Busher Highly Favored
For Santa Anita Derby

ARCADIA, Calf, June 22.-(P)
The smallest but snappiest field
in the history of the Santa Anita
Derby was named today for to-.
morrow's $4,000 race of three
year olds.
The favorite, Louis B. Mayer
Busher, faces nine colts and geld
ings in a test that may determine
whether Busher deserves a place
among racedom's great. The only
surprise entry was Mayors pat
rimony, entered so his owner can
watch him perform against big
competition.
The mile and one-eighth race
probably will be run on a fast
track. The post time will be 4:4O
p. m. P.W.T.0 the race will be
broadcast (by NBC).
The smallest Santa Anita derby
field heretofore was II starters,
in 1896. Never has this contest
boosted as many established stakes
winners.

the Buns on the right side of the

It might be claimed that in TAX

But the fact remains the Giants

aren't that good a team and now
gradually are settling to the po-
