/INS THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, MONDAY, MAY 19, 1930 FOX WINS KENTUCKY DERBY BA ymond Leads All the Way "To Win Historic King's Plate Aymond Leads the Field at Every Post--Whale Oil . Mskes Gallant Bid for Honours, Bit Finishes Second With Ichitaro Third--Large Crowd At. tends Tordhto, May 19.-~What an epic of' the turf! Not like last year's thrilling win by Shorelint, nor like other races that have gone before, but nevertheless a victory that shows the uncertainty that exists, and will continue to exist, in the sport of kings, That's just how it happened at Woodbine Park on Saturday when Aymond, wearing (he scarlet and white colors of Ryland H. New, made every post a winning one In the seventy-first running of the fdstoric King's Plate. He wasn't a pre-race favorite by any means, but what did it matter to this gal- lant son of Roselyon and Ablaze! It was his day, his opportunity, and he did not fail, Last year Shorelint, who got away from the barrier in sixteenth position, overhauled the flying speedsters one by one and flashed doWn the stretch to register a sen- sational victory, On Saturday it was vastly different. As in 1920, eighteen horses faced the barrier and most of then , were very fractious, They milled around, ap- parently nervous end unmanage- able. Granite Rock, most unruly of them all, broke away for oné-quar- ter of a mile gallop and then tried it all over again, All Get a Chance He wasn't the only offender. Many of the thousands of race- goers became impatient, So did those jockeys who had thelr horses well under restraint, but "Mars" Cassidy would not be hastened, He was determined thac all would gct a chance to win the rich prize and Canada's greatest racing event, But it was not until thirteen minutes had elapsed that the barrier went up and they were on their way. And a roar went up from the throng, "They're off." Down to tha judges' stand they thundered us the jockeys strove to get the in- side track at that first turn, but Aymond, superbly ridden by Henry Little, had shoved his nose uot in front as they leaped away and al- though he was directly in the mid- dle of the course he had "foot" enough to get there and grab that vail position, his achievement being ruinous to the chances of the other competitors. Had he failed there might have been another story. : Whale Oil's Great Race Whale Oil; wearing the Thorn- cliife colors, went past the stand in second position, and after rounding the first turn made & courageous attempt to overhaul the gelding from Oakville. Along the back stretch he drew up so close that he appeared to be on oven terms, and thus they raced around 'the last bend, and straight. oned away for the dash to the fin- igh line. It was then, however, that Aymond showed his nettle, Accept- ing the challenge, and still hugging the rail, he seemed Lo travel aster than ever, ard he "pounded in" a winner by a length, the time beicg 1.57 1-5. It was a two-horsa race, Whale 0i1 beating Ichitaro by two lengthy to take second place. Ichitare car- ried the heavy Iimpost of 23 pounds, but made a "game" effort to overhaul the ' leaders. 'Vestip, coupled with Aymond in the R, H. New entry, was outrun early, but evuentully © worked his way up lo close with a great burst.of speed and tock fourth position. The Sea- gram horges and Varsity, from the Thorneliffe Stable, were never prominent, Pandorous, of whom much was expected, was a disap- pointment. RED ACES PRACTICE The Red Ace Juveniles will hold a practice at Alexander Park to- morrow night starting at 6,30 p.m, Everyone is asked to be out, Oshawa Golf Club Active Handicap Sweepstakes were the or- der of the day at the Golf Club on Saturday and attracted a latge cgowd of competitors.

COURT POSITION Court position is one, of the most iniportant elements in tennis and the fund tals, are simple, Court posis tion means "Be in the right position | the. court atthe right time." To be caught "out'of position" is gragic. To catch or workiyour opponent out of 'position is the ultimate end and object, of «very stioke and move in the game. There arg only two posi tions on, the: court where it is safe or successful to Be. First in the back court, 2 or 3" feet behind the bases line centre, and second approximates five or six feet' fram; the net, NEVER BE Sous IN THE CENTRE OF YOUR COURT, it is Tennis Swicide. The' first position at the baseline should become your home office, front where you go and do your job and return, There should be no variance: from this procedure. Kee your home office in' your mind at all times. When the opportunity agrives for you to go'to 'the net -- GO AT ONCE and carry out your objective, which: is to put the ball away. If you are forced big go directly to the "home office" and pre- pare forthe next move. It is one or the other at all times, To main- tain and use these positions to full advantage the ball must be kept in play at all cost. \ {Make this law and keep it ~KEEP YOUR EYE 'ON THE BALL ~ AND GET THE BALL OVER THE NET, Kentucky Derby Is Won by Gallant Fox and Earl Sande Earl Sande Rides Gallant Fox to Popular Victory in Historic Kentucky Derby Gallant Knight Finishes Second Churchill Downs, Louisville, Ky., May 19---Champions, every inch of them, and every foot of the way, Earl Bande and Gallant Fox proved an unbeatable combination Satur. day by galloping through the rain to vietory in the 66th running of the classic Kentuckey 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, Karl!" they shouted again, as Sande and Gallant Fox swerved into the home stréteh, spraying the closet contenders with mud, Decisive Victory And come on he did, with a fin- ish s0 magnificently convineing as to leave not the slightest doubt that the highly favored Hastern combin- ation outclassed the field of crack thre-year-olds, Time for the mile and a quarter wag 2.07 3-0.
