NEW YORK, Dec. 13.-The pace of
the last hour up to o'clock showed in
the score for that hour, for the riders
had ridden 1,22S miles and laps.
The record is 1,299 miles. At the pre-
vious hour the men were IS miles be-
hind the record. Fogler made a fake
sprint at :20 O'Clock, but the fans got
no run for their money, because the
bikers settled down to a steady grind
in a jiffy.
Freddy Hill, after his good
rest, following Eddie Roots
leaving the race, enlivened things
shortly after noon and started
the riders at faster clip in an effort
to get beyond the record once more
At -12 o'clock they were seventeen miles
and two laps in back of the record,
having ridden 1913 miles and one lap.
At 1890 they passed the 1,200-mle mark
by eighteen laps. The Hill and John
Bedell team is now in the race one
lap behind the leading teams, putting
them even with the Thomas-Stein
Wiley-Galvin ombinations.
Champion Frank Kramer is in fine
condition and should surely last out
the week.
The six-day riders are still behind
the record. AT 10 o'clock they were
seven miles and one lap in the rear. AT
that hour they had travelled .157 miles
and 2 laps, against the old record,
made by Rutt and Stol in 1909, of 1,165
and lap
1t was announced that John Bedelt
and Freddie Hill would officially enter

LORIMER PROBE END
IS NEAR AT HAND

WASHINGTON. Dec. 13.--Prospect
for an early termination of the Lorimer
election investigation developed sud
denly today. Judge Nancy, counsel
for Senator Lorimer, said he expected
to put Lorimer on the stand as the last
witness before the first of next week.
Lawyers for the investigating commit
tee announced that they had only one
or two more witnesses to call.
This sudden move to end the investi-
cation came as a surprise to those who
have been expecting that Senator Lori
ner's counsel would use every effort to
prolong the hearings. at least until
after the spring primaries in Illinois.
