Acorn Stakes
Draws Quill,
II Top Fi|Iies
By the Associated Press

Although the Preakness at
Pimlico holds the spotlight, a
total OF 100000 in added money
for feature races will lure good
fields at six other major thor
oughbred tracks today.
The $50. 000-added Los An
geles Handicap at Hollywood
Park will be run without the
famed stretch-running Silky
Sullivan.
Silky. apparently back in
shape after a series of poor
races. originally was entered,
but Owner Tom Ross said yes
terday the horse would not
start. Ross didn't elaborate.
Cornell Is Retired
Ross Thursday replaced
Trainer Reggie Cornell with
Wayne Stuki after a dispute
over racing Silky in the Los
Angeles. Cornell had objected
to the thoroughbred racing in
the Los Angeles on the grounds
the event was too tough for a
horse that had been away SO
long. Yesterday Ross hired
back Cornell to complicate the
situation.
Nasrullah also has been with
drawn, because Of illness, but
nine other horses have been
entered, including Hillsdale,
Arnerigo. Whodunit, Little
Moon, Royal Glove and AL
hambra.
The $50.000-added Acorn
Stakes heads the program at
Belmont Park. Each Of the ex-
pected IL three-year-old fillies
will carry 121 pounds. Quill is
the favorite, although Hidden
Talent, High Bid and Rich Ira
dition will have considerable
backing.
Idun Is Choice
The SIS, 000-added Colonial
Handicap at Garden State, a
6-furlong race, finds Idun car
rying top weight Of 124 pounds.
Tinkalero will carry l22 and
Dandy Bitten 100.

furlong event for 2-year-old
fillies, includes Rose of Serro
and Heroic Nun. Rose Of Serro
set the track record of :463s
for 4 furlongs, and Heroic Nun
set the Lincoln Downs mark of
:472s for the same distance.
At Churchill Downs, Hills

Nosed out in the Kentucky
Derby by Willie Shoemaker's
masterful ride on Tony Lee
Brookmeade Stables light
footed Sword Dancer win try
to prove 1t was all a mistake
in today's SD and richest
Preakness at Pimlico.
post time is 5:45 pm,
Washington time, and the
race will be televised and
broadcast on a Nationwide
hookup by the Columbia
Broadcasting System. It will
be shown on Channel Q Tv,
and heard over WTOP in
Washington.)
Expected to be no better
than 8-to-5 at post time, Sword
Dancer will have Shoemaker
on his back this time instead
Of Bill Boland. If the 27-year-
old Texan can urge his mount
across the finish line in front
he will be the first jockey ever
to win the Derby and Preakness
in the same year on different
horses. Sword Dancer was
second in the Derby.
Shorter Than Derby
Eleven horses, including seven
other survivors Of the Battle of
Louisville. are entered in the
mile and three : sixteenths
Preakness. which is a sixteenth
shorter than the Derby.
A clear. cool day was forecast,
with temperatures in the mid
die COS. Pimlico expected a
turnout of at least $4,000. The
historic old plant, undergoing
a gradual process Of moderni-
cation, was festooned with
bunting and wrapped in an air
of gaiety. Some 5000 to 10000
were expected to see the race
from the ini1eld, where accom-
modations were especially ar
ranged for them.
The field includes Christopher
j. Chenery's First Landing
last years 2-year-old champion
and a consistent in-the-money
flnisher who was third in the
Derby. First landings jockey
will be Eddie Arcaro, whose six
victories in IA tries-a record
gives him a virtual monopoly
on this race.
First Meeting Here
1t will be the first time Shoe
maker and Arcaro have met in
the Preakness. Shoemaker was
eighth last year on the highly
publicized. but overrated, Silky
Sullivan. In his only other
Preakness appearance in 1854,
The Shoe lost a neck decision
on Correlation to Johnny
Adams on Hasty Road. Arcaro's
last three winners on Bold
Ruler (1957). Nashua ('55l, and
Bold esd were scored in odd
years, and some of his fans
consider 1859 q good omen.
Arcaro's other winners were
Hill Prince C50), Citation ('48)
and Whirlaway CAD.
Other unsuccessful Derby
contenders trying for a piece
of the richest racing pie ever
sliced in Maryland. were Mrs.
Halina Braunstein's Royal Or

Lakers Hoping

Frank Ramsey

ST. PAUL. Mimi, April Z
(AP).-The Minneapolis Lakers
are ready to gamble on a bony
baseball pitcher tonight to chill
the hottest pinchhitter in pro
basketball. Boston's Frank
Ramsey.
The teams resume the Ma
tional Basketball Associations
best four Of seven final playoffs
in the st. Paul Auditorium with
the Celtics leading, 30.
Coach Johnny Kundla Of the
Lakers said he plans to give g.
foot-6 rookie Steve Hamilton, a
longterm bench rider through
most Of the season, a crack al
stopping Ramsey.
Hamilton, who played his col
lege basketball at Morehead,
KY. is a southpaw pitcher in
the Cleveland chain. He had a
l17-14 record with Burlington
N. c., in the Glass B Carolina
League last year.
Desperation Move
Despite his eagernesS anc
long range potential, Hamilton'I
elevation to help guard Ramsey
has the look Of a desperation
move by the Lakers.
None Of the Laker regulars
however, has had much lucE
with the game-breaking Celtic
reserve who has hit IA Of 81
shots and 40 points in SO min.
utes Of play against the Lakers
Unless they win this one the
Lakers can kiss the series good
bye. Beaten twice in Boston
they can't afford to lose q home
game and still retain any hope
of winning the title.
The Lakers. losers in 20
straight games with the Gel
tics. will need not only a tight
defensive job on Ramsey, but
also a return to form Of Elgin
Baylor, the rookie ace.
Auerbach Respectful
Baylor hit q dismal 2-for-17
against the Celtics Sunday and
finished with Is points. While
he collected "a in the opening
game, he even then lacked
some of the sparkle he flashed
in the Western playoffs against
St. Louis.
Red Auerbach, Boston coach
declined to do any premature
lchortling. This Laker team il
q good one and they've got q
Igood attitude" he said. They'll
be tough here in the Twin

The series moves to the Min
