CERTIFICATE
SYSTEMFOR
BETTORS
By TOM THORP


ST. AUGUSTINE. Fla, March
Winter racing enters it's
final lap this week. The 18-day
meeting of the Florida Jockey
Club marks the closing of one
of the most successful winter
seasons in the history of the
American turf. New Orleans,
Aqua Caliente, Cuba and Florida
have enjoyed pronounced success
in their racing undertakings.
The local management looks
forward with renewed confidence
to some of the best sport of the
entire season. Their course is
crowded with some of the finest
racers in the country.
Gains in Favor
For many years winter racing
was frowned upon by the Off
cials of the sport. Ugly rumors,
regarding the way the sport was
conducted at the various winter
courses, caused many to shun
them like scarlet fever. It was
not until the right individuals
began to associate themselves
with the game that the rank
and file began to get interested.
The Florida Jockey Club
made every effort to make the
local gathering just as interest
ing and entertaining as any in
the country. No amount of
expense or trouble has been
s2v by those backing the
local gathering.
They have given of their cash
in manner which wins them
the complete admiration of the
entire racing world.
Finer sportSmen than the local
owners cannot be found in any
sport in the United States or
Europe. They have proved be-
yond all doubt they are prompted
more from a sportsman's point
of view than a financial one by
the admirable way they have con-
Quoted affairs at the popular st.
Johns Park course.
Meet Pronounced Success
The fall meeting Of the Florida
Jockey Club was a pronounced
success. The bangtailS performed
in a way to win the support and
praise of all who are interested
in racing.
Form was maintained at n
surprisingly consistent manner.
ReverSaIs were the exceptions
rather than the rule. In this
respect the meeting differed in
NAV ways to many that have
been conducted in winter rae
ing during the past. 1t set
a precedent for all others to
follow.
Promoters William v. Dwyer
and w. A. Gallagher are contl-
dent that when the final race is
run on March 20, they will have
had the satisfaction of having
staged one of the most note
worthy gatherings of winter rae
ing.
There will be no dearth of rae
ing tools on hand to supply the
patrons with their favorite sport
and everyone of the $50 stalls
available for the stabling OF
horses occupied.
Better Races Promised
From racing standpoint, this
third spring meeting should be
all any lover of horses could ask
for. The condition book calls
for races of better class than any
preceding session and on a par
with events which are conducted
on the major tracks up the line.
The success of the certificate
system of wagering, which has
obtained at Hialeah, assures
liberal patronage from the regu-
lars, those individuals who follow
the fortunes of horses wherever
they run, but whether this coterie
of devotees will be able to stand
off the huge nut" entailed in
conducting a race meeting is
problematical.

FINDS FAIL
TO REACH
THE TOP
BY JACK DEMPSEY

BY JACK DEMPSEY
About the worst thing that can
happen to a youngster in the
fight game is to have some ex.
champion tag him as a prospec-
tive titleholder. So if you find me
tabbing somebody, the smart thing
to do is to bet the other way.
Years after Jim Corbett was
through with the game, he picked
up Tom Cowler and announced to
the world that here was lad who
Dust couldn't miss being the cham
pion. But somebody smacked Tom
on the whisker department and
that was the end.
Young FitZ Lacks Punch
Bob Fitzsimmons had great
hopes in his son, Bob, jr. He
echooled the youngster year after
year. He showed him all the
tricks he knew. Bob wasn't boast
full about what his boy would do
but he was confident. Young
Bob finally made his debut and
he did fairly we'll for quite a few
seasons, but, as a hitter, he was
miles inferior to his illustrlouS
dad.
Jim Jeffries had been scout
ing around for a young heavy.
He picked up many and they all
fooled him. His mOSt>recent ex-
pertinent was with Al MORO, a
young Burbank, Calf, Italian.
Jeff was sure the boy had the
proper makings. He kept him un-
der cover a long, long time, teach
ing him hooks, jabs and all the
other arts. He finally turned him
loose against Armand Emanuel, a
flashy boxer on the coast, and Al
whipped Armand. That was quite
n stroke of business for MORO and
Jim was happy.
Heeds Not Advice
But the next start of the Ital-
fan cured Jim. It seems he gave
certain fighting orders to MORO
and Moro didn't follow them.
Maybe he couldn't and maybe,
like so many other youngsters, he
regarded his teacher as some old
fogie who was just puttering
around with a lot of advice.
Anyway, Moro didn't do as jeff
told him and Les Kennedy, never
q great puncher, poked MORO
30 sleep.
Renuv Leonard offered the
world Sid Terris as a "sure
champion" Sid went along
great for a while-until the
boys discovered he had glass
chin. Benny passed him up
and Immediately afterward said
that he made mistake-that
he meant Ruby GOldstein, not
Sid TerriS.
Ruby went along in great fash
ion until he met Ace HudkinS,
who smacked him on the chin for
q touchdown. So Benny passed
UP Ruby, looked around, saw AL
Singer and concluded that, al
though the other boys had proven
to be mistakes, this Singer was
radically different.
Singers Chin Soft
"He's a sure champion" en-
Unused Benny. So he was. Al
knocked out the wilted Sammy
Mandell but he reigned for only
a brief spell. Jimmy McLarnin
stopped him in a nontitle bout
and a short time later Tony Can
zoneri took away all of Sammy's
championship playthings, rocking
him into dreamland in less than
one round of fighting. Al, like
Sid and Ruby, had a chin that
just couldn't be touched with too
much roughness.

MATCH At COMING
TOURNEY PLANNED
Spencer, Title Holder, Will
Be Unable to Defend
Title This Month.
BY WALTER r. McCALLUM.

