tlse stunts, but until they have been
under fire 1 decline to pass final judg-
ment on them.
ITO my mind the ideal athlete is the
one who is best when the necessity for
fighting spirit that counts. There are
lots of fellows who are wonders In prac-
tise, nc matter what line of sport they
may be engaged in. But parlor boxers
seldom are fighters. and many fine
warmup pitchers fall down terribly
when they come to face the music in a
regular game.
MANY a time Ihave warmed up men
who had everything that / ever have
seen a pitcher display. Speed, curves,
control and everything else would be
theirs. and l would feel confident that
they would be able to win that day
If we got them a couple of runs. Then
these fellows would go put to the centre
Of the diamond and show me about
half of what they had displayed in
warming up practise"

Under date of March 6 Elmer Col
Inns. the American paced champion,
says hat the Brussels race looked to
be a great money-maker for the boys.
Elmer adds: Last Sunday Fogler
rode one of the best races of his ca
reer, winning a flve-mile open from
Ellegaard, Dupre, Comes, Hourlier,
Duprey and all the cracks here. While
l went down to defeat before the new
winter champion, Didier, I rode fast,
but not up to what l usually do.
George Wiley has recovered from
his fall and seems to be riding good
again. The boys all leave for America
after the Brussels race. Moran and
Root go by way of Boston, while the
others go direct to New York, leaving
these parts about March 20. Comes
also leaves on the Goth. He is some
rider and Will be a great card for
Chapman. Duprey leaves May 10. 1
do not think he will do as well as
Comes, although he Ia fast.
Parent may so TO America to de-
fend his title. and from the looks Of
things he may be the only one to go
from here. I don't know what I will
do as yet. but will decide shortly"

Had not Joe McGinnity gotten into
communication with John Enzman, the
Brooklyn finger, just when he did,
Enzman might be training with the
Louisville Colonies now, instead of the
Newark Tigers. Scout O'Reilly, who
also offered Roger Salmon a job. had
peer urging Enzman for some time to
go out into pro" society, and Enzman
was just on the point of doing SO,
though he did not want to go so far
from home, when a friend recommend
ed the young pitcher to the Newark
Club, and he was soon signed up.
Enzman lives in Brooklyn and works
as a machinist in a factory In Cypress
Hills. He is rather light, but clean-cut.
and, though 1t Is early to make predic-
tons. seems to have some stuff that
bears the right label.
Says Enzman: I'm not going to go
crazy the first week out. Tn going to
take things easy, the same as l did
when I pitched semi-pro ball. If I
make good, I will be happy. and If I
don't. well. the experience will be In
