(BY Wagner.l

In order to be certain Of giving the
Annex eleven a good battle next Sun
day, Manager Healy Of the American
Chain team, has arranged to have
Gordon of Brown University, wear a
local uniform. Gordon appeared
here with the Providence Steam Roll
ers few weeks ago. He Is a re-
markab1e kicker and on that occasion
he astonished the spectators by max
ing drop kicks from the SO yard line
in practice. Gordon will be used in
the backfield and it is expected that
he will make at least one field goal.
The Chain management will also
have Brady, the collegian who gave
such a remarkable exhibition last
Sunday when he played end for the
Arms team. Chief Meyers of the
Arms will be in the Chain backfield
and two other collegians, Murphy and
Murray, will play the guard posi-
lions.

are always coming up. He declares
that if a sporting writer asks a mag
nate how he would like to have a
certain star player on another club
the magnate admits he would like to
have the player. Then the writer tells
the public the magnate is after the
star in question.
There is talk of matching Young
McAuliffe and Danny Cou1on for the
star bout in the show to be held at
the Casino the latter part of this
month. Promoter Ducky Holmes
has secured McAuliffe's promise to

HORSE REVIEW BOOSTS
FAIR RACING PROGRAM

The Horse Review OF April 10 car
ries an interesting and compliment
tary paragraph in reference 10 the
racing program and purses offered
by the St. Joseph County Fair and
Amusement association, II is stated
that the initial fair Of 1918 caught
on" in fine shape and plans are being
perfected for bigger things this year
The race meeting on Sept u, 10.
IA. o. Is. Is most favorably men
toned and the entire racing program
for the FIVE days is given In addi-
ton 20 the early closers at inter
mittent dates. there are II events.
purses from $3.50 for county trotters.
20 $500 for free-for-alls. TO close
Sept. 2 with Sec'y A. Frank. On
the final day. Sept. Is. the free-for-
alis will entertain, the association
Offering 800 extra 10 the drivers
who beat the state half mile track
records at both gaits and consola-
ton purses OF $500 for trotters and
PAGERS to round out the card.
The total purses Of $4,000 is
spoken Of as forming the most pre-
tentious array OF race attractions
that nave ever been offered by a
fair association with a half-mile
track. Predictions are made that
the events will attract horse owners
with racing talent that have never
before considered anything but full
mile circuits. II is further added
that for horsemen TO overlook this
meeting will be positively criminal
With such a strong endorsement
from so reliable a source as the
Horse Review and with other race
horse publications boosting the
events in equally emphatic terms it
is felt that the coming fair races
will show racing stock and records
that have never been equslled in a-Dv
similar event
