RACED LIKE THE GREYHOUND
Botafoqo, Most Famous Horse Of
Argentina, Was Known to Turf
Followers Throughout World.

The most famous race horse that
the fine studs of Argentina ever bred
was probably BotafOgo, for he was
renowned among turf followers the
world over. He died near Mar del
Plata a short time ago, being only
eight years old. Not particularly
fortunate In his parentage, as great
racers usually are, he nevertheless be-
came a phenomenon of the track. At
two years he sold for $4,000 at auc-
ton, although he was never good
looking.
When he raced the horse stretched
himself out like a greyhound. He
made his debut in 1917, and all the
classics fell before his amazing
speed. One day when he was not in
form and lost to Gray Fox the event
was regarded in Argentina as quite
a national catastrophe. In a subse-
quent revenge race" he defeated his
conqueror with perfect ease before
the greatest crowd that ever assem-
bled at the Palermo tracks.

WIN FROM STONEHAM
AND GOODRICH

Raymer made her standing look
better Sunday by winning the game
from Stoneham in the morning and
repeating the trick in the afternoon
with Gdodrich. The playing was
not OF the same quality as put up
last week and both games were too
else for comfort.
Al Stoneham in the morning, the
game started with one man on third
base. one out. and the score 6 to 4
in the first half of the seventh inn
ing. With this start the game
should have been easy, but some
ragged playing caused the game to
tie at the end of the ninth and the
game went eleven innings.
Back at home in the afternoon, the
playing was little better than In
the forenoon, but as the visitors also
suffered from few slumps, the re-
suits were a victory for Raymer,
adding two games to the won col
um for our boys during the day.
AT Virgins rain and hail stopped

played, the score at that time being

Hypocracy Of Loyalty Appeals

Hypocracy Of Loyalty Appeals
The president Speaks Of loyalty.
We have heard such appeals before.
We heard them In 1917 and to-day
We witness the results of the res
ponse to those appeals by the
workers. There are thousands of
ex- service men walking around,
starving for the want OF job. No
government offers them aid, even
small bonuses turned down because
they might upset the nations finan-
ces. We hear complaints OF wound
ed and sick veterans not being ac-
corded decent treatment. Loyalty
appeals to-day are what they were
yesterday-appeals to stand by the
interests Of the employers and ac-
cept the crumbs that may fall from
the profiteers table.
Loyalty asked for today is the
same as the loyalty asked for yes
terday. We would like to believe that
there is such thing as loyalty. but
our faith was shattered when the
profiteers fines handed down during
the war when workers were rend-
ering the supreme sacrifice, have
been ordered returned, while those
who spoke their minds are still left
to rot in prison.
A government that will give the
profiteers the blood-soaked dollars
that it took from them during the
war and keep imprisoned men who
merely stood by their principles clear
ly proves that 1t is class gvernment.
Because we know this to be true and
because we know that thousands Of
strikers know 1t is true and we feel
that the appeal Of the President will
fall on deaf ears. To the strikers
and all workers there can be only
one loyalty and that is to your class.
Be as loyal to your class as Morgan
is to his and II you do you will pave
the way for victory. Let your slogan
be: A united Front and all Power to
the working Glass.
