The Newark police department
holding its first annual athletic car
nival at Wiedenmayer's Park today
and the affair promises TO be a bii
success, Those in charge of the car
nival have worked hard TO bring
about results, and 1t is up TO the pub
/ lie to turn OUT IN large numbers ans
show its appreciation Of one of tbs
greatest police departments in tn,
world The local police themselve:
will take part in a number of ths
events on the program, and police
from other cities will also take part
The program OF events is a long one
and interest Is especially keen in the
outcome OF the contests in which THE
finest of this city viii take part.
o
The race tomorrow at the Velo-
drome which will create the most in
terest viii be the tandem-paced
event in which Oscar Egg, the Swiss.
and Reggie Mcnamara. the Aus
tralian, will be opponents. The dis
lance is to be fifteen miles and both
men are TO be furnished all the pace
they ask for. Egg, It is expected,
will endeavor TO run Mcnamara into
the ground. as he did George Wiley
and Jimmy Moran a week ago. The
Swiss has wonderful endurance and
1t takes lot of hard work to even
make him sweat. He has put up some
wonderful rides during his short stay
here and he is anxious TO crown his
career with a victory over McNa-
mara, who is considered a most
formidable opponent for Egg. If it
is a question of endurance, Egg will
probably win. but If Mcnamara is
not thoroughly beaten he will be
noble foeman when it comes down to
the last lap. Reggie is faster than
Egg beyond doubt. and he has
great endurance also, but whera
Oscar shines is in leaving his pace
and sprinting ahead for his pickup
men. This he seems able to do and
still maintain his strength and 1t Is
so sensational that it makes him
popular with the crowd. Mcnamara
has been practicing the same stunt
and it will be a survival of the
fittest tomorrow.
Frank Kramer will want to defeat
ALI Goullet in his match race tomor-
row more than ever since Goullet
again took the champion into camp
last night in New Haven. 1t has
come to pass that Goullet Is taking
Kramer's number regularly, and the
proud old champion cannot exist and
stand for that. In the races at New
Haven Kramer has been beaten be-
cause Goullet, being a small fellow,
ter than Kramer. That is the ex-
cuse, anyway. and 1t must be taken
as legitimate reason, for Kramer is
not in the habit of making excuses
At the velodrome Kramer will moi
have anything to offer as an excuse II
he is beaten. He knows the track as
well as the next one. and he knows
how to ride IT, too. He is well
versed in all it's angles and knows
when to jump and where to jump,
The same advantages are possessed
by Goullet, so the odds are even as
regards conditions, and it will now
be really up to speed and to brains.
O.
Kramer has always showed himself
to be q most resourceful fellow, and
he has generally produced the goods
whenever the call has been heard
He was there last Sunday with a new
stunt, and he surely put 1t all over
Goullet. This has rather nettled
"Goullie," who had lot of speed
and he was also bit sore on "Steve'
for giving him a close ride down the
backstretch. AS there was only ons
heat, Goullet had no chance to gel
back, but he declared up and dowr
to Mory Gordon, his trainer, that HI
would run Kramer off the track i
ever the angle came up. That /.
only talk, of course, for Goullet Il
the cleanest rider on the track. Cor
don has been coaching him how t.
switch and how to take up all thu
track when in front, but Goullet
simply rides his race the best he car
and the fairest he can. That Krame
rode him close there isn't much doubt
but that Goullet was beaten at tn
time he will admit himself That
however, doesn't cut any ice. TIL
men should be compelled to ride fai
and square, and they should be fine'
heavily for glazing offense.
O.
! Goullet believes he can defea
Kramer. and he will go right at hin
tomorrow. His victory at New Have
last night will give him more courage
and he will make "Old steve" ride a
he has never ridden before IL he hope
to win. Goullet claims he rode
boob race last Sunday and that h
should have been sprinting for all h
was worth at the eighth pole. In
stead, he was stalling. and Krame
