BALTIMORE, Oct. 27.-This

mouths of jockeys, no get-a-
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..
Nope, the winner of the Pim-
1ico Special tomorrow was 60
ing to come right from the
feed box of either Coaltown or
Capot, the horses involved. I
was gonna sift their feed per-
sonally. if necessary, and from
my examination determine the
winner.
Well, I have the winner, but
not from the feed box. You
won't believe it, of course, but
here's what happened:
I called Dave Woods, Pim-
lico's publicity director, and
told him I wanted to peek at
both horses. Sure, come on
over" said genial Dave and
upon arrival he pointed out the
window of his Office and in
structed, "Cross the track, go
across the infield, cross the
track again, then go to that
stable over there and ask for
Jake. He's Calumet Stables
foreman"
The track was called slow,
but the ooze on my shoes isn't
tar. It's mud, lots of it. ANY,
way, I reached the stable
which had grown from a can
of baking powder and asked
for Jake. He wasn't around.
Could I take a look at Coal
town? Sure, there he is half
way down the stable there
where that mans sitting.
There was Coaltown, all
right, surrounded by a screen
about the size of three tele-
phone booths jutting out from
his stall. There was a lock on
the screen door, and a lovable
old character, wanting nothing
better from life than to be
chaperone of superior horse
flesh, was sitting by the screen.
"We have to have the screen
to keep people away from him
a bit," he explained. TOO
many people try to attract his
attention by clucking at him.
1t makes him nervous and ir-
ritable." ;"

Mounts Fast Center
Seen Menace toC. j.
Kicker Saturday

Joe Mauiri, star Catholic Uni
versity punter. will have to show
fancy footwork to get all his kicks
off against Mount st. Mary's if
reports about certain Noun
taineer center are correct. The
Cardinals will be host to the
Mounties at Brookland in a
Mason-Dixon Conference football
game scheduled at 2:30 pm. Sat-
urday.
Mauiri, one of the best hooters
in the conference, had one punt
blocked early in last weeks Johns
Hopkins game and only tumble
prevented the Blue Jays from
cashing in on a touchdown. Sat-
urday he'll be kicking in the face
maybe teeth of Bob Allen of
Hanover, Pa, Mount st. Mary's
center who has shown marked
aptitude for blocking punts.
Big and rough, the Pennsyl-
vanian has knocked down three
punts this season and missed
blocking a couple of others by a
split second. He also is keen on
anticipating enemy strategy and
is rated by Coach Johnny Law as
one of the finest line-backers in
the Mason Dixon circuit.
Allen and Ends Pat Cosenza and
Co-capt. Ed Quarry were stand
outs last week as the Mount took
a 800 drubbing from Western
Maryland. Their work helped
keep the crippled Mountaineer
eleven in the game until the final
period when the roof fell in and
Western Maryland scored three
touchdowns.
Coach Jan Jankowski hopes the
Cards will not only get off its
kicks against the Mount, but that
Mauiri's putting will put the visi-
tors in a hole. The return of Lou
Mccarthy at guard and the good
news that Willie Poms will be
able to play has Cardinal sup
porters dreaming of an upset.
Poms has been one of the Cards
outstanding linemen. but Nc
Carthy has been handicapped by
injuries. If they get in the game
together, Jankowski is confident
Mauiri will have plenty of time
to punt and Mount st. Mary's
backs will have trouble finding
holes to run through.

Fortunate Lost
For Rums Game

Georgetown has lost Bob
Fortunate for the Fordham
game Saturday. but will have
Paul Wintermeyer and Bill
Resch for part time duty and
Tom Burde for the starting
lineup, it was learned today.
At one time this week, Coach
Bob Margarita feared all four
would miss the Rams game
which will be played in the
Polo Grounds in New York.
Lou Becker, who took over
when Fortunate was injured in
the Boston College game, will
fill in for him again. Winter
meyer will be available for
limited play at left guard and
Resch, who caught the winning
pass at Wake Forest, will sub at
end. Burde, defensive center,
recovered quickly from a severe
charley horse. ,

CHICAGO, Oct. 27.-Bill Veeck.
president of the Cleveland In
dians baseball club. says he will
marry a former Pittsburgh and
New York model as soon as his
divorce becomes final.
Veeck. SO, and the father of
three children, said last night
that ANY talk of marrying now
is certainly premature" and then
added:
I'm not denying the intention,
although it's a little early to talk
of it. If the girl is willing, I'll only
be too happy to marry her"
The girl is Mary Frances Ack-
erman, q. former dramatic school
student at the Carnegie Institute
of Technology in Pittsburgh.
Veeck met her in Cleveland where
she was handling publicity for the
Ice-Capades last year.

