BALDWIN PREPS TAKE 'H|LL' LEAD
Overtime Victory Over Tribunes Ends 37=33;
 Texans Win 29=25

Four points was all that separated the winners from losers of basket ball games in the Washington Park league last night, as the Baldwin Props eased into first place with a hard-earned 37 to B overtime win over the Tribunes. In the other game, the Brooklyn Texans defeated the Sacred Hearts 29 to 25 on the margin of better foul shooting, each team scoring eleven field goals, while the winners made good on seven free throws against three for the Hearts.
 The south Waterbury outfit lost no time starring but the Tribes stayed close with GA and 15-10 scores at the quarter and half, and then caught up with the Props 20- 20 going into the fourth period, in which both teams scored ten points apiece to finish the regular time all even at 30-30. In the overtime Al Monti, Paul Clear and Leece scored for the Props, against field goal by Willie White. Summary:

and Belmont tracks, advocated a similar rule several years ago. But his suggestion was tabled in the east. Vanderbilt maintained that for the protection of the public, owners should be made to declare their intentions. If they wanted to exercise their horses in a race, that was all right. provided they let the customers in on the news.
 The new /ruling at Santa Anita will be a tough one to enfo. ce. No one denies that. After all. horse can't talk and there is always the chance that even the most honest and competent trainer will consider an ailing horse fit. And there is no doubt but that the stewards will make few mistakes, and that oc- casionally the innocent will suffer. But the rule is a sound one and should be kept in the boks. It can't help but put the check on owners and trainers and jockeys saving" a horse for "spot" when the purse and odds, especially the latter, are better.
 In short, it's a rule calculated to increase the honesty of racing, and that's what racing can stand a lot of,

Today's Sport Parade
BY HENRY McLEMORE United Press Staff Correspondent

Arcadia, Cal, Dec. 24-(UP)-A horse players wants are simple.
 Just about all he asks is an hon. est to goodness run for his money.
 That means horse that is try ing and jockey that wants him to.
 When you stop to think how much the horse player spends each year trying to get this, you would like to feel that the tracks do all they can to provide him with it.
 The fact is, though, the tracks don't. If all the money that has been lost on horses that weren't trying" were available to the gov- ernment, the United States not only could build a navy for each ocean, but one for each of the Great Lakes, the Rogue, Brazos and Chat tahoochee rivers, and still have enough ships left over to give one to each congressman for door stop.
 However, there is a ray of sum- shine for the horse player, at the @Rnta Anita track, at least. Through &S energ etic, red-tape-cutting chairman, Jerry Giesler, the Cali fornia racing commission has noti- fled the Santa Anita officials, the owners and trainers of horse stahled there for the meeting that opens Saturday, the jockeys and all others concerned, that from now on when a horse is sent to the post he must be sent for but one pur- pose-to win the race.
 
 There must be no more saddling of unfit horses, Geisler has said. If they have any of the 10000 and one ailments that beset the thorough bred they must be kept in bed. or the thing that horse is silly enough to accept as a bed.
 The day of the "tightener" and the "freshener" is out at Santa Anita. This business of running a horse in race just to give him the exercise and workout he needs to condition him for a genuine effort the following Tuesday, is finished. Legally, anyway.
 From the owners down, the word has gone around that the commis- sion intends to see to 1t that every horse in every race is ridden out. There will be no passing of the buck. The owner is forbidden to tell the trairner to take 1t easy on the horse. the trainer is forbidden to give such instructions to the jockey. and the jockey has been told he must ignore such ii1struc- tions if received. And the stewards --who will be given an eye test by the commission today-have been ordered to detect and report trans gressorg--or else As for the owners, trainers and jockeys-they have been told that violation of the rule means a 0ne~way ticket to some- where else.

 This is no more than we richly deserve but one glimpse at history proves that you did not comply.
