Louisville, Ky May p. Eighty thou- sand hearts will flutter excitedly as a big field goes to the post n. the fifty-first Kentucky derby, on Satur- day. May ia Eighty thousand throats will cheer madly as the derby i field swings down the stretch and Jockeys call upon their mounts for their last, ounce of strength for the battle for fame and fortune for the i owner and rider, and the priceless honor of Having hia or her name in- i scribed as the winner of a Kentucky derby. The winner again will receive I 000 or more and a gold trophy but varsity and one freshman team swinging into action.

On Kchcnley Oval this afternoon the Panther vars-lety meets West Virginia in track, a meet between the Pitt fresiimen and Klskl being held in conjunction with it. At the same time on- the P.itt courts opposite the Hotel Schcniey the varsity tennis team is trying conclusions withPenn State. The track meets start at 2:30, and both of them promise to be very closely contested. West Virginia Is given the edge in scoring sUength, and on paper Is doped as the winner. In a program of 13 events, however, ranging from the 100 -yard dash to the Javelin throw, a lot of surprises can be sprung, and it may be that the Panthers can edge out a victory for the first time in three years.

The West Virginia team is coached by Art Smith, who has had considerable success with the track forces at Mor-gantown. He has 20 men here today. Coach Frank Shea has entered about SO men in the meet and will contest specially for second and third places In hopes of evening up foe some of the firsts which the Mountaineers are pretty sure to win. D'Auit is considered a sure first place winner in the 100 and 220, and Butts should cop in the 440. Joe Wndkins, of Pitt, should win the half-mile and do rauodn two minutes.

Ted Cor- THERE HAVE been games similar to those mentioned above In th American league this spring-, too. Cleveland had a one-run lead on the Whitesox one recent afternoon going Into the eighth Inning. But the broke loose, and won out by the count of 12 to scoring nine runs In the eighth inning. OM ANOTHER day Detroit went into the ninth leading the Browns 8 to 3, only to be beaten 10 to 8 when the Browns scored seven" runs In the ninth. That was a terrible blow.

IN THOSK two games, two pinch hitters had unusual experiences. Elsh, fcatting; for Chicago against Cleveland, walked twice on eight straight balls. Rice of St. Louis in the Detroit game, hit safely twice. Hank Severeid, the ether pinch hitter used by Pt Louis, connected for a home run with two men on bases.

stride. The players to complain of Injuries following the opening' con test of the eastern Invasion here yes-terday are Eddie Moore, Al Nlehaus and Karl Smith. Moore's trouble is with his shoulder, which was Injured long before the tascn opened: Continued exercise of the Joint seems to have aggravated the injury, and in the third Inning yesterday he reported that piercing pains were In evidence. He wa promptly lifted, Rawllngs talcing his place, and as soon as the contest was over McKechnie made arrangements for him to consult a local phy Prophets Went Wrong LAST WINTER the prediction was freely made that Tyrus Raymond Cobb would play few games for the Tigers this season, and that he would Inject himself into the lineup only in the role of substitute. BUT THE Georgia Peach has started out this spring as if bent on piling tip the finest record of his long and honorable career.

His club has not been doing so well, but the managerial worries have certainly not interfered with Ty's personal work. HIS ACHIEVEMENTS during the past few days have been truly re-piarkable, and entirely worthy of his' past performances. He is one of the the pride In having won a Kentucky derby is beyond price. COMK FROM OVER WORLD. The derby will be run at Churchill Downs, and from all parts of Amer- i lea and other countries will come lovers of the thoroughbred to witness the running of the race.

The derby climaxes the worries many thoroughbred trainers. For months their priceless racers have been petted, mothered like prince- lings. iJerby candidates must be watcheJ i as to condition and safety; their sician. Whether Mocre will continue in thn lineup depends upon the outcome of the consultation thl3 morning. If the muscle expert advises against strenuous capers, Moore will be given a rest until It Is deemed certain there is no chsnce of permanently crippling him.

Improper bandaging bett should have a walkaway in the two-mile, Calloway, of West Virginia, looks best in the mile, and Hammond of West Virginia, in the high hurdles. The low hurdles are uncertain, with greatest batsmen the game has ever known, beyond dispute. He holds so many varied records thru it is hard work keeping track of them.

During the winter, entries were ta- ken for the derby and 139 were enlisted. Since that time, time has ta-' ken its toll. Some candidates failod to measure up to earlier promises; a few died; others were injured in one way or another to make them unfit to race In such a glorious event.

This feat has never been approached by any other big leaguer, and may not be for a long time.

The mistakes which generally show v.p In the first few games on the schedule were in evidence. Coach Simons has called the attention of his players to those mistakes In the hope thai they will rlav a hetter game against Tech. Coach Don Blythe of the Carnegie nine is a former Grove City boy. He coached the Grove City nine on spring several years ago and his Grove City team made a good record.

The Carnegie Tech team this spring is stepping out under his tutelage with the promise of being the leading contender for the tri-state collegiate baseball honors. Capt. Joe llartman and his boys are taking the field this afternoon against a strong opponent with very little practice in actual games played. Coach Simons places his hope in the ability of the veteran Joe Hartman, captain and pitcher, to keep the Carnegie boys off the bases by air-tight they have not yet mastered the control feature.
