New Scogna, Hicks Mines
Maintain Even Ratinq

It will take another week or
two to decide which is the better
team of the two new entries
in the Departmental Baseball
League.
The new clubs. Scogna Tailors
and Hicks Chevrolet. expected to
get things settled right away
when they played each other on
the EllipSe yesterday in their first

however, was work to a TT tie.
Scogna came from behind and
took a one-run lead in the eighth
inning, but Hicks got back to
deadlock the game with a run in
the last of the ninth.
Another new team. Bonat'S
Cafe, made an auspicious debut
in the Industrial League by trim
ming Williams Chevrolet, 22-1,
yesterday. Bonat's also got %
hits, with Bob Hampton the lead
er with two triples and three
singles to drive in seven runs.

WaIcot Now TaIkinq
Of Winning by Kayo
By the As,oeintad Pres,

CHICAGO, May 13. Now
comes Jersey Joe Walcott with
heavy talk about punching the
daylights out of Rocky Mar
ciano.
Says Jersey Joe: II will do my
best to win by knockout, from
the first round on"
He didn't bat an eye when he
said it. He merely shrugged
when it was pointed out that the
statement seemed a contradic-
ton of his long training routine.
Virtually every minute of Wal
colts preparation for Fridays S
heavyweight title bout with
Champion Marciano at Chicago
Stadium has carried a strong
for-the-route conditioning key
note.
Furthermore, his manager, Fe-
lix Bocchicchio. has said:
"Marciano is too strong and
tough to knock out early. Jersey
must outlook him this time"
Fight experts note that slug
ging with the young and power
full Marciano is dangerous busi-
ness. They figure Jersey Joe
would have won the Philadelphia
match had he been more eau
tiouS.
Nonetheless, Walcott main
tanned to reporters last night
that he is capable of blasting
Rocky out from under the heavy
weight crown.

Maryland Will Pay
50 Gents Each for
Tagged Perch
By the Associoied Press

SOLOMONS, Md, May 49,
State fish researchers today
asked anglers to keep an eye
peeled for 1000 white perch
bearing red and yellow tags.
The dime-sized plastic discs
were attached to the fish as part
of a study to determine the
habits of perch during spawning
season.
The biological laboratory of
the Maryland Department of
Research and Education wants
to know the distances and speed
perch travel, their movements
during the summer months and
the origin of fish using the upper
reaches of the Patuxent River as
spawning grounds.
Fishermen catching the tagged
white perch will receive a So
cent reward for each pair of tags
they return to the Chesapeake
Biological Laboratory. They also
are asked to tell exactly where
the fish are caught, the date and
time, and the type of gear.
Besides the 50-cent reward
they will receive note telling
where their fish were tagged and
released.

By the Assoeioted Press

BALTIMORE, May 13.-No
outsider was considered improved
enough to warrant the $500 fee

Preakness May %, the Maryland
Jockey Club says.
The Pimlico owner reported it
had received no supplementary
entry for it's 100000 race. The
deadline was midnight last Sat-
urday.
Regular nominations at $50 a
head closed February 6 with 1856

Derby starters except Curragh
King, who finished 10th. were in
cluded.
The gross PreaknesS pot now
is $1O6,750. It will be swelled by
$500 for each entry and $500
for each starter.
The winner will get what's left
after $47,500 is subtracted for
the second. third and fourth
place horses. If 10 horses go to
the post that means the winner
will get $69,250.

The Northern Virginia high

veloped into a three-way race
with Mount Vernon now pushing
George Washington and WASH

first it appeared the Generals
and Presidents were going to
make it a two-team affair. but
they hadn't reckoned on lowly
rated Fairfax and Falls Church.
Each team plays every other
team four times in this, the
busiest high school league in the
area. Already Fairfax and Falls
Church have been practically
counted out. Nevertheless, they
can influence the title picture
greatly, as Fairfax demonstrated
with an 8-6 upset victory over
CIV last night. The loss dropped
CIV from first place to second
place tie with the upcoming
Mounts.
The Mounts, who weren't being
considered too seriously as late
as two weeks ago. can move into
the lead by beating WI in a
game at 8 o'clock at WI tonight.
Falls Church plays at Fairfax at
the same time, while CIV has
$3.50 pm. date at Episcopal in
a non-league game. In another
schoolboy game Eastern was to

