became somewhat "peeved." Then
too. Fogler didn't get along very well
with Mory Gordon, the trainer, and
Gordon, in whom Goullet has great
confidence, said he wouldn't work in
any camp in which Fogler was to be
cared for. Fogler. it is said. earned
the disrespect of Gordon through his
cranky manner during the New York
race, and on Saturday night, after
the fans had booed and roasted Fog
Ter something awful for the way he
roughed Walker and Cory, Fogler
| blamed everything on to Gordon and
accused Mory of allowing him only
an hour and half's sleep all week.
That settled everything, as far as
Fogler and Gordon were concerned,
and Mory told Goullet, who assured
Mory that he would never again be
''bawled out" by Fogler
g
Gordon had a whole raft of COM
plants stacked up against Fogler and
he was sore to the quick when the
week was over. Mory declared the
camp was a regular family affair with
four or five of Foglers relatives doing
the bossing' and the debating. Other
little things came up during the grind
that caused slight arguments, and
Goullet, after the race was over and
after listening to Gordon's report of
the weeks doings in the training
camp, said that he would suggest an
other partner for Fogler, and declared
that he would ride in Paris with Gren-
da. It may be that the Paris promo
ters, like P. T. Powers, will insist on
Goullet and Fogler riding as team,
in which event someone will have to
do some tall Smoothing to get Cor
don to take charge Of the camp. Floyd
MacFarland can do it, and he may do
it, just for the sake of the race.

r. s., that you did not mention the
Greek language. 1t seems strange.
The colleges of this country think it
important enough to teach it and you
do not think it important enough to
mention it. p. p.
All right Peter. One could say that
the 1000 or more languages spoken
are all important. However will ac-
cept the suggestion and mention
Greek as one of the principal Ian
guages in the world.
