friends viii wish more for his continued
success than the jockeys he will have TO
deal with.
The new starter is quite young man.
a Canadian by birth. and a turfraan be-
cause of his love for the horse He was
formerly telegraph operator. but left
that occupation to become turf reporter
for New York daily newspaper. As a
reporter of racing and sporting events
gcrald's first official connection with rae
ing was in 1892. when he was patrol
judge on the big New York tracks.
Later he became clerk of the scales. and
continued as such on the Jockey club
tracks up to the close of last season. He
first tried his hand at starting at a
small meeting in Canada when not occu-
pied on the New York tracks, and was
so successful that he was persuaded to
start at other meetings in the West and
South. His success continued, and since
the beginning of the New Orleans win
ter meeting of 1895 he has been the reg
ular starter at the New Orleans track.
Horsemen of both East and West speak
in the highest terms Of Mr.. F'itzgeraiis
work there. and the success he made
at the Crescent City was enough to jus
tify the action Of the Jockey club in
naming him for starter. In addition to
that. however. he has won high praise
by his starting at Western meetings

while Cincinnati has three to support.
While the fair grounds tracks leads any
one of the three tracks In money dis
tributed, the output of the three tracks
combined is far In excess of that of the
ST. Louis track. While two of the local
tracks are on Kentucky soil. they both
depend almost solely ON Cincinnati for
