y. \. zimmerman WAS in town yesterday, but
no de;init ncran -ements have been made for
the mattel with liOuben. md his friends are con-
WINGED that q match between the two riders VIII
never tako place. Zimmerman is regarded as q
faster man than Houbcn. and the reluctance OF
Houbcn's friends to cover the $4,000 put up by.
NJ. Baudal. Zimmermans baclier. is regarded
as cnnv incinE proof tnat the foreigners
friends have some scruplcs about CHANGING
that amount of money on n rider who has never
done So much work as Zimmerman. The latter
range n match for less than $4,000. and rs the
situation now stands there seems little chance
of either Zimmerman or johnson arranging q
match with HoCbon this season. Zimmerman
has planned to leave for France in May. and will
go from there to Australia, where lie will COM
pete in AL the big meets.
