of 5000 persons.
The man from Buffalo proved that as
a consistent performer at the ten events
which constitute the competition he is
invincible among the present generation
OF track and field experts. His total
score OF 6.2tra2 points is only about 100
points behind the record made by Harry
Gill in 1900. and more than 500 points
better than the score of Gum himself
when he won the event at the Stadium
last year.
Edward Strong Merrill. a student Of
Beloit College, but who represented the
Milwaukee \. c., was second, with

to score a single point in the sixteen

Thlrty-one machines started at s
o'clock last Friday morning from Bos-
ton. Eighteen reached Hartford for the
overnight stop. At 10 o'clock tonight
thirteen had reported al the place of fin
ish. 10 West Sixtieth Street in this city.
This was the first endurance contest
for motor cycles held in this country,
and, so far as is known. hte first in the
world. There was no prohibition against
making up time by going twenty miles
an hour, but out of respect to the law
the club arranged its schedule on a basis
OF fifteen miles an hour average. Most
OF the contestants admit that at times
they rode at the rate Of thirty miles AN
hour.
