PROPOSED MOTORCYCLE
CLUB STIRS INTEREST
Many Inquiries Received by Those
Actively Engaged in Pushing
the Organization.

The prospect of motorcycle club
in this city has aroused a great deal
o. interest since it was announced
last week that one would be organized
after the first OF the year. Dozens of
inquiries have been received by those
most actively engaged in pushing the
organization, and number of enthu-
siasts have requested that they be
allowed to post their initiation fee and
dues for the first year at once.
The new boulevard along Lake
Cooper is proposed as an ideal
stretch for holding road races, while
there are a number of hills in this
vicinity which would make admirable
locations for hill climbing contests.
With motorcycle club organized,
under the F. A. NJ. official contests
could be staged by the club which
would prove of much interest to the
people of this vicinity and at the
same time would be a big boost for
Keokuk. Records made In these CON
tests would stand as official and the
best riders in the country could be
induced to compete.
