it came sprinting time, and he
jumped by the champion, going into
the first turn on the last lap. He
forced Krafhcr to back up a little
and he opened up a gap of a good

Moretti is coming into his own, and
he is bearing out all the good things
General MacFarland said about him
before he came over here. For a time
Moretti was a disappointment. and
even some of his Italian admirers for

Moretti has more than earned his
keep since coming here, and now he
is in a way to earn some money for
the promoters. The way he is riding,
he Is likely To beat any one, and the
next opponent he will be "sicked

Jackie Clark twice, once at Brighton
and again at Boston, last Saturday
night. and he has made Joe Fogler

He has also beaten ALI Grenda and
he has beaten Cavanagh. but Goul-

battle for the championship between
these two stars all kinds Of methods
