AGITATION A MISTAKE. Prominent Men Declare Curtailment #1 Sport Harmful, Promirent members of the New York Jockey Club ested in the welfare of the through- bred, interviewed regarding Gen. W. B, Haldeman's endorsement of the pronosition to suspend racing in Ken- tucky next autumn, were unanimous in the opinion that such a move would be a great mistake. Major August Belmont said: "Those opposed to racing and the improvement of the horse are attack- ing a great institution and one that is #f much more importance than is sfnerally conceded by the layman. The improvement in the All European countries are conduct- ing racing, and in most cases it is encouraged by the goverfiment, even providing funds. "Here we do not ask for Govern- We give and provide ment funds. everything, France has a large fund to improve the breed of horses, There is no such fund here. This agitation in Kentucky ig most untimely, and 1 think it is time members of the Re- mouirt Department sheuld step in and show the necessity of fhe con- tinuance of racing to preserve itself." Richard T. Wilson corroborated Major Belmont"s statement, adding that if racing ceased in this country .it would be taking a backward step which could not he corrected in some years. "It would be difficult to start over again on the same basis as we are on now," said Mr. Wilson, "and I hope the question in Kentucky will] be well and intelligently thought out." teint Connecticut Debars Boxing, Joseph R.

It was said here this afternden. that steps will be taken to prevent other boxing matches in the State, 'on the ground that if the Fulton-Dempsey contest-avould have been a violation of the law, others are equally illegal, *« BONES AS FOOD IN ENGLAND From the Uni such straits fea as evidence of the food shortage there.

A New Development Has Been Caused By the War. There is something about rifle Young and old read with zest the story of Old Leather Stockihg and his marvel- ous achievements with his rifle the pride of his life--Killdeer. Shooting has undefingble attrae- tions because it affects so much of the physical and mental make-up--true eye; steady hand, quick détion; ready perception; also. a sixth sense. The feel of the rifle butt against the shoulder; the glimpse along the sights; the noise of the report, and the perfect target---all have.their part in the attraction of the sport. It is simple, but attractive; and has much of training that goes far- ther than mere shooting. Will, tem- per and nerve control must be stud- ied, and in a way that adds a keen personal interest -to one's self-analy- sis, or personal study. Shooting in one form or another was an essential part of the training of many of the warld's greatest men, The real sport does not demand the exclusive use of 'hunting pre- serves and large rifles, but in most cases is toned down to the equally exciting, but no less exacting, shoot- ing of the small calibre rifles at short ranges in established shooting gal- leries; in temporary shooting stands in the basement or barmw, or, better still, in the open with natural or ar- tificial targets, ammunition and guns, No personal control needed for correct firing. Even at the gal- lery the enthusiastic or careful rifle- man prefer to use his own gun so that he may be sure of sights, trigger pull and accuracy. In the temporary home or. neighborhood gallery, the keenest interest, and, when several are shooting, the greatest rivalry de- velops and the sport is at its best, A rifle shoot immediately oregan- izes itself around a box of cartridges and a little rifle, It draws in the en- tire party, regardless of sex or age. Experience in shooting develops self- reliante and personal confidence, Ac- curacy with the rifle is a necessity with the good soldier, and a pride to the civilian. Novice Needs Advice. The novice with the rifle, before understanding shooting, should first have personal advice and instrue- tion from one experienced in the use of firearms so that he may know fully |; the principles of handling a gun; pointing at the target, and when, as well as where, to shoot. 'Safety First and Perfect Score" should be the motto of every rifle shooter, young or old. Arrive To Help Giants, Two new players. have arrived from Texas to help the Giants climb out of second plage. They are Sick- ling, a shortstop, and Ross, a left- handed pitcher, hoth from San An- som. Sickling will get a chance. to try his hand at second base, Another pitcher who is slated to arrive is Biil Ryan of Torrington} Cotn., who was the star twirler of the Holy Crozs nine this _ spring. Ryan is a left-hander, and attracted the attention of the major against Dartmouth, He™San Sure Hit "Em. Cactus Cravath made his 100th home run last . week against Cardinals. This equalled the record for circuit clouts 'held by Hans Wag- I The batting of the Philly atar, noteworthy than Cravath's record ner, however, is more that of Wagner. was made during nine playing sea-| sons, while Hans Wagner pluyed twenty-one years before making his 100th homer. Cravath's best year was in 1915, when he banged out twenty-four base bits. Power Boat Cruises. The Ottawa Power 'Boat Assocla-~ tion hag made arrangements [oc two long-distance cruises. It wad ar- ranged to hold the first cruise down the Ottawa River as far as St. An- drew's, Que. which is about 60 miles away at the foot of the Lake of Two Mountains. This will take place on Saturday, June 28th, and the boats will be away over th week-end and Dominion Day. The second cruise will take place In August and will be to the Bay of Quinte. The motorboat enthusiasts will go up the Rideau to kingston and then down to the Bay. Some may go via the Trent Canal. Is Now Robbie's Mainstay.
