SUCCESSFUL JOCKEY ARRIVES IN SPOKANE ' (By Associated Press) SPOk'AVR Wsh.. Jan. 28. Al fred Johnson, who has been cne of the leading jockeys on eastern and southern race tracks for several years, has arrived in Spokane after what he regards as a strenuous but his most successful season, and will spend the remainder of the winter at his home here. Johnson achieved national fame when he piloted Morvich to victory in the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs, near Louisville. Ky., . last May, and won the $50,000 Purse for the turf classic. His final triumph of the season was whm he won both divisions of the Pinilico Futur ity at Baltimore, Md., November 4, and carried away the $80,000 purse offered for the event. Johnson won more than 20 stakes during six months of racing last vear for. a total of $290,000. This is said to bo more than double, the winnings of any other jockey on American tracks last year. John son is only 22 years old. He races under contract to Willis Sharpe Kil mer of New York, receiving $100 a month and 10 percent of his win nings.. His percentage for last year is ijstimated at between $20,000 and S:i0.000. Ihe little jockey plans on spend ing the next month on the family farm near here and in hiking over the surrounding country to keep himself in shape nnd to rest his nerves. He expects to lenve here sometime in February for Hot Springs, Ark., ifor a month of train ing to reduce to his racing weight of 112 pounds. Hist first race of the. 1023 season will orobablv be about the middle of April, when the season opens in I Maryland. Ho is looking forward to, this year's Kentucky. Derby, which will be run about May 15, for Sally's Alley, considered the best of the Kil- men stables, nas oeen ciuereo. Oregon S. A. R.
