.HAGERSTOWN IS
/. RAGING SCENE

HAGERSTOWN, Md. May II.
Everything is hustle and hustle
here today, as the opening of the
Hagerstown Fair Associations
five-day spring meeting is set for
tomorrow.
Race Secretary Edward j. Bren-
ncn, President Edward Bester and
General Manager William D. Will
son of the host organization
gathered the horsemen and riders
together this morning and in
formed them what is expected of
them this week.
It is the intention of the men
behind this meeting to windup
. MaryIand's spring season in a
blaze of glory and they will ac-
cOmpIish their task If the
weather man deals kindly with
them.
Horses are arriving hourly by
motor van and trai-c from the
Marlboro, 'Timonium, Pimlico,
Bowie, Laurel and Havre De
Grace tracks and by ,nightfall
every one of the available 300
stalls will have an occupant.
AS this meeting is the last of
the spring season, keen racing
should result. This will be due
to the fact that horSemen must
crack down at every opportunity
for they may not get more tnan
one chance to race before the cur
tain is lowered.
Seven races will be run daily
with fields being limited to
eight starters, By limiting his
fields Race Secretary Brennan
is confident of furnishing bet
ter racing, as well as inSuring
every starter a safer journey
around this picturesque half
mile racing plant.
Hotels and rooming houses re-
port a big influx Of visitors. The
majority of the fans who have
come into this State for the open
ing of the season on March 81 at
Bowie are drifting into town in
an effort to get shipping money
to one of the out-of-town tracks.
This means that the iron
men," which will be presided over
by Morty Mahoney are due for a
big play, in fact. many wagers
are being made that the handle
will exceed a half-million this
week,

CARDS STRING
FEATURE Of
EARLY RACE

NEW YORK, May 1.-THE st.
Louis Cardinals, boasting a win
ming streak of eight games, con-
tinue to be the sensation of the
Major League baseball races.
Although st. Louis has been
outbatted by the Cubs and
Giants due to poor stickwork on
the part of Frisch and Douthit,
the classy pitching staff of the
champions seems destined to lead
them to another National League
remnant. The comeback Of
Sunny jim Bottomley, who is
hitting .371, also has helped the
club tremendously. And with
the slugging Chick Hafey due
back in the lineup soon, the Red
Birds will be even more formid-
able.
The Cards, who. played only
three games last week, enjoyed
a lead of a game and a half
over New York this morning.
The Giants, getting first-claSs
pitching from FitZSimmOns,
Mitchell Walker, Hubbell and
Be--,y, shared hOnOrS with st.
Louis during the past week.
The McGrawmen won four of
their five starts and repulsed
the drive of the Cubs for Sec
'Ond place.
The Boston Braves won three
out of four during the week and
climbed notch to third place.
The Cubs, although capturing
three out of five, dropped to
fourth.
Lose Four Straight
The second division clubs had
q poor week. Pittsburgh drop
ped three out of four, the Phils
four out of six, Brooklyn four
out of seven and the Reds lost
four straight.
. Boston'S three straight wins
over Cleveland featured Ine week

unexpected setback at the hands
Of the tail-end Sox cost the
Indians the league lead and a
golden opportunity to gain

Boston and Detroit won four
out of six, while New York and
Philadelphia captured three
out of four.
Washington lost three out of
five and tumbled from third to
fifth place. Cleveland dropped
five out of six and Chicago lost

IS MAY START
IN DERBY

LOUISVILLE, KY, May IL.
Unless Mate or Twenty Grand,
both Fasteners, place first in the
Kentucky Derby Saturday, there
will be one of the most memor-
able upsets in turf history, &C
cording to a concensus of opin-
ion about Louisville today.
RailbirdS we're almost unani-
nous in, the belief that the fifty
seventh running of the classic
will be between Mate and Twenty
Grand, which respectively placed
first and second in the Freak
ness last Saturday.
1t appeared likely today that
the field will consist of no more
than 13, the smallest in a dozen
years. There probably will be
six easterners and seven west
ernerS.
Besides the PreakneSS win
nerS, the eastern candidates
will include, according to spec
uIatiOn, Surf Board and
Anchors Aweigh, both owned
by John Hay Whitney; C. v.
Whitney'S EquipOiSe and Ben
Blocks MOrstOne. John Hay
Whitney also is the owner of
Twenty Grand. Mate is owned
by A. C. BOstwick.
The Westerners will probably
be Boys Howdy, of the H. C.
Hatch stables; Joseph Letters
Prince d'Amour; G. Watkins
InSco; Clock Tower, owned by NJ.
L. Schwartz; Richard Morris
Spanish Play; Theodore Mueller's
Pittsburgher, and Sweep AL,
owned by Charles Fisher.
Although Twenty Grand was
noSed out of the Preakness by
Mate, he appears likely to be the
"public'S choice" The reason is
that Twenty Grand was badly
bumped and knocked off his
stride during the race and at one
time was blocked by his stable
mate, Surf Board.
At present, the Vests chances
to win honor in the Derby appear
to be very slim. One week at
this time of year can make a
world of difference, however, in
the opinion of track veterans.
Insco and Pittsburgher are men,
toned as among the most hope.
