Bobby WaIthour and Partner One

NEW YORK, Dec 12.-Thousands of
persons were drawn to Madison Square
Garden to witness the six day bicycle
race, which began midnight Sunday,
The most interesting features of the
grind were the attempts on the part of
Bobby Walthour of Atlanta, Ga, and
his team mate, John Bedell of Long
Island. to make up the deficit of one
lap which they incurred when they
doubled up as reconstructed team.
They made frequent spurts ahead of
the bunch, but each time they failed
to make a gain. All the riders are
watching this pair very closely and
are on the constant alert lest, Wal
thour or Bedell gain the coveted lap.
Walthour came very nearly fooling
the field late last night, when he gain
ed almost lap after a desperate
sprint, but unfortunately there was a
spillI and, although he was not in 1t,
under the rules he was not allowed
the advantage he had gained.
At noon today all the teams had
made 1,09S miles except Walthour aud
Bedell. who were one lap behind.