Coa|town, Capot Seek
Horse Of Year Title
In Pim|ico Special
BY the Assoeioted Press

BALTIMORE, Oct. 27.-You
pay your money and take your
choice, but it won't make much
difference financially either way
in tomorrow's Pimlico Special.
The odds on both Coaltown and
Capot are going to be small.
They'll start off officially at
3 to (you put up IS to get back
So on Coaltown and even money
on Capot. That will be the morn
ing line according to Sam Keller,
Pimlico's pricemaker.
After that, the winning payoff
will be determined by the bettors
and they aren't expected to
change it much. There's strong
sentiment for both colts on the
eve of the 18th renewal of the
Special.
While the odds may be small,
there is a big stake in the race
even bigger than the purse of
$4,000 to the winner. It's the
Horse of the Year" title.
Calumet voluntarily put the title
on the line by agreeing to run
Coaltown alone and keep Ponder
out of the Special. Both were
eligible, but Greentree Trainer
John Gaver said he wouldn't start
Capot against the Calumet pair.
CoaItown Risking Title.
Coaltown had "horse Of the
year" honors sewed up, but if
Capot beats him tomorrow it's not
going to be so certain. Particularly
since Capot just whipped Coaltown
October in the Sysonby Mile.
II he does it twice in a row.
Capot probably will knock off two
1949 titles at one swoop. So far
he's been vieing with Ponder for
designation as the best 3-year-old
and undoubtedly will take that
honor also by beating the 4-year-
old Coaltown.
Calumet Trainer Jimmy Jones
refused to make any excuses for
his speed demon after the Sysonby.
He's got Coaltown razor sharp for
tomorrow's return match and as
usual will let the colt speak for
himself.
Ten days after beating Coal
town, Capot finished third to a
couple of lesser lights. Royal Gov
ernor and Three Rings, at ia
maica.
However, hackers of the Green
tree colt explain this setback in
the old turf saying. "horses tor
tracks" Capot is supposed to run
poorly at Jamaica, while he has
shown distinct liking for Pimlico.
Caoot Likes Pimlico.
He set track records two Of the
three times he has raced at Pim-
lico. The last time was in the
Preakness when he set a mark of
1856 for a mile and three-six-
teenths.
Experts look for that mark to
be lowered in the Specials same
distance, since both Capot and
Coaltown are noted as early speed
thoroughbreds. Coaltown holds
the world record for a mile and
has equaled two other world dis
tance marks.

the line standout. The line par

New York on Saturday. Hoya
Publicist Bill Rach reports from
Fordham headquarters that the
crowd will be between 10000 and
40, 900, the biggest in years to see
a college game in New York that
did not involve an Army team.
While last Saturdays game
against Boston College was chal-
lenge to the New England boys on
the Hoya squad, the Fordham
game will be the closest to a
Homecoming" for the numerous
New York and New Jersey area
Hoyas, including Billy Conn and
Dick Haesler, standouts last week
and Billy Rose, the Junior from
Newark who may have to go all
the way at guard.
Georgetown's Tom Hardiman
today won recognition as the top
player in the Nation on pass in
Perceptions, according to figures
released by the Moab. Hardi-
man has eight interceptions to
his credit and has returned them
100 yards. The Hoyas are 18th
in the Nation on pass defense,
having allowed their opponents an
average of only one completion
in every three tries.
A Baltimore g. Ohio special
train will leave Union Station at
8 o'clock Saturday morning.
Hoya followers who take the train
will be transported from Jersey
City to the Polo Grounds by bus,
and a bus will take them back
to the station following the game.
Information on the special may be
obtained at the alumni Office at
Georgetown, Michigan 1000.
The Georgetown team will leave
tomorrow morning at 9 o'clock and
will work out at the Polo Grounds
upon its arrival in New York.
Headquarters will be the Con-

Maryland this week has been

VETERANS TO RECEIVE
INSURANCE

Payment of a $4,000, 100000
special National Service Life
Insurance dividend on approx
mately 100000 policies has
been announced by the Veter-
ans Administration. About 49,
100000 veterans who took out
the insurance during World
War Two will be eligible to re-
ceive the dividend.
The VA stated that it hoped
distribution Of the checks could
be started by January, 1850,
and be substantially completed
during the first half of 1850.
Amounts individual veterans
will receive are not yet known,
as individual calculations have
not been completed.
Generally, every veteran who
took out the NSLI and kept it
in force for three months or
more will be eligible for the
dividend. In cases where poll
cyholders have died, the bene-
ficiary of the policy, if the
policy was in force, or to those
shown to be entitled in case
the insurance lapsed, will re-
ceive the payment.
The VA strongly emphasized
that veterans should not write
