DALLAS. Tex“ April 16.—-“Spav-

Frank Baboon oz Dallas. is the
champion racing cockroach of Tax-
as.
That's what Robson says. and
what he ”ya, he is willing to back
with any mount up to $10. 000. Nor
will Robson bar any other state. re~
public. empire. kingdom or smiet it
they have a cockroach they want to
back against szuln Robson declar-
ea he will back Spavin against all
comers and-will be ready for rac-
ing as soon as spring opens.
Righ now Spavin is spending home
pleasant hours in a Warm but “ell
ventilgted box,at the. Hobson home.
He is being taken care 01 and feel
what racing cockroaches should have
during of! season. .
Spawn Cleans up $8,000
In 1924 Robson cleaned up 88,000
on Spafln'a races with other cock-
roaches in Texas. In 1925 he has
races scheduled with the beat cock-
roaches at Houston. Galveston. 0r-
ange. Pt. Arthur, San Antonio. Ft:
“'oth and Beaumont. He expects
to match other races during the ear-
ly spring to be run 015 in the sum-
mer.
"It's Just & mczter of training,
your cockroach." says. Hubson.
"Some cocci-caches balk on the:
track while others run half a length
and turn back. Still others waste
their time running from one side off
the track to the other. «But Spavin;
gets on the track and tears {or the.
other end. He next-z stops until he
gets there. Spavin has made-108
feet in 10 seconds flat and I be-
lieve he can make it in 9 1‘: sec-
ends."
Cockroacb racing in .Texas is one
of the fine arr-ts. Occasionally there
are a. half dozen entries in a sweep-
stake the winner taking the pot.
These pots run as high as 51.200.
The last race Spavlnv-ran was at
Galveston Where there were six e11-
tries. Sparta won by six feet. a
Beaumont cockroach being second.
Races Run in Large Halls
In Texas the cockroach tracks are
laid 011‘ according to the number of
cockroaches in the race. The races
arc always run in a large ball and
the length ‘or the tracks is from 158
to lilolteet.
”Ibo boundaries of each track are
marked with water. The dry space
between the water lines are three
inches Wide and are placed by a
sponge or anything which will leave
the. water on the wark.
“‘lth the water marks Laid the he
ing cockroaches are placed on their
tracks and turned loose at the same
time. The “inner is the cockroach
which rea Clics the other end of the
track first.
Cockioanhes will not crass. the
water marks. But some racers have
not been so well trained that they
know what they are doing. They
zigzag here and there trying to
break out of the course.
Spawn knows his cheese. Hobson
says. And hence be has not lost a
race since» he began racing two yours
ago. \\'l1cn Sp'ivin wasu'oung Hob-
son trained lxim in the race game
