Alfred Goullet may be a great
Splinter and all that, but Joe Fogler
doesn't want any more of his game as
teammate on a tandem. Down in
Philadelphia one night last week
Goullet and Fogler were paired in a
tandem race that looked pretty soft
| for them. Fogler thought so, any
way, and he counted first prize. bar
ring accidents. as being won. When
the race was on, however, the tan
dem didn't seem to move with the
expected speed and Fogler finally dis
covered that Goullet wasn't doing any
pedaling. Third was the best that
Joe and Alfred got, and Immediately
Fogler canned Goullet as a tandem
partner and since then has wished
him on Kramer. Goullet doesn't want
to ride in tandem races, and it is said
that he purposely back-pedaled in
order to sicken Fogler of the task.
Joe. however, needs the money, and
he has picked up Alvin Loftes as
mate.
@
day, at the Velodrome, Fogler and
Loftes are pretty nifty tandem team.
The manner in which they won the
race brought forth high praise and
loud applause and it is doubtful if
more spectacular or more SEN
sational contest has ever been wit
messed on any of the old Vailsburg
tracks. Until the last lap Fogler and
Loftes appeared to be out of it, but
they came like a streak at the end
and won flying light. In talking about
himself and Loftes as tamden team,
Fogler said there wasn't a pair at
the Velodrome who could beat them
He would give Goullet, tho load" to

for Kramer on a tamden is not a
very likely proposition. He still re-

took the header, and it is doubtful

to persuade him to get up and ride.
Meanwhile Fogler and Loftes are
claiming the tamden championship
and are ready to defend it against
all corners, Goullet and mate pre-
ferred.

Clarence Carmen is riding we'll in
Europe. On July 13, in Germany, he
won a heat race behind the motors at
twenty kilometers distance. Carmen
has only a few more races in which to
ride before his contract ends. Then
he will come back to this country.

Alex Mclean holds the key to the
cycling situation in Boston, as far as
a six-day race is concerned. So far
he hasn't Joined the outlaws" and it
may be that Mclean will, as usual,
conduct the Boston grind in conjunc-
ton with Messrs. Million and Chap
man.
Charley Turville should make good
at the Motordrome, despite the feel
ing he has caused by his invasion,
His liberality with the riders alone
will get him by. He was always a
stickler for big prize money and big
bonus money, and now that he is in
a position it is presumed he will fol-
low out his hobby.

From casual observation, 1t is evil
dent that the appointment of Mr.
Turville as manager of the Motor
drome doesn't meet with the approval
of some of the most ardent boosters of
the "outlaw" track. The GOODNESS
that has developed in certain quar-
ters Is evident and the Motordrome
may lose it's drag entirely. The APP
pointment OF Turville is said to have
been a hard blow to the boosters and
