nave Deeu lHdl the 1aSHianlan was
determined to ride from the front and
make sure that he was not jumped,
but what made the heat look bad was
the way Cavanagh went around and
| the distance that separated Grenda
from the leaders when the race was
| finished. Cavanagh put up a great
sprint and had Lawson and Clark
hanging on to his rear wheel for dear
, life and it may have been this great
| sprint that made Grenda appear as
| though he was not trying.
Goullet Takes Fiye-MiIe Open.
The card last night was a big one
and the crowd was the biggest night
| crowd of the season, and they were
treated to do some great racing in
the other events as well as in the
| classic. The five-mile open profess
sional was real battle, in which the
second class riders carried the fight
| to the stars and tried to gain q lap on
the field. The little fellows jumped
repeatedly and the stars had to chase
them and more than once it looked as
| though the field would be Tapped.
Pye and Walker were the first to
steal away and they got lead of a
half lap, but Pye died and this left
| Walker in front alone. Grenda, Clark
| anu (t1F eiiid6I Aidlu QOllC oil lllc PdC-
ing in catching the leaders, and they
pulled away for a very good lead
which they tried to stretch into
lap. They finally gave up, however,
and no sooner had the field come up
on them when Ryan and Cory took
! flier. This pair had q great lead
and as there was no apparent desire
on the part of any of the riders in the
big group behind to go after them
they seemed to be in a fair way to
gain a lap. Finally Cavanagh started
after them and made big gain, and
! Coburn and other riders then took up
the chase. Ryan could not stand the
| pace and Cory was left alone out in
front about a half lap in the lead,
with the crowd cheering madly for
the little Australian, who has more
! pluck than speed. Two laps from
| the finish Fogler, the celebrated
floating" partner, went to the front,
with Goullet on his wheel, and after
giving "Goullie" a magnificent pull"
| the latter won, with Rutt second,
| Spears third, John Bedell fourth and
Clark fifth. Rutt put up a great ride
| for first place, but Goullet, after that
pull was invincibie. Fogler made
the race, but it was teaming, never
| theless, and it was very unfair to
| Cory, who was making a brave effort
to win all alone. Cory held the lead
until 100 yards from the finish.
Spears Rides Fast Malf-Mile.
| Spears would have been the holder
of a new worlds record had he not
slowed down coming through the
homestretch in the half mile handi-
cap, which he won. Spears's time was
SO 3-5 seconds, and the record, which
/ ic hn1 hu T1o RI nd Ia in Go1f
Lake, is just a fifth OF second faster.
| Spears put up wonderful ride, and
is one of the best handicap riders in.
| the game. He was alone on scratch
and got very little help in the race.
Fred Hill was second, Jokus third
and Rupprecht fourth. Cory won
the four-mile post race, with Spears
second, Anderson third and Pye, Cam
eron and J. Bedell tied for fourth
money. Spears won the sprint in a
most spectacular manner after he
was seemingly hopelessly shut in a
| pocket. In getting out of the hole
Spears used rather rough tactics and
almost threw Jokus up against the
| top rail. The summarizes:
