Thoroughbred Topics

John Hervey, (Salvator), the dean of American turf scribes, is of the opinion that the weight assigned present-day fillies and mares is the reason 30 few of them complete the three-year-old season. He points out that Miss Woodford, Firenze and Yo Tambien all carried much lighter weights than the present-day mem- bers of the weaker sex. The official weight scale, prior to the turn of the century, was far lighter than 1t is today and that may be one of the reasons why mare like Miss Wood ford performed for so long against horses of the opposite sex. As a two-year-old, she ran eight times and won five, but not once was she asked to carry more than 1O7 pounds.
 Through November 18th, J. D. Jessop led the jockeys in this coun- try, having won 271 races out of a total of STA mounts, for an average of .28. The veteran, Johnny Long, den, who rode Busher in all of her races during 1945, is one of the vet erans who compiled a fine record during the season. Also through November 26th, Longden had TYP mounts, on which he rode l79 win ners for an average of .23. Doug Dodson has an average of 20 and Ted Atkinson an average of .19, the latter having won 179 races from total of 934 mounts.

Pacific Coast
 League To Be Rated Major

San Francisco, Dec. IT, (UP)-The Pacific Coast league now can be classified as triple-A, but by next We'd nesday the status definitely will be "major league.
 Charles H. Graham, presi- dent of the San Francisco Seals, in a telephone call to his son, Charles, Jr., last night from the Columbus, O., meeting of the minors, said that the way had been cleared.
 The league drew 3,000,000 paid admissions last year. nearly a million more. than the International or American Association. The attendance is about 40 per cent less than either of the major leagues, but as large as either could have boasted outside the New York Metropolitan area.
 Protest
 "The only thing that could possibly hold us up would be a protest from the 1nterna- tional and American Associ- ation against our right to draft players from these leagues-which now also are triple-A," Graham said.
 Young Graham, just out of the Army after nearly three years in Europe, said that the Coast league probably would waive the right to draft play CTS from these two loops for two or three years.

 AT ST. JOES

Waterbury basketball fans will get their first eyeful of one of the best basketball units in Connecti- cut for the past IS years when the Hull Red Devils come to this city for a state league hoop test with Naugatuck zephyrs at the St. Jo- seph's school court, In the Brooklyn section.
 Know Their Hoops
 Led by Herky Rubinstein, veteran of 31 seasons as an active hoopster, the Devils are now leading the new ly-formed state league: while Naug- atuck has yet to win a game after two defeats by Bristol TrampS and Bridgeport Lenox AC. With Freddie Ferrle, Johnny Slab, Rocky Petraf- essa and others who know the St. Joe court well, the visitors will be strong favorites to defeat the zep- hyrs.
 U. S. Time Girls winners of three or four games in succession will meet the Central Stars in 7:30 prelim to the Devils-Zephyrs game.
 Last night at Bristol, the Larese Tramps were 6l-r5 winners over the Bridgeport Lenox; the teams being tied at 25 points at half time, in their state league hoop game. Joe Lynch, Dobrustky, Borts, and Joyce netted 10 to 16 points each; Barney and Harding getting 28 for the Lem OK club. About 500 fans saw the game at Bristol High School.

CLIP MIXED BOWLING LEAGUE

The first week of the second round finds the Plugs still setting the pace, while the Killys have taken over second place, and the Amperes have dropped to third with the Jets close on their heels.
 The loss of three points by the Amperes to the Sparks was the sur- prise of the evening, inasmuch as the Sparks rarely win more than one point. Perhaps they have de- cided to turn over a new leaf for the second round.
 The Switches, Volts and Killys also made a good start in the new round, each team winning four points, although some of the games were nip-and-tuck affairs. The Plugs also had another narrow es- cape, winning the last game by 1 and pinfall by only pins.
 Dean Clarke was high man for the evening, hitting 342, while Rene Droulet rolled 335, coming through with brilliant 132 in the last game. Billy Casey turned in high single of 133.
 Angie Mambruno led the girls this week with high three of 31e and nice second game of 119. Dot Whitaker was not far behind with 315 and high single of 127. Doris Cosgrove also turned in a good per- formance, with 125 in the first game and total of 312. Another member of the distaff side who hit over the 300 mark was Madeline Sweeney with a total score of 303.

Special to the Democrat

Especial to the Democrat

 War Heroes, Too!

Christy Walsh, the former sports writer, publicity bureau owner, and the man who saved Babe Ruth from almost certain financial ruin, when the Bambino was in the clutches of the "bookies" has been proposed by Vincent x. Flaherty, sport5-ed of the Los Angeles Examiner, as man. ager of the 100000 seating capacity Los Angeles Coliseum at $25,000 per year-V. x. doubting that Walsh will be interested, even at such a figure It seems Howard Jones, former USC coach, and brother of Yales TAD" Jones, controls the management of the LA sports plant, and intends to keep PROFES- SIGNAL football from 'muscling in on the fat collegiate profits . |. Johnny Guiepel, the Taft schoolboy star basketball center who was a 10 to 25 point scorer in almost every game last season is at Yale; where he hopes to land a second string job under Red Rolfe. Personally, tall, blond Johnny is one of the nice est kids who ever played the court sport at Taft or any other school. and his coach, Rod Beebee, is just ifiably proud of him.

Tears in the twilight.
 So this second straight Ally win ner is history making around horse highway. And it is somewhat ap- propriate that both of them bowed out, along with women welders female firemen, pig tailed police men and lady wrestlers.
 But while the Tear and Busher were around they certainly liked the bright lights, these kind that flash in the infield. And they led the boys merry chase. The Tear shattered precedent in taking the coveted title away from her gen. clement friends when she finished up a two-year career last season with a record of 18 wins in a starts, failing only once to wind up in the money.
 10 of B Lucky
 But Busher showed her how to play really fast and loose this year
 The young lady in the chestnut coat went out stepping 13 times and 10 of those jaunts were un- lucky for her cantering companions She was out to feather her nest so in the three times she didn't hit the jackpot Busher settled twice for place profits and once more for the show money.
 All that means is that as a three year-old she earned $273, ,755-boost- ing her bank account to the con- forting sum of $334,0o5 and thus becoming the seventh highest money winner in turf annals Busher brought home top money in the Arlington Handicap, where she ran away and hid from Pot OLuck and Tumbs Up; a match race with her elder rival, Durana; the Santa Susanna Stakes, San Vincente Santa Margarita, Cleopatra, Wash ington Park and Vanity Handicaps and the Hollywood Derby.
 That's comparable to playing the lead in Oklahoma, the Birth of a Nation and Uncle Toms Cabin making two pictures, appearing on radio show and writing best seller all in one year.
 Above Dad and Grandpap
 Because this one successful sea- son made her the seventh richest blue blood in racing's social regis ter, boosting her above such post time plutocrats as Gallant Fox Shut Out, War Admiral (Her own daddy); Man O'War Cher grand pappy); Twenty Grand, Devil Diver and Count Fleet.
 With true running refinement which upheld the Man O'War tradition, Busher became the wealthiest lilly in history. That happened in mid-season when she surpassed Top Flight, the former queen, who had won $275, 300. All that stood between her and the top were Whirlaway, the king; Sea- biscuit, Sun Beau, Alsab, Equipoise and Challedon-really classy com pany. And she had her sights set on them when a training injury forced her to retire to the farm.
 But she did right well as long as she was around, and only fin ished out of the picture once Which seems only fair in view ot the fact that her career was f. nanced by Louis B. Mayer, himself quite a man in the happy pictures where poor little girls always wind un wealthy
