FROM ROBERT N. WEIGH
HE UPHOLDS THE CNCLOMERE
PARK REFEREES.


Very soon after the controversy
among the amateurs took place at the
close of the Cyclomere meet, a bicycle
enthusiast at once sent a letter to
Robert NJ. Welch, referee and chair
man of the California Track Racing
Committee, stating the full particu
lars of the case, as well as enclosing
copy of the rules governing Cyclic
mere track. \ full statement was al
so given in the same letter, relative to
the dispute that arose between Ref
cree Ed Towse and Cyclist Harry Ter
rll over time limit race.
BY the Moana. Chairman Welch
sends his reply. He says that in both
instances the rulings of the referees
were within their powers. In regard
to the King-Damon dispute, Mr.
| Welch says:
"The rider who failed to observe the
referees instructions as to pace. but
| hung on to the bunch and had it pull
him through. was very properly dis
qualified. The time limit, howevc,
is Anticipated, and never employ it
now. It has given rise to more squab-
/ bling on the track than any other rule
| of which | know"
! Speaking of. the Terril case Mr.
/ Welch says:
"If the race was well ridden and
| the referee believed the men tried to
reach the limit he was justified in ac-
cepting the result. The man who had
ridden i'm the first trial and failed to
ride i'm the second had nothing Of
which to complain. The second trial
