Applying Blowout Patch.

When applying a blowout patch to
torn casing care must be taken to see
that tine patch completely covers the le-
sion, with good margin of overlap all
around. TO insure the patch remaining
in place after the tube has been inserted
and inflated good scheme is to apply
the former to the tube, rather than to
the casing after .pBtiallv initiating it,
and to secure it in place by means of a
piece of light string. The patch will
then "stay with the tube and if prop
erIy laid into the casing will work per-
fectly. The string may break when in
f1ation is completed, but if light enough
will not chafe the tube. Rubberized or ce-
mented patches, OF course, require no
such precaution.

THE temporary committee in

ments for the race meet to be
conducted by the National
Capital Motor Cycle Club at
Benning track May 50 was made per-
nanent at meeting of the club held
last Wednesday. This committee consists
of c. A. Hutchins and Fred NJ. Mills.
treasurer and secretary. respectively, and
these officials will later on be reinforced
by the appointment of three additional
members. making a committee consisting
of tive who will have complete charge of
the management of the meet. This course
was decided upon after some discussion,
the club members believing that q com
mittee of limited size will be more sue
cessfu in promoting the event than was
the committee of fourteen members which
was in charge of the races held July
last.
The committee was requested to present
tentative program of events at the cfn5
meeting to be held Wednesday. in order
that the members may get a line OH the
different classes of machines and riders
that will be invited to compete. 1t is
understood that program somewhat

prizes will be in the hands of the referee
before the races and will he given to the
winners immediately following each
event. So much confusion followed the

The confusion last year resulted from
the entry of Il rider whose eligibility
questioned and the awarding of prizes
was held up until decision was rem
dered by the contest board of the Fedora
ton of American Motor Cyclists. While
brought about through fault of the
club officials, the affair brought the CLUB
much undesirable publicity and the club
has no desire for repetition this year.

Ported Motors Allowed.

At the meet of last year the entry of
ported motors was prohibited, the compe-
tition committee believing it unsafe to al
low them to compete. This ruling bar
red the strictly racing machine from the
meet and caused some dissatisfaction
among the riders. 1t is probable that the
free-for-all race May 80 will be open to
any motor that complies with the F. A
NJ. requirements. and riders with ported
motors will be able to enter them in that
event. Although on Benning track the
race is not always to the swift and is
more often won by the rider who can go
the distance at reasonable speed open
Ing this one event to ported motors should
provide excitement for the spectators be-
cause of the speed which can be made
