Blue Grass Stakes I
Thursday May Give
New Clue on Derby
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, April 21.-Racing
experts trying to figure the Ken
lucky Derby winner are looking to
Thursdays $4,000 Blue Grass
Stakes at Keeneland for a fresh
clue. Scheduled for a mile and
one-eighth. this is one of the final
preps for the big race at Louisville
May 3.
Master Fiddle, Myhelyn Stable
color-bearer, gave them something
to think about by his come from
behind victory inthe Wood Mem
orial Saturday. The son Of First
Fiddle whipped 13 prospective
Derby opponents. including Tom
Fool, Greentree Stables 1851 two
year-old champion.
But it wasn't too conclusive a
victoryand Blue Man, winner of
the Experimental Handicap No. 2,
in which Master Fiddle was q
fast-closing second, didn't run in
the Wood. He had been sent to
Louisville the day before as he
wasn't entered in the Jamaica
race.
Makeup of Field Uncertain.
The makeup of the field for the
Blue Grass Stakes is still con-
jectural. Possible starters include
Hill Gail. Gushing Oil, Happy Go
Lucky, Sub Fleet and Oh Leo,
among others.
John Gaver, Tom FOOLS trainer,
said he naturally was disappointed
to lose the Wood. Tom Fool
missed the top money of $45, 200
by only neck-but added that
his colt might have needed the
race. It was only Tom FOOLS sec
ond race of the year, and he was
q tired horse at the finish.
Meanwhile, the Eastern delega-
ton. which is expected to number
about seven in the Derby, pre-
pared today for the trip to Louis
vile. Cousin. owned by Alfred
Vanderbilt. and Bayard Sharpe's
Hannibal, fourth in the Wood,
will leave for Churchill Downs to-
morrow. Master Fiddle and j. j.
Amiel's Count Flame, stablemate
of last years Derby winner, Count
Turf, will go by plane Thursday.
Tom Fool is to be shipped by train
Thursday. and Pintor is due to
leave some time during the week
from Laurel, Md.
Rutchick to Leave Early.
Sol Rutchick, trainer of Master
Fiddle. felt pretty good today
over the Wood triumph. He wasn't
making any predictions as to the
Derby outcome but promised to
be on hand. Last year he wasn't
around to receive the plaudits for
Count Turf's victory. He missed
plane connections.
But don't worry, I won't be
absent this time" he said.
The Russian-born trainer plans
to travel to Derbytown in a spe-
cial chartered railroad car to-
gether with Master Fiddle's
owners. Mr.. and Mrs. Nicholas

Method Of Dehydroting Beer
Found by British Scientists

Shaw, an officials of the Brewers
Society, said today.
The method, devised after long
trials, is to freeze ordinary beer
until about three-fourths it's VOL
ume is ice. Then the ice is re-
moved. The alcohol doesn't freeze
and most of the other constitu-
ents of beer are concentrated in
the liquid.
Theoretically to reconstruct the
concentrate into the real thing it
is only necessary to add water.
Actually carbonic acid gas to
provide the f1zz and foam and
small quantities of starch gum and
a hop concentrate to impart the
beery smell must be added for the
"dehydrated beer" to recapture
everything.
The alcoholic content is about
the same as before.

Railway Convicts Win
Probe ofParoIe Board;
Still Hold 3 Guards
BY the Assoeiafed Press

RAILWAY, N. j.. April 22.-Rle-
belliouS convicts at Railway State
Prison won their chief demand
an investigation of the State
Parole Board-but held out today
on the issue of disciplinary action
after a f1areup in their five-day
mutiny
A prison official said a slight
amount" of tear gas was used last
night on the 231 rebel prisoners
who took over a dormitory wing
Thursday night and are holding
eight guards hostage.
R. William Lagay, superintend-
ent OF the prison farm, said the
gas was used to quell a new dis
turbanoe by the rioting convicts.
The mutineers want no reprisals
for their action and prison officials
said they could not guarantee
there would be no disciplining of
the prisoners.
When their demand for no re-
pTlSal acClOn was not met, the con-
victS touched off a disturbance in
the dormitory wing which spread
to the south wing Of the prison,
not previously involved in the out
break.
The south wing was quieted
within As minutes when threat
ened with gas, Mr.. Lagay said.
The rebels started a fire in the
dormitory wing, which went out
quickly.
A message from the rioters,
written on a bed sheet which was
unfurled outside the dormitory
windows, said, lone word holds
up settlement" An explanatory
note added that the word was
"disciplining"
Before the f1areup, Mr.. Lagay
said he was hopeful the mutiny
of the hungry and thirsty con-
victs would be settled very soon.
The prisoners have had little food |
and water since the start of the
uprising.
The Railway mutiny has ex-
ceeded by more than a day the
77-hour rebellion of 50 convicts at
Trenton State prison, which
ended Friday.
