There used to be several of these colorful bet makers at the circuit's race meetings, but nowadays the pari mutuals get most of the wa eerine. and for the last two years, old Eli's voice has sounded alone. Even among those who preier tne mutuals, the monotonous, hypnotic, almost musical chant of this auctioneer is regarded as the theme song of the "Big Line's" meetings. For years and years his voice has beat out the patter by which sports men are aavisea oi uie oaas ana exhorted to hurry and make their bets.

An announcement that the British Lawn Tennis Asso ciation would support a proposal made by South Africa suggesting that the Davis Cup be converted from an annual into a biennial competition, caused much adverse comment among tennis notables gathered in London for the Wim bledon championships. The proposal, which will be con sidered by a meeting of delegates from all the Davis Cup nations to be held In London late in July, is certain to meet with strong opposition.

It is understood here that Dwight Davis, the founder of the event, has declared himself in favor of maintaining the yearly competition HAS GREAT FAITH IN CAVALCADE Trainer Smith Compares Him With Man 0' War; to Race Saturday Chicago, July 13, (IP) Smiling Bob Smith, called the foxy grandpa of the American turf, stuck his tongue in his cheek before he decided to answer the question. ''Well, I'll tell you. If he isn't another Man War, he will be the next thing to it," he said. Smith was referring to leading candidate for the 3 year old championship of the American turf for 1934. Cavalcade is expected to settle the qtfstioh beyond doubt with the running of the $45,000 Arlington classic at a mile and a quarter, at Arlington Park, Saturday.

There is much similarity between Cavalcade and the famous Man o' War. Man o' War was a much bigger horse, but for sheer game ness, for speed, Mrs. Isabel Dodge Sloane's sensational 3 year old, does not have to take a back seat from any of them. Trainer Smith knows his horse flesh. Now 66 years old, Smith, ponderous, red faced and bespec tacled, bought Cavalcade two years ago for a paltry $1200 at the Sara toga sales.

This year alone caval cade has won close to $100,000 in winning the Kentucky Derby, the American Derby and the Detroit Derby. The noted trainer of the Brook meade which is owned by Mrs. Sloane, rates Cavalcade' as having the most wonderful disposition of any horse that he has ever handled. Smith says he performs just like a machine, never changes his stride, and has marvelous speed and action. "By that, I mean, he is always in a position to run, even when he is making turns.

He is just like a big friendly dog. I never saw a horse like mm. He is tne same on the track. 'Since the question has been raised as to how I think Cavalcade compares with Man o' War, just let me say that Cavalcade is a wonderful horse, but also remember that old Man o' War was a miracle horse. In gameness and endurance, and probably in speed, too, I think Cavalcade will compare favorapiy witn any norse that ever raced on tne tun.

xnai inciides Man o' War. Smith said Cavalcade was com ing up to the condition for tne classic in marvelous shape, ana that he has no fear of Discovery, the entry of Alfred Vanderbut. "We have met Discovery five times this year, and he has chased Cavalcade home each time," Smith said. "Barring accidents Cavaicaae will win Saturday and become the leading money winning thorough hrer! of th evear."

William Barrv Wood has buried his heroic athletic past to struggle witn sucn scientific terms as "oxidation re duction potential" at the University of Wisconsin. The former all American gridder and hockey and tennis star from Harvard is looking ahead to a ca reer in medicine, devoting himself diligently to the task of prepara tion.

He spent a year at Johns Hopkins after his graduation from Harvard in 1933. and now has become a re search assistant to Dr. I. L. Bald win, professor of bacteriology at Wisconsin.

Shunning conversation about ath letics, Barry now prefers to talk of the mysteries of test tubes. "I'm working in bacteriological growths," he said, "using a poten tiometer to measure the relative volts of my various media, but beyond that I'm not quite sure how I can explain it in non scientific terms. "I think, though, that the work will tie in to some extent with medicine, and the job gives me an opportunity to work under a capable authority. "I'm lucky to get a job in times like these. ELECT MITCHELL AND HE'LL QUIT SanFrancisco, (IP) players of the Pacific Coast League who have suffered at the hands of Clarence Mitchell, veteran spitball pitcher of the Mission club, are hoping his home town, folks of Frank lin county, Nebraska, elect him sher iff this fall.

His campaign 'slogan or promise is "elect Mitchell sheriff, and he will quit pitching baseball." The former major leaguer is carrying on his campaign by mail from his niche in the Missions' dugout. Dur ing his career in the big leagues he spent the off season in Franklin and came out of retirement this year at the request of Manager "Gabby" street of the coast league club. and that his view is endorsed by the American authorities. Italy and Germany, each of whom have won the European zone competition twice in the last seven years, are likely to support America. France is anxious to recover the cup as soon as possible and unlikely to vote for the proposed change, Critics of the South African pro posal point out that a break in Davis Cup continuity would have a serious effect on the championship meetings of tennis playing nations.

The Paris and Wimbledon tour naments, for example, have gained enormously in prestige by the entry of visiting Davis Cup teams, and it is likely that these annual events would suffer severely if the biennial plan were adopted.
