FIGHTERS ARE WILLING
TO HELP COMRADES
Few Pugs Hold erudge Against Those
They Have Met in the Ring
After Battle Is over

popularity of the boxing business
Is illustrated in the fact that profess
sional boxers seldom carry grudges
against each other outside the ring, al
though, Of course, there are exceptions
TO the rule, and some men who have
fought have become lifelong enemies,
but II is safe to say that more cases
could be named where men who have
fought bitter contests have afterward
become the fastest friends.
Those who are too opposed to the
sport on general principles could hard
ly be made to realize the fact that men
who are trying to knock each others
heads off one night could be at all
friendly after the contest was over
But such is the case in the everyday
life of the boxer. For the most part
they are generous i'm their nature and
they are willing to do anything in their
power to help n comrade of the ring
who has been brought down by misfor-
tune.
A case I'm point is that of Peter Ma
her, whose career as a boxer has been
one of the most profitable of the mod
ern fighters. Since he took up boxing
he has made what, if kept together,
would have been a small fortune.
Like many before him, however, It
has been come easy and go easy with
the big Irishman. He spent the money
almost as fast as he got it and then
sickness and bad luck followed fast
on him. At the age when he should
be able to retire i'm the prime of life,
with enough to have kept the wolf
from the door in his old age, he finds
himself penniless.
Then the good-heartedness Of the av-
erage boxer began to show itself Some
of Maher's friends proposed to get up
a benefit for Peter in order to relieve
his financial distress, and no sooner
was the announcement made that such
an affair was being considered than l.
most every boxer offered his services
to help make the affair a success. Men
whom Maher fought the hardest and
who were his most strenuous opponents
in the ring were the first to come for
ward to offer their services. Such men
as Jack O'Brien, Tom Sharkey and Bob
Fitzsimmons volunteered to take part
in Maher's benefit entertainment, either
to box Maher himself, to box against
each other or to do anything that
would help Peter to make his benefit a
success.

the ruling against Trainer Tomilson,
who is charged with running Nellie
May in shoes not in keeping with the
racing rules. While the action of the
judges was laudable inasmuch that it
was intended to correct an evil that
hurt the game, the officials have made
an example of an inoffensive trainer,
and at the same time are allowing
form reversals of the worst kind to
go unnoticed. Well-to-do owners are
escaping the official eye of the judges,
and altogether there has been enough
in and out racing since the be-
ginning of the season to cause the
suspension of not a few of them.
1t developed yesterday that Tomil-
son bet on Nellie May the day she
ran with heavy shoes and that he was
entirely blameless as far as being in
on a crooked deal is concerned. La
mar Brothers, owners of Nellie May,
are new i'm the racing game, and what
ever connection they had with the in
fraction of the rules was due to ig-
norance,
While the Ascot officials are looking
around for eligible heads for their re-
form basket they would do well to
turn their searchlight ON some of the
more prominent owners and not uphold
the dignity Of the race track by WELD
ing the AK on the small fry. Stewart
Polk. owner of a string Of cheap plat
ers, is under the ban now and has been
asked to explain the last race of his
mare Nanon. Judge Hamilton is of the
opinion that Nanon was doped on Jan
uary and has begun an investiga-
tion, in hope of being borne out in his
suspicious. Nanon showed marked
activity at the post that day and was
ordered to the schooling list by Starter
DWyer.
