Victory for Sponiord;
Becoming Citizen

: Claudio Villar. the Spanish heavy
weight who meets AL Hart, husky
War College Negro soldier, in the 10
round feature match on Monday
nights boxing program at Griffith
Stadium, has convinced ring fans
who have watched his workouts this
week that he will give Hart a lot of
trouble.
Villar was impressive against Spar
ring Partner Teddy Wint yesterday
at Turner's Arena. He hasn't done
much talking about what he'll do to
Hart. mostly because he still has a
lot of trouble with the English Ian
guage and because he's a modest.
quiet fellow outside the ring who
gives the impression he'd go a block
out OF his way to keep out of. a fight.
Claudio a Crowd Pleaser.
Oddly enough, Villar probably will
have the moral support of Monday
nights customers, although they may
be cautious about wagering on him.
In two matches here he lost to Lee
Savold when his nose was broken
and dropped split decision to Bob
Pastor after flooring him. Both were
good scraps, with Villar putting up
the brand of action that's pleasing to
the customers. In Baltimore he beat
Buddy Walker in a fight regarded as
one of the best ever in the Monu-
mental city.
Hart may be the money favorite
by a slim margin off his record of
two wins and draw here and his 10
wins in his last 81 battles. The 20
pound pull he figures to have also
may help.
Staff Predicts Knockout.
Villar finished his workouts YES
terday against Wint by stepping
tour steaming rounds. during which
ne displayed a snappy left hook
with plenty OF weight behind it. His
staff, headed by Manager Pierre
Gruen, is predicting he'll win by
Knockout in the fifth, sixth or sew
enth round.
Incidentally. Villar took out his
first citizenship papers here two
weeks ago. He got out of Europe in
1899 just before the real trouble
started. Chased from France back to
Spain by the Nazis, he later was
shipped to Cuba with the aid of
several Cuban bigwigs, who saw him
take the Cuban heavy title last
month by stopping Lozaro Dios.

Betting Record
Seen as Fleet.
Whir|y Run
Aces Headline Double
Feature at Belmont;
Count Again Cinch
BY SID FEEDER,
Associated Press Sports Writer

NEW YORK, June 5.-Racing's S
glamour boys-Count Fleet and
Whirlaway-strut their stuff in a
double-header at Belmont Park to-
day that threatens the brand-new
world betting record.
The Count. already the winner of
the Derby, Preakness and Withers,
is trying to become the sixth triple
crown champion by adding the Bel
mont Stakes to his Kentucky and
Maryland triumphs-and he figures
to be cinch to do it against the
two $3.50 steppers entered against
him.
He'll also be out to boost his bank
roll over the quarter million mark
with the Belmont's top stake of
approximately $4,000. The Fleet
already has earned $214,960.
Whirly, making his first start since
injuring leg six months ago in New
Orleans, comes back in the Henry
of Navarro Handicap, a 6-furlong,
$4,000 dash he won two years ago. If
he can make that win stick this
time, little Mr.. Big Tail will raise
his record bank account to about
$565 900.
Stablemate His Rival
But he has tough haul this trip.
especially as he is packing l26
pounds and will give away UP TO Is
pounds to some in the field OF l3,
including his stablemate Sun Again;
Mrs. Tilyou Christopher's sprint ace.
Doublrab, and Mrs. T. D. Grimes
speedy With Regards. In addition,
the three-Quarter- mile route hardly
gives him time to throw his dis
tance-running legs into high.
AS has been the case all spring,
Count Fleet might just as we'll be
alone for all his opposition. Two
other hay-stokers-Fairly Manhurst,
owned by William Dupont, and Des-
eronto, from Beverley Bogerts barn
are entered for the mile and
half
But as far as the winners end is
concerned, they are just out for the
air-and the $4,000 second money.
The Count so has scared off the rest
OF the 3-year-olds that for the Sec
ond straight time the fourth place
purse is going begging. Two weeks
ago in the Withers Belmont Park
couldn't give away the $3.50 for
fourth and this time it amounts to
$1,000
Minimum Odds Likely.
Inc chances were that the Hertz
hurricane would be knocked down
to the legal minimum of l to 20 in
the betting. And if he came home
a-winging-the if in this case
being purely academic-he would
join the select set that includes Sir
Barton. Gallant Fox, Omaha, War
Admiral and Whirlaway on the
trlple-croWn winning roster.
He also would move in with Sir
Barton as the only other horse ever
to tack the Withers onto the big
three.
His chances of breaking the
2:57&4 Belmont track record for the
distance or the 2:28a5 stake record
set by War Admiral a half dozen
years ago apparently depend on just
how fast Jockey Johnny Longden
asks him to go.
In addition to the double header
OF the Belmont and the Henry of
Navarro Handicap, today's eight
race card includes the $4,000 Ma
tional Stallion Stakes for 2-year-
olds which has drawn a field of
seven headed by Hal Price Headley's
Megogo. With these three heats
leading the parade, the betting rec
ord of s2,699,153, set only last Mon
day, is in danger.

