Mr.. Ramspeck said he doubted

convinced through messages from
voters that the public wants it t

THE entire effect of Mr.. Truman's

BALTIMORE, Nov. ia couple
of bargain-counter horses, Stymie
and First Fiddle, were to face the
barrier today with more expensive
speedsters in the ninth running of
the Pimlico Special, one of Ameri-
ca s sportiest turf events. The win
ner picks up the entire pot of $25,-
000 Post time was 3 pm.
Fair weather and a crowd of 80
900 fans gave the old Hilltop course
a holiday air, remindful OF Freak
ness day. The infleld was thrown
open and special betting booths
erected there to help care for the
overflow. Betting was expected to
reach s1,500,00o.
Top choice was the Calumet Farm
entry of Armed and Pot O. Luck.
Strategists figured Armed, ridden
by Doug Dodson, would set the early
pace with Pot o. Luck taking over
in the stretch The latter runs best
from behind, but he can't take too
many chances with Stymie and First
Fiddle, notoriously strong finishers.
Today's field shaped up as one of
the most evenly matched since AL
fred Gwynne Vanderbilt inaugurated
the Special. The track was in ex-
cellent condition and the winning
time was expected to be close to the
best ever recorded for the event.

Chicago's once mighty Bears ar

game tops mediocre National Foot
ball League schedule, which pairs
Pittsburgh with Philadelphia, Cleve-
land and the Chicago Cardinals, De-
troit and New York and Green Bay
with the Boston Yankees.
Off-hand, the Redskins shape up
as the better team and Fred Davis
return adds 240 pounds Of muscle to
the front line. The big tackle, who
starred on the AZ title team, drew
his Army discharge yesterday and
promptly signed football contract.

halfback. but will forgo the formal
ity of signing him until Monday,
Davis addition sent the roster to the
legal limit of 80 and somebody will
have to go to make room for De
Fruiter.
Football Brawl Promised.
The better team doesn't always
win these Redskin- Bear duels. The
Bears could salyages some of their
prestige by trimming the Tribe, but
Washington needs win to keep its
margin over the second-place Eagles.
Both teams come up to the game

skins are hobbled by their usual
quota Of minor injuries. This is

posed to be riddled by injuries when
it stepped out and won its last
two games.
The game easily could evolve into
a passing duel between Sammy
Baugh and Sid Luckman, who are
tied for league passing honors, but
Washington's wealth of running
backs bellies this. Sammy will do
some singing, probably more than
the 10 passes he threw last week,
and Luckman unquestionably will
put in a full afternoons work, but
Washington's ground attack will be

of the scramble for Eastern honors.
