Candy Spots Chances
Could Depend on Shoe

BALTIMORE, MAY l7-Ever think
the day would come when horse PLAYERS.
trying to pick tough race, would wonder
what kind of ride Willie Shoemaker will
give his mount? It's a little harsh on the
Shoe, perhaps, but the way the racing bluffs
figure the 9th Preakness tomorrow it's all
but impossible to separate the Big Three.
Two weeks ago in the Kentucky Derby
the Big Three comprised Candy Spots Never
Bend and No Robbery. Now it's the first
pair, plus Chateaugay, which won the
Derby. Absent tomorrow with leg trouble
will be No Robbery but the Preakness field
has more quality, If possible, than the
Derby.
Every time neutral watches one of the
Big Three in a morning romp he is apt to
change his mind about the winner. Each
has staged at least one big work. First It
was Candy Spots. Then Chateaugay put on
his sensational move last Monday, when he
equalled the track record for mile. It was
Never Bends turn yesterday.
Mish Tenney, cowboy trainer Of the
still-favored Candy Spots, is beginning to
sound like broken record. After Cha
teaugay's fabulous work, Tenney drawled,
Il reckon I better ship out" He said the
same yesterday after watching Never Bend
60 five furlongs in 1895.
so CLASSY ARE THE TOP 3-year-olds
this spring that many turfmen-by nature
q cautious breed-are speculating on the
possibility Of a record for the mile and
-sixteenths. This is pretty reckless
talk because 1t would mean lowering
Nashua's l:543s, set In 1855. And that was
tremendous horse.
A SOLDERING note is sounded by q top
clocker, Frank Robinson. The track at
Pimlico, he says, really is two different
strips. The morning" track Is considerably
faster, Robinson thinks, than In the after
noon during the actual running OF races.
They put all the water (l25,0O0 gallons,
it's saidD on the track each evening"" Rob-
inson says, "and make II almost sloppy.
Next morning the track tightens and gets
much faster than 1t stays for the rest of
the day"
Even 50, It's hard to remember when
three horses looked so sharp prior TO a
single race.
ALTHOUGH THE DERBY WAS nearly
two weeks ago, there's still hot argument
raging as TO whether Shoemaker rode
Candy Spots badly that day or was too
smart for his own good. At first blush 1t
seemed as II Shoemaker had trouble
making up his mind whether to run inside

Earl Wilson, who twice
flunked the major league test,
has parlayed confidence and
control into an outstanding
rating among American League
pitchers.
Wilson faced only 20 batters
and permitted only two singles
yesterday as he hurled the
rampaging Red Sox to q 80
victory over Los Angeles.
Boston, which has won five
in q row and IL Of its last 1S,
edged into first place in the
American League by .015 points

The Red Sox eased wilson's
task by stalking him to q 80
lead against Dan Osinski in
the first inning. Lou Clinton
doubled in two runs and Dick
Stuart scored Clinton with q
single.
Max Alvis had q home run
leading off the last Of the ninth
to break q A tie at Cleveland
and drop the White Sox into
second place. The homer was
the first run scored off Reliever
Jim Brosnan in 725 innings

morning line at 8-5 odds on

presence Of Jockey Willie Shoe

Preakness, also will help lower
the odds on the California
challenger.
Disagreement on Odds
The program will list Cha

assigned to Never Bend and

prices are Sky Wonder. 12-1;
Lemon Twist. 1871; On My

Other expert oddsmakers dis
agree with the track line and
believe that each Of the three

Trainers Of the big three are
not talking about their strategy
and jockey instructions. Tenney
in particular refused to, criti-
else Shoemaker for his Derby
performance, despite the fact
that the official chart said that
Candy Spots was blocked.
1t is generally expected that
Never Bend will run the same
type Of race he did in the
Derby, grabbing the lead fairly
early to take advantage Of the
sharper turns here and trying
to turn back the late bids Of
Candy Spots. Chateaugay. and
possibly On My Honor.

