Luis Angel Flrpo, arriving from Colon Thursday was greeted by a demonstration such as is seldom accorded distinguished visitors to Peru, cheering throngs lined the dock3 and the main thoroughfares as the boxer left the steamer. Three Louisiana Boys Star With Big Elevens Three native sons of Louisiana are helping to add luster to the gridiron traditions of two members of the "Big Three" ot football. They are William H.

Booth, of Shreveport, Morris Le-gendre and Lyie Richeson, of New Orleans. William H. Booth, son of Mrs. W. H.

Booth, of Shrcveport, has been playing tackle on the Princeton eleven in every game this season. This is his second year at the Nassau institution, having entered there from V. M. I. in the fall of 1922.

He also played on the varsity of the "Flying Squadron" of the cadets. His work as a forward has received much favorable comment from sport critics and writers of the East in the games played by the Nassau Tigers. The New York Herald commenting editorially in their sports section recently concerning Princeton prospects and personnel has this to say in part: "Legendre is a fine defensive back, Stout is a good end, and Emery and Booth both did some good work in the line." Morris Legendre is rated one of Princeton's most powerful backs this season. He is a great punter and passer and is able to smash the line or skirt the ends. He played fullback on Tulane's great 1921 team.

Lyie Richeson is one of the Yale Bulldog quarterbacks this season. He is slated to start the game at the signal calling position against Brown university Saturday. His work in the early games attracted favorable attention from the Bulldog coaches, and he is now a regular. Richeson was quarter on Tulane's 1920 and 1921 teams, and is considered one of the foremost players ever produced at the New Orleans institution. As generally expected Delante wonT the Derby In Handy fashion, tie was quoted as one to three by the bettors and was heavily played.

Jockey Zander took Delante to the front at the start and after setting a fl pace for quite a stretch, again took the horse in hand, rounding the back stretch, and the field moved up, Martha Moore and Judge Price getting close. On rounding in the home stretch Delante moved away from hi field and won a his rider pleased. Martha Moore was second, Judge Price was third. The only surprise of the final day of the meeting was In the victory scored by St. Kane.

He ws quoted at four to one and was practically overlooked by the bettor. St. Ran made a hard fight in the itretch to finish in front of Marshall Ttljhman, who was quoted at three to one. Mar- hull Tilghman got the jump on his field at the nap of the barrier but tired in the trtch running. The ten-year-old gelding, Budweiscr, finished third.

Bula Maid ran the first race of four furlongs in 4-5. beating out Miss Spears, second choice of the speculators. St. Inson was third. Phron Wrd and Little Beauty wero looked to as rivals 'for lirst place in the second race and they finished ahead of their fields, with Phrone Ward in first place.

Kitty McCue. who, on two previous occasions, was left at the post, finished third. Jockey Mickey Frey furnished the spectators with a thrill when he made a runaway race with Hoi inga in the fourth. Mickey took Horinga to the lead early in the race and on rounding the home stretch he put many yards of daylight between his mount and the second horse. Frey was the "baby jock" at the Fair Grounds meeting, but showed plenty of class as a pigskin artist.

Horsemen predict a bright future for him. With the exception of the derby the contest for lady riders was the most popular event on the race program and it was won hy Miss France Marston, Tiding Banter. Five starters were in the race of the lady riders. Number one was Minnie, ridden by Gertrude Reynolds; number two, Diamond, ridden by Mary Marston; number three, Lee, ridden by Dorothy Richardson; number four, Banter, ridden by Frances Marston; number five, Topsey, ridden by Mrs. I.

Lamb. Banter went into the lead from the start and Miss Marston showed excellent skill in controling her mount. She won by 70 yards. Diamond was slow getting started, but overtook Lee, 70 yards from the wire and won second place. Topsey was fourth.

Minnie refused to leave the post with the other horses, and after hard urging Miss Reynolds dropped out of the race. zJ2 Station.

Founded American Football Association. An opportunity to score on a kick arises whenever the ball is held inside the opponent's forty-yard line. The score may be effected by either a rush. dsss. or scoring kick.

The scoring kick that is the drop or placement kick should never ne usea when the opponents are ahead and more than three points are necessary to win. It is most effective in the first part of the game, not so much for the points it yields as for Its effect on paving the way for a scoring pass or run on some later occasion. This situation is reduced to rule of thumb as follows: (a) On the first or second time down to the opponent's goal and stopped, kick or pass as may be decided before the game; (b) On the remaining opportunities the attack being stopped, threaten the kick and run or pass. The adroit handling of scoring opportunities marks the expert field captain. (CopyriKht.
