more than the equal OF six or eiTat
leading American players. Last summer
from the minute he worked on his sea
legs here Hilton was practically at the
top OF his game and It was seen that
his chances of winning were aim )st
sure. especially after he took low score
medal In the qualifying round. Travers'
Herreshofr and Evans were simply
counted upon to hold him down to a
rather low showing.
Travers had been practically ont OF
the competitions for months. while
Evans, as usual. was suffering badly
when II came to putting. II therefore
deyolved upon Iierreshoff, who was
medalllst in the 1910 national at Boston,
to give the lloyGate man the race or
his life In the finaL After being down
Herreshoff squared the match and was
beaten only on the thlrtN-seventh by a
fuke. when lIllton's ball struck a big
rock and got a hound, but for which he
would not have had a lie whore he could

factor, 1t was Infinitely better that the

Kramer, lnvincib|e Eleven Years,
Still Wonder of Sport World

Frank, having been one Of the young.
sters who used to crawl under the
fence OF the Velodrome to see the pre-.
vailing hero. Floyd Mcfarland, per.
form. had been inocuiated with the
speed germ. The FIRST thing young
Kramer did. therefore. was to sec
how much speed he could get out OF
bicycle. He didn't get much. Even
after getting into the amateur racing
game he proved an exception to the
rule that fast cyclists show speed al.
most from the moment they learn TO
ride at all. Kramer became an In.
veterate novice. stlrting twelve times
before graduating from that class.
HIS hrst win was on the half-mile
horse track at Hillside Park. n. J.
HASN'T LOST ANNUAL TITLE
SINCE 1901.
Shortly after that the youngster began
TO develop speed. In 1898 he Showed
class as an amateur and he cam. along
so fast that the following year he won
the amateur championship OF America.

POINTS
ABOUT
AND HIS
CAREER:

~AvE in a few widely separated
centres. where hard-working
~ promoters have managed TO re-
store the game to some degree OF Its
former popularity. the once royal
sport Of bike racing is but memory;
yet there Is ono man identified with
Il whose name is familiar to the
sport-loving public of the entire coun-
try. Frank Kramer. one OF the most
striking figures in any sport. and
Justly dubbed 1.-The perennial cham
pion," is to the casual follower OF
the game the alpha and omega OF
bike racing.
This IL not strange For q dozen
years American promoters have tried IN
vain to find some one who could take his
msasure. Thousands Of dollars nave
BEEN spent In the futile quest. and IN
top of It all Kramer smilingly declares
no will be Just as speedy ten years from
now Is any time during the eleven
years ne has held the national cham
: pionship.
Curiously enough. Kramer has never
held the championship OF the world. al
though most followers Of the sport are
convinced that he is the master of iny
man in the world at one mile. ills
wheel has shown the way to more than
one holder OF the title, and one cham
MON at least. Eilegaard, admitted that
the only reason he wore the crown was
the fact that Kramer WAS not around
when the championships OF the Inter
rational Cycling Association were belng
held, In 1905 Kramer raced In Eu-
rope. He defeated every European rider
ne met. Including the great Ellesaard,

RACED KRAMER.
As has been noted, tho promoters
quest OF Kramer's master has been
year out. This year It was Emil Friol,
worlds champion In 1907 and 1910,
who was imported for the purpose of
proving Kramer was not the speed
king OF the cycling world. Friol dis
played wonderful form upon his ar
rival. badly beating all the riders sent
against him as preliminary to the
Kramer race. The fans laughed them
selves into Mysteries. At last tho
mighty Kramer was to meet his
match. Kramer won In straight beats.
This II the reason for the general
belief that next week Kramer will be-
come actual champion of the world,
the first American to hold the title
since Major Taylor. He will have
more than Friol to beat. however, for
there are entered also all the Eu-
ropean and Australian champions and
.hirty-six OF the speediest American
professionals. Kramer smiles. trains
diligently and says nothing.