TIME assistant professionals
at the golf clubs around
i Washington, all popped up
by the fine weather Of In
dian Summer, are out with a chal
lenge to the assistant pros of Bal
timore clubs for a team match in
connection with the forthcoming
assistant professional champion
ship, to be played at one of the
Washington courses late this
month.
Cliff Spencer, professional at the
Forest Park public course in Baltimore,
Is the champion of the boys who hold
down the assistants berths in the golf
shops about Washington and Baltimore
but Spencer will not be eligible to de-
fend his title this year, since he now
is full fledged pro on his own account
and no longer is his brothers aide at
the Maryland club. The assistants at
the clubs about Washington think they
have good chance to trounce the
assistants of Baltimore clubs and are
prepared to lay small wager on the
line that they can take their Baltimore
rivals in team match, if and when it
can be arranged. The Washington boys
WdAlO W 4lOid IilC1I az W.
lunbia late in October and plan to ask
for the course shortly. The tourney
Is at So holes medal play and the lads
plan to have the aggregate scores count
in the team match.
With such fine players as Gene
Larkin, Archie Clark, Brick Wood,
George Diffenbaugh and Charlie Penna
all classed as assistants, they feel they
would have an even chance to over
nf =ic t re
even though Baltimore has one big shot
in the list in the person of Lawrence
Wisner, aide to Ralph Beach at the
Baltimore Suburban Club, who was one
of the qualifiers from this section for
the P. G. A. championship.
Many of the youngsters are planning
to enter the match-play tournament to
start next Monday at Woodmont under
the auspices of the Middle Atlantic
Professional Golfers Association, which
will supplant the Middle Atlantic Open
of last year.

Billy Nishwitz and Harry Black, fish

them, trolling until they could catch
no more, owing to tired arms and bleed
ing hands.
George Knight at Leonardtown re-

HICllGO, october 9.-They

4 players die BROKE" but not
old Sun Beau.
Packing the latest one-horse bank
roll in all turf history, he munched
his oats in peace and contentment
today, through with racing forever
and hailed as the wonder thorough
bred of the age.
He was given a rousing farewell
yesterday when he crushed Mate by
length and half in mile-and-a-
quarter dash for his last stake, the
$4,000 Hawthorne Gold Cup. The
triumph added $4,000 to his all
time winnings, making it 1916, 744
for five years of campaigning.
Great money winners will follow
Sun Beau. but it is doubtful whether
any Of them ever break his record
for bringing home the cash. Dur
ing his five years of racing he made
IA starts and was victorious 80 times.
His average earnings totaled $500 a
race. His victory yesterday was his
third in row in the big Haw-
thorne race.
Two other horses, Plucky Play and

- ONVINCED that the task O
making and keeping putting
green on the present fifth hole
at the Rock Greek Park public
course is difficult, if not impossible,
the Rock Greek Park authorities have
decided for the time being to abandon
the picturesque little 93-yarder and in
its place will cut up the present eighth
hole into two holes, thus rounding out
the nine. The change is the first to
be made at Rock Creek Park since
the course was opened more than five
years ago and probably will be put in
use Sunday.
The fifth hole, in use for only half
decade, has produced many more aces
than any single hole on any golf course
around Washington, no matter how
lengthy its existence may have been.
The hole is less than 100 yards in
length and plays from high buff to a
small green so feet below. For some
reason it is easy to knock the ball
into the hole from the elevated tee, and
public links golfers have done the stunt
with great frequency since the little
hole was put in play five years back
Unless grass can be grown on the
putting green to remain there through
the hot Summer months, the hole will
have to be abandoned entirely, but the
grass authorities of the Department of
Agriculture are to experiment with a
new kind of bent which may hold up
on the fifth green.
Under the new arrangement of the
holes. the present sixth-a one.shotter
of about 240 yards-will become the
fifth. The present seventh will become
the sixth, and the present eighth hole
will be cut up into two holes measuring
about 240 yards and 375 yards, respec-
lively. The new seventh green already
has been built at the top of the hill
where long tee shot goes at the pres
ent eighth hole, and a new tee for the
new eighth hole has been cut back into
the woods at the right. The old eighth
has been a par 5 three-shooter of 1852
yards, although the green has frequently
been reached by long hitters in two
shots. The ninth will remain the same,
and the last nine, known as course B,
will not be changed, for the present at
least
In some ways the proposed changes
will not be beneficial, for Rock Creek
Park already is too short a course, and
the removal of a par hole will make
the par of the course easier.

~ EPORTS from salt AMI fresh
- water fishing grounds indicate
Y that as the fishing season wanes
larger and better fish are being
caught In salt water large trout and
blues are being hooked. In the bay
proper. from the mouth of West River
around Thomas Point Light down to
,Solomons Island. good big trout and
sblues are being landed, the majority OF
the blues by trolling. The trolling sea
son Is now in full swing, and will con-
tinue until 1t becomes too cold for COM
fort.
In salt water the fish are sticking
close to their Summer-long habit OF
striking best during the cover of dark
ness. The reports indicate that the best
catches are being made after pm. and
gust at daybreak. It does not seem to
make much difference whether the tide
Is on the flood or ebb, so long as the
water is in motion. While the days
have been unusually hot the nights have
been COOL and this GOODNESS undoubtedly
has lowered the temperature of the
water. The water is still too warm for
the best fishing. When its temperature
drops still farther better fishing may be
expected.
In the fresh-water streams bass are
furnishing excellent sport, many large
mouth bass being caught in the Foto-
mac Just below Washington, with small
mouth bass landed in the upper Poto-
mac up to Harpers Ferry and beyond
