NEW YORK, July 16.-It
seemed certain today that Tom
Fool and Native Dancer will meet
this fall in turfdom's dream race.
The race and date, however,
won't be decided for a long time,
as Tom Fool. the Greentree
Stables handicap ace, and AL
fred G. Vanderbilt's Native
Dancer, the 3-year-old champion,
follow a carefully planned sum-
mer program.
Belmont Park made a big bid
to bring the two horses together
when it changed conditions for
the Sysonby Mile October 6,
making it a weight-for-age race
instead of a handicap. This
means that if both started in the
Sysonby, 4-year-old Tom Fool
would carry 1875 pounds while
3-year-old Native Dancer would
have 120.
JOCK whitney willing.
John Hay (Jock) Whitney,
Greentree co-owner with his sis
ter, Mrs. Charles S. Payson, said
it is his intention to start Tom
Fool in the Sysonby.
IF all goes well and both
horses are all right, there is no
doubt that they will meet" VAN
derbilt said.
Vanderbilt and his trainer, Bill
Winfrey, must consider the Law
renee Realization, one of the
prizes for 3-year-olds, at Belmont
September 30.
Only Man O. War in 1920 and
Zev in 1923 have been able to
win the Withers, Belmont Stakes
and Lawrence Realization, three
races more comparable to the
English Triple Crown than the
American triple-Kentucky Der
by, PreakneSS and Belmont. VAN
derbilt may want to shoot for the
17s- mile Lawrence since The
Dancer already has won the
Withers and Belmont.
In that case, 1t seems possible
that the stable would pass up the
Sysonby and shoot for another
weight-for-age race, the $4,000
Jockey Club Gold Cup. This is
a 2-mile race October 10. At this
distance, weight for age would
give Tom Fool 124 pounds,
Native Dancer lit.
Citation Did It.
Tom Fool, versatile and power
full, would have to step up from
the mile of the Sysonby on
Tuesday to the 2 miles of the
Jockey Club Gold Cup Saturday
In 1948 Citation won the Syson-
by on Wednesday and came back
three days later to win the Gold
Cup.
Two other weight = for age
races where the horses might
meet are the Empire City Gold
Cup at Jamaica and the Pimlico
Special at Baltimore.

an 81 mark and his best season
was his rookie year with the
Yankees. when he won IA games
and lost five in 1947. Porterfield,
seeking an 11th win today, is
aiming for 20 victories. He has
started twice against the White
Sox, beat them both times and
shut them out once.
The Mats carry a three-game
losing streak into the four-game

game they lost three games in
New York to drop four games

Bucky Harris athletes will be

Private Industry Role

Work an atomic power air

top Defense Department officials
are advocating larger and freer
participation of private indus
try in the atomic energy pro-
gram.
No reason for cancellation of
the plane was given. but officials
said economy was strictly by
product of the action"
He emphasized the feeling Of
Secretary of Defense Wilson and
his deputy, Roger M. Kyes. that
private industry be brought into
the atomic energy program.
Carrier Project Suspended.
Development of a second-type
reactor for use in an atomic
powered airplane carrier also
has been suspended.
But this does not necessarily
mean the Navy will not some day
obtain such carrier. it was said.
Work is going forward on con-
struction on two atomic powered
submarines, and it has been de-
cided that If such power was
decided upon later for a carrier,
the type of reactor in the sub
marine could be enlarged for
that purpose. Thus. it was not
felt that development of the con-
ditional reactor was necessary
at this time.
The carrier, to be. run by
atomic engines, once was sched-
uled for fiscal year 1855.
The latest action means it
might be put off for at least two
years or more, but it does not
mean abandonment.
Testified at Hearing.
Mr.. Kyes testified last week at
a closed hearing of the Joint
Congressional Committee on
Atomic Energy.
There he is reported to have
said development of atomic air
and naval craft would proceed at
greater rate if private in
dustry were brought into the
field. He also said he believes
whatever time is lost in sus-
pending the projects now would
be made up later by more vigor-
Gus operations of private enter
prise.
One source said Mr.. Wilson
and Mr.. Kyes felt the Atomic
Energy Act should be amended,
if necessary, to allow private in
dustry into the field under less
strict limitations.
