of the way. Earl Sande and Gal-
lant Fox proved an unbestable
combination today by galloping
through the rain to victory in the
(ffthy-sixth running of the clas-
sic .Kentucky Derby.
"Come on, Sande!" roared the
half drenched crowd of 50,000 as
the great jockey took command of
the race on the back stretch and
opened a good lead. "Come on,
>Earl!" :they shouted again as
Sande and Gallant Fox swerved
into the home stretch.

And come on he did with a finish
so magnificently convincing as to
leave not the slightest doubt that
the high favored Eastern combina-

year olds.

off the .early challenge of the K'en-
tucky pride, Tentering, then beat
back the last surging rushes of

Soccer Players Tie
With Ann Arbor Tean
Michigan's all - campus soccer
team battled the Ann Arbor Soc-
cer Club to a 1-1 tie game yester-
day afternoon on South Ferry Field.
Although it was only their third
game of the season, the campus
team fought valiantly to vanquiish,
their local opponents. Throughoutl
the entire first half of the game i;
appeared that the hard work ofj
Coach Johnstone and the conscien-,
ticus practise of his players were
to be rewarded in their first Vic-
tory, but these serious threats toI
push the ball between the goal posts
were stemmed time after time by
the consistent work of the goal ten-
der of the Ann Arbor team.
