Special Dispatch to The Stor

MIAMI, Mar. 24.-Most sue
cessful race horse trainers are
former jockeys who come by the
profession naturally. But Eugene
Jacobs, leading trainer at the
recent Hialeah meeting with 13
winners. came out of a Wall
Street brokerage Office and
learned about horses from a man
long famous in racing-his older
brother, HirSch.
Eugene was a star student as
a boy. He entered Erasmus Hall
High School in his native Brook
lyn at IL, graduating at Is. He
worked the summer months as
Wall Street messenger. Hirsch
wanted to send him to college,
but Eugene most call him Gene)
didn't want to wait until he was
old enough to enter one and
stuck to his job with the broker
age firm. He was a 26-year -o!d
cashier when the company went
out of business in 1899.
Gene couldn't find another Job.
It was then that Hirsch put him
to work walking hots and han
ding other chores around the
stable. Just as in his school days,
Gene proved an apt pupil under
a master teacher who was strict
and thorough. Hirsch led the
American trainers standing in
number of winners Saddled from
1888 through 1899, missed in
l940, and was tops again from
1941 through 1944-the leader
in II Of those IL years.
Trained Hirsch's Horses.
Gene progressed to the point
where he would take some of
Hirsch's horses out CT town or
train them in the East when the
more famous brother took some
of his charges out of New York.
When Gene joined Hirsch in
1899, brother Sid was the fore
man. All three were at Hialeah
this winter, each a noted trainer
with his own string.
There are six brothers and
four sisters in the family. The
Oldest brother, Harry, is man
ager OF the Isidor Bieber-H -Hirsch
Jacobs Thoroughbred Farm near
Baltimore. Irving is a New York
eye surgeon and Albert is a
handy man around Genes barn.
Their 82-year-old dad, Jack,
travels everywhere with Hirsch.

Fort Myer. an 87-55 winner over

doing odd jobs and walking
horses to keep active. Gene, 40,
is the youngest brother.
Gene follows the formula he
learned from Hirsch in training
horses. THAT means hard work
and common sense" he explains.
Giving each horse individual
attention, placing the horses
where they belong, selecting
jockeys riding in top form, and
so on. I found out hong ago
that training is no cinch; you
start about 6 am. and keep at
1t for IL hours or SO, until the
days racing is over. And it's a
seven-day-a-week job"
Wild Agent First Winner.
Genes first official winner as
a full-f1edged trainer was Wild
Agent, which he purchased. from
Paul Sanford for $4,000 in the
spring of 1914 at Garden State
Park. Wild Agent won three of
five starts for Gene that season
before going wrong. The stocky,
thin-haired Jacobs acquired a
few horses in Florida the winter
of 1944-45, but the national
blackout of the sport caused by
the war forced Gene to return
to a Wall Street job. He spent
the early mornings at Jamaica
with his horses and the re-
mainder of the days at his job
until racing was resumed in the
spring.
Next he claimed a horse
named Colonel Mike for $500
late in 1948 and developed him
into a 1949 stakes winner. But
Gene says the best horse he's
trained was Mrs. Louis Lazare's
SheilaS Reward, champion
sprinter of 1950-51. Last year
Gene was ninth of all American
trainers with 10 victories-just
behind brother Hirsch, who had

Minis Heavy Favorite
Over Green Tonight
In Turner'S Ring

Middleweight Holly Minis of
Washington is a hefty choice to
continue his march to the top
tonight when he takes on Eddie
Green in the 10-round feature
boxing match at Turner's Arena.
Green, from Kannapolis. N. c.,
doesn't have a reputation to
match Minis. who only two weeks
ago knocked out the previously
unbeaten Willie Troy, but his
record shows him as a good,
steady workman with a reason
able number of knockouts to his
credit.
Both are experienced ringmen,
with Minis getting the edge be-
cause of the higher caliber of op-
ponents he has faced. He twice
took Johnny Bratton. and two
years ago made a fine stand
against Sugar Ray Robinson.
Green has done most of his fight
ing in Southern rings against
comparative unknownS.
Strong Preliminary Gard.
This will be the third boxing
show put on by Promoter Vince
Mcmahon since he took over
Turner's Arena, and he seems to
have arranged the same kind of
supporting cast that made his
previous offerings SO popular.
Heading the list in the prelim-
inaries is Featherweight Jimmy
Cooper. who wants a return shot
at Gene Smith and in recent
fights scored two quick knock
outs. Tonight Jimmy is matched
for six rounds against Filberto
Osario and will be aiming at
another quick knockout against
a man who recently extended
Smith to 10 rounds.
Another up and coming pre-
liminary boy booked is Light
heavyweight Tommy (Eldridge)
Thompson. former National AAU
champion from Quantico who is
undefeated in his short pro
career He's billed for four
