He gathered his point total In 84 games, getting 51 point in four recent contests. The only thing that worries me about him is that he may not feel like running tomrrrow.

Tarn, a trainer who just won the $500 trainers award for the second time during this Hialeah meeting, saw Top Row as the winner. There's a little story behind Tarn and Top Row. In 1934 Top Row ran in a $3,500 claiming race at Narragansett. Immediately after the race Tarn dashed to the office with a check to claim the horse. He beat A. A. (Bert) Baroni to the desk by a yard. But Baroni got the horse when it found that Tarn had not started a horse at the meeting and therefore was not eligible to make a claim. Last year Top Row won $97,720 for Baroni, and tomorrow he stands a good chance of doubling that.

The majority of those questioned believe that when the numbers go up on the board, Alfred Gwynn Vanderbilts champion will be on top. But there some loud dissenters. One of these was Big Jim Healy, trainer for Mrs. John Hay Whitney. If it's muddy, and it looks as if it will be, Healy said, whats wrong with Singing Wood? They say Singing Wood cant go that distance, but remember, a soft track adds a lot of staying power to a sprinter, yessir, if its wet Singing Wood can run for Ms Dough. And if it's dry.

It was Coach Joe Call's makeshift lineup which included Roe and Cutler, two reserves, at center, and guard, respectively, that carried the play into the Grizzly territory. James, Logan's smooth working center wno seemed to be slipping cogs, caged another foul pitch to open the second period but a foul toss by Smith and Moser's first field goal gave Preston a lead of 7 to 2.
