Proposals AnuIyzed

How should recreation be
organized to insure maximum

sport be tennis or merely
sitting in the shade?
The controversy has ragged

favored by District officials
and the Board of Education,
another by the National Capt.

ferent from the existing sys-

GoIIuhudion Beats BimeIech in Derby,
Pays $72.40, Second Best Price in History
Victory by Length
And Half Stuns
$4,000 Fans
BY FRANCIS E. STAN,
Stan Correspondent OF The Star.

LOUISVILLE, KY, May 4.-They
conceded everything to Bimelech of
the blue grass today except the
formality Of running around the
track.
They made the undefeated and all
but invincible pride of Kentucky
meet seven other challengers here
before $4,000 spectators and, in one
OF the prize upsets of the turf. a
rank outsider, Gallahadion, ran
bounding Bimmy into the ground to
win by a length and a half margin
In the 66th Kentucky Derby.
All but completely overlooked BY
the bettors and without his feminine
owner bothering to make the trip
from Chicago to see the brown son
OF Sir Gallahad 3d-C Countess Time
run, Gallahadion clearly whipped
Bimelech, Dit, Midland, Pictor and
three lesser contenders to become
the second longest priced winner
In the history OF the historic event.
Only Donerail Paid More.
Only the hackers of Donerail in
1913 were rewarded more lavishly
than those who bet on the colt
owned by Mrs. Ethel v. Mars of
Chicago. Twenty-seven years ago
Donerail paid $184.90 for 81. Today
Gallahadion, whose odds on the big
electric board as the barrier was
sprung were 20 to /, returned $72 40.
The finish, which astounded the
greatest throng in the history Of the
classic, was Gallahadion by q length
and one-half, Bimelech by a nose
over w. Arnold Hangers Dit and, in
order, Midland. Sirocco, Roman,
Royal Man and last. Marylands
Pictor, fourth choice in the betting
at 1871.
The crowd was stunned as the
orange and white eolors of Mrs,
Mars Milky Way Farms, worn by
httle-known Jockey Carroll Bier
