At OLYMPIC CLUB

Pal Moore. the Lightweight Of Phila-
delphia, had little trouble In outpointing
Jack Dorman Of the Bronx In the main
bout of ten rounds at the olympic A. c.

In the last three rounds and scored so
often that Moore was tired at tie final
bell.
Up to the eighth round Moore had a
commanding lead. as he landed hard and
often with straight lefts to the face.

left swings to the pit of the stomach.
Dorman then cut loose and ripped In
some pretty wallops to Pals body and
jaw. which took the strength out OF
him.
The ninth round was Dorman's, as he
waded in and managed to score repeat
eddy with stiff swings to the body, kid
neys and jaw.
In the last round Moore cut loose in
the first minute n a half and hit Dor
man so fast hat It looked as II he were
going to be put away. Suddenly Jack
got going n threw so man. left and
right swings to fal's Jaw and stomach
that he showed signs of weakening and
backed up. Meanwhile the spectators
stood up and yelled themselves hoarse
at Dorman's great rally.

Jim R~oscnberger. Jim McE:rtee and
Roy Dorland are out to break the 700
yard indoor record at Madison Square
Garden tonight at the monster meet
for a Christmas fund for the benefit OF
the poor OF this city. And as these

This event should be the best OF the

PROMOTERS ASSUME ALL Ex.
PENSES,

To begin with. the promoters assume
all the expenses OF foreign riders from
the time they leave their firesides until
the race IS over. They furnish train
ers, pay transportation and hotel ac-
commodations. Furthermore. they pro-
vide hotel-like quarters In the Garden

bonuses for every team each day II
stays in tine race. The American riders.
too. get in on the bonuses. but have to
nav their own training expenses.
The promotion Of the event also In
crudes a weeding-out process. An IN
stance of this is the fact that Rutt and
stoi. for years competitors in the six
day mill, will not ride this year be-
cause in the last two races Stol quit.

RACE COST MORE THAN $780, 900
LAST YEAR.


The promotion Of the race last year
cost more than $4,000. and It Is prob
able that II will be no less this year..
for the cost varies little from year to
year. And there IL no rebate either. for
the track Is good for nothing but kin
ding wood after the race Is over. In
this connection p. +. Powers. who has
been associated In the promotion OF the
event for nearly twenty years. tells OF
how years ago the promoters figured
they could use the same track every
year. or at least sell II for second
hand lumber. One year proved the
track couldn't be used twice, and
shortly after the man who contracted
for III material as secondhand lum-
Der found he too was stung.
The bowl Is made of / by 2 inch
board, nat sides laid together. so that
no nails appear OF the surface. When
the secondhand man began to tear
down the track and keep the lndivi6&l
boards in good condition he found theYe
would be nothing doing" so now kin
ding wood concerns are allowed to
carry away the track for nothing as a
reward for removing II.
Second In Importance as an item OF
expense Is the rent Of the Garden. which
must be hired for two weeks to allow
for the construction OF the track. That
Is what is going on the big arena this
week for the last time In the historic
old Garden. so soon to fall victim to
wreckers.

Public Has Little Idea of Out
lay of Time and Money
Necessary.

ROMOTING a six-day race. Have
you any idea Of what It means to
provide New York with six days
and six nights Of amusement that is
annually looked forward to? When the
starters nj sends this years six-day
bicycle riders away on their long Jour-
ney at midnight next Sunday the work
OF months and the expenditure Of tens
Of thousands Of dollars will begin to
bear fruit.
The general public Is for the
part unaware Of the great mass OF de-
tail that makes up the preparation for
this annual cycling classic. yet in It's
preparation the event could well be
compared TO the great amount Of work
that produces. for instance, New York's
grand opera season. And the promoters
know, too, that some OF the foreign
riders who have participated In the race
in former years are quite as hnlcky and
grand operate" as the stars that grace
the stage OF the Metropolitan.
To the unin.tiated 1t would seem that
construction of the great wooden saucer
around which the riders whirl would
prove the biggest Item Of expense to
the promoters. yet such Is not the case.
True. the ira ok costs in the neighbor-
hood Of Ave thousand dollars, for It Is
as carefully constructed as a bowling
alley. but this Is a small item compared
with the cost OF securing entries for
the long grind.
The work OF enllsting riders begins
ali over the world at the opening OF the
outdoor cycling season. about May ].
and from that time almost up to the
week Of the race, agents in Paris. Lon

TONIGHT'S ATTRACTION
Royal Sam" And Jolly John Larkins
AT Colonial Theatre

Lovers of mirth, melody and good
singing, and to their credit it can be
said. that they are legion whoare looking
forward to the appearance of Jolly"
John Larkins and his happy flock of
pretty girls and funny boys, in his
new big musical comedy Royal Sam"
at the Colonial Theatre tonight. No
colored comedian possesses a more
attractive personality or greater vo-
cal accomplishment than Jolly" John
Larkins. His comedy vein has gained
marvelously in strength during the
past few years, but not at the loss of
it's purity, as is often the case when
comedians strive for greater honors.
In Royal SAM" it is said that
the word comic" is used advisedly
in connection with this musical COM
edy. and furthermore, that it is
through the wit and humor of the
lines and situations, and not because
of any buffoonery on the part of the
fun-makers. The book is entirely
new and p-to-date-tuneful music,
original song numbers, specialties,
spectacular features and novelties.
Everything is brand new, scenic adorn-
ment and sensatir ms calculated to ap-
peal to the most blase amusement
seeker. The chorus consists of thirty
stunningly gowned young ladies,
with excellent singing voices and
magnetic charms, who form delight
full background for the principals.

NO LONGER MIDDIES
Clifford And Holmes Become Citizens
Today-DrOppsd From
The Service

The official notification from the
Navy Department that Midshipmen
Charles L. Clifford. of Massachusetts,
and CASTOR l.. Holmes, of Mississippi.
had been dropped from the service on
account of unauthorized absence from
their ship, was received at the Naval
Academy today, and the two young
men cease to be mdshipmen from this
time.
The otfense Of which the two mid
shipmen, both members Of the second
class, We're deemed guilty. is consid-
cred serious one. While the ships
of the practice fleet were at Bergen.
Norway, this summer, the young men
overstayed their leave, and the fleet
sailed for Gibraltar without them.
An officer was left, however. and
found them some distance in the
country.
1t was claimed that the young
men had been lost and had not in
tentionally stayed away from their
ships. This excuse was not regarded
as satisfactory, and upon the recon-
mendation of the Superintendent of
the Naval Academy they were order
ed by the Secretary Of the Navy to
be dropped.
