title play-offs. It's tough break
for Losty, who certainly would get
some recognition for his scintillat-
ing performances this year.
Losty has averaged better than
II points in 13 games this season
even though, as Rosenfield points
out, he has been a marked man
IN every contest. A one hand set
shot is his best weapon but he has
added an effective hook shot to
his repertoire and since has been
doubly hard to stop.
Lefty will be in action tomorrow
night when the Cards entertain
Lynchburg College at c. U. at
$3.50. Rosenfield notes that when
Losty isn't running up a score his
passing and team play helps keep
the team in the game. When his
mates have an off night his sharp
shooting usually keeps them in
the running. Abe says he's a
handy fellow to have on the squad
and he belongs on any Mason
Dixon honor roll whether or not
the Cards get tournament bid.

Seals President Surrenders,
Ban on Peanuts Short-LHed

first time in my life I've been
beaten, and it had to be by a
peanut"
by the wide dissemination of
my decision to outlaw the peanut,
I have found out the public wants
peanuts. Peanuts the public shall
have, and good ones-large, fresh
roasted ones"
Not only did Pagan have to cope
with an indignant public. but he
was squirming under an array of
sports page editorial fingers-all
pointing with shame at one who
would dare shove a peanut around.
And, Pagan added:
When decided to bar peanuts,
I didn't think of all the peanut
pickers it would throw out of work
in the Virginia, Carolina and
Georgia peanut plantations.
Those people have a right to
earn a living"
The janitors think so, too. Rep
resented by the Building Service
Employees Union, the Seals Sta
dlum broom wielders announced
they would demand $1.50 an hour
for sweeping up peanut shells.
That's Is cents an hour more
than they got last season.
That. at Fagan's estimate, will
add $4,000 to the $4,000 it already
costs to clean out the stadium.

Whether to Sturt
Mostest Tomorrow
BY the Associoted Press

ARCADIA, Calf, Feb. 17.-No.
13 comes up tomorrow in the
Santa Anita Derby series and the
figure looks unlucky for the rivals
of Your Host.
A field of a dozen or so is ex-
pected to be named when entries
close today for the l 1s mile fea-
ture. Probable candidates include
Your Host, Great Circle, Deep
Blue. Hawley. Convidado, Alder
man, Feudal. Sturdy One, Most
est, Top Production, Pension Plan
and Fleet Rings, the only f1lly.
If there must be an upset in
the 100000 race, it will be big
one; probably the most surprising
in the 13 runnings of the Derby.
Your Host. the feet chestnut
California-bred owned by Film
Executive William Goetz, long
since has been installed as a pro-
hibitive favorite.
Won Twice DecisiveIy.
The colt. an offspring of Ali
bhai, by prearranged strategy has
raced only two races at Santa
Anita's current meeting, won them
both in decisive manner, and now
heads into the third and biggest
race on his program.
The stable frankly believes he
will not only win the Santa Anita
3-year-old fixture but may prove
a winner in the Kentucky Derby
and other classics for the sopho-
more division In the 1850 turf
campaign.
The last time a California bred
colt won the Kentucky Derby was
when Norwich came through in
1922. but many astute horsemen
think Your Host is definite
threat this year.
Included is Jimmy Jones,
trainer of the West Coast section
of the fabulous Calumet Stable,
who is on record as predicting
great things for Mr.. Goetz colt.
Calumet has an eligible, too, in
Mostest. but Jones just prior to
lthe entry deadline, was undecided
whether he'd send the colt into
the race.
Keenest rival. but still given
only an outside chance against
Your Host. is Great Circle, rae
ing for the Yolo Stable of John
T. De Blois Wack OF Santa Bar
bara. Great Circle has yet to
win stakes-his earnings are
a paltry $25,900 compared to
Your Hosts 3,970-but he's
been groomed for the Santa Anita
Derby distance, he won three
races as a 2-year -old and might
develop into a threat.
Sande Hawley's Trainer.
Off the records there's quite A
drop from Your Host to the re-
mainder of the field. Clifford
Mooers, who captured the Derby
here last year with Old Rockport,
has one colt and a lot of senti-
ment riding with him. The colt
is Hawley.
The sentiment comes from the
Mooers trainer, Earl Sande. The
famous ex-jockey is we'll remem-
bered for the last colt he saddled
for the derby at Santa Anita.
That was Stagehand, winner in
1889 when he was owned by the
late Maxwell Howard.
Stagehand was distinct threat
that year for the Kentucky classic
and Sande still believes he'd have
won it if the colt hadn't con-
tracted illness on the eve of the
race and been forced to withdraw
But Stagehand was the only
Santa Anita winner who ever
figured seriously in the Kentucky
Derby although Dauber, who ran
second to Stagehand here that
same year ran second to Lawrin
at Louisville.
Your Host has big task ahead,
starting tomorrow.
