Gibson by Dad White. The boy was
too i'll at the time to help train the
filly, SO his father did the job How
we'll he did the work is shown by
the record books. Rosalind finished
the 1885 season as the champion
2-year-old and entered her 3-year-
old form this season as the top
flight candidate for Hambletonian
honors.
This is where Gibson re-enters
the picture. Now fully recovered,
young White started early this year
to train his own mount. He is ready
to face the starter-and his father
and will do so in the first Grand
Circuit meeting to be held at Gosh
en-, July 21-25. In this clash, on
Historic Half Mile track, Ben will
pilot one of Will N. Reynolds two
great 3-year- olds, Rosette or Ed
LaSater.
That race at Goshen will be mere
ly the opening gong of battle that
will last all summer. The highlight
will come later in August at Gosh
en- when Rosalind will try to cap
ture the Hambletonian. While many
owners and trainer drivers do not
particularly mind losing some races
on the Roaring Grand, the Ham,
bletonian is one they are all Out
to capture.

Peter Wins Out

Two years ago wounded female

the injured bird and it soon be-

Despite her name, this spring a
proud old gander lowered around

SPORT SLAN1S

The youngest driver ever to COM
pete in the Hambletonian; the only
driver to pilot his own mount; the
favorite, laboring under the disad-
vantage of having his own father
trying to beat him = that's Gibson
White, 21-year-old son of the old
master, Ben F. White.
Ever since Gibson started accom-
panying his noted father on the
] Grand Circuit his one flaming am
bition has been to drive in the great
Goshen derby, which annually is
held at Good Time Park Having
reached his majority in June, Glib
son is certain that it is fitting and
proper that he should drive in the
tenth renewal of the trotting turf
classic August IL.
But while young White long has
cherished this dream, he frankly ad-
mits he never guessed he might
drive his. own horse at Goshen, and
the top winter book favorite, at
that! So if Gibson doesn't win he
will have to do. a lot of explaining
to himself.

BY HENRY McLEMORE

MIAMI, Fla, Feb. H. WP) - I
Mayor A. D. H. FosSey of Miami has
his way about it, the 1910 Winter
Olympic games will include tarpon
fishing from a bobsled, golf on skis,
and perhaps tennis on ice skates.
The mayor, bristling with indigna-
ton right down to his last initial,
mailed a letter today to Avery Brun-
dage, chairman of the American
Olympic committee, who is in Gar
misch-P -Partenkirchen, refereeing the
fist fights which always feature che
goodwill gathering of the worlds
athletes. Fearing that Mr.. Brun-
dage, even if he happens to get the
letter, will toss it in a SnoWbank af-
ter noting its contents, we want to
tell you what it said.
The mayor, with a perception
amazingly keen for a city official,
has observed that each year millions
of citizens come south for their win
ter sports. And being winter sports.
they must be added to the Olympic
roster And he told Mr.. Brundage
so; said he would greatly appreciate
having Sail-fishing added to the 1910
games.
AS Mayor Fossey did not suggest
that the next games be broken into
two sections, with the ice and snow
performers working in one place, and
the tropical winter games III another
We presume he intends for the two
groups to work on the same site.
Frankly, we don't believe such plan
is feasible. Let us assume that May
or FosSey had written his letter in
1882 and sail fishing had been made
part of the 1886 games.
To do any decent sail fishing
you've got to have sailfish. That's
obvious. Now research shows that
no one had ever actually proved
there are sailfish living on the Alp
mountains around Garmisch-Par-
tenkirchen. There have been ru
mors of sailfish streaking through
the snow in that section, to be sure,
and one peasant claims to have trap
ped a beautiful eight t-footer in a
pine tree. But doubt was cast up
on his story when he couldn't pro-
duce his fish, and the flask on his

st. Bernard was found to be drained
dry.
So, if sail fishing had been added,
the fish would have had to be taken
to- h-Partenkirchen n
been planted in the snow. This
would have been very expensive
when you figure the cost of catch
inf them, their transportation, and
the clothes they would have required
to keep from freezing to death. Sail
fish trousers don't come cheap, you
know. Neither do sailfish long
drawers.
Even if the two groups of winter
gamers worked out a home-and-
home arrangement whereby they
competed in the south one time and
the north the next, it wouldn't be
satisfactory. The ice-skaters would
be lost down here with no ice to
skate on. People have been known
to try and skate on a lake or pond
when thethermometer was in the
30'S, but they've never made much
of go of it. The same is true of
bob-Sledding on sand and through
Palmetto bushes. And after three
or four skiiers had landed, rumble
seat first. on these wicked little sand
spurs which grow down here, there
would be an official complaint.
We trust that Mayor A. d. H
Fossey, who must have been christ
ened with alphabet soup, sent his
letter to Mr. RY-lIpdaoa fret nIo uc
for it's strictly a first class gag.

PITCHES YUMA
TO VICTORY

Behind the four hit pitching of
Satchel Page, Yuma diamondeers
eked out a 81 victory over Jack
Stark's All Stars Sunday afternoon
on the Yuma field.
Page gave the fans the most
colorful exhibition of pitching ever
seen in this section, striking out
21 batsmen and demonstrating his
real skill in the ninth inning by
calling all of his teammates into
the bench and then whiting three
El Centre men on nine pitched
balls.
Nelson and Harris divided the
pitching honors for Stark's team,
allowing only four hits and two
unear ndernsu
unearned runs.
Lawson Willingham scored the
only run for Ell Centro, polling out
home run in the first inning.
Page then settled down and began
his long series of strikeouts.
One of the largest baseball
crowds in several years turned
out to see the great Negro pitcher
perform.