Superstition May Add
To Field in Saturdays S
indianapolis Trials
BY the Associoted Press

INDIANAPOLIS, May 49,
The Indianapolis Motor Speed
way, largely stated by former
race drivers, figures that SUPER
stitution will help produce a big
field of contenderS Saturday in
the first of four days of quail
fications for the 500-mile race
May 80.
Car owners and drivers, al
ways looking for omenS and por-
tents, have noticed that the last
six Memorial Day winners made
their qualifying runs on the first
day of the trials.
Most of them won't admit that
they're Superstitious. They mere
ly avoid peanut hulls. the color
green and entering cars from the
right side.
Troy Ruttman, last years
winner at a record speed OF
1892 miles an hour, turned
pale after the race when he
found green Innings in his shoes
The 250-pound huffman won't
be able to compete this year be-
cause of an arm injury.
AgabaShian Re-entered.
Freddy Agabashian of Albany,
Calf, who won the pole posi-
ton last year by qualifying a
Cummins Diesel special at 138.01
miles an hour. will try again in a
new Kurtis Kraft with a four
cylinder Offenhauser engine. 1t
was entered by the Grancor Au-
tomotive Specialists of Chicago.
The Diesel, first of its kind
ever to start in the race, wasn't
entered this year. The Cummins
factory, which races only as part
of its experimental work, wants
to develop a smaller engine be-
fore it competes again.
The pole position, the inside
spot on the first of IL three-car
rows of starters, is won by the
fastest car on the first day of
qualifications.
Agabashian's qualifying time,
non-competitive record for the
track when he made it, was
broken twice later in last years
trial runs. Chet Miller of Glen
dale, Calf, set up the years
final mark of 139.034 miles an
hour in Novi V-8 Special.
Chet Miller Back.
Miller is back for his 18th at
tempt to win the "500." His
best finish was third in 1888.
Bill Vukovich, who led for $50
of the 200 laps last year and set
16 records, is a strong threat to
win the pole Saturday. The
Fresno, Calf, veteran has ex-
ceeded 1873 miles an hour this
spring in the same car and said
he had speed to spare.
Additional qualifications will
be Sunday and the following
Saturday and Sunday. Eighty
three cars were entered to shoot
for $1,000 in qualifying prizes
and the race purse of more than
100000.

Hollywood Meeting
May Be Cancelled
II Boycott Persists
BY the ASSoeioted Press

INGLEWOOD. Calf, May IS
The Hollywood race track re-
manned shut down today and
boycotting horsemen were con-
fronted with a threat of cancel
lation of the entire meeting un-
less their dispute with the track
is settled by Friday.
With racing postponed a Sec
ond straight day, the next de-
velopment probably will come to-
morrow when the California
horse racing board holds a Spe-
cial meeting to try to settle the
feud.
Gov. Warren said he was
watching the controversy. which
costs the State approximately
$4,000 in revenue every day
the track remains inactive.
40 Per Cent Demanded.
Owners and trainers, banded
together in the Horsemen'S Be-
nevolent and Protective AsSocia-
tion, are demanding more purse
money on a basis of 40 per cent
of the tracks portion Of the pari-
mutual handle.
The track says it will go for
no percentage system. 1t adds
that it's $2.6 million purse pro-
gram is the richest in racing
history and 100000 more than
originally approved by the rae
ing board.
The formal opening yesterday
OF the 50-day season was called
off when horSemen refused to
enter enough horses to fill out
the eight-race card. The same
situation prevailed yesterday
and the track shut down the
entry booth and said it would
remain shut until Friday morn
ing unless horsemen ask that 1t
be opened.
Track Adds Warning.
The track hoped to round up
enough entries on this day to
make up the card for Satur-
day.
However" the track warned.
IF on Friday morning the races
for Saturday fail to fill, Holly
wood Turf Club would be COM
PEELED to close down the entire
plant on Monday, including all
training facilities.
Hollywood Turf Club will. of
course. be happy to proceed with
the taking of entries and the
running of races at any time,
if the disagreement is settled"
Members of the HBPA scoffed
at the threat, saying other tracks
had made similar shutdown
warnings but had never gone
through with them.
