a mutual friend brought the two to-
gether. The little cyclist lost his heart
to the heiress at sight.
1t was like winning a quarter-mile
dash capturing the heart of the maiden,
but the man who vas destined to be-
come the father-in-law of Jackie was
not so easily won. In fact, he put up
a great battle to prevent the cycle star
from entering h house of Bray.
Jackie finally won out, however, al
though he should have been disquali-
fled for team work, because he was
pulled clear into the home stretch by
sweetheart Rena and Mrs. Bray. Going
1t alone and with a combination of
three working against him was too
much for the old gentleman, and he
sat up half way down the home
stretch.
Mr.. Bray was a good loser, however,
and for a wedding present he gave the
young couple a big touring car and a
beautiful home that is one of the show
places of Salt Lake. When Jackie re-
tires from the track he will go into
business in Salt Lake. probably with
his father-in-law.
There is no set time for Jackie's re-
tirement, and as papa Bray is ambitious
to see his son-in-law the champion of
the world there is little chance of his
retiring until after the worlds cham
