 The management of the Madison Square Garden bicycle races have de- cided to reconstruct the track in order s to prevent "a recurrence of the mix ups which rlarred tlIe McFarland- N e1son4| race, Monday Iii h # f <, ' They were as- sured that the. track would hold any speed, but that contest proved that the extra width of the track nullifief the advantages of the increased banking. The new track, which will be ready for next Mondays meet, will be banked seven feet higher, making it's total height twenty feet. This will give it an angle of forty-five degrees on the turns and make it safe to negotiate a 1:30 clip. Besides a big paced affair next Monday night, there will be a half-mile open and mile handicap for the professionals and a fve-mile lap race for the amateurs, with special prize for the leaders at each mile. Tn the professional events Cooper, Kra1 mer. Freeman, Downing, Collett and. others of equal calibre have entered.
