Florida Great Spot
But One Can't Work
And Play There, Too.

The vacation is over when you
get back on the job and are glad
Of it. One Of the great drawbacks
Of trying to work and play at
the same time is that you do
neither we'll. And there Is no
more difficult place in which to
try to work than Florida during
the season. Those gals keep your
telephone ringing, wanting to go
to Artie's for cocktail, or the
beach and tennis for dinner. Be-
sides it is the habit Of the tropics
to do as little work as possible
at all times.
But you hear great stories even
II you don't write them. We rode
home on the Florida special with
John Hertz and he told us, for
the first time, the complete story
Of the horse, Reign Count.
Mr.. Hertz is the gentleman who
parlayed a boxing writer's job on
the old Chicago Record into a
fleet Of yellow taxicabs, and the
taxicabS into a sleek and great
hearted chestnut colt that will al
ways be close to his heart.
Rode into Racing
There probably is no man In
America more enthusiastic about
his horses than Hertz. This may
be because he rode into the rae.
ing business, like a circus rider,
on the backs of two memorable
champions-Reigh Count and the
mare, Anita Peabody.
Hertz bit at Willis Sharpe Kill
mer's offer to sell Reign Count
for $4,000 because Reign Count
bit at another horse in the
stretch. It was in the last race
Of q Saturday afternoon at Sara
toga, when the trees were wet
with rain and the track fetlock
deep in mud.
Neither then nor now a heavy
player at the track, though he
did belt the books a bit with
Miss Peabody and the Count,
John had bet 5000 on the Kilmer
2-year-old at 6 to l. Standing
along the clubhouse rails, he
watched the Binghamton breed
er's green and gold silks get left
at the post, and turned to walk
away to catch a train for Chi
cago.
Until then Reign Count beauti-
fully bred, had not been able to
warm himself up in a race. He
: had been bitter disappointment
to Kilmer. But destiny was rid
ing him that gloomy afternoon
and, as Hertz turned with a horse
players sigh, somebody standing
near him said:
"He's running now. john"
Reign Count Gains
The field was strung out Indian
file as they came to the far turn
and Reign Count. running on the
outside, was picking up horses
one by one, like careful old lady
gathering the eggs. Hertz con-
tinued with his story as follows:

took q bite at him, as If to say,
What do you mean by running

as he took that nip at the other
horse I realized that I'd like to

exactly, except that somehow
the action appealed to me as
that of a horse Of great spirit.
1t was a good guess. He never
disappointed me. He hasn't
yet. As long as he lives Reign
Count will have spirit"
Returning from Chicago the
first Of the following week, Hertz
went with the late John Lowe to
Kilmer's barn and offered $4,000
for Reign Count. Kilmer tilted
his price to $4,000. Hertz Of
fered:
"Ill split the difference. Say
yes or no."
Kilmer said "yes" and the Chi
cago man led his horse away by
the halter. After he had found
a stall for him, he returned to the
races. In the paddock he met
another owner to whom Hertz
said:
did you want to buy that
twO-year-Old Of Kilmer'S?"
''NOt especially" said the
man. "Why?"

Hertz.
"WeIl, I thought at $4,000 or

He breezed behind his stable

900 Belmont Futurity a fortnight
later, and off that race became
the shortest price winter book
favorite in the history Of the
Kentucky Derby.
Standing in his stall for five
days before the race with one
foot in pail of warm water, he
came out to win the Blue Grass
fixture through the mud and on
the bit, and after that he won
everything in sight save the Ascot
Gold Cup.
Mr.. Hertz thinks he should have
won that, too. But I presume
all horse owners feel that way
about those certain horses that
get under their skin. Hertz re

GR|FFS HUSTLE
AS FIRST TILT
DRAWS NEAR
BY Times Staff Correspondent


BILOXI, Miss, March 19-
Prospects of their first real ac-
ton of the new season had mem
bers of the Griffmen full of
pep today as Manager Cronin
went about making plans for
line-upS for the two games On
schedule this week.
But big league ball players al
ways act this way during spring
trainin. days because Of the
thought Of what actual compe-
tition means to them in comrari-
son with the so-called drab prac-
tice sessions which have only
pepper games and batting drills
as the featrueS.
FirCt Game Wednesday
The first Of the two games
will be played on Wednesday
when Manager Cronin will send
the Regulars against the Yanni-
gans in an interclub affair. The
second contest will be staged on
Friday when the Cleveland In
dians come over from New Or
leans to help the Griffs open
their 1894 exhibition season.
Cronin already has announced
his line-upS for the Regular-Yanni-
gan fracas, but has still to decide
on the array which will represent
the Griffmen in Fridays contest
against the Indians. He said to-
day that he would definitely an
nounce this on Thursday.
But that Wednesday game. Vet
eran pitchers will really have their
innings that day because Cronin
has told Crowder, Russell, and
Thomas that they would pitch for
the Regulars and that Whitehill,
Stewart and Weaver would hurl
for the Yannigans.
Why Left-Handers?
Arranging it so that the Reg.
ulars would "get" the leftieS,
Whitehill and Stewart, happens
to have its important meaning,
Cronin intimated today. But
here's the young pilots words:
'I'm sending Whitley and
Walter against the Regulars be-
cause Of the belief that We win
be forced tn face left handlers
at the very outset Of the season
when the Boston Red SOx are
played next month. It's almost
certainty they'll pit Grove,
Walberg, WeiIand and even
Herb PennOck against US In
those first few games, 50 I think
it best that the regulars get
accustomed to facing pitchers
throwing from that side.
"On the other hand, CrOwder,
Russell and Thomas will give
the Yannigans plenty to think
about because practically the en-
tire lineup will stand up to the
plate right-handed and will need
that practice against the shoots
CrOwder, Russell, and Tommy
will serve up"
One of the interesting items BE-
sides that Of the pitcher angle" !"
will be showing Of Johnny Stone,
! the new outfielder with the club.
Johnny's work will be watched
closely in the two games for a real
line on his prospects Of filling
Goose Goslin's shoes, both as a
hitter and fielder, and as a base
runner and thrower.
Success for Stone will warm the
hearts of thousands of Washing
ton fans, not to forget the hearts
of President Clark Griffith and
Manager Joe Cronin,
