ABOUT THE TRACKS.
The Los Angeles Athletic club track has
been altered 80 that Its old friends will
have some difficulty in recognizing it for
the same. The Citrus Wheslmen have
The herald., 1895-10-28

been largely responsible for the changes
that have been made and these gentlemen
nave gone tn an eXpense of about S6O0 IN
order TO make the track fast and safe for
the precious carcasses of the circuit chas-
ers. The banking on both turns has been
raised four feet, making bank six feet
high. The turns are twenty one feet vide
ana so the rise is at the rate of one loot
IN three and half. The stretches have
both been widened and are now twenty
three feet wide. The entire track is beng
surfaced with special gravel that is
found out beyond BOYLE heights, and
when it is finished and worn there Will
be no faster track in this part of the
state. The whole work has been done
under the supervision OF John kllroy,
who has been the carotaker of the park
ever since the club has been there. His
fondness for the track is such that il has
been said that he would take it to bed
with him ii he could. Barring this he
spends as much of his time as he can in
looking tenderly at the track and medi-
tatively smoking his pipe, The track
was accepted by the gentlemen having
the matter in charge on Friday evening
and was turned over to the lccal riders
for the first time on Sunday morning;
Mr.. Gates to the contrary, the remodeled
track will be as safe and fast one ms can
be found in this part of the country, and
there is no doubt but that the time in
lue ildllOHhL Iutet Wlil NC Eoob ti'"Rh ~
satisfy the most fastldIous. The commit
tee also proposes to erect a grand stand
on the far side of the track near the nm
ish, so that spectators can see the riders
crossing the tape. The lack of this op-
portunity has always been great draw
back to visitors at the Athletic park.
The Radlands track. when finished, wi IL
add another to the string OF bicycle tracks
in Southern California. At the present
rate of progress we shall have the largest
nun Der of fast, up-to-date tracks in the
country. The Redlands track will cost
about $1,000, and IS modelled closely after
the famous Fountain Ferry track at
Louisville. 1t is situated about three
blocks iron, the business center of the

Los Angeles conflicted with San Jose, and

in California the National circuit chosen
would not come at all. Los Angeles at
once took two more dates, making three

one. Los Angeles was awarded Novem-
