MAGIN AFTER LAWRENCE;
KRAMER AGAINST FOGLER
Rivalry Between These Men, Are the Features on
VelOdr0me Card for TomclroW--Good
Program Of Other Events.

It's a question whether Frank
Kramer's new plan Of campaign
against Joe Fogler n Eddie Root Is
not causing as much interest in the
Velodrome cycle meet for tomorrow
afternoon as the match race between
Percy Lawrence and Jake Magin, the
crack amateurs. One sure thing
Kramer's declaration has come as a
b~ombshell-to the followers of the sport
and it Is. another sure thing hat the
match between Lawrence and Magin
has the fans by the ears.
This amateur match is about the big
gest affair among the youngsters since
the days when Marcus Hurley and
Eddie Root fought ii but for the anna
teur title. The fans remember how
Root made a sudden appearances down
in Boston and the sensation that fol-
lowed. Hurley was the star. and, of
course, the favorite. He had been
cleaning up about everything in sight
at the old vallsburg track and Man
haitian Beach. One day he went down
to Boston for a championship race.
Root was then unknown outside OF the
Hub. He didn't stay in seclusion long.
The championship meet was rum. and
Root beat Hurley. He followed 1t up
with a triumph In a handicap, which
was next. Then he came on to New
York, and that season was the greatest
the game ever had. In the
fall Root turned professional to ride
in the Madison Square six-day race.
Hurley won the championship, but
there were many who thought Root the
better man.
Here Magin has been a favorite for
seasons. He held his own with

the cracks last year. With the open
ing of the present season Lawrence,
who was without a strong rival in the
West, came on to Newark. He won
one race at the opening meet. and SO
race a meet since then and so has
sprint for sprint, but Magin has out
generated him often and led him to
the tape frequently. The race tomor-
row will provide ample opportunity for
both speed and headwork, and it is an
open question as to who will win. That
there is sure to be a record crowd TO
see the race Is assured. as each has a
host of friends, and then the fans in
general want to see the question of
supremacy between the boys settled.
Others will troop TO the track to wit

Friday and on returning, it is
thought that the horses became
frightened and he was thrown in
some manner so as to strike his
head and became unconscious. The
team ran until the wagon wheel
got caught on a fence stake and
then stopped. A neighbor boy
went over to Mr.. Holth's place the
next morning and failing to find
anyone about the premises started
out to look about. On going
some distance he found the team
still standing there and Mr.. Holth
lay dead in the wagon box. Act.

Home grown seed potatoes are
the best.
