Goullet and Grenda showed 10 bet
ter advantage in the last fifteen hours
than at any time since the six-day
race in the Garden started, and J
cannot see how they can lose. An ae-
eident seems 10 be the only thing
that can stop them now Gou1let was
easily the best man in the race last
night. He was sprinting marvellous
" well, and no one Of the competitors
could nave matched that sprint
Grenda seems to be very good, too, al
though he has not done anything more
than defend himself IN the spirits. 7
talked with Grenda this morning and
he said he was feeling better than ne
ever did IN a six-day race. He IS thin,
but he looks very good.
Grends Can Repeat.
Some Of the riders and. IN fact, the
majority Of them say that Grenda
cannot repeat and viii not be able to
do much in the Berlin system finish.
but I differ with them. / have seer
him repeat in big races at the Veto
drome, in which there were special
mile prizes, and 1 have seen him re-
peat in hard haudicaps also. He'll be
able to repeat, and his repeating viii
surprise some Of them. as well as beat
them.
Cayanagh Near End of Rope.
As a whole, the riders are in pretty
good shape now. The last division
teams are pretty bad. but it is only
matter Of hours before several OF
them win be out Of the race. Poor
Frank CaVanagh is almost ali 81
and ne is ready to quit any minnde
He would have been out long sS2
but he was just game enough TO stl.--S
Piercey is just as bad as he is, and ii
will be pleasing to Piercey to end the
agony.
Hanley Game Rider.
Thomas and Hanley are having ;
hard fight to hold their place in the
second division. They are pretty
weary and had to use champagne to
get them through the big jams last
night. They may come back after to-
night. however. Wednesday is the
worst day in the race. as a rule, and
If team is bad on Tuesday theii
finish is almost sure TO come Wed
nesday. Hanley is gaming 1t and Is
riding a really good race for an unex-
perienced amateur.
I stiIl believe that Clark and Roo
are under cover and are much better
F! than is generally believed They APP
pear to be riding easy all the time
and either waiting for a good chance
to go after a lap or waiting for the
finish and making the race as easy
as possible for themselves. They ara
always up at the front in all Of tbs
| sprints and on guard for anytlline
that may come off. In fact, they show
confidence and seem to be quite sure
OF themselves.
Egg Riding Well.
| Fogler and Hill are good and they
may win. as MacFarland believes, but
I can't see where they have an ad-
/ vantage over Goullet and Grenda
Egg is still riding in grand form AND
| he is one of the most aggressive Euro
pean riders who ever rode the race
/ Verri is not I'D to the hard going Just
now, but he is not IN bad way. He
I is merely a bit off and wiz come bach

Kaiser still Some Rider.
Harry Kaiser does not seem to be
quite as good as he was, although he
+ is still some bike rider He is JUS
having his first setback. and II has
got him worried. Like all riders Of
encourag ed him by telling him he is
not the only one of the first division
men who is suffering from that tired
feeling.
Spirits Tell Who Is Who.
The sprints for the primes last nigh
showed pretty much who is who, and
I the teams that win probably be doing
battle at the end are Clark and Rosa

Moran. The Mcnamara Moran team
is still the most aggressive, but there
was not as much go to them yester-
day as there was on the first day
They may be much better after the
middle Of the journey is reached
There viii probably be a big jam
tonight that Will break up the neio

The biggest sprint of six-day race
comes either on Wednesday or Fri
day, and can see some Of the star
teams itching for that big bust now
