BICYCLE RECORDS MUST GO down.
So Say the Speedy Young Men Of the
Rambler Team.
They Will Commence Their Record
Breaking Attempts in This
City To-Day.

If several of the worlds bicycle records
are not lowered over the Agricultural
Park course in this city this week. many
good judges OF speed are at fault. The
attack on the records will begin to-day.
Otto Ziegler, Jr., will go against the
unpaced one-mile flying start record OF
3:07 l-5, made by w. Z. Sanger ut Spring
field, Mass, on September 28. 1891.
Ziegler once held the milo unpaced rec
ord and is anxious &c again claim 1t as
his. This is very difficult task, as he
is TO be unaided in his attempt, other rec
ords being made with makers. lie
feels confident, however, that the record
will surely GO.

and half-nlile standing start records. He
will be paced throughout by tandem
; teams, consisting OF Long and Delmas.
! hall and Edwards and Usen and Smith.
Mr.. Wells has already broken the half
mile record i'll trials while training tho
past week, but they were not official.
Any records made This afternoon will Ec
official, as they arc TO be held under sane
ton OF the League OF American " heel
men.
! Tho present half-mile record for fly
| ing start is 81 30 seconds, and is held by
! j. z. Bliss of Chicago. The hali-,nile
standing start record is 3o l-5 seconds, also
| beld by Bliss.
The Sacramento favorite, l.. s. Upson,
| known as the "Capital City 'SkeeLer, J"
Will also attempt TO lower the Class y
| worlds record of the unpaced mile,
/ which now stands at 2:l1. Mr.. Upson,
/ who represents the :. y. G. ". of this
I fI - t.lSf Class \ ln.S
/ should succeed, rs he has confidence in
/ lis ability, which amounts TO y great deal
! III these attempts.
Quite an aggregation of speedy riders
may be seen training every morning ut
$3.50, and III the afternoons at $3.50 o'clock.
| The celebrated Rambler team, consisting
of Ziegler, Wells, Edwards, Long, Del
mas, Hall, 0sen and Smith are among
them. also Urson, 1amlin, Albagaria,
! O'Ncil anu McCrea of this city.
There is a vast difference between an
unpaced and Il paced mile, and as many
do not understand why this is so, u little
| explanation is i'll order. An unpaced
mile Is made without any assistance, and
no other rider is allowed on the track
while the trial is being made. A paced
milo is made with pacemakers, they
| being either tanden or single wheels,
riding i'll front of the party going for Il
record, and serve as break against the
wind or tor gauging the speed of the
rider.
John S. Johnson Of Minneapolis, holder
OF the present flying start paced world 5
record, has made several attempts at the
mile unpaced record and failed, showing
that there is Il difference OF at least seven
teen seconds between these two records.
Thomas II. B. Narney, Pacific Coast
agent for the Rambler bicycles, is in
town looking after his team.
The time of the mile made by Ziegler
(unpncedj OH Monday, with flying start
was published yesterday rs 2:07 %. The
latter is the worlds record, and Ziegler'
time was 2:ll. Upson's mile in 2;GS was
with pacemaker.

COMING EVENTS ON THE GRIDIRON.
The New Boom in Football Rapidly
Developing.
Sacramento IIas Been Attacked by the
Fever, and Will Have Her
Local Team.

Now that the football teams of the two
menced in earnest to train for the annual
contest next month, and secured the cele-
brated coachers, Gill and Camp of Yale,
interest i'll the great sport has begun to
revive at q rapid rate, and the fever has
struck Sacramento.
1t is quite probable that two of the
VARSITY" elevens will be seen here be-
fore the game i'll San Francisco on
thanksgiving Day, and it is definitely
settled that Stanford University will be
represented in this city on November
10th.
Manager Herbert s. Hicks of the latter
team has signilied his willingness to bring
the players to Sacramento oH the date
moptioned, and the many here who are
Interested in the sport are eager to see a
team organized that will he able to cope
with any of the VARSITY" elevens.
This evening there will be meeting at
Smiths Hall, on Seventh street, and those
interested III organizing, or seeing organ-
lied, Il football eleven to represent Sacra-
mento, are requested to be present Quito
a number have siguitied their Willingness
To attend, and IL is thought there will be
an enthusiastic gathering.
1t is proposed 10 organize team COM
posed of the best players and athletes in
the city, and it is likely that in the eleven
the High School and Athletic Club will
be we'll represented. There is a general
desire to have Charles bentley captain
the Sacramento team this year on account
OF his thorough knowledge of the game,
and tile fact that he had had experience
on the Berkeley eleyens in past years. LII
he can be induced to accept the football
crauks ieel certain that a club will be
organized which will be lin ip' in any
| game.
Among those mentioned as being de-
sirable are Harney of Gait; Birdsall, Ely,
| Hall and Bauer OF the High School;
! Powers of st. Mary's College; Merkley
! and many others. 1t is certain that two
! good teams will have to be organized, SO
4 that the proper practice may be indulIed

will be thoroughly renovated i'll fe W
days. The field will also be put in per-
