doubtful if any man, anywhere
can ever point to single char'

real ForZley."
As to his real character there are
as many different opinions as thera
were men who knew him.
But regardless of what otherS
may say this writer is convinced
that the true FOrZleY was the man
who sat in the New Orleans coffee
shop five years ago and across the
coffee cup spoke to youthful com
nanion in q voice that shook with
emotion to give him this advice:
Don't ever play the ponies, lad:
You can't win. The racing fire
rets in YOUR blood Once you start
YOU have to go on, and on. and on
What the race track once gets
it never turns loose.
If was the advice ForZley gave
in the heydey of his successes. II
was the final word he whispered
there in Roosevelt Hospital year
ago when, broke and down and
ont, he turned his face to the wall
and died.
For nothing but death could part
them.
Ana even in death he'd rest
With the paddock smell in his nos
trils ;,
And the racing fire in his breast. "

There was something prophetic
in his statement.
From New Orleans he went to
New York and Maryland with the
boast that "at last there was a
stake to give the Eastern layers
some trouble"
The New Orleans meeting ended on
March Is. When the Saratoga
meeting opened on the urSt "l
August Nick Forzley was so badly
broke that he had to borrow car
fare to get to the Spa. The whole
winnings of the New Orleans meet
ing had gone back to the bookies
and with them some seventy thou
sand dollars in addition.
Nick +. didn't cOnfine his
gamblinge to the race track.
He loved all card games and
was particularly fond of faro.
One night i'm New Orleans,
when the cards were running
with him, he broke three faro

nervous When he won he re
joiced like kid with a new toy
When he lost he became sullen
and sorrowful. His personal feel
ings and his emotions were only
skin deep-and his likes and dis
likes he carried on the surface.
He was very opinionated and
glored in his own opinions. Ihat
perhaps, was his greatest weak
ness. for from start to finish ol
his career he refused always tt
accept advice from men who woulc
have befriended him. He made

For 12 years Tex was my loyal
friend. His word was as good as
gold. No one ever doubted it. Calm
and cool under all circumstances
he would tell me in his quiet way,
''Don't worry, Jack. everything wllI
he all right These were times
when 1 was upset over matters
that seemed like mountains to me
But 1 could always go to rex
and be content to let him GUIDE
me through the shoals: No matter
now swamped he was with What
most men would deem gigantic
Jobs. Tex's mind would grasp every
detail put before him, and When
he told you anything, he meant IT.
There was no halfway business
with him.
No one can say what the world
of sport has lost in the passing OF
Tex Rickard. Death claimed MN
lust when he was at the peak OF
his wonderful career. He was ever
planning new ventures into helds
that only he saw open for develop
ment. Where others failed rex
went through to glory and success.

And with it all he was the
most modest man living. NO
better evidence of this can be
offered than the fact that his
intimate life story was sever
