Michigan turning his back on lucrative business offers one of which was believed to involve a salary of S50000 a year Spiking rumors that he was on the verge of leaving Michigan where he achieved his greatest successes in 18 years as a football coach Crisler told reporters he had rejected offers from industry in order to "stay in a job I know something about" "My roots are too deep in the University of Michigan and college athletics to leave my position" Crisler who is 41 said firmly If iOU were lucky enough to reach Ogden you had to follow explicit directions to get back to Salt Lake given in detail like this: If you wanted to go from Salt Lake to Ogden by automobile you'd get lost unless you followed a route map which described the way in complete detail like this: SAN MATEO Cal

My Request to run Saturday and the result was a smashing five-length victory over seven other Kentucky derby eligibles in the Experimental handicap No 2 at Jamaica It was the second straight Saturday that the 3-year old chestnut on of Requested smothered his field and left the flashy colt one to be reckoned with in the classics to come Even Money A- crowd of 48033 made My Request the even money favorite backers as he turned on the heat leaving the back stretch and fairly romped to the wire five lengths In the van It was the same margin he had in the Experimental No 1 at six furlongs a week ago My Request definitely showed all skeptics this afternoon that he could travel a distance and still he couldn't do as a 2-year-old Today's Experimental was a mile and one sixteenth and My Request handled it in He paid S4 S330 and $270 across the board Long Shot Second Just as a long shot came along to grab second money last week another did it this time when Hal Price Headley's Pennon followed
