Gallant Fox May Equal Zev's-Mark Washington Pitcher Crawled Up on Big Swatter. When Tom Zaehary was with the Washington team he used a trick of standing In front of the rubber and pitching from a dlstnnce several feet closer to the batter than the regulalion distance. The batters had to watch Zarh closely to keep him trom standing on their toes. Oyster Joe Martina, who spent a season with the Nationals, thought Zach's trick nn excellent one to be used In case of emergency. He reserved his first use of It for the emergency of holdiug a one-run lead with two on and Bube Ruth at bat, Bucky Hnrris, who was managing the team, ran oYer to the box to caution .Martina to be ,·e•·y careful. Joe waived Buct'y back. saying, "Don't worry, boy, I'll stop this guy. I'm gouna walk up a few feet and bust one past his whiskers so fast he'll think I'm throwing express trains at him." "J walked up, all right,'' said Mar· 'tina In telllug the story afterwards. "I moved five feet In front of the box. wound up and blazed away. Ituth swung and I ducked. When I got up the ball was dropping In the center field bll'achers for the longest hit I ever ll:lW in my life and the old ball game was gone." A younger brother of "Goose" Goslin of the Washington cluh bids fair to be the baseball flower of the family, according to tile famous "Goose." "He is nineteen and weighs 190,'' says the "Goose." "He is only six feet and will stand two m01·e years of growth before he wllf be big enough to show he Is the best pluyer In the Goslin rumily. "1'hP other day, playing with the high school team, he drove out a homer, a double and a triple. He cuts the hall from the port side, ships It far and fast. There are several • scouts nlrently looking him over. 1 don't think he will go to college, anti it you want a fast. dan~erous outfielder, look O\·er the kid." Coach Glenn Thistlethwaite of Wisconsin believes he has found a good tackle for his Bagder football eleven next fall In Greg Kabat, fullback from 1\Iilwaukee, who was moved Into the line. Another former major leaguer has turned umpll·e. 'l1Je latest ex-bil( leaguer who Is now calling balls and strilieS and close plays is Bert Dan· leis. Bert played with the Yankees about a deeade ago in the outfield, and In his palmiest days was said to be one of the fastest fly chasers In the business. The Hoosier reinsman, Sep Palin, Is preparing tile four-year-oltl Contender (2 :04%.) for a trip through the Grund Circuit the coming season. racing in the handicap events which are to be staged at practically every meeting of the major circuit. This young trotter was the Iron horse of the 1929 season, starting In no fewer than fifteen races and· finishing first or second In all but two of them. Joe Sewell, Cleveland veteran, ended his consecutive game streak In Boston arter participating In 1,103 games. His mark Is second to that of Everett Scott, who played In 1,307 contests In a row. Georges Vezina, immortal hockey goalle, sta1·te<l his Ice career when he was eighteen years old and played tor eighteen more with Les Canadians. Many experts claim he was the greatest net custodian of all time. Gallant Fox With Sande Up. By his suct'esslve victories In the Wood!'~, Preakness and Kentucky derby, In all of which be came from behind when called upon to win, drawing away easily, Uallnnt Fox has won approximately $138,000, and there does not seem 11ny sound reason to suppose that any of the horses that finished behind him In these three l'lch stakes can beat him In any of the races to come. tml~>.ss the son of Sir Galahad lll should stale orr suddenly. The real d11mce for an upset in the three-year-old division Is tor some of last yeur's crack juveniles that have not been seen under colors so far can be got ready In time to whip Gallant Fox. Such a list Includes the Whitney pair. Whlrhone and Boojum, Caruso. HI-.Jark and one or two others. Sllould none of these disappointments of 10::!0 get Into condition and none arrive on the scene to cha!len~e the supremacy of Gallant Fox In the threeyear-old division, It Is by no means Impossible that the Woodward <.'Olt can reach or rome close to the all-time purse and stake winning record of Zev, which stands at $313.000.

Wood's statistics, complied for the 1929 year, show there were 33 fouls in 355 heavyweight lights, There were 264 lightweight fights and only ten fouls.

Many Racing Events Are Wrongly Labeled Derby A glance at the conditions governing most of the events that are labeled "Derbies" proves that they desene the title less than some events which are not so called. For example: The Tin Juana, the Louisiana, the Kentucky, the Fairmount, the American and several smnller "Derbies" are not rightly called by this name because they do not fulfill the distance condition of the true derby, which Is at one and one-half miles. l\Iost of them do not conform to derby weight conditions, which call for 126 pounds for colts and 121 for fillies. The only two major three-year-old feature races run under approximate derby conditions are the Belmont Stakes (sometimes referred to as the "Belmont derby") and the Latonia derby. Texas and Harvard to Meet on the Gridiron With prospects bright for a power· !ul football team during the next two years, the University of Texas has scheduled some stilT tilts including one Intersectional game with Harv11rd. '£he schedule for 1930 Is complete, while only one open date remains on the 1!)31 program. The only out-ofstate school to be met In 1930 Is the UniYersity of Oklahoma. In 1931, however, three schools outside of Texas will play the Longhorns. They are: University of Missouri, October 3, at Austin; Harvard, October 24, at Cambridge, and the University of Okla· homa at Dallas.
