there was little slackening in the
punishment he was giving the

An in the fifth round Ray
stepped it up again. He pushed,
rather than punched, Dubs through

waited for the count of nine before
getting to his feet. The second
nine-count he took that round was
fully warranted. however, as Rob-

1t was apparent at the start of

NEW YORK, April 1S.-College
graduates around the race tracks
are few and far between, but don't
be surprised if the trainer who
wins the sixty-eighth Kentucky
Derby on May 2 is a Princeton

years head man in the Greentree

he died so suddenly in 1888.

That son is Shut Out. Equipoise
himself never got up to the Derby.
He was scratched on the eve of
the race in 1881. Shut Out at
least will be given his chance TO
run. Stabbed now at Keeneland.
where he will take his final prep
In the Blue Grass Stakes next
Thursday, he will enter Matt
WINS turf clambake coupled,
with Devil Diver.
At the moment no other stable
is certain to enter two aces i'm
this one race. And don't think
that Shut Out will be sent along
just to keep his mate company.
His 1871 record wasn't quite as
brilliant as that of Devil Divers
but to the student of bloodlines he
is colt who should run faster as
he runs farther. That is important.
Greentree and Gaver will have

Derby :
Renews Tonight

Detroit's newest sport, the
Roller Derby, will reopen tonight

nine-game series. Tonight's match

Ex-Tigers Make Life
Tough for Old Mates

Once again il was a walk that led
ito the run. First up, Bob Harris
walked, advanced to second on a
sacrifice by Gutteridge. and later
scored on timely bingle by Gift.
With a run in the fourth, the
Tigers broke into scoring. II was
lCramer who scored after slashing
la double to center, moving up a
base on Barney McCosky's infield
out. and scoring after Cullenbine
shared Rudy York's long fly ball

BROWNS EVEN 1T
But the Browns retrieved the
run in their half of the fourth.
Beating out a grounder to Eric
McNair in deep short, Laabs was
given life at first base. Then Glenn

from Toledo, poked a harmless
Igrounder to Trucks. who wheeled
and hurled high over McNair's
head at second trying for double
play, Laabs checking at third and
later scoring after McCosky's
catch OF a fly ball off Stephens
bat.
Bloodworth's homer, driven 37s
feet into the stands in right CEN

on base. accounting for two scores
and tying the count. Trucks had

TRUCKS UNsTEADIED
Were IL not for this twist In the
contest, Virgil Trucks might have
won his first pitching assignment
in the majors. AS ii was, the young
Buffalo recruit. unsteadied by the
break, was forced to leave the
game, and Charley Fuchs finished.
Chef Laabs. another former De-
troiter, bagged two singles and
personally scored two of the tai
lies that spelled defeat for Del

ROUND OF SPARRING

hoSAND VT 81
That didn't seem to be the case
at the start of the fight, however,
as Robinson revealed very little.
The first round was little more
than a get-acquainted period.
Lulled into a sense of false Sc
curity, perhaps, Dubs forgot his
caution momentariiy at the start
of the second round. And his rush.
ing tactics worked as he drove
his dusky opponent against the
ropes and pummeled him.
AS cool and calculating a fighter
as ever pulled on glove, Robin
son just waited his opportunity.
Before the bell rang he had
floored Dubs three times. and the
only question in the minds of the
fans was the number of rounds it
would take him to finish it.
LETS AND A RIGHT
The Harlem Hurricane has a.
tricky habit of leading with his
left and then hooking it before the
motion is completed. 1t was this
blow that floored Dubs the first
two times, once for a count of
five, then of four. Feinting with
his left, Robinson threw right
that sent Dubs to the canvas for
and eight-count near the end of
that Stanza.
With Dubs on the back-pedal,
Robinson again counted with that
right at the outset of the third
round. and McClelland again
counted eight before Dubs got up.
Robinson himself went down for
a two count just before the bell,
but il was caused more by his
anxiety to end the fight than BY
the Windsor boys punch.
Wildly throwing a left hook.
Robinson threw himself way off
balance, and the feeble left thrownI
by Dubs upset him more than III
Rocked him down. The Detroit
born Negro was on his feet al

over Dubs was just as great as
