SCHILLING. Next Saturday, when the kingly thoroughbreds march out on the track at the Ak-Sar-Ben Held to par ade to the post, their backs will be graced by some of the best Jockeys in the country. Some of these are strangers to this part of the country, never having ridden here before. A star reinsman who will make his debut here is Freddie Watrous, the dapper little fellow under contract to Lonnie Tryon, w'ho has the crack colt Melaehrino tiere as well as the distance runner JJominator. No rider on the American turf has had a more meteoric career than Watrous. Coming to Tlajuana last November, Watrous joined the Tryon outfit ami learned the ropes by exer cising horses in the mornings. He showed unusual signs of becoming a first class rider and on February 9 of this year Ti yon gave the 17-year-old lad an opportunity lo ride in a race. Given “Leg I p." He was given the "leg up" on Dominator and turned in a creditable performance by finishing third. Then came the day which Watrous w-ill never forget. This was February 11, when he rode the same horse back in a mile and a half gallop. It was over a track deep with mud that Watrous rode this son if Uncle and Sunbonnet to victory, and the youngster won his spurs by returning »o the weighing out station with his owner's colors unbesmirched. He had ridden wisely and had kept him in front of the van for the entire route. After piloting his first winner Wat rous showed rapid advancement jn his chosen vocation, and it was not long before his services were in great demand by the many horsemen at the Mexican track. Dashing Rider, In Watrous, the racing fans are going to see a dashing rider. He is a corking post boy who has the know ledge of getting a horse away from the gate In a manner which gets the runner into his full stride at once. While at Maple Heights recently, Tryon, who holds the coveted con tract on Watrous, refused a mighty attractive sum for the document, which, had it been transferred, would have made the services of the rider Freddie Watrous. become' tne property of a nationally known New York turfman. Watrous, who has the benefit of the five-pound apprentice allowance. Is naturally a light boy and can do 100 pounds without reducing. He is a tower of strength on a tiring horse that needs assistance in the final rush to the wire and he should find the Omaha racing a fertile field In which to show his wonderful skill as a topnotch Jockey.

American Lars Excell Foreign Indianapolis, Ind., May 31.— Tommy Milton's spectacular victory in yesterday’s 500 mi|e automobile race, the first time any driver has ever won the event the second time, was the subject of much comment among automobile experts today. They point but the fact that eight of 10 cars finishing in the money, In cluding the first seven in order, were of American make, as proof that the United States still maintains the su periority In mechanical designs gain ed during the war. That the tiny 122 cubic inch piston displacement, racers, proved them selves capable of all asked of them, also was the concensus of automobile men. That the tiny racers could stand the grind of the 500 mile derby and come through in such excellent condition, was a matter of astonish ment to automobile men. Drivers of the foreign made speed creations had no comment to make regarding the relatively poor showing of their cats Whether Indianapolis will stage an other race, was uncertain. Rumors have been current that the speedway officials alarmed at the anti-sport Memorial day bill, passed by the In diana legislature, but vetoed by Gov ernor McCray, have been seeking a site to which they might move the track. Cleveland is reported to have made bids for the next race.

Pair of Second Division Teams Bother Leaders Athletics and Dodgers Make Kad) Season Spurts Prom Right Hand Column. By Associated Press, New York, May 31.—Two major league clubs this spring have risen from second division depths to chal lenge the supremacy that the cham pion Nevf York clubs, the Yankee* and Giants, have enjoyed for the past two years.

Both teams went well against western clubs in the initial inter sectional clashes of the season, the Athl/tics winning 8 out of 13 and the Dodgers 8 out of 12, and both checked the winning streaks of the champion New York clubs. But the Brooklyn ites, since May 8 have captured 13 out of 18 games and climbed to third place, while the Athletics have won but 11 out of 20, two defeats yester day at the hands of the Red Sox doming as unexpected setbacks. | The IJodgerB capped the climax or their spurt by taking three out of I four from the Giants at the Polo grounds this week, an achievement even more noteworthy than the recent triumphs of the Athletics in two out of three games with the Yankees at Philadelphia.
