HICKMAN HANDICAP !. POSTPONED A WEEK
Bad Weather Is the Cause of Bike Race Being
 Postponed

The Hickman road race which was to until next Thursday. This action was taken in order to enable the track around the East Lake to be put into better con- dition.
 The weather has been so bad for the last week that all work on the road around the lake has been suspended Fur thermore the riders who expect to par ticipate in the race have not been all lowed the opportunity of training thor oughly. By postponing the race week much better event can be pulled off.
 Ped Hickman, who has charge of the race, expects a large number of entrants. Several old timers are expected to enter the lists.
 There have been several changes in the original plans of the race. Instead or having two races, one for the whites ana one for the black boys, there will only be one big race for the whites. This was decided upon because Manager Hill Of East Lake park states that there is a rule which bars the entrance of negroes into the park.
 The race will be a length of five laps around the lake This will be about six miles, as one lap is a little over mile The ''old timers will be given handi' cap in order to give the less experienced riders a better chance of winning.
 Additional prizes have been secured through the National Cycle Trade Direc' torate There will be about 25 prizes m all, including watches, medals, Jeweiry and bicycle equipment.
 we intend to make it the best bike race ever pulled off in Birmingham, said MT Hickman 'The track will be of the best, the prizes the most liberal, and the strongest list of entries in some time What could be better?

Corbett's Daily Letter
 On Great Sport Topics
Rr LANES J. CoRBETr

One of the strange rulings of ring war fare is that when a fighter discards a manager who helped to make him famous 1t seems to spell disaster for the athlete.
 Ever since Ted Kid Lewis cut the ties that bound him to Jimmy Johnson, the welterweight has known nothing but bad luck. Johnson lifted Lewis from obscur- ity to fame. and finally piloted him to the elterweight championship of the world Through all the time that Johnson was guiding the destiny of Lewis. the welter- weight raked in huge purses and was ever a drawing card.
 But Lewis got the idea that managing his own affairs could be made quite as effective, and much cheaper. Lewis cut adrift from Johnson and anonunced to the civilized world that henceforth he was to be his own business agent
 Misfortune came almost at once. Lewis couldn't get very many bouts thereafter and the few he got paid him only a small sum in comparison with what Johnson used to get for him. He finally succeeded in making a match with Jack Britton and in the battle which followed Britton knocked out Lewis for the first time in his career. Shortly afterward illness came to Lewis and even his most intimate friends fear that he has reached the end of his 'big league" string.
 Irish Patsy Cline was a New York youngster who was fighting in the pre- limnary ranks when Willie Mcdonald discovered him. The two teamed up Very shortly the skillful Mcdonald had Cline said, "Get thee hence,' or some Patsy was one of those harum-scarum kids who had but little business judgment of his own, little appreciation of the ne cessity for keeping in condition and who liked to have his own way about every thing. Mcdonald repeatedly cautioned him against the temptation of disspa- tion, but Cline needed him not at all.
 Eventually, McDonalds advice, given kindly but firmly, angered Cline. Sue cess and flattery had gone to his head. He didn't think that Mcdonald had any thing to do with his uplift nor with his annexing big purses. So the youthful Cline said, Geo thee hence" or some thing to that effect, to Mcdonald, and Clines name almost since that time dis appeared from the newspapers.
 Charlie Weinert cut a wide swath through the heavyweight ranks in New Jersey Jack Bulger then prevailed upon Weinert to permit him to manage nls

affairs. The Weinert-Bulger combination quickly loomed up with considerable im- pert on the pugilistic horzon The skill full Bulger so arranged fights for Vein ert that the youngster moved along sure ly, yet swiftly, toward top ranking among the heavies. And all the while that Bulger was Weinert's manager. gold poured in upon the fighter and he waxed rich.
 Just about that time Weinert decided that there was no use in giving Bulger S250 out of every 5000 which he earned with his fists. Like many another fight CT he determined that he could handle lis own affairs in a very effective fash ion. So he fred Bulger and a short time afterward began making matches for himself In few months he was l sllidding down the pugilistic chute, and now is in the has been" class
 Willie Ritche might still be the light eight champion of the world if he hadn't decided to discard Billy Nolan, whc made him. Nolan saw great promise in Ritchie during the youngsters early days. He became Richie's manager and through the skillful maneuvering and the clever matchmaking of Nolan, Richie quickly rose to a championship. and to the ownership of small-sized fortune
 And then, when he seemed to have reached the heights Ritchie determined that a manager was quite unnecessary. He broke with Nolan and began to run his own business. It was Ritehie who made the match that took him to London to fight Freddie Welsh At the time all of Ritchies friends advised him against it. But Ritehie went ahead with the programme-one that Nolan, crafty and shrewd never would have permit ted. Ritchie lost his title-by decision-in that contest, just as many had predicted
 Sam Fitzpatrick was the man behind' Jack Johnson. While he handled the ne- gros interests Johnson moved upward to fame and fortune. But, eventually there came parting of the ways. and from that time on Johnson's pathway, instead of being strewn with roses, was thorny. He got into legal difficulties and had to leave the country. Then he went to Flu rope and squandered part of his for tune At last he fought Jess Willard and the championship went back to the white race.
 Those are only few of the many in stances in ring history that would seem to show that fighter is jinxed who at tempts to go along on his own way and discard the man who helped to make him famous.
