tie with the crowd. Walthour was
overjoyed last night when he cap

J. p. Fenner and A Meyerheim are

Battalion games in South Brooklyn
Saturday night.
James E. ("Ted') Meredith. of the
University of Pennsylvania, will have
an opportunity to get back at Homer
Baker in a special 500 yard match
race tonight. Meredith has been
awaiting the opportunity to get back
at Baker for a recent defeat. The
two runners look to be the class OF
the program, although there might
be a dark horse in the person of r t
Edwards, of the New York Athletic
Club.
Among ether Olympic heroes to per-
form are Plat and Ben Adams, of

to be sure spill by going up the
bank. 1t was while the riders were
trying to avoid Lawson and Halstead
that Wohlrab went away after Nor
man Hansen, who was about to be
Tapped. Hansen was a good pace
maker for Wohlrab and before the
field of riders knew what was up the
Jersey City boy had gained almost
half a lap. On the Twenty-seventh
street stretch Martin Ryan made one
of the greatest pick-ups seen at the
track. He tore away at break-neck
speed and after going for lap and a
half had caught the field. The Garden
fairly shook from the applause which
greeted Ryan as he drew up on even
terms with the leaders. During the
sprints the teams of Cavanagh and
Piercey and Kopslsy and Hansen had
been Tapped, the former five times
and the latter once.

New York Six-Day Race.
When Wohlrab and Ryan gained a
lap on the second division this morn
ing, which put them up even with the
leaders, they justified the confidence
1 had in these boys when I signed
them for the race. I was pleased to
see them successful, for they are
game and had tried all day to get an
angle that would result in a success
full bid. With short jumps at fire.
quent intervals all day yesterday,
Ryan pestered the leaders until some
of them were about ready to let
him get his lap back, but there were
a few who would not stand for it,
and they went after him every time
ne Jumped. 1t was little Mitten who
gave them their chance, and Wohl-
rab was quick to take advantage OF
: the opportunity. Gus jumped after
Afitten, and most of the riders
thought they would slow down after
Mitten had been caught by Wohlrab,
but Gus fooled them by going on.
Ryan rode well after relieving Wohl-
rab, and they got their lap in handy
fashion.
Lawson Shows Speed.

speed last night, ana ne - CNluShbts

fast and he is strong, and with such
a steady partner as Drobach they
are almost sure to be going strong
for the rest of the week, and will be

should be particularly good in the
final sprints. and If Drobach can
