PAT DUNNES VIEWS ON APPRENTICES. Cincinnati. It.. May 27. — Put Dunne admittedly a close observer and a man of much coniinonscnse iii.lgmeiit expresses himself thusly upon the new rule put into effect by the Kentucky State Racing Commission limiting the apprentice allowance to the owner of a boys contract: "I think that the rule allowing five pounds tor an apprentice rider should go for all burse owners with a lilicalion of the present rule. What I think WOO Id l«- fair for everyone would be to make the eppi-.-uHcc allowance last until a jockey won twenty live .if thirty rices. As soon as he wins that number lie is 110 longer an apprcnl ice. If a boy is two or three years winning that number of races, that docs pot make anv difference, for he really is only an apprentice all the time or lie would have gotten the it quired number at one meeting."
