the Race.
BY D. W. L.

III W ~ L.
ITO signify his intention of addir~
another year to his ten years of
championship honors, Frank L.
Kramer. of East Orange. national
champion for ten years, scored a clean
cut victory over his nearest rival,
Jackie Clarke, in the final of the cham
pionship race yesterday afternoon at
the Nelodrome.
The 1900 fans who were present
showed their appreciation OF the cham
pion's efforts of the last two racing
days by applauding him literally when
he appeared IN the track. and WHOM lie
won the final from Clarke. Joe fogler
and ALI. Goullet. In this race the
changes in position were so rapid and
varying that 1t was difficult to follow
them. They started off in the follow
ing order: Fogler on the pole, then
Kramer, Clarke and Goullet in the
order named. After j%ockeylng around
for a lap or so Fogler went to the front
with Clarke on his wheel, Kramer and
Goulette following, Frank keeping high
so that he was in a position to see all
the other riders.
AT two laps to go Fogler started to
unwind. when Goullet from last posi-
ton jumped and went around Frank.
past Jackie and Fogler. and seemed to
be leaving the other riders behind.
Then Frank made his bid. As he rode
high outside Goullet, Fogler and Clarke
rode low on the inside. Here they were
going so fast that they lost Goullet,
and then it was a real race to the tape.
At this point Clarke seemed to make
a tactical error. Instead of trying to
go around Fogler so that he could
have raced Kramer for first, he waited
too long, with the result h a when
the Champ reached Fogler his rear
wheel was tapping Clarke's and the
little Australian was unable to go as
he could had he been in a better posi-
ton.
It was when Frank passed Fogler.

the last lap, that Jackie showed that
he deserves the name of Rocket.
When it seemed a forgone conclusion
that third was the best he could get

seldom did before. At the half Frank

margin; in the turn he had come up to

after he was past the bunch he could
have won sitting up. .
A puncture put Fem out of the race
in the semi-tinal and there are some
who think that Willie would have been
somewhere if not for that.
MacFarland was an important factor
in the race, riding in the semi-tinal,
and it was probably his desire to get
the champs goat more than any
thing else that prevented him from
competing in the finals.
In this heat there were kramer, Hill,
Mac and Goullet. They started with
Goullet first, with the champ on his
wheel. Mac rode alongside the
