AMERICAN CHAIN TEAM HERE SUNDAY

When the local Kaeeys take the field next Sunday at the Fairgrounds they will lineup against the Ameri- can Chain Team, of Bridgeport, one of the fastest semi-pro teams in the state bar none. and the fans will~have an opportunity to see 9 fast working aggregation of ball tcssers in action. The American Chain for a number of years has put in the field a team composed largely of ex-leaguers or youngsters who need more seasoning before breaking into the professional ranks. This team is an all-season team and constant practice has given them polish hard to find outside the profess.o .onal circuits.
 The personnel of the American Chain team Is as follows:
 Johnson, left field, former outfield- CT for Hartford in Eastern League and last year with the Three Rivers team, of Massachusetts. Sherwood at second base needs very little intro- duction to the baseball fans of New England. a steady reliable player at all times. Wargo is one of the hardest hitting catchers in semi-pro ball in the state and possesses fine throw ing arm. Ivers at first base played In Canadian League until the World War. when the Canuck League was broken up. He has played semi-pro ball since with the American Chain team after doing his bit in the Ar my during the war. Egan, right field, is an old Springfield catcher. does not like catching, so is playing the outfield and is reliable hitter. Bow den at third, was in Florida State League last season, but having secur- ed a good position in Bridgeport Ore fers the semi pro game this season. Bowden played here last Sunday with the West Ends. Douglas, at short stop, is a very promising younster and the only member of the team who has not seen service in one or more leagues Nelson is a young semi pro pitcher who had a tryout in Ney Haven, but was lacking experience, through big bhiAgs can be expected from Him when he has become more seasoned. Last. but not by any means least, Is "old reliable" Pete Wilson, who will be the mainstay in the pitch CTS box for the rest of the season. Pete is well known to baseball fans in the New England states and is still just as puzzling as eyer to the hitters.
 The Chain team has always had the reputation of having a good, fast ball team, but this year. with Wilson to help out they are better than in any previous year.
 Charlie Broad is another well known star having a rep, as a timely hitter and plays a fine game in center field
 The Kacey management will put tht same team in the field as last Sun day.

HISTORIC $5o,ooo CLASSIC
 DRAWS MANY FAST PONIES

Baltimore, Md, May 10-As the his toric Preakness draws near interest in this big annual race of the Mary land jockey club at Pimlico increases, and just now all the turf experts are busy figuring income of the $50,000 classic.
 From various sources the list of the probable starters has been cut down, and one by one, likely candi- dates have fallen by the wayside., The coughing epidemic which has been go- ing through the stables has incapaci- tated many, and the acid test of ac- utla racing has convinced owners of others that their entries have no chance
 Among the last to drop out was the Harry Payne Whitney entry. He had expected to send Prudish for the Oaks and Bunting for the Preakness. Yesterday, however, a telegram was received saying that both were cough ing and neither would come down. Word also was received from Mrs. Louise Viau that her candidate, Firm Friend, had been kicked in his race Monday and would not be able to come to Baltimore.
 Of the horses expected from New York, June Grass. Gallantman, Pirate Gold and St. Henry arrived today. He phaistoS was already on the ground Miss Joy Keyspence's fast western lilly, was expected tonight Of the horses that have been rac- ing in Maryland, the probable start- ters will be ChampIain, Missionary Gilman, Relay, Spanish Maisee, Mer- cutio, Hea, Bull Dog Hammond. Care taker and Pillory.
 | Oceanic will not start in the Freak i ness D. Riddle, wiring the Maryland
 Jockey club this afternoon that the horse was coughing and would not
 start. He probably would have gone
 to the post a favorite and his ab-
 sense will make the race very oper
 one.
