Cockell. ranked third among
the world contenders for Rocky

worried.
They'll expect too much" he
complained. I'm happier when
they call me the underdog. It
makes me more determined to
go in and win"
Cockell jumped into a con-

Roland La Starza in London on
March 80.
Matthews is down to his best
lighting weight. He weighed in
today at 1902.

he said, $50 I want to make it

card"
The name was Harry E. Som
merer.
Well. the group pored over the
form until q half hour before
the track hove into view. but
Sommerer said he was sticking
with his two selections-Double
Dealer and Noble Sun. He was
pretty close to having q winner.
Bunny's Babe beat Double Dealer
by a nose in the first race, but
Noble Sun won the second from
Chilog by the same margin.
II you notice the charts. you'll
see that Handicapped Gil Haus
matches horses extremely well
at Delaware. Anything over
three-quarters of q length ap-
parently Is q runaway race in
Gil's book. A neck margin is
plenty for q winner. a nose is
much better, and any day. now,
he's bound to come up with a
perfect set Of weights-a dead
heat.
Bobby Goldsteiri, one-time
University of Virginia boxing
star. Is back in circulation after
being on the shelf seven weeks
with injuries received in an
auto accident. Bobby's car was
struck from behind and knocked
into q ditch, and he received
severe facial injuries that
aren't noticeable because a sur
geon friend happened to come
along at the right moment.
But you never saw two such
black eyes," Bobby told us. In

and in the couple Of pro fights
I had with Normant QuarleS, I
never had such sinners as I got

Both Lulu and Mars had bet

The Memorial Day week end,
featuring three perfect days.
may have produced more rounds
of golf in Metropolitan Wash
ington than any previous long
holiday week end.
That was the opinion Of sew
eral persons closely connected
with the game today. Only the
fash storm of Saturday after
noon, which closed most courses
for about an hour and a half and
stopped some late play. may have
prevented the peak of golf here.
One new course-Brooke Manor
Farms Country Club was
opened for play. which gave the
past week end a new source OF
golfers. The 18-hole private fee
course near Norbeck. Md, on
Georgia avenue extended was
open for limited play.
Members were guests of Frank
Murray, the builder, for tee-to-
green play. The green's will not
be ready until next week end
so no putting was allowed. Nearly
$50 players took advantage Of
the opportunity to walk over the
new course, hitting drives and
second shots.
Severine Leoff1er, jr., said play
over the 80 holes at East Poto-
mac. Rock Greek. Anacostia,
Fort Dupont and Langston set at
least a three-year record. There
may have been more when golf
used to be a faster game, but
except for the Saturday storm
we would have had capacity" "
Leoff1er said.
Roger Peacock, pro at Sligo
Park and Glenbrook, Montgom-
cry County's public courses, said
weekend play set a record there.
George Diffenbaugh at Kenwood
and Clagett Stevens at Manor
were among the pros who said
they never had experienced more
play over a holiday period at
private clubs.
There is a good chance that
the Middle Atlantic Amateur
golf title will remain in Wash
ington even though Bobby
Brownell is passing up defense
of his crown in the tournament
starting today at the Rolling
Road Club in Catonsville.
Ralph Bogart of Chevy Chase,
winner in 1949 and 1850. is
entered, plus Jay Randolph of
Bethesda. Baltimore has a ma
jority of the entries, but either
Bogart or Randolph or possibly
both are expected to be in the
final round Friday.

first race" the first stranger
said. And old man Kinks only
got one horse on the program in
the second race. so he must be
ready. That's Noble Sun. I'm
gonna string along with them. I"
The young man across from
him said it was a tough card to
handicap.
They've got three and four
horses in every race that can win
it and it'll be hard to beat" he
said.
The third stranger perused
the form in silence. The fourth
said picking daily double win
nerS was just about the hardest
task a man could set himself
to at a track.
Getting one is bad enough"
he added. But picking two in
a row is real tough"
"Two?" the first stranger said.
"In China, before the last war.
you could really have some fun
at a race track and win a lot of
money if you were lucky. They
had % races day-starting at
8 o'clock in the morning-and
you tried to pick 20 winners"
Now. nobody ever picked 20
winners in one day-not even
the jockeys.
"The person picking the most
winners out of 20 races got the
pot" the man continued. "It
would be worth a couple hun
dred thousand Chinese dollars
and if the. exchange rate was
right fellow could pick up a
nice piece of change.
I'm those days you could live
at the finest hotel in Shanghai.
something comparable to the
best in Washington, for IS Amer
lean cents a day, and that in
cluded three meals" he added.
Right away the other three
began dreaming Of China.
THAT was before the war"
the man reminded them. II
don't know how it is now. but it
can't be that good.
"Tell you another funny thing
about Chinese racing" the man
continued. Their horses were
divided into two classes-those
under So inches tall and those
above. All the jockeys weighed
100 to 180 pounds, and you
should have seen some Of those
long-legged riders trying to help
the little horses along. It was
like q kid on a scooter. a barrel
Of laughs"
The first stranger said he was
a retired Navy man who'd been
all over the world. The first
thing he did after tying up at
a port was to locate the nearest
race track. He was now in busi-
ness at Portsmouth, Va, and the
trip to Delaware Park was a
three-day excursion, taking in
yesterdays program.

and a train to make this trip"
