H.nd;ca nners Rate Assault And Armed At Equal Weight

| The closest Assault and Armed
came to a contest last eason was
in the annual H~orse-of-the : Year
poll, which gave the honor to the
son of Bold Venture by a not-too-
decisive margin.
Victory over Armed again would
make Assault the top money-win-
ner in history, barely shading
stymie's $722, 100.
Assault has never rambled at
Washington Park, but those who
suspect Armed's speed may prove
too much for him should take into
consideration tha Lucky Draw
had been setting track records all
over the map last season, was
winging five lengths to the good
in the Westchester Handicap last
fall, when Equipoise's grandson
decided to run with George D..
Widener's fleet gelding.
1t is likely that had not Lucky
Draw been Assaulted at this point
he might have maintained his lead
and perhaps established another
track record.
y Both To Be Odds-on
The ability Of A ssault and
Armed cannot be measured with
a tape or found On the face of
a %stop-Watch.
Their racing styles are some
what alike in that they can turn
on speed at any point and knock
racing out of the heads OF oppo-
nents. They are sprinters that can
go a route.
Armed has extreme speed.
Assault runs the half in close
to 46 seconds. It isn't run much
faster than that.
On May 80 of this year, the ma
hogany chestnut, C a frying 100
pounds, beat Natchez in the Sub
urban at Belmont, negotiating the
acknowledgements in 2:01 As,
which left Stymie. under 1876

rears.
Assault goes into the race with

Of Chicago is on Armed's SIDE, but
then Warren Wright's charger has
been in it all summer.
Because of the II per cent mu-
tuel take, both are likely to go
to the post odds-on. Armed at n
toto, Assault at 4-to-5. Armed
figures to be the favorite because
of his Chicago following.
It will be a battle Of jockeys
as we'll as horses. Eddie Arcaro
on Assault will not let Doug bod
son steal too big a lead or set
too Slow a pace.

Armed flies over the Washing
ton Park strip, over which the
Calumet Farm gelding holds the
track records for a mile, 1875 flat,
and for a acknowledgements, POI
flat.
Yet Max Hirsch, veteran train
er of Assault, does not believe the
greatest racing son o. Bull Lea
has any advantage on his home
grounds.

Smashing out "a hits, the Pitts

a twin bill from the New York
Giants today, winning the opener,
lilo and the nightcap, 40.
Wally Westlake singled home
what proved to be the winning
runs in the eighth inning of the
opener. The Giants scored three
in the ninth and had the potential
tying run on third base but Kirby
Higbe, third Pirate pitcher, struck
out Willard Marshall and got
Ernie lombard to fly out to
end the game.
Johnny Mize OF the Giants belted
his 39th homer of the season with
