Dorchester Farms Garry Back,
the 3-year-old champion race
horse of 1861, emerged today as
favorite for the big handicap
races coming up in Florida this

blistering stretch runs to finish
second behind Intentionally
and he was gaining on Tartan

the end. The winner, basically
a sprinter. is not expected to
go in the longer races.
Eleven other speedsters were
in the race with Intentionally
and Carry Back. Ambiopoise
finished third, Beau Admiral
was fourth and Glass House
fifth, followed by Winonly,
Editorialist, Cuvier Relic, Merry
Ruler, Yorky, Gyro, Pointer and
Gordian Knot.
II thought our horse ran a
hell Of a race" Trainer Jack
Price said of Garry Back. when
you come that close to beating
a horse at his own game-and
remember, Intentionally is a
champion sprinter-you have
to think Carry Back ran a great
race. He just ran out of ground
and was probably going to
catch Intentionally if they had
a little farther to CO."
Carry Back, ridden by John
Sellers, was 11th after a quarter
mile and 10th at a half. He was
sixth turning into the stretch
and then turned it on.
The winning margin was a
length and three quarters, with
two lengths between Carry
Back and the third horse. The
time was l:2235, third fastest
in 20 runnings of the Palm
Beach, and the winners prices
$7.20, 81 and $3.50. Garry Back
paid $4.30 and 1910 and Am
biopoise $9.7O.
Intentionally, piloted by
Bobby Ussery, earned $21, ,742.5O
for w. L. Mcknight, owner of
Tartan Stable, to boost his total
winnings in little more than
five years of racing to $611,-

$500, pushing his bankroll to
$858,338.
Most Of these horses will run
again in the mile-and-an-
eighth, $50,0OO-added Seminole

Lakers back in their old ia
miliar role as an underdog.
Game time is $3.50. There will
be no preliminary, but spec
tators are advised to be early
to beat any traffic jam.
Ever since George Mikan
hung up his gym shoes with
the old Minneapolis franchise,
the Lakers have been called
upon to buck big challenges.
They had to prove that basket
ball could draw in Los Angeles
and they had to prove that
they could win in the NBA
without a. truly great pivotman.
Only a year ago at this time,
the Lakers were struggling one
game out Of the Western Di-
vision basement.
Now they lead their division

maintain first place with Bay

Taking No Chances
The muscular 6-foot-5 for
ward, who began his basketball
career on District playground
courts, will miss tonight's game
because of Army duties at Fort
Lewis, Wash. Laker officials
are unwilling to jeopardize his
chances of appearing in the
playoffs by requesting leave for
road trips.
So far the surprising Lakers
haven't even begun to fade.
Jerry West, the brilliant NBA
sophomore from West Virginia.
is averaging 29.9 points a game
40 since Baylor joined the
Army and the Lakers have
kept their margin over the
Cincinnati Royals. With West
scoring 80 last night the Lakers
edged Detroit, 123-122.
Oddly enough, it has been
the Celtics who lately have been
feeling runnerup pressure. The
four time world champions lead
the Eastern Division by 612
games, but their margin over
Philadelphia was whopping
1912 games just IL days ago.
Only Game Here
An injury to Russell, the
leagues finest defensive play
er and one of its premier re-
bounders, sent the Celtics into
a four-game tailspin. Russell
was back in action last night,
scoring II points as the Celtics
whipped the Chicago Packers,
