After a sizzling, nose-to-nose
stretch battle, Alfred Wander
bilt's Idolater and Roger w.
Wilson's Road House wound up
in a dead heat for first money
in the 44th running of the $28,-
900 Bowie Handicap before a
disappointing crowd of 18,057
yesterday.
The camera not only failed
to split the first two horses
but could not even locate the
fancied Mystic II, top-weigted
with 125 pounds, who ran an
almost unbelievable last in the
mile-and-a sixteenth event. The
only solace to the many back
erS Of the Morris Dixon-trained
entry, backed down to 6-to-5,
was Mrs. William C. Wright's
Moon Shot, who hung on for
third money after setting much
of the pace.
But Idolator, a Florida in
vader, and Road House, q New
Orleans campaigner, left their
six rivals in a rut when they
uncorked their stretch duel.
Moon Shot finished AZ lengths
behind the dead-heated pair.
1t was another AZ lengths to
the fourth finisher, Alec j.
Bullock'S Side Kick.
Weird PayOff Results
The dead heat for first pro-
duced a weird mutuel payoff,
with both Idolator and Road
House returning $4.40. IS and
$2.40 across the board.
Idolater and Road House
were clocked in 1:453s.
Many observers thought Idol
ater. given a superb ride by
Sam Boulmetis, had rallied in
the final stride to nip Road
House. But the stick work of
Panama-born Sandino Herman
dez, who was making his Mary
land debut. got Road House to
the wire on even terms with
the Vanderbilt colorbearer.
Road House, an eligible for
the 100000 Campbell Handi-
cap at Bowie March Is, was
rated in fourth position by
Hernandez and Joined Idolater
at the three-eighths pole. At
the eighth pole. it seemed that
Road House would surge by
Idolater as he held a half
length advantage. but the gray
colt came on again and was
nose and nose along the inside
until the wire.
The dead heat was the sec
ond in the long history Of the
Bowie Handicap. a stakes
which Bowie inherited from
Pimlico back in the depression
days. In 1910, Aethelwold and
Conde Rico finished even. with
Nick Wall riding Aethelwold
and Lucas Dupps aboard Conde
Rico.
Both Earn $11,9OO
Idolater, who was not nomi-
mated for the Campbell. carried
112 pounds, a pound more than
Road House.
The pair split first and sec
ond money, each earning
$11,9O0.
There was no explanation for
Mystic lis poor effort. The
French-bred horse, who is
given to sulking at times, never
showed a desire to run for
Jockey Arthur Chambers, al
though only two weeks ago he
turned in a powerful effort in
winning the 7-furlong South
ern Maryland Handicap.
Mystic II Poses Problem
Mystic II, who is owned by
C. Mahlon Kline, is expected
to return for the Campbell, and
poses a problem for Bowie's
racing secretary, John Turner,
who is expected to release his
weights for the race Wednes-
day.
Bowie finally came up with
Ideal weather for a weekend
program after a series OF, dis
appointments, but the fans ap-
parently did not put faith in
predictions of blue skies and
balmy breezes.
Betting also fell below pre-
dictions, with $1,665, 800 being
wagered.

to note how people VIII, know

Could it possibly be that

lege spokesman for the Milt
Grant Show? Can you truth
fully say that your ego
wouldn't be boosted by let
ters praising you for being
smart enough Ito figure it
out?" You don't dispute
someone's argument by at
tacking his personality.
If you have the power Of
your convictions you would
be glad to go to a psychoana-
lySt with me and have him
decide which one of us has
the complex. Unless you can
do this there is no sense in
your trying to support your

any more personal attacks.
They do not dispute anything

VICTOR LOAfACKY.
Come now, Joe Play Back,

Please. Joe, take your little

Victor has a good mind Il
am sure there is no neuroses)
and I am inclined to agree
with him about good music,

I am up to date on my

ment.
I liked the Milt Grant
Show, it was not my favorite,
but ! watched it sometimes.
Joe, you will make a very
good doctor someday; how
ever, let's stop using Victor

More on Eichmonn

Several letters IN past Is
sues of TEEN have prompted
me to write concerning the
Eichmann trial. I disagree
with Mary Martin Colbert
Survey, May 81 when she
says we ought to forget about
Adolf Eichmann. Forgetful-
ness or apathy is not the way
to face the problems and is
sues of today. Americans,
especially American teen
ayers, do not realize that
those important world events
such as the trial, affect us
Just as much as the citizen
of Isreal or Germany. We
should be as conscious and
interested in what happens
to our foreign neighbors as
we are to the neighbor next
door, especially when our
prestige and world peace de-
pends upon our understand
ing of other countries views
and problems.
I commend Janet Fichtel
Play Back, May 12j for her
interesting and spirited let
ter. Even though we are all
Americans and proud to be
SO, it is good to realize that
the customs, laws, literature
and most important the peo-
pie of other lands are re-
sponsible for this great coun-
try, as she 80 ably pointed
out.
Although I believe that
Eichmann Is guilty Of many
inhuman crimes, I believe
that emotionalism has re-
placed justice In his trial.
Those who are trying Eich-
mann resorted to his level by
kidnapping him, violating in
ternational law and trying
him in a country that did
not even exist when his
crimes were committed. Cur
rent movies, television shows
and books which tend to
everyday the gruesome and
horrible in Germany's his
tory to get q large audience
consequently money! are
only stunting the way OF JUS
tice If there Is any In this
trial.
1 believe that the whole is
sue has been overplayed to
gain prestige and propaganda
for certain countries and mi
nority groups. and that the
real issues in question have
been forgotten.

In regard to Barry's letter
(TENN May, 19) about Eich-.
mann, I would just like to
say that I agree with him
Fundamentally. He made a
very good comparison when
ne compared Eichmann to
Attila the Hun.
He left out one very i'm
portant point though. Al
though I agree that he should
be tried. he should not be
tried by the Jewish nation,
Israel. In my opinion. they
would be very biased. Rather,
he should be tried by a court

oula's consent to placing Ma
tional Congolese Army forces
under United Nations COM
mand also sets a precedent for
any later combined U, N.-Leo-
poldville military moves against
either the pro-Communist Gil
zenga or secessionist Tshombe.
The U.N. force, instead of
the inexperienced Congo army.
thus could provide generalship
to conduct any military CAM
paigns considered necessary.
Minor Military Threat
So far, American officials
said, Mr.. Gizenga had ma
neuvered in the political field
almost exclusively and posed
only a minor military threat.
The rs mbe forces in
Southern Katanga are con-
sidered the more important
military threat to the Central
Congo government.
Action against Mr.. Gizenga,
therefore, has been largely pre-
cautionary so far. American
officials say, because he is the
lesser threat. Senator Dodd,
Democrat of Connecticut and
others have protested that the
U. N. has dealt severely with
anti-Communist Tshombe while
withholding moves against pro-
Communist Gizenga.
