TURF NOTES.

The Orange county circuit-Endicott,1 Monroe, Goshen and Middletown- where entries close on April 5, are go- ing to race all their events this year except the colt races, on the three-heat plan, every heat race.
 This is an innovation for the famous half-mile track circuit but horsemen generally will be pleased with the change and the crowds which attend these meetings will no doubt like it better than the old three five sys- tenn
 The purse will be divided at each town according to the rule covering the tthree-heat plan and this will give more horses opportunity to win money. This condition should serve to help the entry in the Orange county circuit. Not in years has there been such a demand for stalls at the Readville track as this spring. The famous course will be fairly alive when the there will be at least 200 horses quar- track received it's first narrowing Mon- day.
 The fee to name an entry at Endi- colt, Monroe, Goshen and Middletown, the Orange county circuit, is but 1 per cent. of the purse. This amounts to only $10, at Monroe and Middletown, and $2o at Endicott and Goshen. Just l think of being able to name an entry for $1,0o0 purse for s10 and for a $2, 900 purse for s20. This ought to attract entries.

corbett Astonished carpent1,r

Jim Corbett recently astonished Car pentier by telling the Frenchman that he (Corbett) had won the worlds title before the present heavyweight cham pion of Europe was born. Corbett de- feated John L. Sullivan, champion of America, in 1892, but failed to van quish Peter Jackson, who in that year was the heavyweight champion of England and Australia. It does not follow that Corbett could not have beaten Jackson in 1892, for in 1891 the Californian boxed the negro 61 rounds to a draw. But the fact remains that Corbett did not defeat Jackson for the worlds title. It is singular coinci- dence that Sullivan also failed to gain worlds championship because of his failure to defeat Jackson. The negro made himself the champion of Eng land and Australia when he knocked out Frank Slavin, Australian title
 holder in the National Sporting club
 London, May 30, 1892. Jackson, on No
 vember II, 1889 had won from Jem
 Smith, heavyweight champion of Eng land, in two rounds. At that time
 France was not factor in pugilism and Jackson had beaten all heavy weight champions except that of Am terica.

Seventy y-six thousand structures had been erected or repair ed by the end of August, 1919,. and 60, 900 additional buildings were then under construction. About 550,06e building were destroyed or damaged during the war In the same period, 89 per cent. of the destroyed railroad trackage had been rebuilt, an area of 1,500 square miles of shell-riddled, till able land cleared up.

 The French people have made sur prising progress in the period since the armistice in readjusting industry to a peace basis. As early as Febru ary, 1919, the minister of industrial re- construction reported that out of a
 total of r,7o0,000 employees occupied on November II, 1918, in a group of government and private plants, 1.Soo,- 900 were already engaged in peace time pursuits.
 A later investigation conducted in 1886 industrial plants in the occupied
 area employing more than 20 workmen each, shows that by November 1, 1919, | total of 1885 establishments had re- i stunned operation. By November 15 1919, the government had made ad- vances in excess of 5000, 900 francs to

HARVARD oARSMEN MAY TAKE
 PART IN WORCESTER REGATTA

Cambridge, Mass, April 5-Harvard university probably will have an eight cared crew in the national amateur rowing regatta at Worcester in July Olympic regatta in Belgium. Coach William Hains said Sunday that he planned to assemble such crew i'm mediately after the Yale-Harvard re- gatta at New London on June 25, from those members of the varsity and sec- oid crews who wish to make the trip.
 All possibility of Harvard's defend ing the Grandl Challenge Cup, which Fit won at Henley several years ago, has been abandoned because of con- victing dates. Haines said. Major Fred w. Moore. chairman of the Harvard Athletic association, said he thought it probable that a Harvard crew would go to Worcester, but that it might compete without official designation, because 1t would be formed after the close of the. college year from men of different eights.
