NEW YORK, Dec. 29.-Floyd
Mcfarland, the greatest bicycle
rider in the history of the sport,
was married in the Little Church
around the Corner, the Monday
following the big six4day race in
the Madison Square garden, and
the fact just leaked out, a girl
chum of his wife letting the cat
out of the bag. Mildred jolly of
Norfolk, Va, is the bride of the
elongated pedaller.
=. In marrying Miss Jolly, Nc
Farland broke all previous records
as far as marital affairs of cyclists
are concerned, as it was only dur
ing the long six-day grind that he
met her.
Miss jolly was spectator at the
race of the opening night, Sunday
December 4, and it was then that
she saw Mcfarland for the first
time and admired his riding sc
much that she became infatuated
with him.
Somehow he became aware OF
her presence in one of the arena

jured member was quickly placed
behind its owners back, as
though it feared once more to be

make of it a huge automatic en-
