The TRPB is the protective agency for 40 race tracks in America and it engages in some real cloak-and-dagg- adventures er to get the job done. But mostly it's sensational cases are exposed by good, old fashioned hard labor and diligent research. Due to the possibilities of getting rich quick in horse racing, every crooked brain in the country, it seems, turns toward the race track at one time or another. And it is the former FBI men who run the TRPB who work around the clock to keep the sport honest. is fourth with 88. Take a look at some of the cases: Time Out William Stemmel, a Califor nia breeder, was suspected of falsely registering a foal, with Ortello, a famous Italian bred stud, as the sire. After weeks of research, the investigators finally found out that Stremmel had made 17 false registrations in one year and attempted six the following year. So hectic had been Strero-mel- 's activities that one year he had four foals left without any dams to register them from. (Stremmel was ruled off all jockey club tracks). 2 The TRPB got a tip that a jockey named Nick Restivo was going to stimulate a horse named King Eric. They set up an agent, dressed as a groom, near King Eric's stall. Watching through a d mirror, he caught the jockey and Restivo was given an 'May I see year bunting cense?' suspension. 1 red-hande- th ; 56 fine fierever 1 Kentucky wkiskey 15 enjoyed . . . the call is for C4hK) J Jf J 52 m m If HEBER The Area I Wrestling Meet will be held at the Wasatch Hieh School, Feb. 10, with teams fron South Summit, Uinta, Duchesne, and Wasatch competing, to Wrestling Coach Marion Tree.

With three weeks still to go to the deadline, the big league mag nates already have snared most of their key men. Almost invariably this means that the little fellows will fall meekly into line.

Duke Snider is the latest of the "super stars" to sign on the dotted line, the Brooklyn Dodgers' slugging centerfielder agreeing Monday to a pact estimated at $42,000. Snider said he was "tickled to death" with his new contract but did not reveal "how whopping a raise it was." Likewise, club Vice President Buzzy Bavasi refused to disclose whether Snider or will be the Dodgers' highest paid player in 1956. "I'm not going to set up any competition between my ball play- ers," Bavasi said. "All I'm going to say is that Duke got a very fine raise. He's very happy about it and so are we." The New York Giants, meanwhile, announced they have signed catcher Ray Katt and pitchers John (Windy) McCall and Jim Constable. Katt hit .215 last season, McCall had a 5 record in relief and Constable posted a 12-- 9 record for Minneapolis in the American Assn. 1 f'jSj? 503 452 Wyoming Opponents Utah Opponents Denver Opponents Cam-panell- a, high-ranke- 65-5- TEAM STATISTICS Tot.
