have anything later, I’ll let you

SPORTS
ROUNDUP
(By Ted Meier)
NEW YORK, (/P)—Abbe’s First
enjoyed a horse laugh a: the At
lantic City race track on Tuesday.
The two-year-old strawberry
roan filly, after running second to
Her Highness in the first race, was
uncadlled and started toward the
stables. She’d take a lew steps,
.hen .ear bac': pulling the reins
frt .1 the hands of her groom.
El.: il.y r.ht just flopped over on
her side n full view of the crowd.
These s c lay without a move un
til the h.» s _• ambulance arrived.
The; ,i. she jumped up and
w. 1 ci! docilely along. The' last
■'e bov n the pressbox saw, the
groom was spraying water on her
i a ho-e—maybe that’s what
she wanted all along, but men just
don’t understand the ladies, it
seems.
Maybe folks think Je.-ey Joe
Walcott will be duck soup for
heavyweight champion Joe Louis
when they meet in their non-title
10-rounder at Madison .Square
Garden in November. We don’t
. . Y.v Jersey Joe can win. but
v . have a suspicion that he will
give a better account of himself
i most persons think.
