Citation Adds $38,000 Purse

Year's Earnings Total $427,020 CHICAGO, July 8 (UP)—Little Eddie Arcaro, who pushed mighty Citation from far behind to win the Arlington Park Stars and Stripes $50,000 added handicap, said today he had “never been on a horse to compare with him.” Citation's win yesterday boosted him into fourth place in turfdom’s all-time money winners. The victory paid Calumet Farms an even $38,000 and raised Citation’s 1948 winnings to $427,020. Assault held the previous oneyear record with $424,185 in 1946. Citation’s all-time earnings jumped to $582,700. This placed him fourth behind Stymie, Armed and Assault, ; Equals Track Record Although the big horse equaii-d record for a mile and an e , Arcaro said “he was a bit short on work or he could have run it in 1:48 and four.” Arcaro has piloted Citation in all but one of his races this year. As was expected, Citation and his Fervent,

The Calumet entry opened at 3 to 5 and when the record crowd of 46,490 had finished betting, Citation and Fervent were 1 to 5.

It was the largest crowd in Arlington's history, and the fans poured $242,337 into the mutuels on the feature race. The total mutuel handle was $2,110,103.

{of talent in the fight game, partic Some say the 20th Century

The retirement of Joe Louis and the apparent lack of a worthwhile successor ‘to the heavyweight shrone this week evoked several proposals for scouts. For example, Dr. Clilan B, Powell, Negro member of the New York Boxing Commission, suggested that Louis become a scout. :

Baseball Well Organized Scouting works effectively in baseball, for the diamond pastime is a well-organized sport. Professional boxing is a loosely knit enterprise, despite the existence of the National Boxing Association and the New York Commission. A big difference between boxing ard baseball is that major league baseball clubs control or have working agreements with minor league clubs; whereas each boxing club is a separate entity that has practically no connections with any other club. Exceptions to this are rare. When a boxing promoter in any American city develops a promising youngster into a good drawing card, it's to the best interests

Moreover, the local promoter usually can offer the youngster more money for main events that he would receive while demonstrating his wares in New York preliminaries. Educational Cam It is my belief that an educational campaign for boxers and managers would be of more benefit than a scouting system in stimulating the rise of young boxers. Let the 20th Century Club or its razor sponsor prepare a booklet of facts that could be sent to every pug and pilot in the coun-

The booklet should explain: (1) What riches a main-event fighter receives for campaigning at Madison Square Garden and in the New York ball parks, (2) exactly what a youngster will get for fighting in preliminaries, (3) How long he must expect to remain in the prelims, (4) That neither he nor his manager has to “know” someone in the 20th Century Club ner to “pay” somebody to get New York fights, and (5)That he can develop much more rapidly in a city where sparmates can be obfained, than otherwise,
