FRIDAY, JULY 12, 1929 Eli PASO EVENING POST Mud Again Handicaps Blue Larkspur in American Derby SOFT MUSIC FROFESSOR tOE HERMANN has a perfect right to grab the- old bandanna and shed a few tears. I have every reason to believe the manager of Chato Laredo cannot be tickled pink over what occurred in the Juarez Bullring Wednesday night. Just as Hermann was receiving the adulations of admirers for piloting Laredo thru some hard fights and making him a near-champion In the eyes of some critics, the Mex- ican boy gets beat. As every fighter must lose sooner of later, that is not so toi lose to an unknown boxer, a sup- posed Hermann grow all the more remorseful. that my boys must be beaten sooner or later, I always try to get the promoters to bring the best to El Paso to fight one fight manager tells me.

is less humiliation in getting beaten by a fellow with a good record than cne who is he adds. All cf which is hard and sound logic. Jinx Trails Bradley Nag Three Times 1 8 Horses to Start in Race On Chicago Track Saturday BY BERT DEMBX United Press Staff Correspondent elements seem to have a grievance against Blue Larkspur. Regarded by many as the best fast was even better than Pancho, was track three-year-old of the year, put in the ring against Bud laylor Larkspur three times has encoun- And Pancho Villa, the boy who popularized the 112-pound class, met I death in a similar way.

The next morning they found him sleeping peacefully to awaken. NOT A BUM NO SIR! ven if Palacio come to El Paso hailed as a champion or boasting: that he had beaten all the good flyweights, you call him a bum by any means.

Three or four Filipinos to my knowledge have fought in El Paso. All of the fierce little fellows from Uncle lonely outpost have given the fans here every worth of money they paid to get into the fight. And Palacio appears to be more classsy than any of the Filipinos who have preceded him here. a pretty hard puncher, has whirlwind speed and courage and has plenty of that thing called color. LOSES BIG FORTUNE ETE called him Perpetual something like $220.000 over a period of three years in the ring.

His love for cards proved his undoing, and he squandered his fortune in a short time. Now, nearly blind, he is an elevator boy in San Francisco. Johnny Hill was another great Filipino, having as much or more potential ability than the others. he failed to take care of himself and is now working aboard a coast steamship. All of them great crowd pleasers, the Filipinos, have either been unfortunate or poorly equipped to take care of themselves outside the ring.

LAREDO STOCK DOWN loss to Palacio ruin him as an attraction here, i but his stock went down consider- ably. He and his manager are con! fident that a rematch will reverse the score, and perhaps they are not; wrong. The Mexican battler had the idea I that he was meeting a tered mud in important races and it appeared Friday that the will handicap him again when he starts in the $75,000 American classic here Saturday. The Arlington park track was soaked thoroly by rain Thursday and showers were predicted for Friday afternoon. Until the rain fell, Larkspur was the favorite in the but the 1 wet track sent the odds on Clyde Van Dusen and Windy City scurrying downward.

Van Dusen won the Kentucky derby in mud and Windy City took the American derby in heavy going. The rain was a blow to Col. E. R. Bradley, Blue owner, but he was undauhted in his dtermina- tion to start his horse.

Eighteen horses are expected to start. Larkspur, Van Dusen, Dr. Freeland and Windy City are weighted the heaviest, each carrying 126 pounds. Milward gets in with 114 pounds, and Rose of Sharon carries only 116. Many believe there are no three-year-olds today who can give Rose a ten pound weight advantage and beat her.

Here are five of the hod-earriers of lads who hosr the cheers, but always working hard to win. Left to are: (Mike) Gonzales, catcher for the Chicago Cubs; Earl Combs, Yankee outfielder; Miller of the Athletics; Itijfss Stephenson of the Cubs and Wally Scbang of the St. Louis Browns. the tumult and the shouting are passed around, a ccrtain nu mber of gilt-edged heroes get all the gravy, and everybody forgets about guys who carried the hod. But just try to build a ball club or a hanty without Every ball club has them.
