ever saw and | don't believe there Is
better man in the world at this
! game
| COLLINS-"Bobb and | surprised
them yesterday, and | think Bobby
| will spring another surprise in the
| final sprint, IL there is a final sprint
IL we get another break we will try
| for another lap. ] was bad for
while early in the race. but have come
back and should have no more
trouble. | wish some one would throw
Brocco in the ocean and leave him
there. He is going to make lot of
trouble before long While / am pull
ing for Bobby to win for the team
and believe we will, Goullet is very
| fast and it will take bear to beat
him.
Verri-"We'II BE There"
VERRI-"The race is between
Goullet, Perchicot and myself, and
think | will win. Brocco is a fine
| partner. Grenda and Clark will not
get their lap. The race has been
very hard but Brocco has saved me
much. He is a wonderful rider
| BROCCO-"We will be even on
Saturday and | hope Verri can win
the sprint. We are both in good
condition. No, Grenda and Clark
will not get their lap back. Grenda
can't use his speed on the little track.
I think the finish will be Verri. first:
Goullet, second; Perchicot, third, and
Root, fourth"
"GouIIet Best. Carmen.
CARMEN--"Keefe and Kopsky are
the only ones in the race who can go
out and lap the field and do 1t alone,
The Walthour- Collins, Appellants
Packebusch and Cory Walker teams
gained laps yesterday for the reason
that the leaders fear Grenda and
Clark and were afraid to go after
them Goullet will win the race with
Verri second and Root third"
CAMERON-'T never saw 80 many
teams that are so nearly equal. Car
men and l should be up with the
leaders. My partner has ridden a
great race since he has recovered
from his fall. The race is the hard
est | have ever ridden, yet [ have
gone through so far in good shape.
Goullet is the fastest man in the race
and should win. Root is good, just
as he always is, and should run sec
ond Goullet will have to have an
even break to win. He is faster than
Clark and Clark is a wonder, so you
can see how high | rate 'Goullie.' He
can hold the track at high speed bet

advantage"
HilI-"We Have Chance"
HILLr"I have a good partner and
we would like to win, but Goullet
will whip around any of them in the
finish. He is riding great Root
should get second, although | am
figuring on no worse than second or
third. | think 1t is impossible for
any of the leading teams or Grenda
and Clark to gain lap. 1t has been
very hard race and If the finish
was run now we would not run better
than fifth But we both expect to be
in better shape before the finish.
The foreigners are not to be over
looked-they are all good and may do
more than we expect in the finish"
RYAN-"We have chance. never
rode a better race and Hill is one of
the best six-day riders. If he can
finish as strong as he did in the
Boston race he will get a big chunk
of that dough- on Saturday night.
"Where Do They Get That."
ROOT-"They are all picking Goul-
let and Fogler, but I think we will
win. Goullet is the man who will
have to be beaten in the final sprint.
Clark and Grenda will never get up.
Their only chance is to catch the
rest asleep. If any riders say this
race is easy they are crazy. | have
ridden enough of them to know and
this is the hardest race ] was ever
in"
McNAMARA-"This has been a jol-
ly hard race and nothing like the
races [ rode in Australia. They were
play compared to this one. But it is not
nearly as hard as thought it would
be. heard a lot about the race be-
ing so terribly hard, but they Will
have to make ii much harder before
they will get me. The jams have
not been half as hard as I expected.
But ] expect the hard ones to come.
Il think we can gain q lap and when
we get real good opening ] am GO
ing. Clark and Grenda will never
get their lap. I will go dead to hold
them where they are. I think We
will win"
though Luck"-Mitten.
MITTEN-'1t was tough luck for us
to lose a lap ard ! don't think we
were Tapped. But we are Dot crying
over spilled milk We will so on
and make the best Of it and we
might make q little trouble for some
of those bears We are just await
ing a chance. If the fast pace is con-
tinued much longer some of those
teams in the first division are liable
to crack, which will give us chance
to get up and figure In the prize
money. Goullet looks to be the best
man in the race and will probably
win. The foreigners have surprised
me-they are a fine lot of riders.
Brocco was not surprise for he is
always good"
THOMAS-"It looks like Goullet and
q (tnlIllaf ia U0nn.
but he will have to have an even
break to win. VeIri, Perchicot and
Root will take a lot of beating Our
only hope of finishing in the money
is by having some of the others drop
out. If the pace is kept up this may
happen"
s'Enough Electromagnetic.
KOPSKY--I said after the Boston
race that | would never be satisfied
until / had ridden a New York six
day race. Well, / am satisfied now.
The Jams" in this race are not as
hard as in the Boston race, but that
everlasting pace is awful. Brocco and
Verri should win. i think Clark and
Grenda have got very good chance
to get up with the leaders, and If they
do Clark will win the bike race.
KEEFE--I don't care who wins the
bike race All | am interested in is
the arrival of Saturday night. We are
staying in the race to get our bonus
money, and that is all. If we had not
set the pace that broke the record we
might not be so far behind now.
"Brocco Best of Lot"
DROBACH-This race Is harder
than any I ever rode. Root ought to
win the race, with Goullet second.
Verri is not as good as l thought he
would be. The foreigners are very
good, and Brocco is the best of the
bunch.
HALsTEAD-of all the six-day
