Racing In Salt Lake.

That Salt Lake Is the center OF BIZ
cycle racing In the West can hardly
be- disputed by any reasonable person
who Is well informed on the subject
At the beginning Of the season, the
outlook was anything but bright The
attendance at the meets was poor. then
the Butte track opened and most OF
the crack riders gave Salt Lake the 10
by, and II was predicted By many that
the saucer here would be closed By the
middle Of July, But II did not take the
people long TO learn that the races were
better this year than ever before.
The management Of the track found
out what the people wanted and made
every effort 20 supply II. Last year
about half of the motor races were
failures, The machines were out Of
gear half the time and the crowds
went home dlsgusted.
This year It Is different. In motor
races there has only been one failure.
New features have been introduced
and the attendance has steadily in
creased. The fast riders have re-
turned. or some of them have, num-
Der of records have been broken and
racing men all over the country are
turning their eyes towards Salt Lake.
Heretofore IT has been an easy mat
ter 10 pick the winner OF a race but
not 80 nov, There has hardly been a
meet this year that the spectators have
not been surprised The action of the
N. C. a. in abolishing team work Is
mainly responsibility for this, and the
new races put on by Manager Rishel
has also had great deal TO do with II.
Lap races are something new 10 Salt
Takers and they are becoming very
popular. The people like TO see the men
