Cesarewitch

NEWMARKEI‘, Suffolk, Oct. 25 —(CP Cabin-Steady rain tonight cheered trainers preparing their oharses roi- Wednesday's 99th Tilli- ning of the Cesarewitch, while 1n London turf followers continued to wager huge sums on the outcome of the important handicap,

Ai. the Victoria Club in London, where the pace for the rest of the country ls set. the volume of bus- iness transacted in today's callover was the heaviest in many years, with the various candidates back- ed to the extent oi nearly £250,000- ($1,237,500).

A new Joint favorite, Sir Abe Bailey's Maranta, was brought- up under heavy support and, along with James V. Ranks Epigram, backed at 100 to 9. Maranta pre- viously was favorite, but for the past 10 days had been under a cloud on account of his defeat by William Woodward's Flares in the Lowther Stakes on Oct. 14 and by the defeat of his stablemate, the favorite Dan Bulger, in the Cam- bridgeshire.

But publicconfidence today was such that £26,000 was wagered on him in the callover. Eplgram at- tracted £22,000. Other bets placed, together with odds, follow:

Nightcap III, 13 t0 1, £24,000; Solar Bear, 13 to 1, £16,000; Fat, 100 to 6, £15,000; Faibes Vos Jeux, 20 to 1, £15,000; Punch, 100 to 6, £14,500; Buckleign, 18 to 6, £12,500; Miss Windsor, 25 to 1, £10,500; Near Relation, 100 to '7, £10,000; Harewood, 201.0 1, £9,000; Musco- vado, 33 to 1, £7,500; Dytchley, 35 to 1, £7,000; African Lily, 40 to 1, £6,000; and Idaho, 25 to 1, £6,000.

While sentiment was not un-

unimous, l large majority of the trainers in this "headquarters" of British racing, were delighted at. the continued rain. Most wanted softer going for the 2 1-4-m1le trial of speed and endurance. An outsider, H. Blundelrs Tapageur, was scratched during the day, re- ducing the field to 35. Henri Count, owner and trainer of the French horse Harewocd, arrived with his charge today-af- ter a rough crossing of the Eng- lish Channel. 1-Ie said the colt stood the journey fairly well. The horse, who will be ridden by_ the French jockey, R. Brethes, is stat- ed to be backed by his owner to the extent of £50,000.

trainer of Artist's Prince, the Cam- bridgeshire winner, confident of pulling of! the big autumn double. His Cesarewitch candidate is Cap- tain W. P. Ahearrrs Nightcap III. Bookmakers said that one punter stood to win £20,000 if Nlghtcap III completes the double for Dines and that there were many other similar wagers. Accordingly they are hoping for an outsider- to win. Of these, Pox Star, Idaho, and Grecko are considered to have the best chances.

Rough Hockey‘ Tactics Taboo In E n g I a n d

LONDON, Oct, 25_Engp_5h hoe, key rips along daintily niece days to a. chorus of whistles as referees heels to instii traditions of "c113- ket into the game.

In an effort to minimize rough they. the British Ice Hockey Assn. cation introduced a penalty gm; rule similar to that used in Na- “(lml lfiasue competition while Elli‘)! have also adopted stringent anti-riot" legislation,

Thought Too Severe

“Why they'll have us bowing to attacking wingers next," said hus- ky I-Iazen Mc-Andrew, Toronto boy. who plays defence for the Grey- hounds. l-le thinks the "clean-play" legislation too severe and says some thuzgs frowned on in England would be considered good strategy .11 Canada.

McAndrew recalled a, case when; he drew a three minute penalty for whacking the ice with his stick. He made the harmless gesture after an opponent had held his stick.

But the new penalty shot from a line 35 feet from the goal is wel- comed by the netminders for 1t re-

tors. Under the old free shot, the player could withhold his shot un- til he reached the goal crease.

"A goallies job is tough enough without that kind of stuff," sazd Charlie Teno, Earl's Court Rangers netman, last season with Sudburys champion Tigers. "If they let them skate in that close the goalie is either going to be knocked through the back of his net or seriously in- jured."

llarshly Dealt With

The new legislation to prevent battles royal deals harshly with of- fenders. If a disciplnary committee considers the offense serious the offending player is suspended for an indefinite period. In event of re- petition of the offense the suspen- sion may became international and the man's playing certificate can- celled. ' ,

Soccer rules are also being intro- duceci into the game. Replacing the penalty face off in front of the net which used to be given when a, goaiender failed to clear the puck, the attacking side will be al- lowed to shoot a “corner as in soccer at distance of 20 feet from the 809,1 in a. line with the poets.

In a room filled with newspaper- men, J. Robert Quinn, president of the Bees, telephoned Stengel at the latters home in Omaha, Tex., and ofiered him the job.

Btengel accepted. No terms were announced, but Quinn indicated

' the question of salary and length

of contract would be settled when Stengel came to Boston early next month.

Stengel was- idle last summer, although under contract with the Dodgers, from whom he was re- puted to have received more mon- ey for not managing the club than Burlelgh Grimes, the team's pilot, did for finishing sixth.

Quinn said he had been in

doubt of signing Stengel for the Bees until he reached him on the telephone. . "I tamed down Casey's request for the job the day after the World Series," he said, "explaining hat I had two others in mind- Donnie Bush of Minneapolis and Gabby Iiartnett of the Cubs.

But there wasn't any doubt. as soon as the telephone connection was made.

"Casey," asked Quinn, “do you want to come with us next year?"

“I'd be delighted to," came the reply.

“Okay, you've got the job."

"I'm delighted. Thank you. We'll fool a. lot of the boys."

Before calling Stengel, Quinn revealed that Hartnett and Bush had been the only two approach- ed. that neither Babe Ruth nor Rabbit Maranvllle had applied for the post.

William Wrigley, he said, in- formed him that Hartnett was not available for any managerial job, and that the Cubs’ catcher would have a. job in the Cubs’ organiz- ation whenever he gave up play- ing.

Quinn said he had gone over applications from Rogers Hornsby "and about 150 others," but had come to the conclusion "Casey Siengel is the only man left.”

"Don't sell Stengel short. He's likely to fool a lot of people, and if he wins next summer....

"I've wanted somebody who knows the National League, and while Tony Lazperi would make a pretty good manager 1n a couple of years, he doesnt know our league."
