Keep the came Alive.

New York. March 2s.-The race-track
owners. controlled by the Jockey Club.
began a series Of imDOrrmt conferences
to-day. but none Of them could make a
definite statement as 10 TIE future
One Of the leading attorneys for the
race tracks said after some questioning:
Personally, do not believe there viii
be much racing this year- There have
been SO many mistakes IN the handling
Of affairs since the Agnew-Hart law went
into effect that the track owners are in
a pretty mess.
''Afost OF them 90 not know which way
20 turn. and are ayerse 10 dropping thou
sands or dollars again FOR the sake Of
keeping the game alive
The positive statement was made by
several race-track men that the Eastern
campaign viii not open before April a
when Pimlieo's spring meeting begins,
and that the local season viii be inau-
gurated on May q The reason for this
arrangement, they SAID. vas the desire OF
the New York tracks % avoid a conflict
with Pimlico.
Other raCe-track stockholders expressed
the opinion that AQueduct viii begin on
April l3 with four days a week and "a
meeting Of nine DAYS. These conflicting
statements plainly indicate The uncer-
tainty OF the present racing situation.

freshman at the college. He twirled last
season for the Mount Airy team. OF Phil
adelphia. and, although he failed to get
away with his game yesterday. has all
the earmarks Of a pitcher
he has a world OF speed and was a
complete puzzle to the high school boys.
who are credited with but three hits.
One bad inning. the fifth, during which
ne issued four successive passes and a
hit 10 the first five batters who faced
him. lost the game.
These passes. coupled with a hit and a
muffed fly in the outheld, netted the
high school aggregation five runs. and a
lead which their opponents failed 10
threaten during the remainder OF the
game
Boetler. who oficiated on the slab for
the high school team. pitched a great
game, and with proper support. would
probably have gained 2 shut-Out He
allowed but six hits three of the
scratchy variety. and gave three passes

contributed by the opposing slabman.
Considering the fact that this Is the first
game that he has pitched, his work is
particularly cOmmendable He has the

and sharp breaking curves. and should
be a big help 10 his team during the high
school championship series.
