not to come flying up the stretch at
the last moment and nip Rutt at the
tape, and Cavanagh may get one of
those flying notions of his and take
Rutt so fast that the big German
will be unable to come out from be-
hind him and win. In the Kramer
heat, big Alf' Grenda has a look-in.
This Tall Tasmanian' may get go
ing with Joe Fogler on and the cham
pion third and Kramer would have
high old time getting by. Yes, there
is a chance that Rutt will fail and
that Kramer will fail, but the chances
that they won't fail are of course
more numerous.

The semi-fnal heat, known as the
Clark heat, is the toughest PROPOSE
ton on the card. Clark, because of
his great form, seems to be the favor
lite over Goullet, who, with Pete Dro-
bach, compose the field. over this
heat there will be arguments galore,
match race between these two hated
rivals in order that there shall be no
worry for either of them and that
they can put all their energy in their
efforts to get into the thousand dollar
prize event. The Clark Goullet-Dro
/ bach heat is practically match race
between these boys and there will be
desperate struggle to get home first.
Although Clark has shown the better
form so far, Goullet is coming around
very fast. and he says that he will
lick" Jackie sure. Anyway, now
that the Evening Star has been able
to print the semi final heats, the bike
fans will have plenty to chew the
rag" about until Wednesday night,
In your discussions be fair. Remem-
Der that there are four riders of about
equal ability and one of them must
| fall before the final is reached
Kramer is the king and it would be
unfair to put either Rutt, Clark or
Goullet in the heat with him. Rutt is
the next best man, and it would be
unfair to put either Clark or Goullet
in the heat with him. As the heats
are, it looks as if Kramer. Rutt and
either Clark or Goullet will reach the
final But there is no telling for sure.
Maybe more than one of the big guns
will be shut out of the final heat
c
After the semi-finals have been de.
cided there will be disappointment
stakes" in which the six beaten cy.
clists will compete. This stake race
will have three prizes, with So
first, and it will be run in three quail
flying heats and a final This race
promises to be almost as interesting
as the big race

Walter Rutt got back in the gam'
yesterday and he showed rare form
He won the hve-mile open, defeating
Clark, who received a rare old pull
from Cavanagh. Rutt, with a new
ly-mended collarbone, showed grea
gameness in his ride.

Frank Kramer didn't surprise any
body by defeating Jackie Clark i
their return match on Saturday. TIL
champion won in two straight heats
both ridden from in front. In tn
Il second heat there was a wild uproa
from Clark's admirers when Krame
switched" Clark just before comm
into the home stretch, but these sam
fans didn't say "boo" when Clar
forced Kramer off on the fiat rigf
in front of the grandstand in the Yer
same heat The switch didn't cl
any figure in the result, and VIII
Kramer did it is difficult to unde
stand Perhaps he remembered whi
Clark had done to him only a Ia
previous. In that case it behoove
Kramer to beat Clark to the fir
turn, bunk up into him or fall. I<ri
mer avoided the bump and the fl
by getting to the turn ahead of Clar
