Vejar WorkmanIike
In Beating Murphy

NEW YORK. April 26.-Chice

Forecasting Winner
In Maryland Hunt Cup
As Risky as Course
By Angelina ]. corobeIIi

Twelve to Is horses are expect
ed to run in the 57-year-old Mary
land Hunt Cup Saturday at, Glyn-
don, Md, and most of them are
expected to chase after William
Clothier's Pine Pep. with Mike
Smithwick in the saddle. But any
forecast of the outcome of the
gruelling 4-mile race is as hazard
Gus as its % timber fences.
Strictly an amateur affair
financially, the race has heavy
social overtone. No admission is
charged to the course. located on
Bill Martins picturesque Snow Hill
Farm. and there is no pari-mutuel
betting. There are friendly bets,
of course, but mostly for dinners,
hats or theater tickets.
Race Carries No Purse.
Although sometimes compared
with England's Grand Ma
tional Steeplechase, the Mary
land Hunt Cup carries no purse,
only leg on the challenge trophy.
The winning rider receives a sill
yer cup. but it is a victory every
steeplechase rider wants as badly
as a fiat rider wants to win the
Kentucky Derby in this country.
The Maryland fences are ap-
preached from all angles, up and
down hill as well as along sides of
hills. The course is 800 yards
shorter than the English course at
Aintree, which has SO jumps to %
for the Maryland Cup, but many
Americans consider Saturday S
hazards equal to those in the Eng
liSh race.
Fans Recall Incidents.
Fans, who bring picnic lunches
and find vantage points around
the course have seen some unusual
happenings in previous races. In
1896, for example, the pacemak-
ing Kingsbury caught a glimpse
of his barn and headed for it. His
rider got him back on the course
in time to win the race.
In another race. Sidney Wat
ters' great Princeton kicked the
top board out of fence while
leading. and the rest of the field
Immediately headed for that panel
to take advantage of the lowered
jump. The story goes that Prince
tons old Negro groom waved them
away from it with the cry that
this yere's Princeton's gap."

July he was down in Newark.
The Yanks shipped him to
Kansas City before opening day
last year. This spring he went
to Phoenix. still belonging to
Kansas City. He convinced Casey
Stengel he could make it. Two
days before the opener he Off
cially moved up to the Yankee
roster.
Specs first outing wasn't sue
cess, although he had five straight
scoreless innings before the Mats
knocked him out in the sixth in
ming last Friday.
What do you expect?" Stengel
said. "The guy hasn't pitched in
two years."
Well. he has now. He pitched
yesterday, coming up with job
that stabilizes the Yanks' shaky
pitching staff.
And he's the fellow they passed
up in the draft last fall for only
$4,000.

Shoulder Hurt i'm l948.
The Shea story is well known
to most baseball fans. How he
picked up too much weight during
a winter of banqueting after his
1947 success. How he injured his
shoulder in '48 and dropped back
to the minors the next year.
Shea ripped a neck muscle, fall
ing away from an underhand
pitch by Earl Caldwell at Boston
in '48. His arm ached when he
combed his hair. He just couldn't
cut loose with his full motion.
ST had to shotput the ball up
there" he said. But now cut
loose almost like AT. Not quite
as fast yet. But, maybe before

Shea credits his recovery to a
chiropractor in his home town.
HE was after me two years
ago." he said. "I took one treat
ment and had to go South. But
this winter I took four full treat
ments. He got me on a table
and gave me a real workout.

the three teams meet each other
again. George Washington and
Maryland play May 8, while
Georgetown meets CIV May 9 and
Maryland May Is. To warrant a
clear-cut claim to area honorS
one team must beat the other two.
Otherwise, regardless of overall
records, there will be room for
argument.
Coach Joe Judge of Georgetown
has been getting very satisfactory
pitching. Judge has been waiting
for his team to start hitting and
if the last two games are any
criterion, his waiting period is over.
The Hoyas pounded out 19 hits

struck out seven.

Simon doubled and Walls drove

ending double.
Maryland lost its third game
of the season, 80, to the University

six hits, but one of them was a
three-run home run to Bob Steph-
