BY LESLIE AVERY
NEW YORK, April 30 (UP)
The New York Giants and the St.
Louis Cordinals are feuding again.
The sight of William (Memphis
Bill) Terry and his Giants stalk-
ing into Sportsmans Park appar-
ently has tho same effect on the
Gashouse Gang as a red flag has
to a bull. ,
The feud began in 1934
the Giants, with the
q League title all but clinched, lost
I the pennant to the Cards on the
final day of the season.
Last year the Giants held the
league lead nearly four months
before the Cardinals moved ahead
in an eight-game winning streak
History repeated itself yesterday
as Leroy Parmelee bested Carl
Hubbell in a 17-inning pitchers
duel which the Cards won, 2 to 1
Both teams played nearly perfect
ball for more than three hours
and a half before the Giants
cracked in the 17th, committed two
errors, and tossed away the ball
game. St. Louis Nicked Hubbell
for 11 hits, five more than were
given by ex-Giant Parmelee, who
struck out nine. Hubbell tanned
six.
What looms as one of the most
interesting matches from the fans’
standpoint, ever to be' reeled off
in Henderson is on tap for to-
night when Whiskers Savage,
burly Kentucky hill-billy, and
Milo Steinhorn, former circus
strong-man, crawl into the ring
at Fair Park Auditorium for a
finish wrestling match. The match
headlines the weekly mat card and
will be supported by a one-hour
melee between two big favorites
here, Dick Lever and Dan O’Con-
nor, another match that is expect-
ed to furnish the fans with thrills
a plenty.

A new leader topped the standings in the Texas baseball
league Thursday. Tulsa had the honor.
The Oilers, previously tied with the Dallas Steers in
third, left the Steers behind and jumped over the Houston
Buffaloes and the Oklahoma City Indians to take their place
----r, at the top of the heap.
They got there by defeating the
Buffaloes, 5 to 2, behind Mil-
stead’s 5-hit pitching in Wednes-
day’s game.
While Tulsa was winning, Okla-
homa City had the sorry experi-
ence of losing to the Jowly Gal-
veston Buccaneers, a team just
one step removed from the cellar.
The Bucs had to fight for ten in-
nings to do it, but finally beat out
the Indians, 8 to 7. Three Gal-
veston runs in the seventh inning
sent Stiely, the Indians' first
pitcher, to the showers, and Brill-
heart took his place. W. Davis,
Jakucki and T. Davis did mound
duty for Galveston, allowing give
hits.
Dallas, which could have jump-
ed up to a tie for first place by
winning Wednesday, lost its game
and dropped down to fifth, in-
stead. Beaumont's Exporters
i took the Steers to camp, 4 to 3.
when Ware won a pitchers’ duel
with Sal Gliatto.
For a downright surprise, tho
Fort Worth Cats suddenly came
to life and won their first victory
in thirteen starts. They defeated
the San Antonio Missions, 7 to
5, on the latters’ home grounds.
Shealey was the winning pitcher.
The teams shift Thursday, pair-
ing off as follows: Dallas at San
Antonio: Fort Worth at. Beau-
mont; Tulsa at Galveston, and
Oklahoma City at Houston.

New
York World-Telegram and a
former breeder of saddle mares,
suggested Omaha. Knowing that
Colonel Williams was mane
tail in love with horses, and
a great authority on
switched mj- selection,
my bets.
So you see, a year ago I knew
nothing. Now, 1 don’t mind say-
ing, 1 know everything. About
horses, that is. For six months
1 have belabored myself with
facts about the horse. I didn’t
hurry myself at first, but started
very gradually. The first thing
I read was Black Beauty. From
that J went to poetry, reading
and re-reading “The Midnight
Ride of 1’aul Revere.” With this
a background, 1 branched out in-
to the structure of the horse him-
self. The encyclopedia brittanica
was my first step, and when 1 had
finished with the volume dealing
with the horse (ha to hy) 1 not
only knew about racing horses,
but was ready to fit comfortably
in any company where the an-
cestry of the Arabian stallion,
the horse power (per cubic inches)
of the percheron, or courage of
the Clydesdale, were common sub-
jects for discussion.
As for the racing horse, I know
him from hock to withers, and
back again. The very fact that
I use such words as "hock” and
"withers” is proof that I know
the horse just as some men know
furniture re-upholstering, milk
pasteurizing, and Archery. But
for the benefit of those who still
might be doubtful of command of
“la horsee,” as the French say,
I will tell you that a horse’s can-
nobones should be sloping and his
pasterns (same as withers) should
be short. No, wait a moment.
I’m wrong there. It’s his croup
that should be sloping and his
spavins that should be short.
It is with this knowledge that
I shall name the derby winner.
It won’t be guess work. 1 won’t
fool around with past perform-
ances, condition of the track,
ability to carry weight and that
sort of sophomoric dilly daddle.
To pick the winner I will simply
move from stable to stable, giv-
ing each candidate what horse
judges term the “once over” and
"double-0.” 1 shan’t allow the
horses to see me, for as every
expert knows, a sensitive horse
will move heaven and earth, and
undergo great pain, in an effort
to conceal defects from the eyes
of a judge. One of the stories
we experts like best to tell is of
the three-legged show horse who,
while being judged in the ring,
insisted on lying down on its side.
He won blue ribbons three years
before his fraud was discovered.
When 1 finally announce my
derby winner on Saturday you
may rest assured that you’re get-
ting a horse which, even if he
doesn’t win, closeup resembles the
animal described in the encyclo-
pedia. That alone, if you’re not
a greedy person who bets in tha
hope of winning, should be enough.
