MMARY OF ROWLING
RENO WHEELMEN VICTORIOUS
IN FIFTY MILE RELAY RACE
Greeniger, One of San Francisco's
Riders, Is Critically III From
OVerexertiOn.

RENO. June 19.-Reno defeated the
New Century Wheelmen of San Fran
cisco to-day by nearly half a mile in
one of the most exciting relay races
ever ridden in Reno. The fifty miles
was covered by Reno in two hours
three minutes and two-fifths seconds
The San Francisco man crossed the
tape about three minutes later The
race was witnessed by nearly two thou
sand people
In the third relay A. Wilkes of the
New Century fell from his wheel c.
Knox of Reno, after gaining a lead Of
nearly a quarter of a mile as the re-
suit of the accident, slowed down and
waited for his opponent, both riders fin-
ishing together. From this time until
the finish of the fortieth mile the teams
remained neck and neck, neither ap-
parently being able to get a lead on
its adversary. In the ninth relay Up
dixie of Reno started the gap which
from that time until the finish grew
wider.
One of the sad features of the days
race is the serious condition of Green
iger of the New Centurys. He is suf-
fering from overexertion and is con-
fined in a sanitarium. Three doctors
are working over him and it is hoped
his life may be saved.
