By DAVIS 9. WALSH. Churchill Downs, Louisville, Ky., May 17.—An Indian woman, Mrs. ItoHa Hoots, widow Of a. man who loved race horaes and willed her a racing stable along with oil wells and i huge estate in Oklahoma, tonight t elebrated the victory of Black Gold, her roll, which todny won the 50th running of the Kentucky derby from a field of 19 starters. What shades of past race horses, nomads of the old American plains may have danced through her mind as her strong and willing colt came like a hurricane down the stretch to barely nose out Chilhowee, another western entrant, is left to conjecture. That she was almost overcome by the joy of her triumph was attested by heraelf. A crowd of the centuries cheered ns the mighty colt, which was quoted at odds of 40 to 1 when winter books began collecting their followers, picked up his stride In the stretch and ran down his Held. Backers of Chilhowee wore sure their entrant was going to win as the speeding field swept around the last turn, but Black Gold, a wonderful stretch sprinter In liis every race, broke their hearts with his hurst of speed. His name was on the lips of the crowd aa Jockey J. D. Mooney let out his reins and as the • apace between him and the leader grew smaller and smaller the anthem swelled to a roar. He won in the style his cheers warranted, runnirtff hard, and just In front—a spectacular finish. Beau Butler Shows. R. R, Fradley’s Beau Butler heat off the field for the show money thus putting the west in one two three or der at the end. The east was out of It except fob what little glory may be extracted from the fact that, after Black Gold had led for the first quarter. Braca rtale of the Rancocas stable, came out in front and set a killing pace that the Oklahoma entrant apparently did not try to meet until the challenge was worth something. Bracadale un doubtedly had been sent to tha post by his owner, Harry Sinclair, and his trainer, Sam Hildrerth, to make a pace that Mad Play, his stable mate could follow, and then sweep on to win. Black Gold appeared to have plen ty in reserve when he stuck his nose under the wire, but his margin of \ ictory was sufficiently scant that he gave his hackers quite a thrill be fore the numbers went up. Louisville, Ky., May 17.—A rush for a golden event, beside which the historic gold rush of '49 was a mere hiking party', began hours before noon today, when pleasure-bent thousands wended their way to Churchill Downs, where Kentucky’s jubilee derby was to be decided this afternoon. Kstimates as to the number of rac ing enthusiasts who would witness the trying event generally centered around the 100,000 mark. Louisville and Kentucky furnished a portion of this vast throng, but fully half of the derby fans journeyed from almost every corner of the United States. For the last two day* all arteries <>f transportation have lad to Louis ville. Probably 400 private and spe Hal cars brought notables from all over the country, but principally from the east and from Chicago. Motor ists driving here for the derby have ■ logged every road with dust-laden caravans. By river came additional hundreds. Today evey street an avenue led to ' hurehlll Downs. Acres of automo biles were parked around the racing plot even as early as noon, and late arrivals were confronted with the ns ■•esaity of parking many blocks fmtn tlie track. At U) o clack all the unreserved ■cat* In the grandstand at the track were filled and holders of box seats • ere coming in. There are 1.500 boxes, With six seats each. It is esll uialed that the grandstand indoanre ■vdl accommodate 50.000 person* com fortably and that 75,000 person* could get in with crowding. The aland Is more than 1,000 feet long. The pari-mutuel machines for the derby were put In action at 10 o'clock, log machines registering bet* of from *100 to *2 wera available during the day. Tha first race will be called st 10:45 o’clock and the derby will be darted as near as possible to 4:45. Predictions that the race would be mn on a fast track came from most nil the trainers, although the sky was clouded just before noon. According to an expert handicapper, who has made a long atudy of racing charts, ihe time made today, should no rain full, probably will break Old Rose bud’* record, 2:09 2-5. He hold* that i here Is bound to he some fast pace in • he rarp, as all the jockeys wlil at tempt to get clear around the first or clubhouse turn. They even came by air, a number ' t airplanes from various army fields, ■id the TC-3 from Scott Field, 111., ■ irlvlng during the morning. The TC-3 with a crew of seven men ■ rived over Louisville at 1 p. m.

"Chief" is swatting for an average of .48$. His nearest rival is .lack l.elivelt of tile Tulsa Oilers, who is batting the ball at a .441 clip. There is a bit of interesting news attached to the ‘Thief.” A year or two ago when Robinson was placing with Sioux Olt.v, then of the Western, he “choked” his bat and the result was that he never clouted the ball for many hits. The ‘Thief” has al ways been a pretty fair hitter but nothing like he la this season. When the Buffaloes went south to train, Robinson was not in the squad. He joined the Herd a ahort time after the training camp was over, how ever, and In his own wav started swinging at the ball with a "choked" bat. Manager Art Griggs quickly In formed the “Chief" thr.t the best wftjr to get results with a bludgeon was to grip it close to the bottom. Robinson Immediately changed his style and today is leading the league. He has been at the top ever since the sason start ed.

Fred was rocking like a cradle in an orphan asylum In the last couple of rounds. The fight Is figured to be a win for Wills, but Madden doesn't read the papers.
