Is now a resident of Salt Lake City,
where he has married and built his
home, and his mission in the East is to
sign up the best crack riders he can
get hold Of and bring them West.
From what he said it is possible that
the game of cycles will be revived at
the Vailsburg track, for Iver admitted
that he had signed up with Prince to
ride here, but, as there is nothing do
ing at present. he said he was a free
lance n was going to stick to the
Mormon country.
He intimated hat he was after
Kramer, but was informed that Kramer
had signed up to ride at Vailsburg.
which tends to the opinion that the
Nailsburg people do intend running this
season again. At any rate, Lawson
said that Kramer has a contract signed
with the Vailsburg people, and this
means something. He says that the
game Is good in his country, and he is
going pack there again.
