lose his title of national amateur

queror will be no other than a seven
teen-year-old lad who is a resident OF

las pounds and is five feet six inches
in height. Although he has never
ridden on a board track l believe
that he has enough speed to beat any
amateur in the country. saw him in

saw a lad go so fast. Just keep this
fellow from Bloomfield in mind and
watch him make Mac one of his easy
victims. CYCLE FAN.
