About 20 members of the
Eastern Ford Midget Associa-
ton of Wilmington, DEL, will
try to demonstrate that their
cars are just as fast as the
famed Offenhauser midgets to-
morrow night in a double
feature auto racing show at
Old Dominion Speedway.
The midget and sportsman
ears will race separately in two
heats, a consolation and a Is
lap feature, a total of eight
races with the first at $50.
The Ford midget cars burn
alcohol and have been hoped
up with triple carburetors,
among other improvements, to
put them on a par with { :
more expensive Offenhaus1.s.
There will be no OfTies at Old
Dominion this time.

GLEN DRAWS NO. II POST
Round Table to Face
II in Record Try

Some fans may think there
is an error on the program
when they see the name Of
Eddie Arcaro instead Of the
familiar Willie Shoemaker
alongside Of Round Tables
name. In the Jockey spot.
But Shoemaker viii not be
riding Round Table on this his
toric occasion. because Of some
pre-race maneuvering after 1t
was thought that the champion
West Coast rider was certain
to pilot Gallant Man.
The latter was withdrawn
from the United Nations. but
Trainer Willie Molter and Kerr
already had signed Arcaro.
Shoemaker was then obtained
to ride Mrs. Adele Rand's Glenn,
who might turn out to be the
giant killer again tomorrow.
Glenn, with 113 pounds against
Round Tables 1870, lines UP as
second choice, mainly because
he whipped the Kerr pride in
the Washington Park Handicap
on Labor Day. In that one,
Round Table shouldered 13l to
Clem's ITO. He drew the No.
II post.
Tudor Era In Field
Also included in tomorrow's
field is Mrs. Herbert Herff's
English-bred Tudor Era, who
dropped q heartbreaker to
Round Table here last Sep
TENDER in the same race. Tu-
dor Era, to be piloted by the
ailing Howard Grant, carries
lis.
Tudor Era, is being quoted at
10-1 together with George
GARDENERS st. Vincent, ia, a
former grass champion. Also
being considered as possible
upsetters are Fairlawn Farms
Liberty Sun, Ills; Green Dunes

sic and that modest fortune is
more than enough to loft Round
Table into the throne now held
by retired Nashua as the all
time money-winning horse.
Nashua retired from racing
in 1856 after he had earned
$1.288,565, a fascinating sum

has been laboring to beat since
Travis Kerr, oil millionaire,
purchased him as a 2-year-old.
The end of the tortuous task

will be televised over WTOP

The weather was a chilly SO

tions call for clear skies and a

This was all in Round Tables
favor, because he is known to
dislike a soggy, wet course. The
remarkable colt makes his 50th

Sears insisted.
Furthermore. Sears said, NO
body will tell us who to put on
this boat"
This was in reply to stories
suggesting WINS superb crew
be allowed to sail Columbia in
the 18th defense Of the Cup.
There will be no outsiders, "
Sears said. I'VE have q top
crew, wonderful crew. They
will sail for the cup. They have
given up practically every day
to sailing since, / think, last
May A."
Earlier, Sears had praised
WINS gallant fight" in the cup
trials.
WINS crew took the news of
Columbia's selection with a
smile.
Logical Choice
Speaking for the crew and
myself" said Owner John N.
Matthews of Oyster Bay, N. Y.
I'VE feel 1t was a logical choice.
We're very happy with it. We
think Columbia will make the
best possible defender"
Matthews pointed out that
Columbia never had really been
badly beaten in a match race.
Leo Buddy lombard, a Vim
crew member, summed up the
Vim reaction thusly:
III it's a question of design,
which it apparently is, then it
was all in the stars. 1t was
settled last winter in the tank
tests. If we sailed poorly, we
might feel sorry. But we didn't.
Columbia is just a faster boat +"
Columbia was hauled out of
the water today at Newport
shipyard.

two or three days while her
crew takes a well-earned rest.

In this way the United Federal

jecting the racial issue and of
threatening reprisals in the pre-
election campaign last July at the
company's plant in Harrison, N. J.
The employees voted against Lo-
cal 262 for The Retail, Wholesale
Department Store Union, AZ to %.
The union was the only group in
volved in the election. Afterward,
it brought the racial-issue charges
in a complaint to the regional di-
rection of the Labor Board and
asked that the election be set aside.
The boards decision reported
that the union had objected that
Mr.. Robinson and William Berdick,
another vice president and the plant
manager, had urged employees to
vote against the petitioner (union) i,
employing appeals to racial preju-
dice"
"The objection alleges" the
board continued, "that Robinson
went through the plant stating
that the petitioner had been
brought in because the white en-
ployes were jealous of his posi-
tons and that, should the petit
toner win the election, all Negroes
would be fired.
"Berdick, it is alleged, confront
ed the white employees with the
threat that all of them would be
fired if the petitioner won and only
Negroes would be permitted to
work.
"The regional director found that
the evidence did not support these
specific allegations"
The board agreed, saying, while
we do not ccndone appeals to ra-
cial prejudice, nor the conduct of
the company's vice presidents in
raising the issue, We do not find
that the injection of the issue, or
the context in which it was dis
cussed herein sufficient grounds
for invalidation of the results"
Conversations Cited
The regional director had rec
ommended, however, that the cleo
tion be set aside on the ground
that two conversations between
Mr.. Robinson and an employe
named Stiles contained threatening
implications of reprisals for en-
ploye activity protected by law.
The board overruled that recon-
mendatiOn. 1t said:
The evidence indicated that
Robinson told Stiles that he was
free to choose whether or not he
wanted to vote for the petitioner
1.-THE union), but, because of his ten
years seniority, he shouldn't stick
his neck cut should be quiet and
that, if he was active, Robinson
couldn't help him sin any way
I'm a second conversation, Rob-
Inson remarked that he had the
final say on discharges and as long
as Stiles did his work he had no
need for concern about his Job"
The board said that "such state
ments in a private conversation
with one employee out of approx
mately sixty-seven employees elig-
ible to vote in the election are so
isolated as to afford no sufficient
grounds for setting aside the cleo
ton"
