great many fans who would thank
Mr.. MacFarland for doing this. yours
very truly ERIE.
You're right about MacFarland
success. He is a fighter, too, and he
told one of the big promoters In
Newark he didn't want any favors
and that he wouldn't give any favors.
Despite that fact, he is more than
40 per cent ahead of all records for
attendance in Newark
o
East Orange. n. j., July 20.

We apologize before submitting the
following:
ODE TO THE NUTS.
Old IS. o. & CO.. of but slight re-
nown,
Came scampering in amidst many a
frown,
And told us Moretti would show us
some day.
But they're made of ivory, so what
could we say?
1t was a beautiful evening on mid
winters day.
When perchance/ we read over what
that Co" did say.
They told us that Friol and Hourlier
were punk,
But to believe them, Moretti was the
boy with the jump.
Why, Moretti, they said, had laurels
galore;
In fact, they knew he would win
many more.
We objected, that is. in a sportsman
like way,
And they wrote of history of old
Noah's day.
IT'S better, in fact, to make bum
story short,
For fear of annoying some honest old
sport.
Moretti came. Moretti saw, he fingers
on our good old shore:
He cannot ride, IS. O." is sore. and
of Moretti let's hear no more.
So. here's to the Evening Star and
here's to j. P. N,
And here's to good old Kramer, who
we'll stick by to the end.
They can get away with stage stuff
IN many foreign lanQ,
But they have to show the goods
right here in Yankeeland.
Hoping our apology is accented by
you and readers of sport Topics, :"
we remain, yours very truly,
''FRENcHY CORPORATION"
Mostly about Moretti:
j. p. N:
A few words to "Salt Lake City
FAM" ]. P. NJ, I was reading your
Sport Topics" and saw where Mr..
Moretti failed to show anything, al
gather in at least one point in the
point race. but only to find him shut
out. Don't you think they had bettSr
pack him in cotton and ship him
back to Rome? What I mean is this,
that Moretti was trying to get four
or five points, and as he couldn't get
what he was looking for, he was glad
to get shut out. That was not
Spearss race He went on inside.
1t was. Cavanagh's or Morettis race.
Arthur Ross fined Rutt s25 and did
not fine or disqualify Spears. / would
like to see a match race between Kra-
mer and Goullet. r. G.
July 81, 1914.
