Un- Tike other tracks, the racing there has tts own pecuilar clientele. They Wome to Yonkers from Hastings, aroneck, ‘Tuckahoe, White ‘Plains, Mount Vernon and Billy Gib- gon's. To these patrons the racetrack is en @ jollification, a party, a reunion, “and that is what Mr, Butler wants ail Face meetings to be. Here is hop- ing that he does not disappoint his rat i if _ Joe Welling is in the navy, but his or, Jack Bulger, probably with umerable dependents, is on the outside looking in, Manager Jack Fean't understand the discussion bo- mm Johnny Dundee and Willie 3 on. He thinks Welling can beat “the pair of them. He does not ace any why either of the aforemen- ed “patriots” should have any de- ma on Kenny Leonar ‘s champlon- ‘phip laurels. Bulger he. an idea that Plausibie. He wants Welling to Jackson or Dundes, both of them im fact, during the sport carnival week, if for no other reason than to J Mhow who is most entitled to a chance Pat Benny Leonard. Bulger thin! in view of the fact that the proceeds are to fo to one of our great war funds, that a twenty-round bout would be the real ‘thing. He is of the opinion that Well Ing will beat Dundee, and would in 4uurn show Willie Jackson that he ws a spperiistic accident.

It seems very ‘edd indeed that Jimmy should come ‘all the way from the Western coast to superintend an affair of this kind, | We have Billy Gibson, Jimmy John- ‘gton, Charlie Harvy, Harry Pollock mand by far the best of the bunch, Dan Morgan. Any one of them could pest over the best possible kind of a xing show without the assistance of smiling Jim Coffroth, ‘The camp activities branch of the | War Department, however, has de- F) gided Coffroth is the right man in ) the right place. Certainly no one else jm has more influence where the bix Mghters are concerned and certainly “no one else is actuated by more pa- © triotic ideals. It looks as if the joyful fask of helping Jim out will be-im- sposed upon us. We are with him, PRANK FRISCH keep Fordham University on the football map this season. This young- ster ‘was the sensation of last year's "| football team. Running through | broken ficids was his specialty, Hard- iy @ game was played on the Ford- gridiron without some kind of a ®epsational run by Frisch being re- @orded. He did not make a run in any one game. He did it in every game in which he was a halfback, Fight or left as the exigencies d fmanded. Young Frisch put his hand ut of commission in winning Ford- victories and the war boards Wwe turned him down accordingly. the front line trenches he would been a wonder, but Governmental authorities long since decided that P athey did not need any four-fingered in the service, So it happens Week of Racing in Metro- last legs. ‘There is only one week more , left of this sport, and the fintsh soming off at James Butler's _THE EVENING WORLD, MONDAY, OCTOBER 21, 1918. 4...1| BEST SPORTING PAGE IN NEW YORK | COLD THE WEATHER 1S HES GOT TO ANO'NO "COAL IN THE CLUB in destined tol}, Famous Chase Be Baseba IN |THE WEEK END BlG BILL LANGE 1S GOING TQ FRANGE FOR Y.
