By Bill Fuchs

The mystery of the missing tro-
ply, a modern who-dunnit COM
plete with international flavor and
guns with real bullets, was brought
to a conclusion yesterday at the
Hotel Statler.
Robert J. Allen, jr., a graduate
instructor working for his Ph.D.
In agronomy at the University OF
Maryland, presented the trophy
to the National Rife Association
The NRA was glad to see it. 1t
had been missing for more than
five years.
The story began on December
20, 1943. The place was Tunisia
Africa, and the Battle for Democ-
racy still was far from won. To
help ease the strain of combat
the Tunisian government staged
an international rifle match and
put up trophy. The winning
country was to turn the trophy
over to its governing rife associa-
ton which was to put it back into
competition at a later date.
The Americans had rifles su-
perior to those owned by the Brit
iSh, French and Tunisians. But to
make the match more even the
United States team stripped its
guns down to the bare essentials
They won anyway and were
awarded the trophy. Allen was q
member Of that winning team.
But there was a war going on

There's no question about it
Vulcan's Forge was the best in the
race today" Jockey German SAID
But when I got to the front the
colt started to loaf on me. How
ever, when I shook him up, he
came on and won. I had good
racing luck the first part. laying
no worse than fourth at any time
but I had to make my move a
little earlier than l had planned
because both Ace Admiral and
Solidarity started to bear out" -
WestrOpe Makes No Excuses.
Vulcan's Forge was the fourth
longest shot in the race, only
Solidarity. Danada Gift and Fast
and Fair having less backing.
The slop messed everything
up said Westrope. I'VE have no
excuses" His mount, Dinner
Gong. closed at 3 to 1sin the
wagering.
Adams said he and Miss Grillo
were blinded by the flying mud
which caused her to duck inside
the eighth pole. II believe she
ran the strongest race of the field,
and we were just unlucky." the
Jockey said.
The betting handle reflected the
rain. The pool was $593,429, as
compared to S80l,3l6 bet on the
big race when Talon came in to
win year ago. The days total

MIAMI. Fla, Feb. 26.-Calumet
Farms mighty Coaltown breezed
to a two-length victory in the
$50. .000- added Widener Handicap
at Hialeah today.
Dixiana's Stables Shy Guy was
second and Calumet's Faultless

First Nighter was Fourth, Stud
Poker, owned by E. E. Voynow was
fifth and Mrs. E. Du Pont Weir
Royal Governor was last.
CoaltoWn's time in the mile and
quarter was 2:02 flat-a full
second off the track record set by
Ell Mono last year in the Widener
A slim crowd of 21,030 wagered
$1,175,074 for the eight-race pro-
gram. Only half hour before the
Widener's post time the track an
nounced there would be straight
betting only and a previously
scheduled ninth race-to be run II
the Widener was wagerless-was
cancelled.
Track officials were surprised
by the drastic drop in both at
tendance and mutuel play. Last
year Hialeah's attendance record
was broken when 34,394 attended
and wagered $1,722,143-more
than half a million more than was
bet this year.
