old silver trophy made in 1860 for Col. R. A. Alexander of Kentucky,
was buried during the Civil War with the remainder of the family
plate at Woodlawn, the colonel's home . . . the winner is entitled to
ke‘!{ _the trophy, but it has been returned from year to year.
: As a turf cvent, the Preakness antedates the Kentucky Der
by _ . . At a dinner given in 1868, Governor Bowie of Mary
- land, who also was president of the Maryland Jockey Club,
. wowed the boys out of their chairs by announcing an offer of
~ a purce of $15,000 to be added to a sweepstake of SIOOO each,
. for three-year-olds, to be run at the autumn meeting at Pim- |
lico in October, 1870 ... it was to be called the Dinner Party |
stakes .. . there were 30 subscribers to the stake, but only ‘
seven horses started. |
The winner waes Preakness, a bay colt by the immortal
Lexington out of Bay Leaf, owned by M. H. Sanford. The dis- I
. tance was two miles, and the time over a heavy track, was
3:47 2. ‘
The name was changed after that first year to the Dixie |
: stake, and in 1888 was changed to the Preakness, after the first |
winner, X |

In 1918 the Freakness was o popular that it was necessary to run}
the race in two divisions, with $15,000 added to each event. It wus
not until 1919 that the added money Wwas increpsed to $25,000. That
was ‘the year Sir Barton galloped into history by winning both the
Preakness and the Derby.
The longest priced winner of a Preakness was Nellie Morse in
.1924, and the payoff was $45.60 on each $2 ticket. Man o' War was
a hot favorite. refunding §3.60 on each $2 ticket, or 80 cents to sl.
But back in ’B9, Buddhist paid 1 to 30 in a two-horse race.
i There has been quite a hue and cry about leaving Bill Burke
. Open Champion in 1931, off the Ryder Cup team. . . . The rea
' son he wasn't invited, as | get it, is that it was feared he
couldn’t win on the long British courses . . . Bill ie great on
the short game. . . . He won the Open at Toledo on a course
‘”gplfen call a short layout.
. Six years ago Rogers Hornshy refused a $50,000 contract to manage
the. Cardinals for one season . . . and he was sitting on top of the
world with a block of stock worth $35,000. . . - Now the Rajah is just
am_)g!}er ball player in his late 30s, fighting to come back. . . . And
in 1926 Bill Killefer was coach of the same team . . . gotting a sal
ary something like Hornsby is earning this year. . . . Now Bill is
managetr of the Browns, a $20,000 job.
chk-Hanlgy has devised a new “jigsaw” shift . . . in which line
and backfield come out of a huddle all scrambled around . . . then
find their places at a yip from the quarterback. . . . It is a swell
mareuver, if the players themselves are able to remember their ob-
Jectives. g

Athens Organizer
Athens, the city that organized
the Tri-County amateur Dbaseball
league a few years ago, usually
has two or’'three teams entered,
Last_year the Tru-Fabs won the

hacking by Athens Dusiness con
cerns, and lack of a ball field to
play on Kkept a local team from
entering the first half of the
league this season,
Although there age some 18
players with former league exper
ience avaiable in Athens who hav,
_m\t been signed by other towns,
Athens will not see a league game.
All games will played in the four
league towns, Bishop, former pen
nant winner, and Whitehall are
veteran teams, while “Watkinsville
and Statham are new.
Ancther town consipcously ab
sent from the league this year
is Commerce. The Jackson coun
ty town hswllly has two strong
teame -the Commerce Nationals
Harmony Grove, in the games.
Play "in the first half will begin
next Saturday, Schedules of the
various teams will be announced
later. The first half of the leagu
will close July 1, at which time

be filed.