The Tigers make their sea-
sons debut in D. C. Stadium
IN q twi-night doubleheader
tonight. and II It's anything
the Senators are looking for
its somebody else who is having
trouble.
The Tigers have lost four in
@ row and are just a game
ahead of the Senators, who
lost their fifth straight last
night In Baltimore.
The Senators managed to
score their nightly quota Of
one run, but for the fourth
time in their losing streak that
wasn't enough. The Orioles
won, 9-1, and swept the three
games, 6-1, 7-l, 9-1. The Sem
ators started their losing streak
Sunday in Boston when they
lost, Al. The Red Sox also
took an 8-5 victory Monday
night.
The Senators regulars" had
one hit last night, q single by
Jim King. Mickey Vernon
moved Ed Brinkman into the
leadoff spot and put Tommy
Brown In leftfield. The rookie
responded with q double off
Jim Gentile's glove, a single to
center, and in the eighth he
sent Jackie Brandt to deep CEN
ter for his long fly.
Brown IN Lineup
Brown probably will play at
seast one game tonight but he
gill have to switch sides at the
plate. The Tigers are using
their two strong lefthanders,
Hank Aguirre and Don Mossi.
Bennie Daniels and either
Claude Osteen or Art Quirk
will work for the Senators.
The Senators swept a recent
two-game series in Detroit,
beating Aguirre and Frank
Larry, and are hoping the Tigers
will revive them again.
The Orioles disposed of Don
Rudolph in four innings, plus
two batters in the fifth. run
ming their record against left
handlers to 81.
Rudolph is fast disproving
his claim that he can pitch
against teams that are rough
on southpaws. He lasted one
third Of an inning Monday
against Boston.

two hits in five innings and
Hall one in four.
Oddly enough, It was the
winning manager who stuck
longer with o pitcher in trou-
BILE in last nights game. The
1898 fans. apparently the only
ones in Baltimore who didn't
want to stay home and listen
to Gordon Cooper complete
his flight. were on Billy Hitch
cock in the second inning.
King opened the second with
q single and Estrada walked
Don Lock and Ken Retzer.
Hitchcock went out for q visit,
and the fans were hooting
when Estrada had q 20 count
on Chuck Cottier. But Chuck
popped out.
Estrada then had 80 on Ru-
dolph when Don hit q sacrifice
fly to right. scoring one run.
Brinkman took q called strike,
and Estrada was out Of the
inning with one run against
him.
Hitchcock's patience was re-
warded when Estrada retired
IL in a row. The Orioles scored
four In the fifth for q I'll lead,
and Hall finished up as Es-
trada's arm tightened.
If the Senators continue to
stick with Hinton at third,
then Vernon has more patience
than Hitchcock. Chuck made
another Of his high throws to
first for an error on the lead
off batter in the fifth, and
when Jerry Adair singled, Jim
Coates relieved Rudolph. It was
only 81 at the time.
The damaging blow In the
Orioles three-run fourth, all
with two out, was a double Just
inside the bag at third by Jackie
Brandt.
Coates Ineffective
Coates retired the first batter,
and then gave up four con-
Secutive singles up the middle
and hit a batter before Jim
Duckworth succeeded him.
The Senators, who in one
stretch earlier in the season
knocked out 10 consecutive
starting pitchers, have become
helpless at the plate. Their
team batting average has
dropped from .262 to under
.240 and their leading hitters
are Hinton and Don Leppert
at .280.
The Orioles, who entertain
the White Sox in q three-game
series starting tonight, have
moved to within q game Of the
league lead, but the suspicion
is that they haven't been beat
ing much for the last three
nights.

Foreign Affairs
One Of the many important
pieces of legislation in the field
of foreign affairs to come be-
fore the Congress this session
will be the recommendations of
the Herter Committee. Presi-
dent Kennedy appointed a Com
mittee Of experts headed by
former Secretary of State Chris
tian Herter to review the struc-
ture and organization of our
foreign service and related
agencies concerned with foreign
relations.
The Herter report makes
three key proposals which if
adopted will have far reaching
consequences for the personnel
and conduct of these agencies.
It calls for: (D a single foreign
affairs personnel system in the
Department; (2) the Establish :
ment of compatible family Of
services" between the foreign
service the USIA, and the
Agency for international De-
velopment; (3) the creation of
a Foreign Affairs College at
the graduate level for career
officers.
These recommendations will
soon be thoroughly studied by
the Foreign Affairs Committee.
1t is exceedingly important that
the Congress and the Executive
Branch cooperate on any and
all efforts to improve the quail
ty and efficiency Of the many
people in the various executive
who engage in the
conduct Of Amrican foreign
policy. Now more than ever we
must pull together, for the
"Cold War" is not by any
stretch Of the imagination near
