Hasty Road bore out at the

Derby, but Adams explained
that easily enough.
He was standing crooked in

said. He leans all over it, like
a big. gawky kid, and he likes
to look around and see what the
others are doing. When the
break came he wasn't standing
straight and went out a little,
but it didn't make any differ

The comments following the
Women's National Capital Open
played here last week were very
similar to some made after the
last visit of the women pro
golfers in 1949. The girls are
badly in need of some promotion
if their tournaments are going
to become fixtures in any city.
They can't make it financially
for purses of $4,000, and few
sponsors are going to pay that
if the girls don't jazz up the
tournaments.
With the exception of Babe
Zaharias. there just wasn't a
five-star attraction. Some of the
players attracted attention with
their long hitting, and most of
them have a marvellous touch
with approach shots, better than
the men pros. This possibly is
because they use much lighter
clubs and have an advantage in
the short shots.
But for the most part the To-
girl crew of pros that played
here was completely devoid of
color and personality. And some
body should speak to them about
playing in slacks and those un-
glamorous knee-length shorts.
The sad part is that the player
with by far the finest person.
ality. and the one more people
talked about than any other in
the field was Marilynn Smith,
who finished last among the pros
and never will have the golf
game to match her personality.

Puncher Meets Boxer
In N Fight Tonight
BY the Assoeioted Press

DETROIT, May 19.-Carmine
Fiore, the Brooklyn strong boy,
shoots for his eighth straight
victory tonight in a promising
welterweight scrap against
Army bound Jed Black, a grad
uate of Michigan State College.
Fiore, a savage left hooker, is
an 8-to-5 choice to halt Blacks
unbeaten string in their ma
tionally televised 1O-rounder
from Olympia Stadium. TV time
is 10 pm.
Black, an unspectacular, but
steady workman from James
vile. Wis, is unbeaten in his
last q fights. He has an overall
record of 28-1-1, compared to
Flores 26-15-5.
Both are unranked, 24-year-
old welterS who have shown re-
markable improvement in the
last year. There, however, the
similarity ends.
Fiore, a scowling, bushy- haired
bruiser. began fighting in the
streets of Brooklyn.
HE was crude the first time
I saw him." said Trainer Dan
Florio. who has handled such
titleholders as Paddy Demarco,
Jersey Joe Walcott, Tony Can
zoneri and Battling Battalino.
But he had the heart, and you
could sense he was a fighter.

Adams Says He Ron Good Race
Weakness for Looking Around
Betrayed Hosty Road in Prep

He really liked that Louis
vile track" Johnny said. II
think he ran his best three races
there-a win in the Jockey Club
Stakes last year, another in the
Derby Trial and a second to
Determine in the Derby. He
likes Arlington and Washington
Park in Chicago, but he didn't
like Florida, which is like this
track"
Adams said he would have
claimed a foul against Correla-
ton for humping in a more i'm
portant race. but Trainer Harry
TrotSek said to skip it.
AS for the actual running
Johnny said. he would have pre-
ferred to let another horse set
the pace.
II wanted to get him off fast,
then. when he got to running I
was afraid to pull him up be-
cause I might not get him run
ming again." Adams said.
Adams couldn't say what his
strategy would be in the Freak
ness. He would like to be just
off the pace. he indicated, but
if he gets in front early and has
to make the race himself he'll
do it
Now 80, the 4-foot-8 inch
Adams is one of the shortest
jockeys in the game. Conn Nc
Creary is about the same size.
Johnny rides with a long rein
and long stirrup, sitting more
erect, like the English riders. He
has to ride this way. he ex-
planned, to keep his balance but
he doesn't find it any harder
than the other style.
Johnny'S son, John Ralph
Adams, as distinguished from
the fathers full handle of John
Harrison Adams, is a jockey, too.
and not a bad one. They've rid
den together in numerous races
and junior puts over one on the
old man now and then.
i. Adams never has won the
Preakness or Derby. He was
second on Blue Swords to Johnny
Longdon on Count Fleet in both
races in 1943. With 2 second
place in this years Derby, the
little guy is hoping fate doesn't
deal him the same hand all over
again.
It gets monotonous.
