o
Taking a tip from Joe Fogler, Al
! fred Goullet has his strings out 70
Jack Neville, who has trained Cham
plon Frank Kramer so long, to worl
| for him next season. Fogler has I'M
pressed Goullet with the idea thai
| the championship Is his IL he gets
| Neville, and 1t Is said that Jack car
name a pretty big price for his SER
vices If he cares to make a change
| Goullet confesses that he would like
nothing better than to have Neville
look after him, but 1t is no sure
thing that such thing will come to
pass. With the exception of brief
respite, Neville has been with kram-
er ever since the champion first be-
came prominent. He trained Kramer
and he fought for Kramer, and time
has proven that 1t has been a most
wonderful combination to beat
Neville knows Kramer's every wish
and whim. and it has been a pleas
ure for him to see that the champion
was given every attention. With
Kramer It has always been a case
OF nobody like Jack. He took his
trainer to Europe, and he has al
ways treated him with every con-
sideration. Once when Kramer and
Neville we're ION the outs" over a
trining matter friends brought them
together again. That was the only
black spot in years and years OF
brightness. It would seem strange,
indeed, to see Kramer without
Neville Still stranger things have
happened.
While Neville is quoted as saying
there Is not a chance OF his leaving
Kramer and going with Goullet, Fog
Ter declares that Jack will be with
'Goullle' because 'Goullie' viii give
him the money" It is Fogler's opin-
ion also that the acquisition OF
Neville will mean the championship
for Goullet. F'ogier and Goullet are
very close and have been for some
time. They team it" whenever con-
ditions warrant, and they pal around
a good deal together. Fogler has the
managerial bee in his bonnet and he
feels as II he would be able to do
more for Goullet than Gouliet can
do for himself. This managerial buzz
ger Isn't brand-new with Sir Joseph
either, for back as far as two years
ago he made overtures to one Of the
other star riders TO do his business.
Since then he has stuck very close
to Goul1et and he had a very good
season this year more or lees because
of that fact. Now 1t is Fogler's am
bition, II is believed. to manage
Goullet and have Neville as the
trainer. There is no denying the fact
that this would be tremendously
powerful combination and It would
take an awful beating from any gang
of men.
Right az this stage OF the game,
though, re observe the elongated
form OF one Floyd A. Mcfarland.
general manager OF all things worthy
TO be called cycling. The question So,
what will "Mac" DO about said Goui-
-Fogier-Neville combination, Il
such thing should happen? An old
combination man himself. he wouldn't
Ike It IN the least, We would surmise.
and as result there would quite like
~ be q crash. Fogler behaves very
we'll whenever Mcfarland COM
nands, but Couiiet IS inclined to
stand on his dignity when ne doesn't
coincide with Macy Views. AS TO
Neviiie's part in the combination, II
is said that Jack has said that he will
be with Kramer next year. but st Is
also claimed that Neville told oouliet
ne would take his offer under con-
sideration when "Goullie" put ems
proposition UP to him
o
Kramer refused TO DISGUISE the mat
ter when IT was put up to him. Ali
he knows is that Neville has a GOT
with him as long as he Is In the rae
ing game. He doesn't cay what he
would do II Neville were 20 quit him
but lt is believed that Mory Gordon,
late with Goullet, would co-star witt
the American champion. Krame,
hasn't said so or even intimated al
much, but Gordon, ~ Is said. vvouldn''

mer and Neville remain together. 4
Is almost a certainty that Gordor
VIII train Bob Spears. This VIII nieas
that Spears will be a very keen con
tender next season. Bob has en-
speed, but he lacks the Judgment, and

give him advice. II is not TO be denle{
that a first-class trainer will make I

can say that Gordon isn't flrst-clas
man. Gordon feels that he would b.

he is keen on handling him. But, 0
