Famous Men Of the Cycling Game Are
Going to Tell Evening Star Readers
All About the Six-Day Race.

interesting yarn in regard to the win
ming of the race. AS the readers may
know, mcfarland is to have full
charge of the race and the riders
during the grind. This should insure
a great race and an honest one, and
MAC" is on record on that score.
O.
In order to give the fans the race
from every angle and every
style the Evening Star has Sc
cured the services of Alfred
Goullet, Jackie Clark, Joe Fogler and
Jimmy Moran to give their impress
sions Of the race as 1t goes on day
after day. The one story by Jackie
Clark, printed in the Evening Star Of
Wednesday, was an able effort ana
shows that Clark can write some as
well as ride. The sketch of Mrs.
Jackie Clark was also a pleasing ac-
count of delightful woman. Goul-
let Is sure to have something to say
especially worth reading. He is the
hated rival of Clark and he declares
he is going to beat Jackie and the
whole "caboodle of them in the
coming grind. We will read Mr..
Goullet's stories with avidity. Fog
Ter is the "Old Battler," and he is
always interesting. He, too, is on
the warpath, and what he is going to
do and what the others are going to
do will be given to the readers of
the Evening Star by Josephus him
self. Moran is the "bear-cat" Of six
day races. He is said to be on the
decline, but he declares himself that
he is Just as good as ever" He is
aggrieved at Jackie
Clark and Joe Fogler, and he says
he will run their ankles hot. How he
is going to do it will be told in Jim
my's inimitable way in the Evening
Star.

close down. II Hillside is to open,
those in control of affairs there
should place at the head of the club
man who not only knows the game,
but who will not allow any Of the
numerous rodents around here to get
into the clubhouse on boxing nights.
That is where the trouble lies. 1t is
not against the manly game of box
ing that people take offense and OBJ
ject and protest; 1t is against the fol-
lowers and fighters who are always
looking for the best Of it and who
are always doing the wrong things
in the wrong time. Yes, Hillside
might open and run smoothly If the
right man was placed at the head of
the organization. But by all means,
the club should not open its doors
unless it is sure of its footing and
unless it intends to run its shows in
f1rst-class manner.

About the best description we have
read of the Jess Willard-C Carl Morris
fight referred to the scrappers as
| Hams-with or without eggs," Yes,
that's just about it-hamsl Willard
was of the Chicago variety and Nor
ris was cured further West. Nasty
things of every description are being
said about the contest. but the writer
| who declared it to be a fake was as
wide Of the mark as the writer who
gave the decision to Levinsky over
! Weinert. No. 1t wasn't fake, thank
goodness, it was too putrid for that.
A fake is awful, but the willard
| Morris bout was terrible. 1t was SO
bad that it seemed shame that
any one should be permitted to lose
a bet on the outcome. But say what
you will, it wasn't a fake.
@
| OF Willard, it might be said that
he has the "malings," but he hasn't
got the heart. He has the punch, but
he hasn't got the spirit to go in and
make 1t count. He lacks aggressive
ness and he just won't lead. Yet he
seems to be the ideal man for a
champion. He is big, but well built,
and he has wonderful and an attrac-
tive frame. He is said to be "pecu-
liar" and he acts at times as If there

observation Willard should have
beaten Morris easily. although in the
ninth round Jess seemed to be so
tired that Morris. II he had any
brains at all, might have fought his
way to victory; but as friend of
mine always remarks when such
topics are up for discussion: IF he

Mathewson was considered a star

his capacity for going through and

In talking about the Weinert-Le-

"Levinsky is just about as good as

I was doing when matched Weinert

Taking up Woodruff's tip concern
ing the opening of a boxing club at
Hillside Park, inquiry develops the
fact that there is something in the
statement. Eddie Wood. who is said
to be the manager of the Hillside
Club, was over at Browns last Tues
day night mixing up with the big
leaguers," and 1t was said that he
had been negotiating for boxers for
the opening show. to be held. it was
said, on December II. which is next
Thursday. However. so many re-

the opening of Hillside that we will

A boxing club in this vicinity would
be welcomed by many of the best
citizens around here. The game is
all right, but now and then, some

YALE MADE MONEY

From financial point OF view,

son was one of the best Yale has
ever had" The attendance at the
Yale-Princeton and Yale-Harvard

$4,000 and 48,000 respectively. Based
on these figures, the statement says,
the receipts from these games were
about $4,000, one-half of the gross
| earnings of the two games, $160, 000
After deductions for expenses, it is
stated, the net earnings from the
| two games amount to about $35, 000
The receipts from the other games
were about $4,000.

Agitation for a new coaching sys-

it would be ridiculous to assume that
the disorganization evidenced among
the coaching staff during the games
will be tolerated another year.

other expressions. Morris as a plain
and he would fight, but since he has
learned to box he has made an awful
show of himself. Another thing, Carl,
at first, was noted as a clean, fair
fighter. Lately he has assumed to be
very foul in his ring manners. He
hit low and was disqualified in his
bout with Gunboat Smith, and he
butted like a billy goat in his contest
with Willard. AS possibilities, both
Willard and Morris are sad mistakes
Against easier marks than themselves
they look pretty good. but they lack
class and are only the most ordinary
