Page 6 HULL MAY HAVE GERRIE AGAINST BLUES Stoke turn down Franklin offer by CHARLES HARROLD HULL CITY, whose latest offer for Neil Franklin was turned down by Stoke City directors last night, are prepared to pay £14,000 for Sid Gerrie, a Scottish insideleft, and if the player is agreeable to the move he may be signed in time to play against Birmingham City tomorrow. 9 Gerrie lost his regular place in Spuhler out of Boro the Dundee side when the club signed four-goal international" Billy Steel from Derby County team to meet Villa at the beginning of the season. Terms have been agreed between Hull and Dundee for the transfer of Gerrie and it now only remains for the 23-year-old player to decide whether he wants to leave Scotland. Hull's new offc, to Stoke City for Franklin, reported to be in the region of £23,000, was turned down after a two-hour meeting of the Stoke directors last night. JOHNNY SPUHLER, the down with influenza and Aston Villa on Saturday.
iddlesbrough centre-forward, is will be unable to play against Andy Donaldson. who has not played for Middlesbrough since the season before last, will lead the attack. He was out of action all last season following a fractured ankle and has played in the reserves this season to recover his confidence. £25,000 bottom price At the same time Hull City directors also met to consider the Franklin situation. They stated that they had asked Stoke to reconsider their earlier offer of £20.000 and that Stoke had reaffirmed their decision of last week not to accept less than £25,000 for Franklin's transfer.
While Hull hope to have Ger i in their team for tomorrow Birmingham City announce that their team to visit them will be unchanged. This means that the successful forward line of Stewart, Powell. Trigg. Smith and Berry will be in action again for the third time this season. Albion hopes West Bromwich Albion have hopes of completing negotiations for the transfer of Dave Walsh before the weekend, and will not name their team to meet Fulham until today.
With an expected playerexchange del in the air it is perhaps significant that the selection of the team has been delayed. Wolves-Arsenal clash Wolves returned from Belgium last night after their mid-week game in Antwerp with a fully flt team. The eleven to meet Arsenal at Molineux will be named today. Though Wolves gained a brilliant 4-1 victory at Portsmouth last week. it does not follow that the same team will be selected for the visit of the League leaders.
Arsenal ton defer their choice. lan McPherson may. after all, fit enough for the game, but some doubt exists as to whether goalkeeper George Swindin will be able to turn out. WITHOUT POWELL For the second successive home match Villa will be without their skipper Ivor Powell. He played with a strapped-up leg at Burnley last week, and as the injury has not cleared up Larry Canning switches from the attack to his natural position at right-half Gibson takes over at insideright and Dixon returns to the side at outside-right, reforming the right flank combination which has shown good form in the past.
Middlesbrough, third from the top of the First Division, win have George Hardwick. the English international. playing his last game for the club, at left-back. The visit of Middlesbrough meant that in a month the top three teams of the Division have played at Villa Park. Having beaten Newcastle and held Arsenal in an unforgettable game.

To enable Villa's representative to reach a final decision, Houghton will be played at centre-forward in Newcastle's Central League team at St. James's Park. Villa representatives have watched Houghton in every game since he was put on offer. without being able to make up their minds. In all these games, with the exception of Newcastle's First Division match at Villa Park, he has played in the halfback line.
Newcastle fixed a MON fee for Houghton's they are prepared to negotiate. Houghton. a native of Preston, was signed from Ballymena. Northern Ireland. for whom he played while in the R.A.F..
for Oldham still after Hardwick Believing that their attempt to sign George Hardwick. the Middlesbrough and England left-back, as playermanager may be furthered by a personal approach to his club, the Oldham Athletic directors decided at a special meeting night to ask Middlesbrough to receive a deputation early next week. Hardwick, who plays against Aston Villa tomorrow, has accepted the Oldham post subject to terms being agreed between the clubs, but Middlesbrough recently rejected the offer made by Oldham for his services. A WORK ER He is a strong. forceful player.
who will never be forgotten on Tyneside for scoring the two goals against Sheffield Wednesday that clinched United's return to Division I. Houghton asked for a transfer for domestic reasons. He was married during the close season, and wishes to leave Tyneside. When Villa bought Colin Gibson from Newcastle. chairman Mr.
F. Normansell asked one question of those who were watching Gibson on his behalf: I. he a worker, a 90- minute player?" Gibson certainly filled the bill. Houghton, especially when Newcastle were battling for promotion. was a worker.
So he might be Villa's man if he shows the old spirit tomorrow. Tite wins with k.o. Jeff The iSprattonl. one of the leading welterweights in the Midlands. enhanced his prospects of contending for the national title by knocking out Alan Wilkins welterweight champion of Wales, in the second round at Northampton last night.
Tite began with the obvious intention of an early decision and pounded the Welshman's body with heavy blows. Wilkins fought back. but In the second round a left to the law sent him down for eight and almost immediately afterwards a well-timed right to the jaw put him out for the count. QUEEN'S HORSE BEATEN The Queen's young jumper, Manicou (right, Tony Grantham up), was going well at this hurdle, but later faded out to finish seventh at Fontwell Park yesterday.

