Booting home 1900 winners and earning over $2,0O0,000 for his em. ployers are laurels that little John ny Callahan, for 25 years a jockey is resting on.
 On race tracks throughout the length and breadth of the land, little Johnny has excited countless thou sands with his thrilling streach finishes. gaining the name of Long Shot" Callahan from the number of outsiders he pushed home to victory.
 Twenty-six years ago, Johnny was an undersized messenger boy with yen for horses. One day he bumped into "Fat" Anderson. who owned and trained 8 string of horses. An- derson's observant eyes spotted the kid as talent. Soon after Johnny was at the barrier.
 Diminutive by nature. Callahan never had to monkey with his weight. Maybe he smoked too many cigarets: anyhow. he never grew five feet tall and even today Is we'll un- der . hundred pounds.
 But being a runt had its disad- vantages as it lost Johnny many mounts in the big classics. where the trainers liked the slightly heavier boys.
 Johnny never was much of bet tor. wagering only small amounts and then always on his own mounts. Nevertheless, he was able to retire with . roll close to Si0o,000, and now has | small string of his own horses which he trains and runs for the fun he gets out of 1t.
