BOSTON, Aug. 16.-The Boston
Braves clipped Luke (the Hot Po-
tato) Hamlin for four hits and as
many runs in the second inning
today and, with the help of effec-
tive 7-hit pitching by Tom Early,
made that enough to beat the Brook
lyn Dodgers, Al.
There was one away in the Braves
big inning when Eddie Miller
bounced a double off the left field
fence. Another two-bagger to left
by Al Roberge scored the first run,
and a base on balls and a single by
Farley then filled the bases. Vet
eran Johnny Cooney picked this
timely moment to wallop a base
clearing triple to right center.
The Braves got only one other
safety off Hamlin. and only two
more off Tom Drake and Hugh
Casey. who came in after Luke had
been lifted for a pinch-hitter. But
meanwhile Farley was spreading the
Dodgers seven hits over four innings,
with three double plays helping him
out of as many tight spots.
Brooklyn could bunch its hits

by Pete Reiser, a walk to Ducky

Stretch Speed
In Thick Mud
Owner Wright Scores
Double as Markell
Annexes Spinowoy
BY SID FEEDER,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N. Y,
Aug. 16.-Whirlaway made his de-
tractors eat their words today.
After two mediocre efforts, War
ren Wright's Kentucky flier spotted
two other rivals 18 pounds and 13
lengths in the 72d running OF the
Historic Travers Stakes, and then
high-balled right past them in the
gooey mud of Saratoga'S stretch to
win the Nations oldest horse race
in common gallop.
He did it the hard way, with a
record crowd Of 24,131 looking on,
and with his victory made it quite
an afternoon for Owner Wright and
Trainer Ben Jones.
Before Whirly gained the $4,000
check for his work in the Travers
his stablemate, Markell, captured
the 50th running of the Spinaway
Stakes for 2-year-old fillies, there
by ending the unbeaten record Of
Alf Vanderbilt's Petrify, which fin
ished third. This one added $8,125
to the Wright bankroh.
Predicted Whirly's Defeat.
Going into today's race. there were
all kinds of prophets around the
Spa foreseeing the end of the
remarkable record Whirlaway has
piled up since he charged to the
head of the 3-year-olds in the Ken
lucky Derby. He had won the
triple crown and, with today's sue
cess, had boosted his earnings to
s275 ,636 for two years of racing.
But he lost the Arlington Classic
to Attention three weeks ago, and
he barely beat War Relic here just
10 days back.
Attention wasn't on hand today.
He was back in the barn with an
ailing leg.
But Sam Riddle sent out Lord
Kitchener which, like Whirly, is a
son of Blenheim. And William Du-
pont named Fairymant, speedy son
of Man OWar.
Each had to carry only 1l2 pounds
while Whirly lugged 100. And it
was supposed to be handicap for
the champ to have ALI Robertson
on his back in place of his favorite
Eddie Arcaro, who is grounded by
suspension.
Far Behind Entering Stretch.
For a mile and an eight In this
Ia mile grind, they had the wacky
whizz- bang beaten.
While Fairymant and Lord Kitch-
ener took off with rush, and at
one time led Whirlaway by 13
lengths, Robertson just stayed back
and let 'em CO. At the mile mark
Whirly still was nine lengths out of
it. Rounding the turn, however,
Robbie gave him the word.
He was a mud-covered lightning
streak as he went past Lord Kitch-
ener. Then he breezed past Fairy
mant and Won off by himself by
three lengths in gallop without
Robertson once using the bat And
he ran straight down the track to
hit the wire in 2:0545 for the run,
while Fairymant came home two
lengths in front of Lord Kitchener.
Trainer Jones made one change
in his pride and joy for this race.
Because of the mud he braided
Whirlys long tail up short, so it
wouldn't pick up added weight in
the heavy going.
But it seemed Whirly could have
been dragging a trench mortar
around. The bettors knocked him
down to $3.50 for 50 at the win
windows.