Princess Elizabeth was there to watch Manicou, formerly owned by the late Lord Mildmay DENIS HURT, BUT PLAYS TODAY DENIS COMPTON was hurt during net practice at Melbourne yesterday, but will be able to play for M.C.C. against Victoria in the match beginning today. Compton was walking back after bowling to Brian Close, whose powerful drive hit him between the shoulder blades. He left the field for attention, but the injury, a bruised muscle, was not serious.

The horse who was backed down to 7-4 ran well but, after being well placed at the turn for home, suddenly dropped back and finished seventh. The Queen was not present, but Princess Elizabeth arrived in time to see Manicou run. TRAINING DOUBLE The race was won by Attentif, who made nearly all the running, by two lengths from Ten Spot, who had won at Worcester last week. Although P. Camlet did not have the satisfaction of winning the race with Manicou he saddled two winners in Another Delight and Rhetorius.
Another Delight. owned in partnership by Lord Lewes and his father. Lord Abergavenny. won Division I of the Middleton Novices' 'Chase. The gelding has never raced over hurdles and it was not until last Saturday at Cheltenham that he had his first race over fences.
Cazalet's other winner was the smart fencer. Rhetorius. who proved too good for Nickel Coin in the Whitelaw Challenge Cup. Ironically. the rider of Nickel Coin was J.
Kurowskt, who used to win on Rhetorius when Col. W. Bobinski owned him. Bistor's case referred to N.H. Committee The Fontwell Park Stewards held an inquiry yesterday into Editor's display of savagery at Fontwell Park races on Wednesday.

Birmingham Gazette, Friday, November 3, 1950 Ten nations will compete for our richest race race, to mark the occasion of the Festival of Britain, is to be run at Ascot next year. It will be the most valuable prize ever to be contested on an English racecourse.
Entries have been invited from England, Ireland, the U.S.A., South Africa, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, France, Belgium, and Italy. The prize will include a piece of plate presented by the King and Queen. and £5,000 given by the Jockey Club. Mementoes will be given to the trainer and rider of the winner. Coloured School Boy completes a 'hat trick' The race will be known as the "King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Festival of Britain Stakes," and is for three-yearolds and upwards over a mile and Et half.
COLOURED SCHOOL BOY completed a hat-trick of successes this season when winning the Newnham 'Chase at Wincanton yesterday. Odds of 100-30 on were laid by backers. It will be sun at Ascot on Saturday, July 21. and will be the most richly endowed event of the racing year in Great Britain. Entry fees up The result was never in doubt.
Coloured School Boy winning in effortless fashion by ten lengths from Skouras and Rideo. The ten-year-old has now won 17 races. The £20,000 added money will be increased by the entry fees of £5O for each subscriber, and £5O extra for each acceptor. Entries will close on. May 8 next year.
In 1952, Ascot will resume its normal programmes, which will include the two races temporarily suspended. FIVE FELL In the Northover 'Chase five of the six starters fell Night Fighter to struggle home alone. Hunting Gate was remounted and finished second. THREE STAR II IS BEST AT WINDSOR RACING has a typical back-end appearance at Windsor today, and large fields and the change in the going is certain to upset the form of some of the horses engaged. One.
however, who should not be so affected is Three Star II in the Riverside Nursery Handicap. He has won his last two races in good style and will once more he partnered by the champion, Gordon Richards. He should be the best bet of the day. One of the most open looking races on the card Is the Windleshani Welter Handicap. In which that consistent live-year-old, Itoh Gets Bus).
carries top weight of lOst. It will be Bob's" 12th race this year. six of which he has won. He keep his form remarkably well. as he showed when dead-heating for second pace only a neck behind Star Signal at Hurst Park.
That race was over seven furlongs, which is slightly beyond Bob Gets Busy's best BIG ADVANTAGE Cratgy Llyn. in direct contrast to Bob Gets Busy, has yet to win this season. He was not disgraced when fourth to at Lingleld Park, however, and now has a big advantage in the weights. White Ant and Assessor are closely handicapped on their second and third respectively behind Atomic Peril at Wolverhampton last month. Both are sure to be fighting factors again at the finish, but Cralgy Llyn is selected to gain his first success of the season.
