HOPPE DEFEATS
 KINNEY 5O-12'
Great Champion, Is Still Shaky From Flu, Has
 High Run of '

Chicago, Jan. 30 = (U.P) - Will lie Hoppe entered the third round of his game-a-day defense of the world three-cushion billiards title today after demonstrating his remarkable precision by holding his second op- ponent to 12 points.
 His match with Len Kenney of Chicago ran to 36 innings last night before Hoppe won, 50 to 12, because he still was shaky from the severe attack of influenza which caused him to abandon the challenge match against Jake Schaffer. Jr., of Chicago just before the world tour nament. But, although he was un- able to score heavily himself during the first 26 innings, Hoppe succeed ed in keeping his opponent baffled by leaving him few good shots.
 Hoppe scored 32 billiards in the last 10 innings against Kenney and scored high run of seven in the 33rd.
 This was the most crushing de- feat imposed upon any contestant since the tournament began all though it did not equal the best game mark of g innings held by Hoppe and Welker Cochran, San Francisco.
 Tonight Hoppe meets Irving Crane of Livonia, N. Y.
 Cochran last night defeated Paul Levin of Chicago, 50-44 in 58 in nings, both scoring high runs of seven.
 Schaefer defeated Tiff Denton of Kansas City, 50-44 in 51 innings; Art Rubin of New York beat Herb Peterson of St. Louis, 50 B in 50 things, and Crane beat Clarence Jackson of Detroit, 50-35 in 46 in- nings.

CROSBY COURT
 COMBINE MEETS HARTFORD HERE
Game on Tonight at WiIby Gym - LeavenWOrth
 Loses to Wildcats

High school basketball fans in this city and vicinity will have a chance to see team that has not shown in Waterbury for years, when Hartford Public High, coach ed by Johnny Newell, comes to town tonight for its second game of the season with Bill Schofield's net-swishers. Set for 8 o'clock at the Wifby gym, the game will be pre- ceded by a o'clock preliminary.
 Another interesting angle of the game is that there is an advance sale of tickets for IS cents each, five cents of which will go to the 1941 Infantile Paralysis campaign. General admission at the door will be 35 cents
 Earlier in the season, Crosby de- feated Hartford Public on the lat ter's floor, in a close game which may be repeated tonight with either team winning.
 Yarnell and AnauskaS scored IS points for the Wilby Reserves last night in A to Ii victory over Leavenworth Seconds.
 Wilby B, Tech 28
 Wilby'S basketball Wildcats won another game, this time, as expec- ted at the expense of Leavenworth's s hard-playing hoopmen, who, how ever, gave Wilby quite a tussle in the second half, before losing by a fire points margin 28 to B. Wilby had l0-1 edge in no time after the game started, increased it to 20-12 at half time before Caisse, Santopietro and Pannone found the hoop for enough points to put the Tech lads back in the ball game.

in the affirmative. Of course, as my friend pointed out, Van Dusen may not deserve too much credit for an occasional No" there always being the chance that MT. Mayer, not hav- ing heard it in so long, considers the word obsolete.
 Great Memory
 But the most remarkable thing about this Van Dusen chap" the fellow in the vest said, ''is his menl- ory. It's hard to believe, but ne knows the names and faces of all the horses in the Mayer collection. ;
 If this is true, and I must say doubt it, then Van Dusen could spot an elephant cards and spades in a remembering contest. Because MT Mayer owns nearly all of the horses in the world. Since he took up rac- ing three or four years ago, he has purchased horses as some men dc neckties and socks. No one knows how many hundreds of thousands of dollars he has poured out fol horse-hesh. His barns sprawl all over Santa Anita. Rosa Bonheur would need five easels and ten gallons o1 paint to do a picture of them. He has them from everywhere. There are Hunters Moon and Orange River from England. eBautiful Il from the Argentine. Two Ton Tony from Australia. MT. Mayer is saie to have friends in all parts of tht world who have been commissioned to buy and ship the horses they see
 In the Santa Anita press box 2 wag, reading in the paper of three ships sunk by submarines, sighed and said:
 That means Mayer will have fewer horses to feed. He certainly must have had a horse or two or each of those boats"
 Famous Sire
 In addition to his racing stock Mayer has two stock farms where mares and stallions and foals roam the valleys an dhillSides. His latest and most important-importatior is Beau Pere, Australia's greatest sire. The Mayer stable has nom!- mated no fewer than seven thor oughbreds for the $199,O00 Santa Anita handicap.
 And Van Dusen knows all of this stock by name and face. Not only knows that, but the sires and dams of al lthe horses, what condition they are in, how old they are. how fast they can run. This is prodi. gious feat, when you remember tha' horses faces have lot in common They all are horse-faced. They don't have dimples and freckles and pug noses and cupid bow mouths anc widows peaks and receding chins.
 Until Van Dusen came along MT Mayer had acute trainer trouble All of Van Dusen's predecessor! seemed to get lost when surrounded by allthis horse flesh. But Van Dus- en, fellow who is about as gabby as gateleg table, set to work tc organize this vast stable and put il on a winning basis. He has done wonders in a short time, and around the track there is feeling that he will give Mayer what he deserves for the money and time he has put into racing-one of the great stables of the country, and great in more than numbers.

Demaret, Snead "Hot' For Western Open


 Phoenix, AriZ., Jan. 30-UP)- Defending champion Jimmy Det- maret and long-driving Sam Snead today topped a list of the nations leading golfers scheduled to take part in the 72-hole $5,000 Western Open-the first major tourney for the touring professionals on their eastward swing after a month of competition on the Pacific Coast which begins tomorrow.

 If Shot Put does no win the long distance race Saturday, you may get rid of him with the other three,' said the Chicago woman to her attorney.
 Shot Put won the race and went on to capture most of the mara thons for which it was nominated earned $72,945-proved to be the champion long distance runner of the year.
 Joseph E. Widener sold Shot Put to Mrs. Evans here last winter for $2500. Shipped to Illinois, the horse failed because it ran in short events.
