There is no special time between en-
gagement and marnrage
POPULARITY.
Now the battles over, the victory is
won,
Which caused such great excitement
from the time that it begun.
The contest in the Evening Star, I'm
sure you'll all agree,
Was fair and square toward the
cyclists popularity.
A victor of the Velodrome, a favorite
from the start,
Who proved himself the victor in the
contest-Jackie Clark.
The race. indeed, was very close, all
kinds of bets were on,
Between the Australian Rocket and
Americas champion.
Jack. I'm sure, deserved his prize but
let's give Frank his due;
As rider with some record, who
I'm sure deserves his, too.
The list of votes between them both
sure made them stand alone,
And proves a square deal to the fans
who throng the Velodrome.
And last of all, but not the least,
here's boys we can't forget:
Cavanagh, Rutt and Grenda, Bobby
Spears and ALT Goullet.
Boys, as well as Clark and Kramer,
when put to the test,
Are riders, too, without a doubt, and
prove some of the best.
