Victor over the Utah Aggies by a lop-sided score, the Brigham Young university track and field team meets a more dangerous opponent op-ponent Saturday at Salt Lake City in a dual meet with the University Univer-sity of Utah cindermen. Coach Ott Romney's conference champion outfit is favored to win, but the Utah squad which boasts such performers as Ernest Barlow, Bar-low, miler; Knewell Rushforth, high jumper; Maurice Williams, negro sprinter; Jack Thornley, javelin thrower, and other outstanding out-standing men, is capable of putting put-ting up a bitter contest. The Cougars are powerful; more powerful even than last year when they walked off with the conference con-ference title with more than 20 points to spare. Strong in both hurdle events, pole vault, middle distances and in fact all the way through, they will be tough to beat. Standout Performers Hugh Cannon should take first in the discus; George Goutiey is likely to capture the pole vault, with his brother Lee fighting with Veil Wilde for second place, Cliff Warner is favored for the broad jump in a brilliant duel with Rush-forth, Rush-forth, Dale Schofield and Pete Wilson will be hard to defeat in the hurdles, Ernest Dean is the "Y" two-mile specialist who should ' come in first, John Verney looks ; like a cinch in the shot put.

LOUISVILLE, Ky., May 2 Severe training periods for the few chosen thoroughbreds considered consid-ered worthy to start in the 61st running of the Kentucky derby, Saturday, ended yesterday. Only a handful of the 110 prgfnal nominees nomi-nees announced two months ago remained. Today, brown colt of C. V. Whitney, will likely be the post favorite, as the result of excellent performances in training. He dashed a mile and one-eighth in 1:55.2, completing the full derby route of a mile and a quarter in 2:08.8, galloping out the remaining eightfi of a mile. Colonel E. R. Bradley's Boxthorn furnished the outstanding effort of the pre-derby training grind, however, how-ever, by a spTh over the full route in 2:06.8. Plat Eye, from the Greentree stable of Mrs. Payne Whitney, also went the full route, in 2:10. E. D. Shaffer's St. Bernard, Ber-nard, regarded as a "dark horse," breezed the ten furlongs in 2:08.2. Blackbirder went the route in 2:08 handily. Whiskolo, winner of Tuesday's preparation race, did not run Wednesday, nor did Roman Soldier or Nellie Flag. Joseph E. Widener's Chance Sun was sent back to its farm, a victim of ringbone. The winter book favorite was regarded as a splendid colt, but not ready for the race.

Tracksters STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Cal., May 2 (U.R) Training was tapered off today by Stanford's "underdog" track team for its meet here Saturday with the University Uni-versity of Southern California. Most of the experts, at least in the north, already had bowed the wreaths of victory onto the Trojan's heads. There was a little argument as to what the actual score would be and the times, but otherwise the experts had run off the meet. Individual events will attract most of the record crowd expected.

We have no means of knowing whether the learned doctor ever delved into the tomes of baseball, ancient and modern, but it seems that his statement is applicable to baseball more than to any other sport. Back in the Dark Ages of the diamond pastime, southpaws were regarded as heingn from another world. Every time an unorthodox unortho-dox pitcher would walk to the mound, batters would tuick their tongues in their cheeks and mumble mum-ble magic phrases to ward off evil spirits. Lef t-hander8 have been accept ed as matter of fact since, but their idiosyncrasies linger on. V Waddell Was Worry IF you remember Rube Waddell, Connie Mack's old southpaw vho was one of his greatest pitchers, pitch-ers, you probably can recall his "deliberate obstinacy," and demands de-mands for justice for himself. One of the best illustrations of hese characteristics came to light one year when Rube failed to report re-port in the spring. Connie, knowing Waddell's temperamental tem-peramental ways, started searching search-ing in various saloons. He knew the petulant southpaw would be tending bar in one of them. Finally Mack ran across Rube slopping suds over the mahogany. "What's wrong. Rube'.' Aren't the terms light ihia year?" he asked. McSWAIN TAKES RESPONSIBILITY WASHINGTON, May 1 (U.R) Chairman John J.
