MACFARLAND WILL
RIDE TOMORROW
Should Be Big Aid to Clarke in
ChampiOnship-Lawson
Kramer Match.

Floyd mcfarland, the lanky Califor-
MAN cyclist, is going to get back in the
racing game tomorrow, riding with tbs
big delegation at the Velodrome meet.
1t will be his first race Ance he broke
his arm in a spill following pace nearly
three months ago. He has been train
ing hard for three weeks and feels con-
ident of holding his own with The
others.
MacFarland's presence may be a big
factor in aiding Jackie Clarke in the
~latter's quest for the American cham-
pionship. MacFarland will ride in the
one-mile national championship and if
he gets into the final he may upset
some of the calculations. As Clarke's
manager, big Mac" would do any,
thing he could to gain q victory for his
protege over Frank Kramer This con-
dition Of affairs, with liver Lawson "in."
too, makes Kramer's task all the hard
err. Kramer is prepared to make a
great fight and he says he doesn't care
how man riders are pitted against
him. If Kramer can defeat Clarke in
the titular race tomorrow it will give
him renewed confidence to max a.
grand finish in the title contests, of
which there will be two more.
The program for tomorrow is the
longest of the season. Besides the
championship there is a Kramer-Law-
son match, a f1ve-mile professional
handicap and a two-mile professional
invitation. Then there is a big ten-mile
amateur open. an amateur handicap
and a novice. All the stars will be on
hand, including Walter Bardgett, Paddy
Hehir, Ernie Pye, Joe Fogler, Eddie
Root, Norman Anderson and others.

that the promoters do not intend to bat

along more smoothly.
