Will Soon Meet in One
Mile Event

NEW YORK. Jan. 30.-Morris Wood, of
this city, will soon meet Phil Kearney in a

championship in the two-mile class, and
there are no contestants for this place, as
he is regarded as the best men in this coun
try at that distance. luarnej and Wood
will soon meet at Olympic park here In a
one-mile event. The winner will be given a
medal emblematic of the national amateur
championship.
Morris Wood is stocklly built and is
lightning fast on skates. He has won all
the amateur ico-skating events In New

RAUCH WILL FINISH
TRAINING IN TRIS CITY
Clever Chicago Boxer Has W ired
diat He Is in Verv Good
Condition.
HIS HARDEST BATTLE
Morris Rauch, the Chicago featherweight
who Is matched to box ten rounds for
a decision with Abe Attell, of San Fran
cisco, in Indianapolis next Monday even
ing, will arrive in this city from Chicago
this evening. Rauch wired to the sporting
editor of the Journal last night that he
is in the best of condition and it will be
only necessary for him to do light work
to keep in shape for a very fast bout.
Rauch has engaged rooms at the Denison
Hotel for himself and trainers. He will
work out at one of the local clubs during
the rest of this week and probably will
box several Indianapolis boys during his
training. Attell will not arrive here until
Saturday or Sunday.
One of the hardest battles that Rauch
fought in 1903 was with Harry Forbes, who
recently boxed ten rounds to a draw in
this city with Attell Forbes won the de
cision over Rauch In fifteen rounds at Kan
sas City in one of the fastest battles be
tween little fellows ever seen in that city.
Rauch has also fought draws with Jack
O'Keefe in recent months and a ten-round
draw with Joe Cherry, the clever Michi
gan fighter.
FAIRBANKS WILL OWN
STABLE OF RUNNERS
NEW YORK, Jan. 20.-Crawford Fair
banks, of Terre Haute, Ind.. will .conduct a
stable of runners this year. Mr. Fairbanks
hr.s for several years been identified with
trotters and pacers, and this will be his
first venture with the thoroughbreds. Major
G. A. Gagg, also of Terre Haute, is In New
York for the purpose of making arrange
ments for the establishment of the string.
During his visit he will look the ground
over thoroughly with a view of securing
the services of a jockey as well as such
horses as are available at this time. Some
of the horses of H. M. Ziegler are consid
ered desirable by the young owner and it
is more than probable that from that stable
several selections wlli be made. To com
mence his racing career Mr. Fairbanks will
confine his efforts to the middle West, al
though he may be seen In the Eastern
ranks before trie close of the metropolitan
season.

