Driver Accused
Of Using Battery
At Ocean Downs
BY the Associated Press

OCEAN DOWNS, Md, Aug. 26.
Joe McGraw, presiding steward
of Ocean Downs, said today the
Maryland Racing Commission is
considering the unusual case of
a harness horse driver charged
with using an electrical device"
Use of a battery by jockeys to
stimulate thoroughbreds is a
common violation in fiat racing,
but rare by harness drivers.
McGraw said that Louis Floyd
of BirdsneSt, Va, had been sus-
pended from driving since last
Thursday when the electrical
device" was found in the pad
dock.
The steward said the Racing
Commission had heard the case
here last night and it is up to it
to announce a decision. Mem
bers of the commission could not

OF IS FiIIies in Rich
Princess PAT Stakes
BY the Associated Press

CHICAGO, Aug. 26.-Unparal-
leled riches beckoned Is fillies to
the Princess Pat Stakes at WASH
ington Park today.
If all Is overnight starters go
to the post, the race will gross
$109, 400 with the winners share
$70,32O.
The 6-furlong Princess Pat is
the richest race ever held for q
year-old fillies, surprising Ar
lington Parks Lassie Stakes, the
previous top attraction that
crossed $105.737 this year.
FavOrite Won Lassie.
Winner of the Lassie event
and favored to repeat in the
Princess Pat-was Hasty House
Farms Queen Hopeful, a five
time winner who has earned
$87, ,103 in her eight starts.
Johnny Adams, who piloted
her to the Lassie triumph and
also to a first place in one Sec
ton of the Mademoiselle Stakes,
again will be in the saddle.
Several of the 2-year- -olds that
trailed Queen Hopeful in the
Lassie are in today's race.
Stoutest opposition is expected
from Wallace Gilroy's Greek
Lady, who ran a dead heat with
Queen Hopeful in the Mademoi-
selle; Clifford Mooer's Spy Magic,
who won the MademoiSelle's
other section, and Rex Els

Speeial Dispatch 10 The Star

CLEVELAND, Aug. 26.-Bob
Porterfield has his sights set on
the best Washington pitching
performance in eight years. while
Mickey Vernon hopes to make
himself unique among the Nat
hitters of all time.
Back on top in the league bat
ting race, Vernon comes up
against Dave Hoskins, a right
handler with a 5-3 record, in the
final game of the two-game Sc
ries against Cleveland today.
Chuck Stobbs, who has been
somewhat of a sensation of late,
carries a 9-6 record to the mound
for the Mats.
For the first time since Roger
Wolff pitched himself to a 20
10 record in 1945, the Mats may
come up with a 20-game winner.
The 8-4 victory over the Indians
here last night makes Porter
fields record read 1910 and the
team has % games remaining.
And for the first time in his
tory the Mats could have a two
time winner of the American
League batting crown. Vernon
is back at 1876 after getting two
hits in five trips last night. Por-
terfield helped Vernon by blank
ing Al Rosen in four tries, while
Vernon helped Porterf1eld with
his two runs batted in. Rosen
now has a 1923 mark.
Perfect Mark Against Tribe.
Porterfield has been particu-
larly rough on Cleveland. The
Indians have won only 10 of 19
games against the Mats, an un-
impressive showing for a team
once considered a threat for the
pennant. Porterfield has beaten
the Indians in all four of his
assignments against them-a six
hit shutout, a pair of nine-hit-
ters and last nights 10-hitter.
The Mats haven't had many
top pitchers since Emil Dutch)
Leonard knuckle-balled himself
to a 20-8 record in 1899. In
fact, you can count them on six
fingers-Walt Masterson, Early
Wynn, Sid Hudson. Ray Scar

Time Running Out on MusioI,

a real tear all season." Musial
complained. There haven't
been many days when I've got
ten three or more hits in 2 game.
In fact, I don't remember Inak-
ing four hits in a $. lgle ~rle all
year. Two hits per gan. seems
to be my limit. I don't know
why. either. I've felt fine all
year"
Musial feels the only way he
can overtake the eight batters
in front of him is by breaking
loose with a series of four or
five consecutive three-hit days.
Before the season began,
Musial predicted a figure of .34O
would lead the league in batting.
He still thinks that's what he
will have to hit to pace the field.
That means he will have to belt
the ball at approximately a
400 clip the rest of the way.
That's a tall ORDER" he said.
"It means I cannot afford more
than two or three hitless days
from now on. It hasn't been a
good year for me. I can't ex-
plain it,"
Musial, owner of a .346 life
time mark that began back in
194l, looked about thoughtfully.
Its quite a strain battling for
the championship year after
year." he said. Every year
you've got somebody else to
worry about. The more think
of it, the more I wonder how
Ty Cobb was able to win all
those batting titles. Twelve bat
ting championships for one
guy-nine in succession. Imagine
that!"
