Down The Stretch
BY GREG JOHNSON.

HIALEAH PARK, Fla, Feb. 90
Every important racing section of
America has its day Of days. In
Maryland, it's PreakneSs Day at
Pimlico; in New York, it's Futurity
Day at Belmont Park; in Kentucky,
it's Derby Day at Churchill Downs,
and here in Florida, it's Widener
Day at beautiful Hialeah.
The S50, 000-added Widener. named
in honor of Joseph Early Widener,
former president of the Miami
Jockey Club, is for 3-year- -olds and
upward and will be staged Saturday
over the 114-mile route.
Widener Day really is a gala oc-
casion here. 1t has the same high
sporting note as has Saratoga in
midsummer plus all the glamour of
Florida.
During the racing hours on Wide
ner Day band of native Seminole
Indians will parade about the in
field. From braves and squaWs to
the tinieSt papoose, they will be
decked in gayly colored clothes.
The Wldener was inaugurated in
1886 and took its place modestly
among America s racing fixtures as
$4,000 stake. The following season
it was elevated to an event of $50
900 added, placing it among the
leading stakes in America.
1t costs $50 to nominate a horse
for the event, which closes almost
four months before its actual run
ming. Weights are announced around
New Year Day, following which own
ers must make an additional pay
ment of 500 on each entry. And
it costs $500 more to send horse to
the post in the Widener.
The Widener is a well-worth- while
prize, for in addition to the $4,000
added by the Miami Jockey Club,
The entry subscriptions, declarations
and starting fees bring the gross
value Of the race to a very tidy sum.
1t is profitable, too, for a horse
even to finish second in the Widener,
for the place award amounts to So
000-considerably more than a thor
oughbred can win in about 80 per
cent of stakes. Third is worth S4,-
900 and fourth $4,000.

was too bad to be true. WHITE
HOPE is consistent and rates a
stout chance.
FOURTH RACE - REMOTE
CONTROL, LLANERO, BE-
Comfy.
REMOTE CONTROL wins
quite often and his recent sec
ond shows him to be in tip-top
condition. The Calumet Farm
color-bearer could top it all the
way. LLANERO was far back
in his last and he hasn't won a
race this year. However the
clockers report him ready for
brackets. BECOMLY is fit and
ready.

is such a chocolate chiller that he is called Little Joe Louis" is favored because of his brilliant record = 20 knockouts in 25 straight victories since he turned professional. Before that he had S0 consecutive wins as an amateur. He climbs through the ropes impelled by the momentum of IA uninterrupted victories since he started tossing leather.
 He is favored also because Vet eran zivic has indicated that he may be slipping. Despite victories over Armstrong, Al Davis and Milt Aron in the last B months, he was held to an upset draw by Lightweight Champion Lew Jenkins, dropped decision to Mike Kaplan and lost the title to Cochrane. He may have faded considerably since that his- toric night of October 4, 1940, when he won the title-the very same night when Robinson made his pro- fessional debut in a preliminary to the Zivic-ArmStrong main event.
 Vowed To "Fix" FitZ
 That night, after knocking out one Joe Echevarria in the second round, Robinson showered quickly and jumped into his civvies SO that he could watch Armstrong belt out Zivic. But he saw, instead, Arm strong battered into bloody helpless ness-his idol and his close personal friend. With tears streaming down his brown cheeks, he vowed that he would "Fix" Zivic if it was the Mst thing he ever did.
 Tonight he tries to keep that VOW. Despite the betting odds and Rob- inson,s record, Zivic has plenty of backing because of the ring-craft he absorbed during more than a de- cade of warning. Also because Frft- zie is a gifted in-1ighter, 8 depart ment wherein slender Robinson is weak. Also, too, because Fritzie will out weight the Negro youngster about 145 to 140 pounds-an advan- tage that may sap Rays stamina. Promoter Mike Jacobs has prom ised the winner a title shot at Red Coctrane in January. And-regard- less of tonight's outcome - Jacobs himself will be 8 winner, because the bout is virtually certain to draw about $45, 900.

THE RECORD TALKS!

HE RECORD TALKS!
 The American Federation of La Dor has long recognized these facts. We have turned our efforts to speed defense production; we have. supplied thousands of skilled men for building and other defense work. More than a year ago we established a policy of no strikes on defense work until all the resources of mediation and con- ciliation have been exhausted.
 Our record on defense strikes speaks for itself. From June through October, 1941, time lost to the defense program by American Federation of Labor strikes has amounted to only two hours per man-year of work. That is 10H minutes in month of work or 30 seconds in an eight-hour day. Time lost by accidents on the defense program is 13 times that lost by American Federation of Labor strikes.

SURVEY

The text of the survey follows:
 Americas defense production is to be doubled, and greatly speeded. Washington is developing new Vic tory Program which will lift defense production from the $60,000,000,000 appropriated before October up to $108,000,000,000, and will speed the defense effort until it uses 50 per cent of the country's entire productive capacity. From today's rate of $18,- 00O,000,000 a year, defense produc- ton will be raised to $5O,000,000,0O0 a year. All but the bare essentials of civilian production will be eliminated, and the hope is to complete this gi- gantic change by next spring.
