Sac Paulo is the second city in

made last year, it contains more
than 100000 people.
Sac Paulo is in Southern Brazil.

Rio de Janeiro is the capital of

boys who put their money on Willie

squlrming in their chairs today
wondering whether the master had

Their doubts began when Hoppe
dropped his first game in SO con-

Welker Cochran, San Francisco vet

when Hoppe barely edged out Allen

inning tussle. Today The champion,

By HENRY MCLEMORE

LOS ANGELES, Feb. Is UP)-
This is positive proof that Robert
Burns was right when he said the
best laid plans of mice and men
go this way, that way and hay
wire.
Explanation;
Thanks to Leigh Battson's sec
retary, who talked to Leigh Bait
son, who talked to Charley Strub,
who talked to a groom, who talked
TO Jerry Giesler, permission was
granted me to stand with Red Pal
mer at the start of yesterdays
$4,000 Santa Anita derby.
A very unusual grant. Why? Be-
cause Red Palmer is the man who
sends the horses away at Santa
Anita. He is the cold -blooded. gim-
let-eyed gent who stands in the
little stand by the stall gates and
lets 'em get away quick or holds
'em UP. More races are won at the
start than at the finish. Don't
question me, please. That's the
truth. Nine times out of 10 the
horse that gets away right pro-
viding he has the stuff is the horse
that wins Many a race is won
by bum because a good hores got
knocked off his STRIDE at the break
Now, my aim. when 1 went up
with Red Palmer at the start
Of the derby, was TO give you a
hair-raising story of the start Of
a rich race. Those closest to the
races had told me that nothing
equaled the start for drama They
gave me this sort of thing jockeys
get mean and tough for the $1,000
cut in the stake. OLD jockeys work
ing on the young ones with all the
angles this side Of pagoda. The
horses are nervous. as if sensing
a superior test. The starter on edge
because he must not fail to get
clean break when $4,000 is riding
for the owner and over 100000 for
the bettors.
Well, here starts the decline and
fall of my story. From now ON it
goes downhill and 7 can't help il.

Today's Sport Parade

From the moment the horses came
on the track developments worked
overtime for an anticlmaX. / walk
ed up the track to where the derby
was to start. I introduced myself
to Starter Red Palmer with a Bar
rymoreish sort of flourish. He gave
me strict newsreel acknowledge
ment: "How'ya Henry? Here the
horses come so let's get EN- off.
I followed Red into the gallows-
like little structure where the
starters do their work.
The horses minced up to the
stalls Red turned to an assistant.
III push the button once more
and try cut the damn gate" There
was a little buzz and ring and
Palmer. "Okay, they work, so get
EN- in and We'll get the field off"
This casual approach to one of
Americas great stakes was little
too much for ME. So I turned TO
Red and this is what l said: Guess
those boys coming in on those
horses are pretty nervous, huh?
Guess you're kinda fidgety too,
aren't you Red?'
While I was saying this to Pal
mer. Transfigure threw Longden
off his back and Fairymant tore
through the starting gate and
banged Moose Peters against the
side of the contrivance Take your
time gettin' ON, Johnny" Palmer
said. Walk him around till you
feel all right, Moose" Harry Rich
ards made Staretor jump little
and in a quiet voice Palmer said,
Put ycur whip down Harry and
take il easy"
Palmer turned to me and when
I say turned to me I don't mean
that because he had one eye cooked
on the l6 horses lined up in the
gate. The old Jocks take it quite
easy" he said. And the young
ones are so scared they don't even
make i chirp."
In space that midget'S
breath is held Palmer forgot all
about me. Get his head in. Long
den" ne called. .Straighten him
up. Balaski."
AS the "Balaski" name rolled off
his tongue Palmer pushed the but
ton that sounded the bell that
sent them off. In lone line l6 fid-
getty. funny horses jumped out
head to head, legs driving.
An assistant starter looked up
from the muddy track and said:
Red. that's a good one" Thanks
Jim Red said and climbed down
the little steps.
That's a pretty poor punch line
tc end a story on, isn't it? But
that's the way it all happened and
I think that's the way ought to
tell it. If you think should warm
ish the truth wire me care of Sher-
WIN Williams.
