The stewards rec ommended that Manny Ycaza, who claimed the foul, be sus pended indefinitely. Since the Pimlico meeting ended with the running of the ninth race Saturday, the stew ards were powerless to act against Ycaza although they first took such action. Instead they recommended Ycaza's suspension to the Maryland racing commission, which will take any necessary action. The stewards said Ycaza tried to hold back Greek Money while riding Ridan. It recalled the 1933 finish of the Kentucky Derby in which Herb Fisher and Don Meade crossed the finish line slash ing at one another with their whips. Howevrr, Greek Mon ey's jockey, intent upon get ting Greek Money home, ap parently did not realize Ycaza was trying to elbow him back. Greek Money charged home a nose in front of Ridan in one of the most dramatic finishes In the history of the Maryland ciassic. The two horses battled all Plone for there was a bit, gap of five and one-half lengths hack to Roman Line, who fin ished third in the field of 11. Decidedly, record breaking winner of the Kentucky Der by two weeks ago, started a big move from far back in the field on the final bend but he had no punch in the stretch and trailed home a poor eighth. Jaipur, who wound up a co favorite with Ridan, also ran out of gas and finished even farther back, in 10th place. This was the third win in four races this year for Greek Money, who carried the blue MH Golfers In Tourney Medford high's golf team will leave this morning for Portland to contend in the two-day state championship tournament.

Thigh Tear Suffered By Mantle By MILTON RICHMAN New York - (UNI - Pain wracked Mickey Mantle was back in the hospital Saturday with a muscle tear In his fight thigh that could mean he'll be lost to the Yankees until at least June 1 - or maybe even longer. "There is no way of know ing how long he'll be out," said Dr. Sidney Gaynor, the Yankees' team physician. "We won't be able to tell much for a day or two." ' Nevertheless, officials at Lenox Hill hospital, where Mantle spent the night, said his injury "appears to be reasonably severe," and Yan kee manager Ralph Houk was resigned to the loss of his star center-fielder for an indefi nite period. Mantle suffered his latest injury with dramatic sudden ess during the ninth inning of Friday night's 4-3 defeat at the hands of the Minnesota Twins. There were two out and the Yankees had the potential ty ing run of second base when Dick Stigman relieved winner Don Lee for the Twins. Man tle swung at Stigman's first pitch with all he had. The ball was hit so sharply it nearly knocked down shortstop Zoilo versalles. Versalles fumbled the ball momentarily, then made a fine throw from deep short to first base. Mantle was streak ing down the base line for all he was worth. Suddenly, about 15 feet from the bag, his right "side buckled and he fell on his left knee rolling over and over on the ground. "I thought I had a shot at it," Mantle explained later, referring to the hot smash he hit back at Versalles for the final out of the game. "I no ticed that he fumbled the ball so I tried to give it a little extra. All of a sudden, I heard something pop in my thigh. Then I toppled over."
