will be final. A boy who does not
keep his horse in line will be warned.
II he ofends again he will be fined.
For a second offense he shall be sus-
pended. and II he be a persistent wio-
lator. his license shall be revoked for
the balance Of the season"
Does any one suppoe that the walk
up system would be a failure after
a talk of this sort with the riders?
Does any one suppose hat Il boy
would-liks Bullman in the M%etropoli-
tan Handicap-persistently try to beat
the gate, and duck under the barrier
half n dozen times. II he knew that
a revocation OF his license stared him
in the face?
Tho simple wore OF a starter should
be sufficient at the post. He should not
be compelled to curse or threaten or
caiole riders. There should be Just as
much discipline among Jockeys at the
start of a race as there is in a troop
OF army cavalry. And 1t is all u ques-
ton of authority; and that, authority
lies with the Jockey Club. Competent
observers declare that the starting In

In ENGLAND. is the veriest farce.

harass the starter. They obey his
slightest word. The starting of race
horses in this country is a dwelling
farce, simply because the Jockey Club
will not compel jockeys to obey the
starters.
Owners to Blame.
Much OF the blame OF bad starting
In this country may be put upon own
ers and trainers. They say to their
Jockeys: You get away with this
horse. If you are hned I'll pay your
fine. II you are suspended. I'll get III
iiuence at work to have you rein
stated"
With these orders 10 set the author
ity of the starter at naught, the boy
goes TO the post and takes all kinds
OF chances. The other boys do not pro-
pose that this rider hall ge. all the
best OF 1t. and they move when he
moves. The result Is confusion and a
bad start in nine cases out of ten.
The solution is simple. Enforce
obedience at the post. gentlemen OF
the Jockey Club. and there will be bet
ter starts. less reviling OF the starter,
and more satisfaction for every one.

There were fifteen starters in that

no chance with the start they re-

II any worse results could be obtained
under the "walk-up" system of start

The writer has no desire to put the
blame for this start On Mr.. Fitzger-

some of the youngsters were green ard

It only shows he Ill effects Of the
vacillating policy of the Jockey Club.

Mr.. Cassidy had not shown that 1t
