NEW system FOR
| SCORING HORSES
WELL KNOWN TRAINER AND
DRIVER OF HARNESS HORSES
HAS DEVISED PLAN THAT WILL
REDUCE SCORING IN RACES AL.
MOST SO PER CENT.

Barney Demarest, we'll known train
er and driver of trotting horses, is go
ing to introduce new system of start
ing harness races this year, with a
view Of eliminating the prolonged
scoring which mars so many meetings.
Believing that better control Of the
drivers is necessary to accomplish
this end, and that such control cannot
be obtained when the starter is in the
judges stand, 100 yards away from
where the scoring begins. he intends
to work from position fifty yards
up the stretch and close by the in
side rail- If the horses are punched
and all going level at that point he
will give the word "Go!" and the race
will be on, though the time will. OF
course, be taken from the Judges
stand. If the horses are not we'll to-
gether he will call them back before
they have scored more than about ONE
half as far as Is usual at present.
A great many horses nova days trot
more than an eighth of mile at their
utmost speed in scoring for each heat,
thus often exhausting them before the
race has begun. Mr.. Demarest is
confident that this new system will re-
duce the scoring in races fully so per
cent.

GORDON Will MEET
ROCKLER AGAIN
MANAGER FOR ALASKAN CHAM
PIoN CHALLENGES JOHN COR
DON FOR MATCH WITH TOE
HOLD RARRED-s1oo AS A SIDE
BET BETWEEN THE TWO MEN.

Manager Rickers OF Leo Rocker, the
Alaskan champion, has issued chal-
lenge to John Gordon for a wrestling
match to be held in Fargo or any other
place some time after three weeks for
a side bet of s1o0.
According to the terms of the chal-
catch-as- catch-can style, strangle
take so and the loser 40 per cent OF
the door receipts or on any other per-
centage basis. and If desired, the win
ner take all the door money.
Rocker was severely punished by
Gordon with the use of Frank Gotch's
famous toe hold This morning he
still suffered a great deal from the
ankle that was worked on, and 1t will
be some time before the Klondlke
grappler will have the leg in shape
again.
Just what attitude Gordon will take
on the matter is not known. The toe
hold is one of his favorites, yet in
spite of this piece of foot movement
Gordon played phenomenal game in
his match with Rocker and should
be willing to throw out the much dis
liked and tabooed hold,
Gordon Accepts.
In communicating with the sporting
editor of The Forum Gordon said that
he would accept Rockers challenge.
Although he believed that the toe hold
was perfectly legitimate, nevertheless
ne wanted to show the fans of Fargo
that he was not afraid of meeting
Rocker.
Arrangements for the match will be
made soon.
