Career In Training Role ‘Kick Bad‘?

IONDON. Jan. 5-Steve Donog- hue, the one and on'y "Steve" to millions of British racing fans who headed the list of winning jockeys for 10 straight years and booted home six Derby winners, is well launched on a new career as l. trainer.

With 80 horses in his care, the 52-year-old rider, still smiling and spry despite the buffetinga of 80 years in the saddle, is busy pre- paring training quarters at New- bufll. Berkshire. Many owners whose colon; he wore have prom- ised their patronage.

Since he first answered the bugle call of “Boots and Saddles" at the age of 22, to bring Turkish Delight II home a winner at Phoenix Park, Dublin. the little Irishman has piloted 1,540 thoroughbreds first past the post.

Gordon Richards, successor to the Jockeys crown, has surpassed his figures of "wins" and "places," but Steve's feat of bringing 1n the winner of the Epsom Derby, premier British classic, ihrcs years 11:10. iugcession never has been dup.

Made Great finishes

When he zallooed home on Humvrlfit. a rank Dcnby outsider, in 1921, Steve was in his heyday. He had been champion jockey for seven years and had his pick 0d’ mounts. In 1922 he plagued the prophets when he finished going away on Captain Cuttle. In 1923 ha rode the year's outstanding throe-year-old. Ben Irish’; Papy- flw. to victory in the classic.

Fans agreed no one could nego- tiate the swltchback Epsom course, with its counter-clockwise direc- tion and crucial Tattenhsm Corn- er, like‘ the little Irish wizard. It was a legend that Steve rode around Taticnham Corner with (me leg over the rail.

In 1928 he journeyed to the United States with Papyrus for a. challenge race against Harry Sin- clair's Zev, champion American three-year-old. He finished five lensths behind Earl Sande on Zev. Steve offered no excuses. though many blamed the un- settling voyage and the unfamiliar clay track for Papyrus’ failure.

At that time Steve was among the most popular men in England.

~He was received everywhere and

numbered among his intimates many of the gmatest in the land.

He took the stump for Winston Churchill in a Westminster election cflmillikn and. when he suffered

Plans To Take Action To I!“ Bring Order Oat Of Chaos

(By Alan Gould, Associated Press Sports Editor)

NEW YORK, Jan. 5—Plans in bring some order out of chaos in the prize-fight business, from an international standpoint, were set forth today for the benefit oi’ New York's boxing writers by Edward C. Foster of Providence, R. I., executive secretary of the Nation- al Boxlng Association.

Foster will present a stand- ardization program io the Inter- national Boxing Conference sched- uled at Rome, Italy, beginning April 19.

Chief among the proposals on which it is hoped to obtain inter- national agreement are: (1) Ap- pointment of an international committee to decide on world champions, to eliminate present confusion; (2) Adoption of a. uni- versal "no-foul" rule; (S) Re- quirement that all title matches be at 15 rounds; (4) Adoption of a uniform system of point-scor- ing: (5) Co-operation of all coun- tries on suspensions or other dis- ciplinary measures; (6) Better control of amateur boxing to elim- inate “bootleg” promotion and semi-professionalism

Foster praised the existence oi’ harmony and closer working re- lations between the N. B. A., now representative of 37 states, and

Athletic Commission.

"We have systcmatized finht rules, as well as championship rc cognition. in this country," Fos- ter said. "It ls my hope that til. forthcoming international conic:- ence will take definite action aim ed at the same goal."

GIVE THEM A CHANCE

NEW YORK, Jan. 5_One of the few men who has walked with beggars and kings without losing that common touch gave a talk on bums and tramps today.

The speaker was Jack Dempsey, who rose from the status of a

hungry Vagabond to the role of one of the most popular figures in world sport.

At the monthly the New York boxing writers. Dempsey got up, convulsed his audience with a few comic ges- tures and. wisecracks, and then spoke his piece.

“All of us who love boxing talk and write too much about the burns there are 1n the business," said the old killer of the ring. "Well. let's give these bums a chance. When fellows come into this big town from the sticks and look bad, why knock 'em? Let's

luncheon of

give them a chance."

At a meeting of the Junior Hoc- key League held at the Y. M. C. A. yesterday afternoon and presided over by President Dr. I. J. Yeo, final selection of the Charlotte- town team to compete m this year's schcdwzle was made.

The meeting regretted having to accept the resignation and appointment of a new men- tor was held over until a further meeting.
