It has been raining here since + Monday and more rain was forecast for today. That also meant that Jobar may be declared but the rest of the fleld was expected to go. Those who didn't like the triple entry were going for Foxcatcher farms’ “Hampden and William Helis’ Rippey. Hampden, to be ridden by Bob Jessop, was four to one in the morning line while Rippey, winner of the Derby trial here Tuesday, was five to one. The closest to them was Spy Song at eight to one. A lot of people who believe in history repeating itself were going for Pellicle, Hal Price Headley’s 10-to-one shot. Pellicle was second in the Blue Grass Stakes at Keeneland last week, finishing behind Lord Boswell. But no horse ever has come from winning the Blue Grass to take the Derby whereas the second- ' place Blue Grass finisher has won the run for the roses four times. * Four horses — Kendor,

Fred Cato, one of the team’s vet- | erans, and a former minor league | player, has taken over the managerial duties and has lined up an aggregation that should prove much better than last year's pennant winner, Additions of Bill and Vic Wyss, just out of the army; Paul Bain, navy veteran, Babe Lawrie, former Indianapolis’ Indian, and Eddie Marcum of last year's BE.

Good Mound Staff Ochell Tuck and Lefty McGill, 1945 pitchers, along with Bain and Marcum will give the team a classy mound staff, and if Jiggs Seal, Lowell Young and some of the team’s other fence busters live up to expectations, the Reliables will be the team to beat. : However, Larry Stippich and Bob Elliott, managers of the Leonard and DeWolf - aggregations, have different views on this subject as they present their 1946 lineups. Returned - veterans have added strength to the two teams and may be a big factor in putting them right in the midst of the summer's battle.

It was the second time in two days that the Redskins were held to five safeties although they won the first tilt here on Thursday, 3 to 1, in 10 innings. Shakeup Likely As a result, an immediate shakeup in the lineup is indicated, and the finger points to right field where Butch Nieman, installed as the regular, has only produced eight hits in 14 games and his hitting average is down to a scant ,170. Catcher Bob Brady's average also is far down at .188 despite the fact he was a consistent swinger all last season, The Saints tallied their two markers in the fifth yesterday on two singles, Derringer’s wild throw and a long fly.
