THE SY1
Capot ^
Capot, the runnerup in the Ken- ?
tucky Derby May 7, streaked thru
a light shower Saturday afternoon I
to win the Preakness Stakes by
the margin of a head, but while
doing so, he set a new tract record
at Baltimore's Pimlico.
The Greentree Stable threeyear-old,
given a brilliant ride by
Ted Atkinson, blazed under the
wire in 1:56 flat, wiping two-fifths
of a second off the track record
set by Riverland in the 1943 Dixie
handicap.
Ponder, Derby winner and a 2
to 1 choice to cop top honors in
the Preakness, finished a bad fifth.
Behind Capot, the No. 2 choice,
came Palastinian by a head. Noble
Impulse was third and Sun Barham
came in fourth.
The others in the order they
came in were Curandero, 6th,
Model Cadet, 7th, Old Rockport
8th. and Taran last.
Capot's victory netted $79,985 to
John Hay Whitney and his sister,
Mrs. Charles Shipman Payson, the
Greentree owners.
Capots backers in the Preakness
were awarded $7.00, $3.60 and
$2.60 for $2 in the mutuels.
Spartanburg, three straight from
Knoxville and 2 out of 3 from
Anderson the Tourists showed
signs of the spark that enabled the
club to walk off with Tri-State
League honors last year by a 17!/2
game margin.
Although only two men are batting
over the .300 mark, Buck
Driskill and Bill Jekielek, Ashe-j
ville has scored more runs than
any other club in the circuit with!
129. They stand second in total
hits, and lead the loop in fielding
percentage with a mark of .966.
Appalachian Takes 18-4 ^
Win Over West. Carolina
BOONE, May 14?The Appalachian
State Mountaineers took an
18-4 North State Conference baseball
victory from the Western Carolina
Catamounts here today.
Bill Brantley allowed the Cats'
only three hits, as his mates pounded
three W.C.T.C. hurlers for 18
base blows.
Herb Brantley, Norman Propst
and Bobby Withrow each hit safely
three times in five trips for the
winners.
