OF Is Ready 10 Go as
Rain Ends at Goshen
BY the Associated Press

GOSHEN, N. Y, Aug. six
teen finely-t turned horses were to
compete for the 3-year-old trot-
ting championship at triangular
shaped Good Time Park track
today-weather permitting.
Rain delayed the Hambletonian
classic yesterday, turning the rae
ing strip into sticky, holding mud.
However, the rain stopped dur
ing the night and the sun was
peeking through light clouds this
Several thousand fans were
around the track yesterday
when Bill Cane, owner of Good
Time Park, decided there had
been too much rain to permit the
valuable entries to take the track
in quest of the purse of $87 ,637.55
richest in the history of
the 26-year-old stake.
Second Straight Delay.
1t was the second straight year
that rain had forced postponement
of the trotting horse derby.
But the weather didn't make
any change in the odds this year.
Duke of Lullwater from the barns
of w. T. Gambler of Decatur, Ca,
and driven by 32-year-old Johnny
Simpson. remained the 3-to-1
choice to take the best of three
heats starting at 3 pm.
The Duke held the top spot in
the advance odds even though the
two setbacks he received last year
while winning the 2-year- -old title
were over this same track.
Beaten by Hit Song.
These and two other beatings
were given him by Hit Song, the
4-to-1 second choice. Hit Song,
with Harry Pownall in the driv-
er's seat. carries the hopes of
three of the most prominent men
in the sport-E. Roland Harri-
man and Ebby Gerry of New York
and Lawrence Sheppard of Han
over, Pa, president of the United
States Trotting Association.
At least a half dozen others are
well considered. They include C.
w. Clark's Sharp Note Of Dear
born, Mich; the only two f1llies
in the race-Crystal Hanover,
P. j. Baugh. T. r. Johnston and
T. w. Church, Charlotte, N. c.,
and o. L. Mears' Lu Peck of
Toledo, Ohio-Scotch Victor from
s. A. Camp Farms of Shafter,

L. E. Lakes Diplomat Hanover of
Colfax, Ind, and Hardy Hanover,
seeking a second Hambletonian
for E. A. Baker of st. Charles, Ill.

hound in 1885.

chance to get back in the midst of
the pennant scramble today when
they tackled the Yankees in a
double-header at Griffith Sta
dium, but Manager Bucky Harris
was shooting for. the moon with
out much in the way of ammuni-
ton.
Pressed for pitching, Harris
elected to start Don johnson, who
hasn't won a game this year, and
Julio Moreno, who was blasted
freely in his last two efforts and
never had scored a victory over
New York. johnson was a des-
peration choice prompted by the
failure of Randy Gumpert to de-
liver in starting assignments. Like
Moreno. Don has spent three years
in the majors without achieving
a win over the Yankees.
But the champions were forced
to dip among second-hne pitchers

they could manage a double win
this afternoon. Their success last
might cut the Yankees lead over
second-place Cleveland to three
games.
Walter Masterson, surviving a
shaky start, went on to pitch bril-
liantly after a 43-minute delay
due to rain in the fourth inning.
Masterson struck out II and per-
