is believed among local residents
to be a record sheephead for this
area and most likely one of the

and caught on number 6 Eagle

for small game fish.
Frank made his catch Tuesday
afternoon while fishing in the
Inland Waterway with L. A. Par
oft, also of Cherry Grove Beach,
and operator of the PARROT Inn

Together the two fisher-lovers
landed several other of the much
sought-after shepherds.

Approximately $4,000 more from
our people will bring our cam

running of the 100000 Santa
Anita Handicap.
Track observers expected
comparatively small field to be
entered today, with the array
overshadowed by the three big
threats of the Calumet Stable,
Citation, Ponder and Two Lea.
Others deemed daring enough
to challenge the Calumets were
Moor, My Request, Niche, Soil
darity, On Trust, Moonrush and
Old Rockport, while But Why Not.
Gaffery, Bolero, Rose Beam and
KnockdoWn were regarded as
long-shot possibilities.
Uppermost interest was focused
on the parallel and dramatic
prospects of Citation in his big
comeback effort tomorrow and the
story of Seabiscuit a decade ago.
Comeback a Rocky Road.
Citation, the super horse" and
Triple Crown king of 1948, thus
far has found the comeback road
a rocky one to travel, and in his
three trips to the post after
years layoff with a leg injury, he
has been beaten twice.
Tomorrow he goes against for
midable field and can expect the
most trouble from his own stable
mates, Ponder and the filly, Two

Calumets. wants to see Citation
the winner. But the stable cannot
take chances in race so valuable
in money and prestige as this.

the same manner. Twice The
Biscuit had missed the rich plum,
each time by a head, and tnen lii

year, and when he came back he
