from an old broken down bicycle
rider he became-in his mind at least
"a seeker of the championship. And
SO James Francis settled down to real
hard work and assiduous training. 1t
brought results, for last night at Bos-
ton Moran scored victory over Law
renee, Malone and Cory So today
Jimmy is back in Newark, with a
chip on his shoulder, and out full tilt
after those who proclaimed him a
has been. and said he was best ION
the fat
O.
Trouble is Moran's greatest pleas
ure. He was looking for it this morn
ing and he was looking for Manager
MacF'arland to give it to him. AS
Mac" and Jimmy have met about
forty times in oratorical combat and
as James Francis has yet to score a
victory, it is almost safe to call the
outcome, though not knowing the
actual result. With two victories I'M
der his belt, Moran is to be listened
to. He says he is as good as the next
pace-follower and he wants all the
favors that are to be doled out He
wants Charley Stein as a pacemaker
and he wants to pick his company
when he starts. Moran is surely talk
ing some big talk and the meeting
with Mcfarland would be worth the
while to take in.

Alfred Grenh is riding well these
days and seems to be faster than
ever. He rode an excellent race at
the Velodrome last Sunday when he
won the twenty mile event,
and he defeated Cesar Moretti at
Boston last Saturday night in two
straight heats. Again in Boston last
night Grenda won a four-cornered
match, his victims being Champion
Kramer, Walter Rutt and GoulIet-
some field. Kramer has an. alibi for
his defeat. He won the first heat,
punctured in the second heat, and
rode a strange bicycle in the third
heat Nevertheless, Grenda displayed
great speed and rode a beautiful race
He is one of 49, best contenders in
the game. He races a whole lot. SAYS
little and wins his share of the prize
money.
| Joe Fogler says that Jackie CLARK
had a ton of speed at Brighton satur.
day night, and that when turned loose
Jackie went by him and to the from
like THE Rocket" of old. Goullet
was on Clark,s wheel in the f1na
sprint. but ALI couldn't come out ant
give Jackie battle.
! o
Fogler, by the way, has quit thu
Transfers Union and is going to b.
very much on his own from now on
Down at Brighton Beach Saturday
night some of his work looked sus
picious, but he told me he wasn't il
with soul. 1t so happened that h.
gave Clark a free pull in the handi
cap, and he was the pacemakeTs IL
the open, which was won by Kramer
with Goullet second and Rutt third
These exhibitions, of course, appeared
to SAVIOR of teaming, but in his race,
from now on at the Velodrome he Il
not going to leave room for the leas
suspicion. Out in the circuit man,
good thing comes off, but when tn,
boys come back to the big Show
they will find that Referee Ross viii
make them behave.

The referee has changed his tactic
entirely He has been an easy fel
low right along and q knows 1t, blu
, he finally woke up to the fact that tn
riders were just about running owe
him. He was kind to them and they
in turn, took advantage of his friend
ship. Now, though. the ties have bee
} broken-Ross has told them all wha
to expect. and he will be backed u
! strong by Manager MacFarland. TIL
