Occasionally his eye wandered over to a nearby paddock where another boy, not so neatly attired, was cooling out a horse. Scores of men walked past, paying little or no heed to the except to wish "him good morn ing." The horse attracted even less attention as he walked round and round the small circle, almost like a robot Suddenly a broad smile broke the boy's countenance. Then with a sigh of contentment, he settled back into his chair with an air that said all's right with the world. Feared Combination And content he might well be for the boy is Wayne Wright; the horse, J. E.

Widener's Brevity. Together they form the feared combination for the 62nd running of the Kentucky Derby Saturday. Brevity is feared because of his great speed, Wright because ht not only ranks among the leading riders, but he's on a winning streak. Jockeys say that when a rider is hot, he's mighty tough to stop. Already the 21-year-old Rex-burg, Idaho, blond veteran has won -three stakes of more than $150,000 this year.

"Why shouldn't I feel confident," asked Wright. "He's beaten everything that's opposed him this year and in a manner that left little to be desired." Throng Louisville That just about tells the "belief of horsemen and laymen alike, as they thronged into the city today. Except for a scattered few, they went no farther than Brevity when asked to name their selection for the derby. The complexion of the race was changed some, as the result of yesterday's developments, but Brevity was not affected. Mrs.

Three -fine SEMI-FINAL SCRAP BOOKED THURSDAY Red Ruffing pitching performances were turned in, with Charley Ruffing, the big Yankee flinger, topping the others CHICAGO, April 29. The minor, leagues today had won the opening round in their fight against the broadcasting of major league baseball games, but there'll be no decision in the "air battle" until the major leagues hold their joint meeting next December.

Kenesaw Mountain Landis, commissioner of baseball, ruled yesterday that "pending further notice all major and minor leagues and clubs will refrain from making an additional commitments, arrangements or authorizations for radio broadcasts of baseball games." Landis refused to commit himself as to whether the ruling meant broadcasts would be banned next season. William Harridge, president of the American league, said "the protest by the minor league clubs did not concern broadcasts by big stations' directly from major league parks so much as it did broadcasts of major league games by telegraphic report from smaller stations in minor league territory." Harridge said "the practice has grown and something must be done to protect the minors." Landis said minor league clubs playing night ball felt broadcasts helped their attendance. Those playing in the afternoon, however, object strenuously to the broadcasts, he said. with a four-hit shutout over the Ross High school's track team, victors over Toledo Libbey In a dual meet at Toledo last Saturday, will have no competition this weekend, Coach Harold (Whltey) Althoff said Wednesday. The coach is making efforts to book a practice meet for Friday or Saturday with a Class team in this dsitrict.

If an engagement is obtained, it will not be a regularly scheduled affair and will not count in the season's records. Buckeye Meet As it stands now, the next time the Ross Little Giants will taste competition will be at the Buckeye High school league meet at Find-lay May 9. With Sandusky's Blue Streaks already a cinch bet for first place, Ross will concentrate on getting enough points to annex runnerup position, which they also won last year. After the Buckeye meet, the district meet will be held at Bu-cyrus. Top honors in this affair will also go to Sandusky, everyone agrees.

The Streaks have one of their strongest teams in years and have already won the Mansfield relays and second place in the Ohio Wesleyan relays. Balanced Team Strength of the Little Giant team this season appears to be in "balance" and in ability to grab second and third placss. Most of the team is inexperienced, and members will enter the Buckeye meet with only one dual meet for seasoning purposes. The Little Giant tracksters are working out each day at Harmon Field and at the Fairgrounds, but are handicapped because of lack of a place to get in serious training. Indians.

Ruffine Ditched perfect ball for five innings, Billy Sullivan of the season gives Fremont four games at home on Sundays. The first "at home" Sunday attraction will offer a double header. Mansfield will be here on May 24, and two games will be played for the fans. On June 7, neighboring Fostoria will come to Fremont for a single contest, and on June 14, those arch rivals from Sandusky will invade the farm lands of the Cincinnati Reds. The other Sunday attraction will be June 28, when the Tiffin Mudhens come here for a bargain bill (two games).

Now let's see what the schedule offers in the way of holiday games. On Decoration day, Fremont will go to" Sandusky for two games, and on July 4, Fremont will entertain Sandusky for two contests. So out of the ten games which Fremont will play with Sandusky during the first ialf, four will be on holidays and two on Sundays. Looks like the schedule makers were banking heavily on that old Fremont-Sandusky rivalry to attract the crowds.

Several other preliminaries will be announced Thursday, promoters declared. Approximately 30 rounds will be on the card. Rookie Winner Harry Kelley. the 30-vear-old CHICAGO, April 29 FP Regardless of where Kansas City finishes in the American Association race, the Blues this season are going down as one of the most courageous clubs ever to represent Kansas City in the circuit. They kept up their habit of coming from behind yesterday, scoring four runs in the third and five more in the sixth to beat Columbus 11-7 after the Red Birds had compiled a five-run lead.

The victory gave the Blues a record of nine wins and two defeats on their first eastern invasion, in which they climbed to the top of the standings. St. Paul made a clean sweep of the Saint's four-game series with Louisville, taking the final tilt 9-1 behind the eight hit pitching of Glenn Spencer. The Colonels played without their manager, Burleigh Grimes, who was suspended because of a run-in with umpire O'Brien last Sunday. Indianapolis trimmed the champion Minneapolis Millers 5-4 by staging a four-run eighth inning rally topped off by Johnny Riddle's slashing single which drove home the winning marker.

Bill Bean, Miller's pitcher, held the Tribe to four hits and one run up to the eighth, when the Indians got four straight hits, a long fly, and Riddle's safe clout.

Valley Dairy, leaders in the Recreation league, took two games from Haaser's Produce to hold their crown, Tuesday night at the Recreation alleys.

His letter was written in tell-tale feminine handwriting and we could almost visualize him telling his "best girl" just what to write in the letter. Who knows, maybe they're waiting until Lovitsch draws his first $30-per-month check from the Fremont team before they pair up.
