odds are before the start of the race
that he will be returned winner.
o
The Wise Ikese have it that Goui-
lei is going out in front with Mo.
retti on his wheel. ana that Kramer
will have to race his head off If he
wants to get to the front. Goullet
will be ready for his jump and Mo-
retti viii be on the alert to see that
/ the champion doesn't get by without
a switch or two. If the big race IS
run in that fashion there would be
/ small hope for Kramer, but Steve"
has been up against stranger propo-
+ sitions before and he has come sail
/ ing home with the long green.
o
No matter how well we think of
Kramer there Is no getting away
from the fact that Goullet displayed
wonderful form in defeating Rutt and
Spears in the second semi-final heat
of the Cycle Derby Wednesday night.
/ Il was about the best performance
that "Goullie" has shown around
here, which is evidence that it was
really wonderful, for Goullet has
beaten Kramer. and he has beaten
Clark and all the other stars now AMI
then. and even often. His ride against
Rutt was particularly good because
he stood up under such fierce attacks.
Rutt battled him for two laps and
then allowed Spears to come at the
very end and tackle "Goullie" with
out result. The fans were quick to
give Goullet credit for his great ride,
and he is being picked by a large
number of good judges to beat Kra-
mer on Sunday. On his ride Wednes-
day night he has a good chance, but
then Kramer, too, always has some
great racing UP his sleeve whenever
the occasion demands.
o
The fans may not know it, and the
referee may not know it, but Mo-
retti is getting to be quite a business
man" He may have learned the
trade from Joe Fogler. the pastmas-
ter fixer, but it seems he has learned
well. 'Old Moret" is a fox. He can
pick out the soft spots as we'll as the
next one, and he doesn't have to know
English to do 1t. He framed up a
combination with Spears and Lawson
last Sunday and the men collected
the first three moneys. Spears was
first and Moretti and Lawson rode a
dead heat. In the final of the cycle
Derby you can bet your bottom dol
lar Moretti will be in somewhere In
his semi-flnal, which he won, he was
anxious to do business with Clark or
Bailey. Clark said no and Bailey
must have turned him down. Then
Moretti went out and won the heat.
@
The interest IN the tandem chani-
pionship is almost as keen as Is the
interest In the Cycle Derby. This was
brought about by the high-class
teams entered, and especially the
fact that Kramer and Goullet have
doubled UP. This team looks like The
real thing, and barring accidents
should win the race There is another
team in the race that may upset cal
culations. Reference is made to the
Clark combination. The big
German" is known to be a bear on
tandem, but the Little Rocket" is a
doubtful quantity. Jackie rode we'll
with Worth Mitten in the tandeni-
paced race, and he may just fit In
with Rutt Kramer and Goullet are
exceptionally good, as they pedal 20
well together, still the field, which
includes Grenda and Walker, Cava-
nagh and Hill, Fogier and Lawson
and others Is such classy one that
the least mistake may decide the Is

o
Arthur Ross, the referee, has sus-
pended Jay Eaton indefinitely, and IL
will probably be some time before
the old gentleman will be seen in the
saddle. Eaton drew his suspension
for using offensive language to Ross
He referred to the referee in a spec
tacular manner and called him a hid
eous name. Ross did the only thing
possible-indehnite suspension.
O.
In return for the suspension,
Eaton has threatened to make
trouble. Jay looks upon himself as a
sort Of bully and dictator for the Sec
ond string riders, and he even as
sumes charge of the squabbles OF the
amateurs. But he is to be tanned and
tanned severely this time Whenever
anything comes up II is Eaton's cry
that he will cause trouble. He led
the strike that broke out a year ago
but he was turned down even in his
own ranks. He talks much about his
disturbing qualities, and he has beer
able to bluff his way through at this
Velodrome all year. He is on the out.
side now, though, and Manager Mac.
Farland says he win see that he stay.
