Scoreboard

P: In the second race at Churchill Downs, Jockey Willie Hartack, aboard a maiden filly named Quail Egg, was thrown when Quail Egg reared in the starting gate, broke his left leg in the tumble. Winning on Quail Egg would have earned Willie some $200. Falling off cost him a ride on Kentucky Derby Favorite Tim Tarn, and a chance for upwards of $12,000 as his share of the purse.

P:The Penn Relays began a triumphant finale to the intercollegiate foot-racing career of Villanova's light-foot Irish senior Ron Delany. With Ron running in the sprint medley, the distance medley and the one-mile relay, Villanova set meet records in all three, became first team ever to win three relay titles three years in a row, first ever to win the mile four years in a row. The Delany himself set a four-year record for collecting relay hardware: ten first-place gold watches. P: After watching some older kids try out for the New York City Parks Department's yo-yo championship, Stephen Awerman, an eleven-year-old from Jamaica, L.I., decided that he could hold his own with the big boys. He spun his yo-yo through the required figures--spinner, walking-the-dog, breakaway, over-the-falls, around-the-world, three-leaf-clover, creeper, rock-the-baby--then unreeled 312 loop-the-loops to latch onto the title. P:Haled into a Miami traffic court, Leroy ("Satchel") Paige, patriarch of pitchers, whose age is a matter of opinion (his opinion, 49; his mother's, 54), drew a 20-day jail sentence and a chance to work out his time on the ball field. For every game Satch wins for the Miami Marlins, said Judge Charles Snowden, he will get a day's credit. He will get the same reward for every run he scores and for every time he strikes out his nemesis, Luke Easter of the Buffalo Bisons.
