PLAN BENEVOLENT ASSOCIATION AURORA, 111., May 20.— Starter Harry Morrissey is heading a movement to start a permanent fund to defray the funeral expenses of any member of the turf who may have the misfortune to die in destitute circumstances. It is planned to form a body to be known as the Horsemens, Jockeys and Race Track Employes Benevolent Association, which will take care of the funeral arrangements and burials of any unfortunates of the turf. More particulars on the movement will be forthcoming at a later date.
