(By Associated Press)
LOUISVILLE, Ky., May , 14. -
Whiskery, Harry Payne Whitney's
chestnut son of Whiskbroom II andt
Prudery, won the fifty-third Kentucky
Derby here today. He won just as he

had been expected to win by beating
Osnand and Jock in a sensational
drive down the stretch.
His time for the mile and a quarter
was 2 minutes 6 seconds, 2 3-5 sec-
onds slower than Old Rosebud's rec-
ord of 2 minutes 2 2-5 seconds.
The pari-mutuels in which tlie
Whitney entry of Whiskery and Bos-
onian was the favorite, showed the
surprisingly good odds of $6.50 on
each $2 traigbt ticket. The entry
paid $3.80 to place and $3.40 to show,
Osmand paid $6.40 and $5.80 while
Jock paid $14.20 to show.
Jock, which was destined to set the
pace and then falter- in the stretch
pranced on the track in front. Then
came the others, each being accorded
an ovation by those who were pulhng
for im to win.
They paraded past the club house
and then back, down before the
grapdstands to the starting post at
at the head of the stretch. Hydromel
was a bit fractious ,nd broke the bar-
rier for a sprint down the track. He
was soon brought under control by
Jockey W. Garner and at 5:10 o'clock
the journey began.
Jock, from the rail position proved a
"uI at the barrier" and was on top
in he jump. Down the stretch the
75- horses charged each pursuirg the
flying leader and making for the rail.
Past the quarter pole they fled,
Jock increasing his lead with every
jump. Earl Sande, on Osmand, was
about iis business in a hurry and
moved into second position withl
Scapa Flow third.r
Around the first turn they tore,.
Jock in front and apparenly going
away. Behind Osmand and Scapa
Flow the others were making their
bids .but there wasn't a chance for
any except one, Linus McAttee, wear-
ing the light blue and white sashed
blouse of the Whitney stable. His
mount, Whiskery, mnoved to one side
and bettered ] position.
Sande timed his move with the first
faltering steps by Jock and on the
back stretch began his drive. Os-I
mand, the sprinter they called him
was sprinting; sprinting as he never
hai before. Around the last turn and
into the head of the stretch they
came, their stout hearts willing but
their bursting muscles weakening all
save one, Whiskery.
On the outside, while Jock and Os-
mand were settling for the present
the question of supremacy, Whiskery
came fast to finish ahead in front of
Osmand. Jock was third, two lengths
back.
Trailing in for an eighth-of a mile
down the track came Hydromel, Bos-,
tonian, winner of Preakness, Buddy
Bauer, Royal Julian, Fred Jr., Scapa
Flow, Black Panther, Kiev, Rolled
Stocking, Rip Rap, Bewithus, and War
Eagle in the order named.

To the East the grime of city smoke

Rain threatened throughout the af-

It mattered not that showers fell,

swirled away at straw hats.

Ted lHlrnberger
Fast two miler of Steve Farrell's
track team ran the feature races of
the two dual meets held on Ferry
field this season. Last Saturday
Hornberger trailed the heels of
Hunn, Conference indoor two mile
champion and cross country winner
last fall, for seven and a half laps
of the Ferry field track and in the
home stretch opened up a sprint that
to( k him to /the tape while Hunn
was twenty yeards in the rear.
The same thing occurred in the
meet with Illinois yesterday when
Hornberger was splattered with mud
from the flying feet of Fairfield for
more than seven and three-quarters
laps of the track. He again showed
the same sprint on the last 220 yards
of the race beating Fairfield by more
than five yards.

Fresh from yesterday's 6-0 victory x w
over the previously unbeaten Illini I

Iverine baseball team now at .500 in

3innesota Netimen IVill Oppose flich-
Iga n in First Conference atch
at Ferry Field
Michigan's tennis team, prevented
from meeting Indiana yesterday onj
account of rain, will endeavor to re-,
peat its victory over Ohio State when1
it plays the Minnesota netmen at 31
o'clock tomorrow afternoon in the
first home Conference match of the
1927 season.
The teams are rather evenly match-,
ed according to the results of pre-
vious contests, Minnesota having
gained a victory over Wisconsin six
matches to three, and Michigan de-
feating the Ohio State netmen, six to
one, in the only Conference matches
played by the teams to date.
The playing order of the Michigan
team has not yet been definitely de-I
termined, but Barton, Alyer and'
Goldsmith will probably play one,
two, three against Shay, Armstrong,,
and John of Minnesota. The num-
ber of matches has not yet been de-
cided upon, five singles and two!
doubles, or six singles and threej
doubles being the possibilities. In
the latter case Moore, Stephens, Capt.
Olian, and Schafer will probably all
see action.
Against these men Minnesota will
oppose Capt. Tatham, Flanagan, and
Cornell, any of whom may displace
the first three nen before the meet.
The Gopher team is a very well bal-
anced outfit. Their greatest strength
lies in the doubles, where they made
a clean sweep of the three matches
against Wisconsin. Armstrong and,
John will meet Barton and Moore,
Michigan's sophomore dbubles combi-I
na/ion, in the first doubles match.1
Shay and Cornell will oppose an un-
determined Wolverine pair in the!
second doubles match of the meet.

Northwestern Golfers Will1 Oppose
11ieigan. Team Tomorrow
On Ann Arbor Links
Wolverine golfers will enter their
third dual Conference golf meet of
the season when they oppose the
Northwestern university team tomor-
row on the Ann Arbor golf links. The
teams will begin playing the indivi-
dual matches at 9. o'clock tomorrow
morning. The foursomes will be
played in the afternoon.
Michigan has had, a successful seai-
snn so far and has an equal chance
to dispose Qf the Wildcat golfers.
Both Northwesteyn and Michigan lost
to the Purdue outfit at Lafayette.
j. Thomas C. Trueblood, retired head.
of the public Apeaking department
anrl originator of , the intercollegiat e
golf meets in-the Big Ten, has spent
much ~time with the Wolverine golf-
ers thisspring, going with them on
their recent trip to Lafayette and Ur-
bana. Under the .utelage of Coach
Trueblood the -Michigan golf team is
now in a position to make a bid for
the dual meet title of the Conference.
rAfter the Northwestern meeting Mon-
day the Wolveines will have com-
pleted the first half of their dual
meets.
The Northwestern team is encount-
ering many difficulties this2season
after a victorious year in 1926 when
it won the team championship of the
Big Ten. Most of the men were
graduated, and at present there ere
but two veterans available for' the'
team.
Bill -Miller, a junior, and Louis
Scultz are the. only old men that
Coach Kranz has to work with. Mil-
ler, captain of the Wildcats, has
played number one in the meets so
far. The rest of the team is ,com-
posed of sophomores.
