Right now there is only one
Lcvato riding, but in a year or
so there might be two or three,
says l9-year-old Frank. who is
making his first appearance in
the East after scoring 80 VIC
tories at the Fair Grounds in
New Orleans.
The personable youngster from
Portales, N. Mex, is working for
Owner-Trainer william H.
Bishop. and although he has only
two winners to date at Bowie. he
looks like a polished rider.
Lovato, olive-skinned with curly
hair, is the oldest Of eight chill
dren. His two brothers. Chris,
is. and Pablo. Is. also hope for
race riding careers.
1t was only last August 20 at
Centennial Park in Denver that
he rode a $4,000 platter named
Olney King to the wire first by
a nose. Olney King probably
will never gain fame but Lovato
always will remember the $3.50
longshot because it marked his
first winner and the start Of his
apprentice year.
Under racing rules, an APP
prentice carries his 5-pound
weight allowance for year from
the date Of his first victory.

Is. Frank was suffering from
tonsilitis and consulted DR..
Donald Munroe in Portales. Dr.
Munroe didn't think much Of
the youngsters tonsils but being
horse owner, liked the looks
OF the 92-pound youngster as a
prospective jockey.
1t was not long thereafter that
Frank found himself at DR..
Munroe's farm in Hot Springs
Ark, galloping horses. Brought
along slowly, Lovato made his
riding debut last year but did
not hit his stride until the Fair
Grounds meet.
He also caught the eye Of the
alert Bishop, who contacted DR.
Munroe in New Mexico. The
physician agreed 10 a 60-day
lease OF the apprentices riding
contract and that is the present
arrangement. Bishop also has
the option to renew the lease.

Heating added that although
his ideas have not entirely

antitrust legislation was designed
TO cover sports.
The question Of whether base
ball Is big business fiared anew
two weeks ago when the Su-
Ipreme Court ruled professional
football is subject to antitrust
statutes. The court previously
had declared baseball exempt.
Celler said he planned only
short hearings. starting in an

II think we already have in

said. referring to a 1852 congress

he headed. Congress took no
