Dick Remer was on scratch, and after the
first mile It looked as though he had
matters all his own way. He caught
all but REM and was only stride be-
hind the Mohawk man when the real race
began. REM showed that he had learned
a lot about the heel and toe game In the
last few months. for, lengthening his
stride. he drew away from Remer. who In
turn had to give way to clifford. Rens
won by forty yards from clifford. Kali
ser headed the tired Remer in the last
lap. but Vollmeke, in spite of transgres-
sions OF the walking code, finished behind
the scratch man.
