team. AS regards pairing up WIFI
Kramer. Clark said:
| II have never considered such a
proposition. and l doubt if the man
agement would stand for the cham
pion and myself as a team. With
Kramer as a partner I feel sure that
we could win" but he intimated that
he didn't think Kramer was the
greatest six-day rider in the world
by any means. In that respect,
Jackie has a high regard for him
self. and he should have, for he has
shown great strength, gameness and
speed in the various long grinds in
which he has taken part. 1t is said
of Clark that he gets tired only when
there isn't anything to do, and that
seems to be about the size of 1t.
mcfarland. who will have consid-
cradle to do with the New York
race. said he wouldn't stand for Kra-
mer and Clark as team. In fact,
Mac" doesn't want the champion
to ride in the New York race at all
The way Mcfarland feels about
Kramer he ought to devote the re-
mainder of his cycling days to sprint
ing. and he is also very much OPP
posed to him even going to Europe
for a series of sprint matches.
g
Kramer is still a great rider, but
from now on" declared Mac yes
| terday. What Frank wants is a
good. long winters rest. No six
day races no European trip. Just a
| few months up in East Orange, and
the old champion will come out as
good as new again next spring. But
| let him go in for a gruelling winter
of racing and he'll find out he is only
human and will not be able to MAIN
tain his speed next summer. Frank
needs rest. He can't stand the pace
the same as Clark and Goullet, who
have wonderful endurance. Really,
| Clark and Goullet are better after
a hard race than before, while Big
Steve as We all know now. is all in
after a hard ride"

The Same Bike Fanness'' is such
good bike fan that she won't allow
any of the boys to be picked on. Her
letter taking the part of Bob Spears
in the long-hair controversy is given
herewith:

| Poor Bobby's pa. I wonder how he
feels toward the girls after he read
the letter of Julia johnson published
| in your columns of September IL con-
corning the fifteen cents with which
| to get Spears's hair cut. Take it from
me, ]. p. N, if I was in Bobs place
l would let my hair grow down to
my ankles rather than become bald,
as Cameron and Anderson are I will
| also include our "champer," Frank L.
| Kramer. l can hardly come to the
| conclusion that a girl wrote such
| letter, for girls in general like fellows
| with a good lot of hair. Well, Julia,
you will have to invest more than fif
| teen cents to have Bobs hair cut, for
| it will take at least a half hour, and
it costs my brother quarter to have
| his hair trimmed, so it must cost Bob
| fifty for his, instead of fifteen. I like
to see Bob push his hair back when he
| is riding. 1t shows the "baldies" that
| he can do something that it is impos-
! sible for them to do. Tell Bob for me,
J. P. N, that l hope his hair grows
until he can walk on it, Yes, ]. 2. N,
knew Hetty Green was a man.
Thanks for informing me.

1t is all just downright jealousy this
