MAHER ON RACE HORSES.
Thinks English Are from II to Fl
Pounds Better Than American.

In the latest issue OF the Taller to
hand from across the water Danny
Maher, the American jockey. compares
the American and English race horses
and awards the palm to the British. His
opinion is that the best American horse
is from fourteen TO twenty-one pounds
behind the best English. Maher says:
There was d time many years ago
when 1 was under the impression that
the racing in America was the finest in
The world. Since, however, I have been
tIding in England 1 have quite changed
my views on this subject, and. indeed.
when / say that without a shadow OF
doubt. both English race horses and race
courses are absolutely top hole 1 feel
that ! am on safe ground.
Still, absurd though it seems. I have
met big bunch of racegoers who hold
the opinion that England is behind the
times IN racing as in everything else
This seems TO me utterly absurd In the
first place, the majority of English race
courses are in every respect up 10 date.
and as for Newmarket-well I never
want 10 ride on a finer course. and l am
also quite certain that l never shall.
The great expanse Of green turf there is
always In perfect condition and to those
who love racing out of sheer enthusi-
asm for the sport there is something
truly inspiring about the course at New
market
again, when comparing English race
horses with American. the latter, I think.
90 not come out any too well. for only
on very rare occasions in the land of the
Stars and Stripes are such fine speci-
mems Of the thoroughbred foaled as Rock
sand. Ard Patrick. Spearmint-to say
nothing Of equine wonders such as Pref
" Polly-aH OF which are anything from
fourteen 10 twenty-one pounds in front
OF the best American horses.
/ have seen il stated in several news
papers that American jockeys hold but a
poor opinion Of the English methods of
racing. Now, I should like to contradict
this widely circulated statement for as
a matter OF fact 1 have never met an
American Jockey who has not been abso-
lutely delighted with the reception that
he has received from the racing and non
racing British public. There are one or
Two other countries l could speak of in
which foreign jockey does not always
meet with fair play. but in England ev-
cry stranger is treated with the greatest
courtesy, and, indeed. when I first came
over here many keys-Morny Cannon
for instance-went out of their way 70
make me feel at home. It is on that ac-
count that though America is my real
home, l shall always feel that England
Is a very capable understudy."

PENNSY'S ATHLETIC POLICY
University to Seek Alliances with
Western Colleges.
Relations Severed with Both Prince
ton and Harvard After Beating
Their Football Teams.

Philadelphia. Dec. 22.-The University Of
Pennsylvania athletic authorities have
determined on new policy 10 be pursued
in the future Il is nothing more OF less
than an alliance with the strongest uni
versities Of the Middle West. who are 70
be met IN football, baseball. and track
athletics in preference TO some Of the
Eastern institutions which have figured on
the Quakers' schedules in the past.
For several years Pennsylvania men
have been working 20 bring about a meet
ing on the gridiron with Princeton. These
efforts have been attended with failure
year after year. and now It is doubtful If
Penn viii make any further advances to-
ward the Tigers.
When Harvard, after losing twice 10
Pennsylvania, refused 10 schedule another
game, Pennsylvania promptly took I'D
with Michigan and made two-year con
tract with the Wolverines. So well pleased
were the Pennsylvanians with this new
alliance that they are now negotiating for
a game with Chicago University. This
year Pennsylvania has one big game short
on her schedule, and the Chicago contest
is desired to round it out properly. The
scheme is TO play Chicago here in 1907.
and then play the return game in Chicago
the following year. This would bring
Michigan and Chicago here In alternate
years and would form an ideal schedule.
The only Uneasiness caused by this ar
rangement is that it would give Penn
the hardest schedule her team ever had.
The Michigan and Chicago games are big
enough of themselves, but in addition 10
them the Quakers have about all they
can handle in Cornell. Lafayette. and the
Indians, whom they must meet on Frank
I'm Field each year. But the Quakers are
proud Of the fact that they are the only
Eastern institution which is consistently
willing TO meet all Corners Western men
apparently appreciate this on PennsyI-
yania's part, for the QUakers have given
them games when every other Eastern
university TUNED them down.
Pennsylvania has suffered similar treat
ment from Yale. Harvard. and Princeton
III the past, and does not think il good
craftsmanship Both Harvard and Prince
ton quit playing Penn after each had been
soundly beaten by the Quakers twice,
while Yale ducked just in time. Now the
Quakers think they can do the most for
their university from both the athletie
and the educational viewpoint. by aIlying
with the best Of the Western schools.
II not this year. at least very shortly
Penn IS certain 10 be holding dual track
meets with Michigan and possibly Chi
cago- There viii probably be also a repa-
tition Of the Western baseball trips with
which Penn formerly ended her baseball
season. The management is now irving
to arrange for a tour OF the Western
universities in June, and if the sanction
of the faculty is secured the trim will
certainly be made.
