Hartford, Conn., July 3.—Rain stop- ped the races in the Bay State Short Ship circuit at Sage park, Windsor, today, after three heats had been raced. May Bird won the heat in the 2.16 pace.

Tearing a leaf from the experiences of the British and French soldlers on the battlefront of Europe, the United States will adopt a regular_schedule of sport for the men on the firing line and in the training camps. In fact, the American army is makinz prepar- ations to inmstruct and entertaln the khaki clad heroes in their off hours, and nothing has proved more benefi- cial than wholesale and strenuous sport. Boxing will form the principal ex- ercise and one of the greatest expon- ‘ents of the game will have charse of the work, of coaching the men. In Canada every soldier is required to put on the gloves each day and in- dulge in a certain number of rounds of sparring. This is considered quite important, as boxing is an important part of the bayonet drill. Military au- thorities have found that boxers make the best bayonet flghters and that the movements of a boxer are exactly the movements_of a ,man fighting with a Dbayonet. It has’ been asserted that the success of the English and French in this sort of fighting in the trench- es has been due to boxing, the great Anglo-Se=con sport. When war was declared many ath- letes in the United States rushing to the colors, but the boxers were in the minority. Many said they were ready to join the big fight but this never passed the conversation stage. Wil- lard offered his services until they were accepted and then forgot all about it. The other champions, with the exception of one, dodged all argu- ments and remained in the back- ground. Johnny _ Kilbane, weight _champlon, holder who really has done some- thing besides talk. He quietly offer- ed his services to his country and they have been accepted. He will have charge of the boxing work in the camps and will devote his timeé to traveling from place to place, teach- ing the men the manly art of self de- fense. Kilbane is anxious to do something really worth while. He has read of the boxing carnivals behind the bat- tle lines and thought it would be a good thing to try it here. He did not give a second thought t his Income of $30,000 to $50,000 a year. He was will- ing to give this up in order to help in the mobilization of the armv. He made a special trip to Washington to see Secretary of War Baker, but the secretary was in a cabinet meeting. He then wrote a letter offering his feather- is the only title the services and vesterday received the following repl: “I am delighted to receive vour letter of May 31, although it rfust seem to vou that it takes me a long time to answer. The fact is that 1 have been very busy and have not had the opportunity to WiR EXERCISE read my letters, which have been ac- cumulating for some time. “I am extremely anxious to have the training camps filled with athletic ac- tivities of one kind or another, and 1 think it would be a splendid thing for you to give some of your time to teaching boxing in the various camps. I have, therefore, asked Mr. Frederick, who is chairman of the commission in charge of training-camp recreations, to take the matter up with po and to arrange for such opportunities as he can find with a view of your rendering this service. “I think it is a fine thing for you to do, and I will be very glad in- Ideed to find another_Clevelander at work on the job. _ With cordial re- gards, believe me, sincerely_yours. “NEWTON D. BAKER. “Secretary of War." Kilbane says he will report as soon as ordered, and if his work iIn the camps interferes with his boxing dates he will give up the latter. . The little champion has proved that he is a true American citizen, ready to do ris “bit” and sacrifice everything else. How many other champions can say the sam?e Benny Leonard's apparent reluctance to sign up for a bout evidently had something to do with Johnny's latest move. The featherweight champ was anxious to meet the new title holder and make the weight at 185 pounds, ringside, but Gibson and his man re- fused to even consider ft.
