MERELY MEN AND MONEY
STAND IN WAY OF RACES
ON THE BELMONT TRACK

NEW YORK. March 26.-It is mere
ly matter of dollars and cents when
the Belmont Park track opens its
gates to racing patrons this spring.
If the directors of that great racing
plant desire it, and are willing to
spend the money, racing could begin
on April 10, the legal opening day, Il
necessary.
Money and men are the .crux of the
racing situation-not horses. The
adjunct. In a short time. three weeks
at most, there will be sufficient horses
ready for an early opening.
Many patrons of racing, having in
mind that the sport in this State has
been in a comatose condition for near
ly three years-since August 81, 1910
have been skeptical regarding an
early start, saying that the tracks
are in no shape to open and that to
prepare the tracks would cost thou
sands of rs-eXtremists declared
it would cost millions.
A personal inspection of Belmont
Park demonstrated that the track
can be placed in a proper condition
for the resumption of racing in any
given time, provided its directors
choose to hire a sufficient number of
laborers. Two hundred and fifty men
working daily could place the grounds
and track proper in good trim in
three weeks; fifty men would take
four times that period The Opening
of the racing season at Belmont Park,
therefore, depends on the number of
men the directors wish to employ

The ninth was Kurtz's best round.
Howard started things by sending

wallops that made Howard vince.
Kurtz followed with another stomach

Howard seemed the fresher OF the

: In the final round Howard came out

without getting a blow in return.
Kurtz landed a good swing on the
jaw and then jabbed to the face, but
Howard was there and shot a right to

forced him 10 hold on. Kurtz cut

He made seven of the homesters
swish the air on strikes, winding up
with a pair of whiffs in the last
round
With one gone in the ninth and
no-hit, no-run game almost in his
clutch, Kunkle got three balls and
two strikes on Hoey. the only left
handler he had to face. The situation
is generally thus when some one steps
in and spoils the pie with a scratch
hit, but Hoey didn't stick his finger
in the pie. He struck out as artistic
ally as 1t is possible to strike out.
Manager Bill Dahlen, of the Brook
lyn team, will send his Yannigans
here for a game on Sunday. while the
first team is colliding with the Tigers
at Savannah. Dahlen has asked Smith
to loan him some players for the
Charleston game. Smith may let
Brooklyn have Wendt Shack and,
perhaps, Barclxlow. Harry Smith,
however, will not take a chance on
weakening his regular squad in the
