With a view to regulating the contracts
entered into with expert riders by manu-
facturers the Racing Committee have re-
ported a proposed contract. Two of the
leading makers of bicycles have also
submitted their form of contract. 1t is
proposed to have a regular course of
filing for record that the present and
past of riders may be learned, not neces-
sarily disclosing the cash terms and
private matters, and also that the League
of American Wheelmen be notified of who
are by contract the riders of various
firms, and also what these riders are at
liberty to do. The committee will be glad
to receive suggestions on this contract
question from makers interested in the
subject.
Harry Morse and Harry Lockwood, of
the H. C. W.. will run to Hartford on
Friday.
The membership of the Hudson County
Wheelmen Is now one hundred and

decreased vitality, but to pre-

This way is SCOTS Emulsion
