Whats the catch y

That's how people tend to react when you offer
them something for nothing.
Which we think is fine-because there are times
when dash of skepticism come in mighty handy.

made to anybody who stock wants to- The
offer to have Research Department provide you
with thoroughly objective analysis OF your present
holdings in the light of todays conditions or pre-
pare the suitable investment program it can for
any particular set of crcumstances-any specific
amount of money.

charge for this service, you're not obligated in any
way Your name isn't placed on a mailing list you're

He was injured in Algeria in
1856. when he was hit by a

through his elbow, skidded along
his ribs and then ricocheted
away.
When he rides, he compen-

his right arm by extremely
strong legs, which he uses with
great dexterity.
Horse Is Success Story
The colonel is an interesting

horse, too, is an equine success

NEW YORK, April 8 tAP).-
Promoter Cecil Rhodes. jr.. and
his encourage met with net
work officials today to iron on,
differences that have arisen
over switching the Floyd Pat
terson-Brian London heavy
weight championship fight
from Las Vegas to Indianapolis
All was not sweetness and
light between the parties The
network was annoyed at Rhodes
ant Gus D'Amato, Patterson's
manager, for the sudden
change in sites of the May
bout.
Agree on Terms
We've agreed on terms, I"
Tom Gallery, MICS sports d.
rector. said. But we haven't
signed any new contracts yet,
We'd better settle the whole
thing today or it will blow UP.
What gets us is that the
contract we signed with the
promoter, manager and fighter
says the bout is to be held In
Las Vegas. We don't think you
should walk out on a contract.
Furthermore, D'Amato has
no idea Of the television busi-
ness. For instance, we are black
ing out the area of the fight. In
Las Vegas, that would mean
somewhere between 5000 and
10000 sets. But there must be
at least 400. 1000 sets around In
dianapoliS.
'D'Amato thinks that any.
time someone doesn't julnp for
him, he's being double-crossed. .
Rhodes was taking the whole
thing calmly. He said that NBC
had asked him to take a
$4,000 cut in the original
$225, 900 TV fee.
THAT will be Strengthened
out" he said.
Rhodes and D'Amato decided
on the switch because they said
they feared Las Vegas gamblers
might become involved. The
Las Vegas sponsors denied this,
saying the real reason for the
switch was that they refused to
put up any money for the
promoters.
Deny Second Shift
Late yesterday there was a
report that the fight would be
moved to Louisville and staged
on the eve of the Kentucky
Derby. May 2. That came from
a sports executive of the broad
casting network which will
carry the fight. Rhodes, how
ever, denied another switch.
LAS soon as we get all the de-
tails Strengthened out, we're 60
ing to send for London, y
Rhodes said.
That will please London. He
says he has his bags packed
and is just waiting for a trans
Atlantic call. He doesn't care
where the fight is held, he add
ed. He has incurred the wrath
Of the British Board of Boxing
Control which refused to sane
ton the fight.

If your lawn is giving you
trouble these days, consider the
problem facing George Brick
Martin, Laurel's general man
ager.
BY fall he must grow 8
acres of grass over land which
has not yet been seeded, and
| it must be thick and smooth
enough to run the Washington,
D. c.. International over it
November IL.
Laurel's controversial seven
eighths-of-a mile grass course
will be widened and heightened
to a mile this summer and it is
Martins job to have it ready
for the fall meeting at Laurel,
which opens october 30.
Rebuilding Dirt Course
Martin also is supervising
the rebuilding of the main dirt
course, which will measure a
mile and an eighth when fin
ished. But he rates the grass
problem the toughest part of
the 81 million rebuilding pro-
gram now in progress at Laurel,
AS soon as the current spring
meeting closes May 2. Martin
will begin to concentrate on
the new grass course. Only a
portion of the present course
will be utilized. The new turf
footing will take in part of the
present dirt backstretch and
seeding will start as soon as
the ground is leveled.
In order to get quick growth,
Martin plans to use Bermuda
grass and fill in with Kentucky
Blue later. He will not depend
on summer rains to water his
grass. Experience has taught
him that the weather can stay
extremely dry in the area dur
ing July and August.
Sprinkler System Utilized
Although any rain will be
welcome. the new grass will be
watered by an elaborate sprin-
kler system utilizing new plas-
tic pipe. Plans call for auto
matte sprinkler heads to be
placed at 80-foot intervals
around the course.
Automatic controls will en-
able Martin to put water on
any section Of the course he
desires or set the entire system
working with sections Of sprin-
klerS turning of and on in ro-
tation. Water will be obtained
from Laurel's wells. which sup
ply the entire racing plant
The turf course will be
equipped with a goose-necked
inside aluminium rail which will
have a 12-foot extension. When
drawn back it will provide 10
feet of fresh grass on the inside
on the part of the track which
takes the worst beating from
trampling hooves.
To Use Distance Poles
/ The changing of the inside
rail will only affect the distance
around the course by "a feet.
Unlike the present Laurel grass
course. the new one will be
marked with distance poles. and
