Derby Crowd follows Conn and pennant races in Louisville
About 100000 visitors in Louisville share opinions on Conn versus Louis and the Louis Conn fight, with strong betting on Conn at 3 to 1. Fans favor the Red Sox in the pennant race, doubt the Yankees, and back Dodgers in the NL. College football coaching chatter centers on Trippi and a host of backs for 1946.
