Lets Jackie Clark Win Heat to
Keep ALI Out OF
Final.
LAWSON LOSES TO FOGLER

The two champions, RANK hNi"
mer and Donald MacDougall. and ALT
/ Goullet, Joe Fogler and Willie Han
ley. of California, starred at the
opening night meet of the season
held at the Velodrome last evening.
Kramer won the professional cham
pionship race at a half-mile, Goullet
took the five-mile open. Fogler cap
tured his match with liver Lawson
in handy fashion and MacDougall
and Hanley won brackets in the open
events for amateurs In the handi-
cap. which Champion MacDougall
won, he equaled the worlds record
Of Sc rs seconds.
BY winning the championship, in
which Goullet was shut out of the
final, Kramer now has a clear lead
of seven points In the battle for the
American title. Jackie Clark was
given second place, which places him
even with Goullet with three points.
Kramer, Goullet Clark, Grenda, Fred
Hill, Fogler, Floyd Krebs and Alvin
Loftes qualified in the heats of the
championship, and in the drawing for
the two semi-finals fate placed Kra-
mer. Goullet, Clark and Fogler to-
gether in the first heat. In the run
ming of this semi-final the strategy
of Kramer was never more evident
He even went SO far as to let Clark
win to put Goullet out of the rum
ming.
In the second semi-flnal Grenda
had very easy time with Hill,
Krebs and Loftes. The giant romped
home with Hill trailing. The final
heat demonstrated very plainly just
what Kramer could have done to
Clark in the semi-final had he so
elected. Clark again rode from the
front, and when Kramer set sail for
home he simply breezed by 1.-THE
Rocket" and he carried Hill with him
and also Grenda, who was following
Hill.
In the flve-mile open, Goullet got
hunk with Kramer for his defeat in
the championship. Goullet won this
race and he won it by yards with
Kramer third. Goullet rode practi-
cally the same kind of race that
Kramer did in the championship.
With Joe Fogler for a mate, Gren-
da won his third straight tandem
race. The Tasmanian is evidently a
great tandem rider for he wins re-
CARELESS of the changes in partners.
The tandem event furnished a great
finish, the winners came from far in
the rear and winning by several
lengths Elmer Collins, who ac-
counted for the invitation at two
miles. shared second place in the
tandem race with Fred Hill.
That liver Lawson is far from his
best form was evident in the match
with Fogler. The swede's effort
was feeble at best and Fogler, with
a kindness of heart that was as sur
prising as it was pleasing, did not
show the eX-champion up. Fogler
won in straight heats.
MacDougall rode a great race in
the handicap. which he won, and
eaualed the record. His ride in the
three-mlle open was a disappoint-
ment. Hanley, the Frisco boy, rode
a surprising race and STAYED off the
efforts of the title-holder to
come around on the last lap. Al
Krushel, a likely looking youngster
from Buffalo. rode a game, agrees
sive race and finished second, Mac
Dougall having to content himself
with third. The summary:
