Mars Cassidy the starter won't let him, which is a very good reason. Joe has been sct down several times for a Period of ten days by the barrier off- @lal for being overzealous at the post. Nowadays, overzealous jockeys,| While popular with the racegoing * public, are a rarity, but from the way| ‘we figure it out good old Mars does Not like these overzealous riders. He} bas a mistaken idea, evidently, that| they try to “show him up.” Within a short space of time, Byrne has incurred penalties twice for try- ing to get his mounts away from the post in front, and a third time! he was deprived of a chance to ride for ten subsequent days, for NOT tting away. In the latter instance © Was just carrying out instructions of the owner and trainer of the horse he was riding. He was told to take his time, lay off the pace and cor ‘on in the stretch. He did as he was “told, but Cassidy put him on the ground for not breaking with the others. ‘ Cassidy may be right and then again he may be wrong in the case of Byrne, but he seems a bit inconsist- ent. By keeping a boy of Joe's ability on the ground he is doing the racing public an injustice and depriving the boy of a chance to make a living at the only calling for which he is fitted. At will be remembered that James Butler engaged Byrne to ride his horses during the recent Empire mect- ing, at a fancy retainer. Joe got lit tle chance to fullfil his contract be- cause the starter saw fit to punish him by a suspension just before the Yonkers meeting began, Joe got up in time to ride Spur in the Empire City Handicap, and he won Mr. But- Jer’s only victory there by a master- ful ride. He might have brought home the cherry and white In other races but for Mr, Cassidy's severity with him. A GOOD jockey is put on a horse to win nowadays, It therefore ts his duty to use all the strategy and skill at his command to begin right. That fs to say, by getting away from the post. Nine times out of ten races are Jost by the failure of their riders to be on the alert ut the barrier, Alert- ness is Byrne's middle name, but it seems to be an undesirable quality when Cassidy is starting. Some racegoers think that Mr. Cas- idy 1s sore on Byrne and maliciously fo. We don't. Furthermore we don't think the starter is sore on anybody. He simply hates to be outguessed and ft looks as if Byrne's only offense has been outguessing him. In base ball a pitcher who can outguess a home run hitter is worth his weight in gold. The same condition should hold on the race track. We think Btarter Cassidy, honest ond conscien- tious as he is, should realize this and give Byrne a fair chance. Take him aside, Mars, baw! him out and jay down the law to him, but don't d him of the chance of making @ living. It sounds like the restraint of trade to do 80, and there ts a law against that in ‘this country, £ feel sorry for Billy Miske, the St. Paul fighter. He recently ducked out of a meeting with Jack Dempsey for the Red Cross War Fund by saying that Dempsey would knock him out in a round and he didn't feel Uke going into the ring with him with the belief (hat he would be put to sleep. It sounded like cowardice at te time and Miske was, of course, eriticised, Billy is in town again and ‘this time broken in spirit. The report that be was afraid Dempsey would knock him out hag reached every cor- ner of the country and as w result is earning capacity has been seri- ously impaired. Billy doesn't deny anything, but he justifies his refusal to meet Dempsey on the occasion in question by saying he was more eligi- ble for a hospital cot than he was for ment with the new heavyweight sensation. Ho insists he | was physically down and out, had fought five or six times in a couple of weeks before that and had a nose that needed surgical attention. But for thix, he and his manager, Jack | Reddy, say he would have welcomed @n opportunity to meet Dempsey, ISKE is in great shape now, ac- show at Ebbets Field. * Yesterday Benny Leonard called up the com- mittee of sporting writers who are conducting the show, and asked it he was supposed to box or fight to- night, “No exhibition stuff goes over there,” said Bill Rafter, Chairman, “all the bouts will be the real thing, otherwise the boys will be disquali- fled.” “Fine!” shouted Benny, “T hate to appear in a sparring bout when the public expects me to try my best to nockout my man. Tell Mr. Pierce he'd better be careful of his chin.” Every bout should be a hair-raiser, They've got a wonderful and, as it will be topped b; six-roun bout between Batting Le nskky ani r mpsey, you may wel ens What the teat of the [ist will, bee like Wid Jack Britton and Ted Kid Lewis will ‘Nae meet again, This is the eighteenth time and every one of them has been aye f fight.
