I'AKIS, July 22. The most Jmport. unt piirt of the horso lacinK program In Krunco In now u thing of the past, hut ihe race for most Jockeys the UlKKcst of ull for the top of the win liiug IIhI is still keenly conlcHted. At the prevent time Flunk O'Neill, of St. Louis, heudH the list, with fifty win. iilng mounts out of tt possible 3U0. He ill closely followed by Mutt .MucOcc, another American. Then come ling Huh imil French Jockey. The former ulways figure hlfe-h up In the lint ut the, end of cafc-h year, while the French nu n usually niuke up the tail. TIiIh year, however, the roles may bo chunged, for seveinl proiiiisiiiK yuuiiK French boyH have come to the limelight In flat racing-. Undoubtedly the lCHt of the group I" little Jean Le pinlo. foul teen years old. lie stands barely four feet 11 Ik Ii and Utile under sirtty pounds. Jeun. an must people on the tracks c all him, wan born at Malsons Ijiffitte. near I'uiis, one of the big- centers of horse nichm und training In France. His father was a brick luyer uniTwuiMiut u' Hon for' horses und racing very early. Ho wus barely seven yeurs old when lie could be sin out on the training tracks carefully watching the prepur. atlon of turscs for big events. He would follow horses on the ttay iiome from the tracks, and out of pity f,,r Ills smull legs stable boys often gave him a lift on one of the horses. Noth ing pleased the boy so much, und one day he decided that he would try his hand ut training horses for races and bid boldly for a chuuee to ride them in races. IVrsevei-aiii! Wins. Wlieii ten yeurs old Jeun told his futh'cr und mother that the time had come for Ii 1 ill to quit school and go out In the world und work for his living. Kecelvlng his parents' consent, Lepintu one morning on the way buck from tne tracks waylaid (Jeorge Iiwrence. one of the oldest lirltish trainers in this country. Point blank Jean asked fully he undertook the tusk, and lie had his reward a few days later, when ho was put up on a horse for lessons, lie learned iiis Job very rapidly, and very soon afterward he was seen out in tile trials. A little later I-uwreiice had reason to be d.ssatlsfied with the two Jockeys uttached to the stable and told ih. ni that he Would find someone else lo ride lis next running horse. Law rence, us a good trainer, watched ihe work of his staff, as well as that of the horses, and paid particular atten tion lo young l.epinte. He decided that the hoy should have tho ride on his next horse to run in a race. I.e plnle simply Jumped for Joy at the prospect and could not believe h s ear when Lawrence told him that if he made good he would fix liim up Willi a, contract, making him the stable jockey. W Ins Ills First I but. Given his chance. Lcpinte proved his value, for his first, ride was hih first winner, and throughout the race he showed u lot of good judgment. Ijuwrcnce for a Job und said he could soon leui n to ride horses as the other I never allow ing himself to get loo much boys did. Ijiwrence at first smiled, but In view of the boy's Insistence told him to coiile round to the stable next morning. Jle wus an early arrival ut the sta ble, but created something of a sensa- weighs a lion when he revealed himself in knickerbockers and wearlnir socks and low shoes. He Interestedly watched the horses being prcpured for their trials und, pending' the arrival of Trainer. Lawrence, , wandered round the stable questioning other boys us to nil Interested In ' horse racing. Hislwhlch horse he was to ride. He only young son, however, showed his uffee- received coarse laughs In reply and he- mixed up in a big group and always making for Ihe rail on entering the home stretch. His first appearance caused a sensation, however, owin;r to his height un weight. Whereas most jockeys wear cli se-fltting tunics, Le- i piule's was so b;g that It practically smothered him. Ho heavy was his saddle in order to make up the weight that he could .not carry il. and there were many people who dur ing the race shouted Ihenmelvcs hoarse believing a Jockey had fallen off. A a matter of fmct Lcpinte appeared so small on the horse thai Ihere wen ! plied: "Wait, anil you'll see this hoy j make good." Lep nte has clone this, I for toilay he Is eagerly sought by own ers and trainers alike to ride their : ligliliy-weiglued horses. At the be-' ginning of the year, because he had not I got the public's favor, J-jan steered' very long-priced horses by the win ning post. It was frequent to see his ; 'mounts return odds of 2."i and to 1 ( against. Now, however, he carries quite a sum of belting money, anil rarely do his mounts pay out as much as Id to 1, simply because he has bei.n ', considered a boy of value, und the jockeys at the top of Hie w inning list i now and again luke a look back to see where Lcpinte figures in the list. He j has ridden twenty-six winners this year out of a possible l.'-r, and has one; of the best averages. He now has a contract with Law-' re nee which brings the boy some li-V i Mill Irani e a year, inclusive -if his per. rentage on winning rides. A year age Lcpinte took to riding horses over jumps for their trials, und today he j is one of liwrence's princpa.rcul!ubo- ; ralors Irj. that specially, for he schools ; most of the stables beginners over hurdles and stone walls.

The three-plane navy the navy on the sea, below the surface and in the air is goliiif to he the navy of the future. This is the very decided iniptessioii that remains aft'-r th.- fir.-t of the atr ial bombing tots which th" Navy ij conducting off the Virginia Capes. Official reports on the bombim; will not he compl'-ted for some time et. These reports must la- dis-.-sted by the Xavy (leneral Hoard. When the Gen eral Hoard has taken the reports under careful advisement and has consider! d , theni in connection with reports of other tests and developments oth'-r nations ree-'iumoitilatioTis will be nn-le for Ihe future naval policy of the I'n it ed States. Despite the fact that no official in dication has yet been siven ns In the thoughts running through the minds of the nienitiei-s of the (lener;)! F'oard It is a very safe prediction that the three-plane Navy is coin:,' to lp the Navy of the futare. This prediction is based on the comment of tin- offic is of the fleet, the men who are at sen and the men who will do the fis-'htine If war comes. Their theories are the theories which no to make up the re- t ports upon wrrch are based the final i conclusions of the Genera! Hoard. ', The Navy is not convin e-l that the battleship is obsolete. The Navy still holds that th- battleship is the hack hone of the nation's defense, hat at the same t-ine the Navy is not williusr t-i depend upon the battleship alone, nor cpon surface craft atone. The Navv wants Mb battleships, fast cruisers and speedy destroyers, but it wants more. The Xavy wants submarines, irreat. Powerful. lonir-cruisiniT summaries. The Xavy privately admits that the -aibtnarine was not defeated in the re cent world joust. It respects the pub- ' marine as an enemy anil wants sub- . marines for defensive and offensive ( perations. Furthermore, the Xavc n-ums n lai'Be air force. When General .Miteh ell UUideJite-JStotrini-nt that. the. hat-' 'leship was useless auainst the aero- , ':lane the N:ivy pooh-pooh'd. General: Mitchell is still boihtf pooh-poohed in t'c fleet. Hut while the Navy ridicules Mitchell and smiles at his statements the Navy is insist'nir upon a lame air force, for it is convinced that air lurces are pr-in to lie a potent factor ! in future naval warfare. No one in the Navy believes that i'av:il battles can ; lie fought in the air alone, bet neither docs anyone believe that surface craft , can put up a !oo,i fiht nvenst an enemy, strontr in the air. without a : tronir supporting a-rial force. The Xavy wants to construct its j plans for tho future aloni; the three plane idea. The Navy wants t" lie ' prepared for warfare under the i e. on ' the sea and above the sea.
