trainers begin looking for racing material that will measure up to the standard required for the big events next year In 1927 a in the past the bulk of the fast ones which have been tried will come from the futurities where the defeated starters have shown their ability to race within a fraction of a second of the winner Of this group those who were st Syracuse the day Guy McKinney won the Hambletonlan Stake will recall the spectacular dash which Cox made In the stretch with Guy Dean in the deciding heat As the natty going son of Guy Axworthy whizzed towards the wire it was very appai ent that he was trotting better than a two-mlnute gait But even with that brush he failed to reach Nat Ray and the other Gny Axworthy colt which landed the honors for Henry Rea Everyone will admit that Guy Dean can trot in 2:05 With that speed and his splendid racing manners he will also be the target at whlcn all of the others will shoot in 1927 when Bob Wright turns Him for the word Whether this colt will continue to be home trained or sent to one of the leading stables at Mignola as in 1919 is still stored away with other stable secrets But no matter who has him the Jennie Dean colt

them but If they come out sound next spring they will considerable racing ba ready to do By Herbert Caldwell IMMY COX local middleweight will have something to think about when he squares off with Eddie Staton of Louisville for their eight-round match tomorrow at the Stadium The thing that will probably be foremost in mind is that he will he facing an opponent who bowled over a fighter who has twice stood iip before Cox lor eight rounds Staton claims to have stopped A1 Walt her of Canton Ohio last April at Danville 111 just before Walther came here for his second fight with Cox that ended In a draw In a previous match here Walther gained the decision over Cox Billy Haack will referee the match Monday If Cox can dispel the thought that 'Staton knocked out Walther something that Cox do it is our opinion that Cox has an excellent chance to defeat the uan who defeated a man that he couldn't defeat This is my Impression after witnessing Staton in a workout yesterday afternoon with Gorilla Jones a clever and hard-punching local negro welterweight andin which Jones looked better than Staton 'However it might be mentioned that the local negro would probably look better than a majority of the fighters his weight not excepting color Jonos and Staton went three round-In which Jones uutbuxed the Douls--ville boy and had little trouble In reaching him with either hand Staton however proved that he had a right aud left wallop none too but Jievertheless that seemed to be danjforous -Jones a good puncher reached the button several times but Staton did not seem to be punch shy Summing things up it looks like Cox should not only outbox Staton but ehould outpuncn him if he is not conscious of the fact that Staton stopped Walther Boy Richards local man who managed Cox until the local boy lecentiy took over X'hil Conley as his director und who brought bXHton here for the fight did not seo htaton work yesterday A friend of Kichard'a was at xho arena with Station and explained after the woraout ttyat Staton did not claim to be a boxer but was a fighter In a lively mlxupi in the second round Jones received a cut over his left eye from a' butt Staton asked Jones if he wanted to stop after the second round They started tbe third round Staton began to dance and poke at Jones on and punch don't let my eye bother you" said Jones Staton who had worked about six rounds in the gym announced he had enough after the third round Bichards also claims that Staton Is 'of the fighting type game and aggressive and willing to Vwap licks for chance to get over one We take word for it that he knocked but Walther but Walther must have had an off night will likely be matched In Chicago soon said Abe Kabakoff was also impressed with the work of Gorilla Jones against Staton and said he would try to match Jonea in Chicago Frank "Kid" Dugan local welterweight who recently came back with a decisive victory over Norman Moran of Biloxi here after a layoff of about two years was at the arena wearing a patch over his left eye He was cut over the eye when butted by Moran last Monday It was necessary tc take four stiches In the wound Dugan stated that the physician said the wound would heal rapidly and that it would not be long before he could resume training Dugan- soems to be serious about his comeback and said he was anxious to resume training and fight again but would carry out the orders of the physician It was also recalled by Kabakoff that he was the discoverer of Dugan and put on the first pair of gloves with him DARTMOUTH LOSES DF POINT TO GODHELL

many years where now they are totally extinct There are numbers of tho old timers still bunting who can recall the days when the loftiest object of their quest was a wise old gobbler or equally sagacious ben And there are worlds of big game hunters who have killed their caribou grlxxiy and moose and he vo yet to see their first wild turkey those of them who have declare that when they found their kill they experienced a thrill surpassing anything they felt while in the presence of btg game Tho South ad Southwest hare-the honor of harboring more 'wild turkeys than elsewhere whether the topography where they are la characteristic mountain or swamp country A good deal of the presence of tho birds there Is due to conditions which provide plenty of feed end Innumerable places for concealment In tho hill country second growth timbers came quickly after the first stand was cut and fortunately In those big timbered regions the land was net of sufficient value to induce farming In a short time the timber man left and th serenity of the eemt-wildcr-uess was on re more restored to the wild creatures The extent to which this has tslmn place is elucidated by the fact that turkeys are becoming plentiful in many Places where twenty-five years ago their extinction loomed as certain Jn the swamp areas where all the timber has not yet been removed end draining operations have not Induced farming tuikeys thrive But In the very parte w-hvre the rich swamp lands are being put into tillage birds are either rapidly becoming scarce or there are non at CI1 Wherever you seek wild turkeys you are quick to discover that they are the wisest rneatnrea that ever roamed the woods Historians tell us at one time men knocked them over with clubs so plentiful end unsuspecting of man they were Try gt-tlng a choice gobbler today with a club! Ycur chances are about the equal of trying to put salt on the tall of a mountain sheep The truth of the matter le that the most successful turkey hunters are thorn possessed with a marvelous knowledge of the locality and tho habits of the game and are past masters In everything pertaining to woodcraft in their region Wild turkeys range where their feed is most abundant and a haven of safety exists nearby While they have no ability to scent danger they have a multiplicity of other faculties for detecting it Their hearing I wonderful Their powers of observing what means death to them are nothing short of marvelous yet 1 have en natives of the Osarks stalk tlxvm within killing distance right in open woods where the ainuteur unless by the merest chance would not get a shot in a year Whether you are hunting the canebrakes or other swamp areas or the mountain regions rest assured that turkeys win force you Into the hardest kind of going Imaginable for min' In tlie hills the loftiest and i-uggedest peeks are easy for them If they sen safety otherwise they can you follow them into the most precipitous guichen nature ever devised Dong ago they 'became obsessed with the Idea of' safety' for them existed In the very 1-crts most- difficult for inm to penetrate That le the sole reason that when they suspect hie nearness they hotfoot It to the inaccessible places It is hardly worth discussing the problem of calling gobblers In tlie spring because tbe majority of the states have passed laws against killing them at a period when their love-lusting makes them most susceptible to tho lures of men At that they are not easy calling for a novice But during the open season In fall no restrictions have been placed on calling when they are scattered In the morning or at other times when tho young birds particularly are responsive The number of turky calls devised 'by hunters are past enumerating Man always was a wonder at and this applies well to turkey calls that Imitate tho well-known of Madame Bronse Bird Horn are coder boxes with eliding tops One old chap makes the seductive sound by scraping the handle of a file or a rough whetstone on the rib of a gun barrel Thousands of experts sock out of the stem of a hollow cane tho siren no tea And there are many callers who nee only a leaf and their cupper hands to produce the Intoning they desire But with all at the disposal of turkey hunters mediocrity with any of the appliances seldom brings tlie birds within range 1 while expertness produces Just what is wanted Cox Looks Good who had been working with
