Bi,1eIiCh Defeat
SweIIs Field for
Preakness Event

LOUISVILLE. Ky, May ). (UP)-
The three year old race that was
considered a closed case only two
days ago opened as wide as the
doors of a blue grass country barn
today as six of the horses who ran
in the Kentucky Derby headed for
Baltimore and the second race of
Americas Big Three - the Freak
ness.
Instead of a small, close contest
the Pr2akneSS now becomes a large,
loose affair which may draw as
many as II starters. For Bimelech,
the colt who was hcralded as
second Man O. War. has been beaten
and nov other owners and other
horses have found the courage to
run AGAINST him for the rest of the
year instead of staying in their
stables
The chief contender who shipped
out today tOr the rich Maryland
fixture was Gallahadion, the sur
prlsing 5'retch-runner from Milky
way FdlIU WHO "Dll lIlt Ohlu DtTDy
at the second highest price in his
tory-$124 40. With him went Bime-
lcch, Royal Man. Dit, Midland and
Plctor, each hoping to become an
other Head Play or Challedon.
For It was in the Preakness in
1898 that Head Play reversed the
Derby decision on Brokers Tip and
it was in the same race just a year
ago that Challedon conquered John
atoWn. Perhaps the best chance to
turn tho tables of the turf next
week Is held by Bimelech, because
neither his handlers nor his backer
believe ne was beaten Saturday by
a better horse.

Fthe west coast says ii has a kid
who'll hit As flat in the quarter
mile.
Among those certain Grover
Klemmer. l9-year-old University of
California freshman. can't miss are
BrutuS Hamilton. his famous coach,
and Bud Spencer. former. Stanford
world-record holder himself in the
event. and currently sports writer
for the San Francisco News.
The 44O is the toughest race iii
i track.
The terrific strain of maintain
ing a sizzling clip over that dis
tance is the thing SO luminous to
a Quarter-miler. He's apt to pull
and strain. and ultimately break
his rythmn. but Klemmer covers
the grueling sprint in perefect form.
AUTO ACCIDENT COST
CARR HIS CHANCE
Little Bill Carr. who won the
olympic 400-meter championship
in 1882. might have hit the 46-
flat mark had not the flying Penn
sylvanian suffered a broken ankle
! in an automobile accident which
denied him the chance to pare
down Ben Eastman'S world record
of 46.4. only q couple tenths OF a
second below his own figure.
] Like Carr, young Klemmer ap-
| pears 10 be a piece of Well-oiled
! machinery. The first man ever TO
run the quarter in 47-flat as a
freshman, he is a cross in physique
! between Eastman and Jesse Oow-
j ems. He isn't quite as thin as Blaz-
/ ing Ben but he has the same leng-
thy stride. He is bit taller than
Owens but the Ebony Flash's SYM
metry of running muscles.
HITS TERRIFIC
CLIP IN FURLONG
Well built across the chest and
i shoulders he has the stamina to
carry him the route. He also has
the perfect complement of speed.
He can Go the 220 in close to 81
fiat.
Until Eastman and Carr proved
/ the 440 could be a sprint from gun
| 10 tape the accepted technique
was TO hit fast 22O S7acken on
the curve and then set sail in the
: stretch.
! Eastman and Carr brought a
change in tactics. There no longer
IS any preservation of energy.
! Grover klemmer has the will.
! stamina, speed and rythmun.
j That's all you have to have for
a 46-flat quarter.

What interested the federal su-

Raymond's chin dropped a foot
when the warrant Of arrest vas
read 10 him. IL detailed that the

Had he begged the secretarys
