BY NED BROWN NEA Staff COrrespondent

Harry F. Sinclair was a high roller in everything he tackled =. dressed and looked the part ', Oil Man Sinclair, who came from nowhere in nothing flat, loved to gamble. He even backed the Federal league.
 Sinclair got into racing through oelng introduced to Sam Hildreth. ConceSSionaire Harry Stevens suggested that the famous train- CT mark this program. Sinclair won so much money that he urged Hildreth to form the partnership that was the fabulous Rancocas Stable.
 No string ever came as close to cornering the turf as did the RancocaS in the 20. Everytime one of their better horses was tea t1n. Sinclair and Hildreth would buy the winner, regardless of the price, then proceed to win out. In addi- tion to the swiftest horses, Rancocas had the most Skillful jockeys, La- verne Fator and Earl Sande.
 Among the Rancocas stars was "A4AOS-AAOSASA 6CF1 WAlkiCI OA IIlc 1923 Kentucky Derby and biggest uioney-winner up to his retire ment with $3l3.639. Grey Lag, Little Chief and Cirrus copped the Brook lyn Handicap. Silver Fox was rated the most formidable gray that raced in America until the cur rent First Fiddle came bouncing along. Sinclair and Hildredth owned Mad Halter, Bud Lerner and Che- ops.
 One story has it that Sinclair entered racing after winning 8 fortune from Harry Payne Whit ney playing cards enroute to New York following a running of the Kentucky Derby. Whitney wanted men like Sinclair in racing, suggest cd that the wager be paid off in horses. Certainly, Sinclair start ed with Whitney stock.

CoIey WeIeh Loses To Reddick

Providence, R. l., July 11.-(UP)- Though outweighed nearly seven pounds, the crack Negro middle weight Joe Reddick of New York held a win today over New England champion Coley Welch.

the Swear old down in front of Papyrus in the $l00,O0O interna- tional match race at Belmont.
 Hildreth would enter a $l0,OOO horse in a $2500 claiming race. Sinclair and Hildreth would bet and bid the horse Up to high fig ure, the over-money going into a stake the following afternoon, whereupon Rancocas would shoot in a flier and cop the rich prize, with its owners wagering on an- other winner.
 In Its peak season Rancocas &C., counted for 88 races before going to Saratoga in August. The string won five in one day.
 MADE IT AN EVEN $l5O,OOO
 Sinclair had dropped $l48, GOO at roulette at Saratoga Springs, when one of the proprietors, a Kelker brother, foolishly asked him how far he wanted U go. This vexed him to such an extent that he wrote out a check for $150,O00-$2.000 for the croupier and sailed for Europe the fol- lowing day, where the blagger- gasted Deauville and Cannes dealers with prodigious betting.
 Sinclair won vastly more than he lost, had the Midas touch. His phenomenal luck failed to desert him even in the case of the ill., fated Federal League, where everybody else lost their shirts. He owned the Newark franchise. pur- chased valuable property in Harrison for a park site. When the league folded he leased the property. realizing & profit.
 Sinclair lost interest in racing with the deaths of Payne and Harry Payne Whitney and when Josh Cosden dropped out.
 Spectacular Harry Sinclair is crowding 68 now and confining his gambling to black gold.
 He can't lose there.
