Intent Trails in Third
As Close Stretch Duel
Is Waged by Leaders
By the Associoted Press

NEW YORK, May 23.-Tom
Fool, candidate for 1853 handi-
cap honors, won the $4,000
added Metropolitan Handicap
today by a narrowing half length
from Mrs. Esther dupont Weir's
Royal Vale. Their expected duel
drew 1928 spectators to Bel
mont Park.
Ted Atkinson, who rode the
winner, let Jack Amiel's Mr.. Turf
set the early hot pace and did
not move into the lead until the
head of the stretch. Halfway to
the wire, Tom Fool, owned by
the Greentree Stable. had opened
a commanding lead.
Jack Westrope, aboard Royal
Vale, saved ground by sticking
close to the rail and was cutting
into Toms FOOLS lead when At
kinson went to the whip to finish
a half length to the good.
Cold Command Fourth.
The two leaders finished eight
and a half lengths in front of
the Brookf1eld Farms Intent.
Fourth was c. V. Whitneys Cold
Command.
Tom Fool carried 13O pounds
and became the fourth horse in
the go years of the race to win
an impost that heavy. Royal
Vale carried 1877 pounds.
The winner travelled the mile
IN 1888, one second off the
track record set by Count Fleet
in 1912. He paid SO, $3.50 and
$2.10 in the mutuels. Prices on
Royal Vale were $3.50 and $3.50.
Intent refunded So.
Tom Fool. who earned $25,800,
now has total gleanings of 1884,
$40 and an overall record of IA
victories, seven seconds and one
third in % starts in three years.
Went Wrong in Training.
The Greentree colt, top juve-
nile of 1851. went wrong in train
ing last year and missed many of
the three-year- -old classics. Later
he came back to score impressive
stakes victories in the Wilson
Mile, Jerome, Grey Lag and
Roamer Handicaps among others
The only time he was ever out
of the money was in a six-fur-
long allowance prep for the
Arlington Classic last summer,
when he finished fourth in the
mud. He never did get to the
post in the Classic.
This year, he made his debut
at Jamaica in siX-furlong
allowance race which he won
easily. Then earlier this week.
he toyed with his field in cap
turing the Joe H. Palmer Memo
rial Handicap, another six-fur-
long event, also under 130
pounds.
The colts next objective is
the Suburban Handicap, a mile
and quarter test to be run next
Saturday.

Match Has A Head
But No Brains

Citing the fact that each year in
Ohio many children are seriously
burned, sometimes fatally, Charles
r. Scott, Ohio State Fire Marshal,
is urging that all parents exercise
greater caution in removing mat
ches from. the reach of small
hands Avoid the use, if possible,
of the so called KITCHEN MAT
CHI" Use safety matches.
Not too long ago in one of our
Ohio cities, two boys, ages 4 and
5, and a girl 6, were playing with
matches in a garage. They locked
the door from the inside and while
lighting the matches, they ignited
the oil and grease which had ac-
cumulated on the floor. They could
not reach the doors because of the
flames and those on the outside
could not get in. They were burned

1853 Accidents
Up d Per Cent

Only a minor miracle can keep
1853 accident deaths below last
years totals in Ohio.
Henri Marc, president of the
Ohio State Safety Council, stated
that so far we are averaging 100
fatal accidents a week, about 496
above the 1852 casualties.
400 of these deaths occur in
traffic, $3.50 are home accident
deaths and 1870 come from public
accidents which do not involve a
motor vehicle.
The most pronounced increase in
traffic casualties comes from col
lisions between motor vehicles -
which have produced SO more
deaths than last year. Other types
of traffic casualties are even with
or slightly below 1852 figures.
Marc is fearful that bad weather
will bring noticeable increases in
pedestrian, non-collision, and col
lision with fixed object deaths.
Poor visibility and lessened trac-
ton are factors that increase these
types of accidents during the Win
ter season.
A 40@o increase in poisoning
deaths is a big factor in the rise
in home fatalities. The mechanical
suffocatien of infants is up $3.50
while miscellaneous mishaps-out-
side of the major groups - have
risen considerably.
Public accidents-no motor We
hicle involVed-lead the upward
trend. Transportation--rail, water
and air-brought SO more deaths
than in 1852. This has been a bad
year on the water, boatsmen and
passengers providing % more fa-
talities than in the previous year.
Marc said that the unusually
mild fall may result in abnormal
accident experience for November
and December. We have had no
need to adapt our driving and
walking to the weather. When we
do get storms and slippery walks
and pavements - a rash of acci-

This station is expected to be
ready so that litters of pigs can
be tested next spring. 1t viii be
built in the Columbus area not
only because this is a central loca-
ton SO far as swine producers are
concerned, but also because it will
then be within easy reach of the
Meats Laboratory at the Univers-
ity. These two units-the testing
station and the meats laboratory
will give Ohio farmers an out
standing research combination.
Research and observation have
clearly shown that there are meat
type hogs in every breed and over
fat hogs in all breeds. Some pro-
gress has been made in selecting
meat-type breeding stock, but
much more rapid progress can be
expected when the feeding and
testing station is in full operation.
Only in such a station can repre-
sentative pigs be fed under con-
trolled conditions.
Swine growers and their organ
izations for some time have urged
that such a station be established.
1t is now near a reality.
The increase in cattle numbers
in the u. S. has been halted, re-
ports the Bureau of Agricultural
Economics. Slaughter will remain
large in 1854 but more price sta
bility is expected.
Hog production will increase
next year, with some lowering of
prices as hogs from the larger