SAN FRANCISCO. Jan. 20.-A11 the fa

the twenty-eight bookmakers in line had

sumed command and won pulling up from
Fossil. The muddy track prevented fast

Riders, Whether at Fault or Wot,
Have Always Held to Be in
the Wrong.
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal.. Jan. 20. A ques
tion that is at present agitating the minds
of many California racegoers is. What
should be the power vested in a starter of
a field of horses? At present, either under
the rules or by long custom, the starter
holds a position on the track which is al
most czarlike in Its prerogatives. A stnrtr
can set a boy down or fine him heavily and
there is no recourse for the jockey, whether
he is innocent or guilty.
It is simply a case of the starter being a
party to the error made and then passing
judgment as to the guilt of himself or the
jockey. It Is plain that if a bad start is
made the responsibility lies distinctly be
tween the starter and the offending Jockey
or jockeys.
Now. starters are only human, and the
higher his reputation as a wlelder of the
Mag the more anxious he is to maintain it.
If a start is spoiled by a horse wheeling or
bumping into others or through any uth r
cause the most conscientious starter in the
world would be only too prone to fix the
blame of the bad start on the head of the
luckless Jockey astriae the offending horse.
The : turter is naturally straining every
nerve to make a good break and when one
or more horses spoil the start what is more
natural than to punish the Jockey for what,
after all. may be the gtSTtSr mistake?
It must be conceded right here that In
most cases the boy is no doubt to blame and
merits what he gets, but in case he does not
where Is his recourse? Cnder the present
system he has none whatever. Where there
is a foul at the finishing line or anywhere
else on the Journey there the jockey has the
privilege of going into the judges' stand,
pleading his cause and stating his case, and
the officials take cognizance thereof. But if
the trouble happens as the horses are sent
away he has to take his medicine in silence,
the verdict of the starter being final and be
yond recall.
The starter is thus delegated with more
power than the very judges themselves. Cn
der the ntw California Jockey Club rules
the duties of the judges are simply to place
the horses as they pass the line. Questions
of fouling and other details in a disputed
case are passed up to the board of stewards
for judicial action. But when the starter
has issued his fiat neither judges nor stew
ards have aught to say in the matter.
This does not seem fair to a boy earning
his living by riding horses. He may bo
on some Intractable beast, of which many
are daily allowed to go to the barrier, and
the spoiled start may be the horse's fault
nnd not the jockey's. Put the tirst impulse
of a starter, be he ever so fair-minded, is
naturally to visit the punishment on the
head of the boy on the horse. There is no
starting judge there to decide between the
starter and the Jockey, and the latter occu
pies exactly the position of the prisoner
being tried by the arresting policeman
acting as judge.
These comments are called forth by the
recent setting down for ten days of Jockey
Hildebrand. This boy was on a hore
name Flea, and the result proved that the
Flea had better have been on the boy than
the boy on the Flea. The latter horse
Fpolled a good start and Starter Holt man
set Hildebrand on terra llrma at a verv
critical time In the Jockey's contest for the
Erati gold-mounted whip. Hildebrand had
the whip as good as won. and no doubt lost
It to Tommy Burns through being set
down.
in the meantime other boys got on Flea,
the latter proving as irritating to his new
riders as the horse s nam- sake is on the
human hide. Realizing that he had made
a mistake, Holtman reinstated Hildebrnnd
before his sentence had expired, but too
late to save the trophy of the coveted whip.
That either Jake Holtman or Dick Dwyer
would consciously wrong a saddle artist no
racegoer in the country believes, but they
are only humans, and as such are subject
to error. No doubt both would hail with
delight the appointment of a starting judge
to arbitrate matters, thus relieving them
of a great responsibility without in the
least curtailing their usefulness. It would
take from their shoulders the misery of
listening to the pleadings of a Jockey's rel
atives and friends, who at once interest
themselves in a deposed rider. All such
could be passed up to the starting judge,
who would have to listen to and pass on
the case.
As for assistant starters that hold horses
by the head, they should be dispensed with
altogether. A norse thus held cannot get
a fair start, and a horse that will not
willingly face the barrier should be
schooled until he will do so. He is supposed
to recite at the tape and not study his
lesson there. It took many years and much
newspaper drilling to abolish the trouble
some recall Hag and It is time that the
assistant starter departed and the starting
judge arrived.
GIPE IN THE PRACTICE
WITH SHORTRIDGE FIVE
He Infused More Spirit Into the
Players than They Have
Shown Recently.
The members of the Shortridge basketball
squad "got together" in earnest yesterday
and the result was that the best practice
of the season was held in the Y. M. C. A.
gymnasium. Every member of the first
and second teams worked hard and the
general play showed a great Improvement.
Captain Walter Gipe has made up his
studies and was back in the game. The
return of Captain Gipe seemed to infuse
more spirit into the players than they
have shown for some time. The Shortridge
team will undoubtedly win from Butler on
next Saturday night if it plays with the
same vim as shown yesterday afternoon.
The teams lined up as follows:
First Team. Position. Second Team.
Riddle Forward Bristor
Mo Kinney Forward Shank
Balmer Center Hackney
ftipc Guard Sheets
Patton Guard Clark
Palmer, at center for the team, did the
best work in practice. Hezlep Clark played
guard on the second team and made a
good showing.
The Shortridge girls' basketball tem will
play the five fiom the Kokomo High School
at Kokomo next Saturday afternoon. A
ttumber of rooters from the North Side
school will accompany the team to Koko
mo. DOUBLE HEADER TO BE
PLAYED AT Y. M. C. A.
A double-header basketball game between,
the Manual Training High School and the
Piqua. O.. fives and the Shortridge and
Crawfordsviile teams will be played In the
Local Y. M. C. A. on Saturday niRht. Feb.
6. The Phjua team claims the champion
ship of Ohio and has lost but one v tine thitf
s. (son. The Crawfordsviile High School
team has a wealth of speedy players to
draw from, and both games will doubthss
be hotly contested. This will be after the
close of the present City League series, but
tne players of the two local teams will
practice dally to keep in shape.
Toreadors Will PI Koom It.
The Toreadors (June. '0I, the athletic club
of the Manual Training High School, will
play a game of basketball with a pickorl
Kam from Roosi B this afternoon at the
Y. M. C. A. This "frut" has not had much
practice and because of this fact has lost
the majority of its games, but to-day It ex
pects to "clean-up." The line-up of the
teams will be:
