ever had a boxing lesson it
wasn't apparent as he hammered his
hapless opponent into submission
He fought right-handed, then left
handed. He stood up in statuesque
poses and bobbed and weaved la
Dempsey. He led with his left, he
led with his right, he led with his
head-then he wouldn't lead, but
waited for Gilley to come in and
blast him with counterattack. He
was terriffic.
Furr's Right Ready for Milo.
Charley is considered a durable
lad, not one to wilt at harsh look,
but able to stand up and take a
normal amount of punishment, so
when the customers saw his per-
spiration- -drenched frame stretched
on the canvas they Immediately
began wondering If Milo could do
the same to Furr. Some said yes,
but gentleman identified as Phil
Furr said no. He pointed out that
Theodorescu's center rushes were
made to order for the saberlike
Furr left and that his habit of lead
ing with right would draw return
shot from Phil's right that might
put him wholly out of commission.
And the Furr right, incidentally,
Is as good as new. The owner
worried considerably about it in
previous bouts, for it was broken
last year and he naturally favored
1t lest he break it again. But X-rays
have convinced him it will be all
right to let it 60 full force on Milo's
whiskerS tomorrow night, and that
is exactly what he intends to do.
Furr plotted his comeback as care
fully as q general maps an i'm
portant drive. He didn't rush out
of retirement believing for the
champion n three leading chal-
iengers, but decided to work up to
an important fight through series
Of warm-up engagements. The
scheme worked to perfection and
when he goes into action he'll be
ready for gruelling pace.
Conndentially. and don't breath
1t to q soul, but it shapes up as a
lively argument.
Good Supporting Card.

list OF worthwhile preliminary

more in the six-round semihnal.
Vic's younger brother, Eddie, tackles
