COLONEL WYNN MAY RUN DERBY AT HUGE LOSS CHICAGO, Feb. 11 (flVCol. Matt Winn, guiding genius behind the Kentucky Derby for the last forty-one years, figures that staging the Derby at Louisville, May 1 may result in a $100,000 loss.

But that doesn't bother Winn. His burning desire is to keep it's record string of sixty-nine unbroken. Started In 1875 The Derby, America's premier race for three-year-olds, has been run without interruption since 1875. Winn has seen all of them. He witnessed the first from the back seat of his father's wagon parked in the infield of Churchill Downs, home of the Derby at Louisville.

"We have no hope of showing a profit this year," Col. Winn said today. "But that win be' all right. We've had a couple of good years before and can take a loss without crying. "The Derby will be run as sched uled even if only two spectators snow up." REAL ESTATE Sales Rentals MRS.

If and when the Phillies get a new owner and with all the fancy fumbling Just now It looks more like "if" than "when" virtually all National league clubs have prom ised to pitch in and help the loop's bottom outfit with playing material for 1943. It was learned today that, in making the promise at the Tuesday meeting at which the league bought the Phils for resale, all but one of the dub-owners agreed to lend a hand, even if the league is "stuck" with the Phils all season, in which case Bill Terry will be named to run the outfit. Although there were enough, bids coming in to fill a bridge tourna ment, the six-man New York-Philadelphia syndicate originally men tioned still was out in front.

The little corporal stands a fraction of an inch over five feet, and doesn't expect to grow any more, as he is approaching his thirty-eighth birthday. Manch is still a growing boy." This is the first copy of the paper received by Captain Manch and his wife, and it is typically American in content and format. News, pictures, sports, and illustrations comprise the twelve-page issue.

MARKET AUGUSTA COUNTY GRAIN By Swoops Milling Co, Wheat (thoroughly dry and delivered at mill Yellow corn, per bushel 95 White corn, per bushel SUW (All doUveries at the mUU By ROBERT MOORE (Associated Press Staff Writer Arnold (Swede) Umbach, for four years Oklahoma intercollegiate 158-pound mat champion between 1924 and 1928, and now one of Coach Carl Voyles assistants at the College of William and Mary, says that collegffe wrestling is "growing by leaps and bounds." In fact, Umbach has a desire to make a major sport of wrestling at William and Mary and to "go in for it in a big way." "Too many people think of wrestling from the pro angle, while we amateurs don't call pro wrestling really wrestling," Umbach said. We think of it as only putting on a show. Amateur wrestling is built around science, speed, and skill: and pros have gone in more for the punishing holds and, for putting on a good show.