Bluege is demoting Slim Jim, but
leaving him in the lineup, princi-
pally because he represents the Mats

as much as his attitude Never a

his work with all the enthusiasm of
a hearse driver and Bluege is say
ing: There just doesn't seem to be

About all 1 can do is drop him down

Bluege is fond of the Mats spirit,
with Vernon the lone exception. In
his third season as Washington's
regular first baseman, Mickey has
suffered a miserable start and he is
showing no signs of pulling out OF 1t.
Compared with Vernon, sphinx
could be arrested for disturbing the
peace.
Spence Is Mark for Bridges.
Gene Moore. normally an outfleld-
er, has been working out at first
base, as has Outflelder Red Marion,
but Bluege is indicating he will stick
with Mickey at first even at the risk
OF being stuck with him. He is, after
all, a better fielder than Moore or
Marion, but Ossie may be excused
for wishing he'd blend an occasional
hit into Washingtons attack.
Stan Spence was no stick sensa-
ton last night as the Mats dropped
a 81 decision to Detroit and skidded
into third place before 14,800 wit
nesses at Griffith Stadium. Spence
was famed four straight times by
Tommy Bridges, marking the Sec
ond time this season Stan has struck
out on four successive occasions.
Left-handed batters are supposed
to be at their best against right
handed pitching, but you can't prove
it by Spence. He was helpless
against the right-handed Bridges
and the other pitcher who famed
him four times was the Yankees
Spud Chandler, also right-hander.
Tigers Grab Game in Ninth.
The Mats fashioned their lone run
off Bridges in the third inning when
George Case raped hit through
the box, stole second and scored on

ran for him and was nudged along
to second on Joe Hoover's sacrifice

CHICAGO, June 5.-Billy Herman,
the Brooklyn Dodgers flashy in
fielder who got in l55 games last
year-more than any other player
in the National Leagues ready to
continue in the iron man role, espe-
cially since his five weeks of rest
at third base.
Herman is back in his natural
habitat at second base, where he has
turned in one startling play after
another to pull the Buns out of
ticklish spots and help keep them
buoyed in the National League pen
nant race.
Honestly. I had a picnic during
the five weeks over at third" said
the veteran who is in his twelfth

of course, pinch myself once every
two or three innings to be sure I'd
stay awake. A fellow could play
there for 40 years. I ought to be
good for the whole season after that

Herman, who went to the Dodgers
two years ago after 10 seasons with
the Cubs, is breezing along in the
same sensational form he displayed
during his big years with the Chi
cagoans in the middle '30s when he
was hooking up with Shortstop Billy
Jurges in dazzling double-plays.
Herman's biggest batting year with
the Cubs was in 1885 when he
notched 341. But now he is skipping
along at a .347 clip-fourth best
mark in the majors-and is one run
shy of leading the National League
in runs batted in with 80.
