Malicious, Famed
Race Horse, Dead

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 4. (UP)
Here comes Malicious!," famous
cry of race track fans the country
over, now belongs to history.
The grand old champion is dead
at the advanced age of II years.
Mrs. Hills Hubbard, owner of the
pastures Malicious last enjoyed,
announced last night.
A son of Omar Khayyam, the
durable galloper first went to the
races in 1929. And long after his
contemporaries left the turf, Mali
cious was still lettering through two
mile races until the last half mile,
when he would come roaring into
the finish a winner with the fami-
liar cry-"Here comes Malicious!"
ringing across the track.
Malicious was an unimpressive
looking horse, mule-eared, string
tailed, sWaybacked and generally
droppy in appearance. He followed
the country fairs until 1884, when
at the age of eight he was taken in
had by an eX-cowboy trainer, Lon
ME Copenhaver.
For the next five years, Copen-
haver used his talents to bring out
the dramatic finish which the slow
starting horse could put on to thrill
his followers.

MUCH TRAINING
Many of you will recall Ben Tin

of another day-Frank' uncle and
idol. Back on the reservation, Uncle
Ben spent marry hours teaching
the young Indian lad his deceptive
sinker pitch, the same pitch that
is now battling Pacific Coast bats

Whether or not Franks name is
some day written in baseball his
tory beside those of other famous
Indian athletes like Jim Thorpe
Chief Bender, Jim Levi and his
uncle, Frank has already earned
place beside those great athletes
who have overcome the handicap
of a crippling injury.
When a boy, a shotgun blast
struck him full in the left shoulder
and he was left for dead. And yet
today, Frank is an all-around
athlete-adept at baseball. football,
basketball, and boxing, and stand
out at them all.
The Seattle Rainiers have Frank
to thank for a perfect pitching rec
ord. And our linotype man and
radio announcer have Uncle Ben
to thank as the influence which
kept the name of Squatscheesquat-
loe from troubling their dreams
