Last spring DIR. G. NJ. Miller, Detroit

old on hfs hands that he decided 10
rid himself OF by presenting her to the
Canadian government breeding ASSOC
citation. Today he wouldn't trade thar
horse for the Dime Savings bank
building. The wind-broken. worthless
two-year-old OF last spring Is For
Fair, the three-year-old who has won
four races at New Orleans this win

at 1924 2-5 for the seven-eighths OF a
mile distance at the Crescent city this
week She Is to be taken to Kentucky
at the end OF the Louisiana winter
meeting, where she will be groomed
for the derby races over the blue
glass tracks this summer. Horsemen
wintering In the south profess to be-
lieye that For Fair Is as likely a
candidate for those big stakes as has
been developed this year.
DR.. Miller secured For Fair last
spring for price said to be 1880.
He raced her as colt over the Can
adian tracks without winning a start.
At Windsor he was informed that his
plug was wind broken. and that was
when he decided to give her away.
But some wise head stepped In. told
what was wrong with the colt and
how to Ak her up The optimistic
advice prevailed. and the horse was
shipped to Kentucky, and thence to
New Orleans. where she alone repre-
sents Detroit.
Last week For Fair defeated some
OF the best handicap horses on the
track in the mile. making the distance
In 1888 AS. but 1-5 slower than the
track record. This week she broke the
sey en-eighths mile record. For Fair

Red Hose Sign Up
Another Catcher

BOSTON, Feb. 12.--Manager CARR
gan, OF the Red Sox, has at last Sc
cured the catcher whom he has been
after, as the signed contract of Pat
rick Haley was received yesterday.
Haley was purchased from the Des
Moines club of the Western league.
He stands five feet 10 inches and
weighs 176 pounds. Last season he
caught in 146 games for fielding
average OF 1874, and had batting av-
erage Of .294, a remarkable showing
for young catcher.
Haley's contract Is with the Provi-
dence club. as Carrigan wants the
youngster to have plenty Of work. He
can call the catcher to Boston II he
should want to use him next season.
However, Providence will more than
likely have the benefit Of his playing.
as the three Boston regulars look
pretty good for another season. Man
ager Carrigan does not intend to
catch q great many more seasons. and
so viii take much palms with the
promising youngsters.

association, has started campaign
to introduce rowing into high school

well enough established In interscho-
lastic circles to pay its own way. One
New York rowing club has given the
suggestion a trial and reports 1t q

The inability of the French to make
