AMONG THE WHEELMEN
Frank Fuller Has Returned From the
East-Entries for the Meet at
Dixon.

Frank w. Fuller of the Olympic Club
Wheemen, who attended the National
Assembly of the League of American
Wheelmen in company with the Cali
fornia delegates, r. M. WEIGH and F. H.
Kerrigan, returned from the East yester-
day. He was hearty in his confirmation
of everything said by Mr.. Welch in the
interview with him published in THE
CALL last Monday week. He said that no
consideration whatever had been shown
the Calforuians or the delegates from the
other States who desired divisional option
on Sunday racing. Mr.. Fuller is very
much in favor of the establishment of q
Western league, and says California had
better hurry up or it will lose the honor of
having taken the initiative, as both H.
Iinois and Louisiana are already taking
steps in that direction.
Nothing will be done here. however, un-
til the return of Chief Consul Kerrigan.
He is expected the latter part of this
week.

morrow. The riders left Santa Rosa yes

The spirit of road-racing is among the
wheelmen, engendered no doubt by the
great Twenty-Five mile event of last Sun
day. There will be two road events next
Sunday. each at ten miles, held by the I'm
perial Cycling Club and the Olympic Club
Wheelmen over the course from FruityaIe
to Haywards.
