satisfied to get anything, but in fin
ishing second, he displayed a class
and a cleverness that make him a
most formidable contender at all
times. 1t has been said that Verri
was not worth his salt in oren races.
that we will look to him for some
sensational performances in the flu

and Verri would not be amiss at all.
In their contest at the Velodrome,
Clark won, but the italian was not
given a fair show by any means.
Jackie may be able to beat Verri,

Freeman. the famous cartoonist and
the ne plus ultra publicity agent of
the Velodrome, is a move that de-
serves high commentator. Mr.. New
man. is. working for a big man who
doesn't tarry around little things. He
plays the game high and for all 1t is
worth, apparently, and his play TO
secure Freeman. If successful, would
be his most effective yet. Poke knows
everything and he knows how to do
everything, and in all my experience
/ have never seen a publicity man
who could get away with so much
stuff and then have the sporting edi-
tor asking for more. Freeman, for
the Motordrome, would be a high
card. George Stallings, when with
Newark. used to say that Tommy
Martin, his secretary, was the best
man on the ball club. This goes
double for Freeman as an employee
at the Velodrome.

From what hear, the Motordrome
owners have me to thank for their
good fortune in securing the SER
vices of Pacemaker Turville and race
follower Collins. An item IN the
Star called attention to the fact that
Turville might be in receptive mood
to ioin the OUTLAWS" and immediate
ly the Motordrome owners took up
the tip and eventually secured both
Turyille and Collins. You're welcome,
Manager Newman, and also to the tip
on Freeman.
