Messenger Boy to Greatest Jockey
In Five Years, McTaggart's Record

derstanding horses are Johnny's
recipes for riding to fame.
Since he first took off his A. D.
T. blue to work around the stables
of the New York track Johnny has
learned his horses, has worked,
slept and lived with them and has
kept away from the bright lights
which have proved the ruin of so
many riders.
Some people say it takes great
horses to make great riders"
Johnny said. That's all bunk.
It's knowing how to ride. If two
jockeys of the same ability ride
against each other the best horse
will win, but a good jockey will
often beat a poor jockey on bet
ter horse"
Johnny makes this statement
good by winning now and then
with outsiders.
Johnny's ambition to become a
jockey came from his brother
Tom, who is a great rider, but he
has since eclipsed his brother. i.
Last year Johnny rode the
great Campfire and other mounts
and led all riders in winnings.
With Campfire alone he won al
most $4,000.
When he entered the racing
game at II Johnny weighed SO
pounds. Now, at 81, he scales at
103 pounds.

will prove a boomerang remains to
be seen.
Leonard is a socialist. a pacifist
and conscientious objector.
When he went to Washington,
ostensibly to consult naval au-
thorities about enlistment, his
real object, according to men close
to Leonard. was to find whether
political influence would save him
from the draft.

and fighting spirit
the Red Sox always have been
able to dig up for final dashes.
Fighting in foreign fields never
has had any terror for the Red
Sox when they we're close to the
top. The performance of George
Foster in holding Cleveland to one
hit in their recent battle does not
augur well for other clubs out
look, when backed with sterling
ability by Ruth, Shore and Leon
ard.
The National league race seems
to have reached point today
where the main point for specula-
tion lies in whether Schupp, Sal
lee, Perritt, or some other Giant
will pitch the opening game of the
worlds series for the New York
club. Only miracle can now
beat the club out of the pennant.

She reads about the robbery at
her boarding house breakfast the
next day and hides a grin behind
the newspaper. That's when the
young man beside her asks,
What's funny about robbery"
Take another look at him. He's
the hero. He writes novels, but
hasn't sold any yet.
She has two other admirers
among the boarders but falls in
love with the novelist.
At the climax she is arrested
for robbing her own house. The
sketch from the movie scene shows
her holding out her wrists for the
handouts.
Now the Climax.
Then she's identified and the
joke is on the detectives.
Her young man hero hears that
she has been arrested.
He doesn't know that the sup
posed theft has been exploded and
attempts to save her by rushing
in and declaring that he commit
ted the robbery.
Then comes the final scene
wherein she says he's nice young
man and that she loves him. Fade
out.

NEW YORK, Aug. 9.-Barely
ahead of the parade, the White
6ox must begin at once to pull
out or suffer the result of a tear
ing battle up to the end OF the
American league season. Playing
baseball with the same speed at
which they are now travelling, IL
they get the same assistance from
other clubs, they will win the pen
nant, with a game or SO to spare.
1t is not consistent with former
affairs in the national amusement
to suspect that other American
leaguers will continue to just be
content to sail along behind, so,
while meeting Boston, Washing
ton, Philadelphia and New York
on the Chicago grounds, after the
finish with Washington and Cleve-
land, it should be reasonably GER
tain that they will Pull out, for
the Red Sox will be meeting Cleve
land, Detroit, Chicago and ST.
Louis on foreign fields.

had a bad scare in the opening
games of the junior tourney yes
terday when George Hayden trim

Pessemier had gone into the match
a little over confident, while
Hayden. a heady player, was
shooting perfect tennis.
The young champ recovered his
poise in time, however, and won
the next two sets, 90, 6-1.
Fast play marked the opening
rounds of the tourney. One Of
the upsets of the day occurred
when Alva Roberts defeated Tom
Carpenter, who was considered Q

nouncement of intentions, when
he declared he would don the

Leonard has no intention OF en-
