Racing Boards Plan of Classifying
CycIsrs.
The Racing Board of the League of
American Wheelmen has considered the
classification question and adopted these
rules, which will be submitted to the
League at it's session next spring.
Class Am amateur who has not en-
gagged in, nor assisted in. nor taught cy-
cling or any other recognized athletic
exercises for money or other renumera-
ton, nor knowingly competed with or
against a professional for a prize of any
description, or one VINO having forfeited
the amateur status, has had the same
restored by q competent authority having
jurisdiction over the sport.
Class Ban amateur of this class shall
be a cycle rider. who may compete in
public for pay or remuneration for riding,
but shall not compete for a cash or u
dividable prize. nor realize upon any
prize won by him.
The prominent racing men of today are
enjoying the privileges which will be ac-
corded to them in Glass B. The only line
which will separate them from direct
professionalism will be the restriction
that they cannot race for cash prizes.
Chairman Raymond of the Racing Board
informed a reporter yesterday that the
board will suggest the adoption of the
two classes as the only feasible method of
settling the veXed amateur question.
