Shortage of Jockega.
There is likely to be a shortage of jockeys in the near future and it is hoped that the Services will produce a rider cr two. Taipans are apt to discourage their young men from riding because they imagine the moral effect of racing is bad. This may be true of the professional element but the atmosphere of local racing is clean and entirely wholesome. Early morning,
late nights and a high standard of phy- sical fitness is necessary for successful jockeys. There is practically no betting of any sort amongst local jockeys and the qualities called for in local racing are second-to no other sport.
Jockey Olub Meetings, Members of the Jockey Club are re- minded that the half yearly meeting will be held in the Jockey Club rooni to-day. at 12.30. Why such an awkard hour is chosen it is difficult to imagine. How ever, it is hoped that members will turn up in good force it only to show their appreciation of the good work done by the officials.
