JACKIE CLARKE
EXPECTS TO WIN
FIVE MILE MATCH
Thinks Longer Race Will Land
Him Victor Over
Kramer.

TACKLE CLARKE. the rocket of the
cycling game, thinks he will beat
y Frank Kramer tomorrow at the
Velodrome in their fve-mile human
pace match race. best two out of three
heats.
The fans are evenly divided on the
outcome.
Many of the wiseacres think that
because the race is being ridden in
the American style and with pace
makers, the little chap from the the
other side of the big pond will be able
to slip one across on the East Orange
marvel. On the other hand. the adj
mirers of the East Orange rider can
not figure out how it Is possible for
the champion to lose. Both men are
confident of victory and are in great
shape for a gruelling ace. Each rider
will have two men to furnish him pace,
exchanging every half-mile. The race
will be ridden in one heat.
The one-mile handicap will bring to-
gether Eddie Root and Paddy O'Sulli-
van Hehir. Handicapped Kelsey has
been very liberal in giving out the
allowances In this race.
The Australian pursuit race with five
men to qualify for the fina should fur
nish good sport. ALI Gounet. the Au-
stralian Pursuit King" Is the favorite
in the race. There Is also q three-mile
invitation on the card for the money
grabbers.
The amateurs will ride in two events.
The five-mile national championship,
which Is the final Of the season, will
be the feature. The rae will be rid
den in one heat. Frank Blatz, the Jer-
sey City boy, has a good chance of
winning the title and so has Jerome
Steinert. At the present time Blatz
has a four-point lead ove the Long
Island rider. The men will also ride in
q one-third-mile handicap. The races
will start at 8 o'clock sharp.

In the case of Forest Hill 1t was differ
ent. They had but n game to play
with each team when they withdrew,
and were leading the league. I claim,
as we all had an equal chance. the
Newark team has won the title on It's
merits. If Mr.. Gray wishes the cham

When Forest Hill withdrew the New

of five games, while South Irvington
had been defeated by Forest Hill either
four or five games; hence his reason
for wishing the games thrown out.

because Of his solemn garb, has been
mistaken for a man Of the cloth.
Ascending the platform, he says:
ssMen are much like cigars. Often
you cannot tell by the wrapper what
the filler is. Sometimes a. good old
stogy is more popular than an inn
ported celebrity. Some men are all
right In the showcase on display, but
are great disappointments when you
get them home. No matter how fine
man is, eventually he meets his
match. A two-fer often puts on as
many airs as a fifty-center. Some men
never get to the front at all except
during campaigns. Some are very
fancy outside and are selected for
presents. Others have a rough ex-
terior. but spread cheer and comfort
about them because Of what is inside.
But all men, as~all cigars, good or
bad, two-fers, stogies or rich or poor,
