MUDDY TRACK MAY AID EQUIPOISE IN PREAKNESS

Sloppy Turf Would Handicap Twenty Grand in $50,000 Race; * 17 Entered in Kentucky Derby

Nine Thoroughbreds Named to Start in Classic Event; Mate Shows Wail in Trial. BY NELSON H. PAYNE, Untied Press Staff Ccr.esrandent PIMLICO RACE TRACK, Baltimore, Md., May B.—Nino colts, the smallest field in years, were named today for the fortieth running of the historic $50,000 Preakness stakes, to be decided Saturday. The sun was shining this afternoon and drying out the track, heavy from recent rain. Much depends on the weather, and a fast or gcod track Saturday promises an epic race between Cornelius Vanderbilt Whitney’s Equipoise and the Greentree Stable's Twenty Grand, leading rivals for 3-year-old honors and the Kentucky Derby. A slow track would favor Equipoise. In fact, Twenty Grand might not start under such conditions. On a fast track the Greentree star would be the choice of many experts, especially in view of his dazzling workout the other day. Victory Worth $50,225 The race will start about 3:45 p. m., Indianapolis time. Grcss value of the stake, if nine start, will be $60,250. Os that rum the net value to the winner will be $50,225. Second horse gets $5,000, third horse $3,000 and fourth horse $2,000. It costs SI,OOO to start. For each scratch SI,OOO should be deducted from the gross value and net value to the winner. Twenty Grand will be supported by his stable mates, Anchors Aweigh and Surf Board. The forecast was fair and cooler tonight, increasing cloudiness Saturday and slightly warmer, followed by showers Saturday night. Others Work Out Following the brilliant trial of Twenty Grand and the excellent move by Equipoise on Wednesday over a fast track, Mate came out for a seven-furlong workout through the mud Thursday. Pie was not hurried, and breezed the distance in 1:30 just as an exercise gallop. Aegis worked a mile and a furlong in 2:05 and Clock Tower the same distance in 2:11. Trainer James Rowe, who handles Twenty Grand in the Greentree stable barn is enthusiastic about the colt, pointing out that in his work* on Wednesday he had almost the full Preakness weight up. Fred Hopkins, who trains Equipoise for C. V. Whitney, declares the son of Pennant was never better and Is certain to run his race Saturday on any kind of a track. No fillies will be among the starters in the Preakness.

Cub Pilot Undisturbed by Dissension Rumors Hornsby Has but Three Rules for His Players, He Says: Denies Having Trouble With Athletes and Is Satisfied With Showing. BY GEORGE KIRKSEY, United Pres* Stiff Correspondent CHICAGO, May B.—Rogers Hornsby, manager of the Chicago Cub; has only three rules for his players: 1. Get results. 2. No drinkmg. 3. In bed by midnight. Only the first two rules aie hard ana fast. Any player who want, to remain out after midnight must get permission from Hornsby or one of the ccaches, Ray Schalk or Charley O'Leary. Permission always is granted. .“I try to handle my players the way I’d like to be treated myself,” said Hornsby. "I try to be on the up and up With all of them.' If I think a player isn’t giving his best for the team. I tell him about it.

"I don’t try to take charge of all the players and make every one of them play the way I want him to. I can t think for them. They have to use their own judgment and ability. If a pitcher wants to pitch to a batter a certain way and gets results that way. why I let him have his way, even though I may think it’s wrong.” Rumors of dissension between Hornsby and his players do not irritate the Cubs’ manager. “I never have had any trouble with any players on any team I have ever been with,” said Hornsby. “It’s funny why I’ve always had players come to me and ask me to get them on my club if I am hard to get along with.” “Did you see this?” Hornsby was asked. He glanced at a newspaper headline, “Hornsby-Wilson feud smolders,” and didn't even bother to read the story which said Hack Wilson I might slap Hornsby down in public. “I don’t read the sports pages for ! anything but to find out what the i other teams and players are doing,” he said. Before the Cubs departed Thursday for their first eastern invasion of the season, Hornsby said he was satisfied wuth the showing made by his team thus far.
