for him to be crooked he would quit

Cycling Dead in Europe. says MacrarIand.

Manager mcfarland is of the
opinion that there will be no racing
in Europe for many years, and, ac-
cording to tile manager it will be
fifty years before the cycle racing
game will reach the magnitude and
success it enjoyed at the time the
war broke out. With a number of
prominent riders killed in only
eleven weeks of warfare, and many
more sure to fall if the war lasts
three years, as Lord Kitchener pre-
diets, the ranks of the riders will be
sc.ely depleted. But it will not be
the loss of the riders as much as the
financial ruin and bitter internal
tional feeling which will prevail after
the war which will cause the sport
to lay dormant for years. 1t is the
international flavor that makes the
sport, but after the war it will be
many years before there will be any
meets in which all nations are repre-
scented. Germany will suffer the
most in this respect, for, win or lose,
French, English and Belgian cyclists
will never be well received on Ger
man tracks, and it is doubtful if
riders from these countries will be
invited to compete in Germany.

WIN RIDERS Escaped War DUTY.

The fans are wondering how these
riders are able to get out of France
at this time. Being able-bodied men
it does seem unusual that the mill
tary authorities would permit them
to leave; but in the eyes of the mill
tary authorities they are not able
bodied. Darragon has broken his
right wrist five times In falls, and as
a result there Is a peculiar crook in
his wrist, which, according TO the au-
thorlties, makes him unfit for mill
tary duty. Sores has had a fever
which eliminates him from the list of
eliglbles, although the only appar-
ent result of the fever is a hairless
head that resembles a billiard ball in
appearance. Merguer is not of age,
and that lets him out.

After French Riders for 1915.

Manager mcfarland expects to
keep George Sores, Louis Darragon
and George Merguer, the French rid
ers, who are coming for the New
York siX-day race, in America for the
outdoor season of 1915. mcfarland
will offer these riders good contracts
and he is confident that they will
accept. Sores and Darragon are two
of the best motor-paced riders in
Europe and the former Is a wonder in
tandem paced races. He has beaten
Oscar Egg in battles behind the tam
dems which puts the Q. X. on him.

Cycling in this country will profit
largely on account of the war. Here
tofore foreign cyclists have demanded
large sums for their appearance here,
but now some of the most prominent
riders of Europe are so eager to get
out of Europe they are willing to
come here for their expenses only.
Saturday Manager mcfarland re-
ceived a cablegram from a French
sprinter who has won a worlds
championship and the championship
of France, asking for a contract
which will guarantee expenses. Last
year this same rider demanded $1,000
for one month of racing at the Velo-
