LIONS SHARE FOR
FOREIGN CYCLISTS
Points Table DisclOses Fact
That Invaders Have Won
Majority of Races.
GOULLET ADDS TO LEAD

The points table for the season to
date discloses the fact that foreign
riders have won more races than the
American riders. Yankee riders have
won las races. while the foreigners
have captured 162. The Australians
have won the lions share of the
sprint events, nine Antipodeans haV-
ing taken 11S races. ALI Goullet and
ALI Grenda, who are first and second
in the points table, have won 70
races alone. European riders, repre-
senting Germany, Denmark, Italy,
England and Switzerland, have won
Al races. The principal European
winners are Walter Rutt, the German
champion; Cesar Moretti, of Italy
and Norman Anderson, of Denmark.
1t is quite an unusual thing in ath-
letics in this country for foreign
competitors to Guido the Yanks,
and cycling is probably the only
sport in which this is the case.
Goullet was the biggest winner of
the week and has gained three points
on his nearest rival, Grenda. Goullet
won at New Haven, and he was sec
ond in the half-mile open at the
Velodrome Sunday. Kramer did not
score a point, but there were thirty
five other riders who Jared no better
than the champion. The points table

Local Elks Start Season
on Alleys With Victory

The championship Newark team of
the Senior Elks' Bowling League last
night succeeded in getting the odd
game from the Hoboken bowlers on
their Green street clubhouse drives.
1t marked the opening of the bowling
season for both teams and a good
crowd saw three interesting and eXcit-
ing games. William Weingarth rolled
only las in the first game, but he was
there in the pinch, hammering the
pins for three strikes at the windup
and enabling the Newarkers to take
the first game by the narrow margin
of seven pins. In this game Vein
garth encountered five holes. The sec
ond game found the Newarkers floun-
dering but in the third setto the local
PIN smashers won out by fourteen
pins.
Branda, of Hoboken, was high man
of the night, with 224. Earle, of Ho-
boken, started right after individual
honors. polling 1877, 200 and 179 for
three games. Williams, for Newark,
had POI score in the opening SEES
sion.

Frank Cavanagh second, while
Charley Stern beat Jimmy Hunter In
a two-mile motorcycle race. Willie

GOLF LINKS TN CEMETERY

Unique golf items come from
foreign lands from time to time, one
of the latest being an account of a
Chinese course which had been laid
out in large cemetery. The rather
grewsome links are located near
Tientsin, and as the Chinese bury
their dead just below the surface of
the ground and then mound up the
earth to a considerable height, the
course has been aptly termed one Of
"a thousand bunkers." Special
ground rules prevail, including onA
which permits a player to lift his ball
from freshly-dug grave. The
Chinese caddies receive i've certs
per round of eighteen holes.

LAST DAY But ONE
OF OUTDOOR RACING
Tandem-Paced Race Expected
to Bring Out Interesting
Competition.
GOULLET SURE FACTOR

.sgQHtdoor racing is fast coming to
an end for the season of 1914 After
the meet of tomorrow at the Velo-
drome there will be one more meet,
aud then the six-day season will be
on its way. The present year has
been the greatest in the history of
the sport in this city and the good
cards that have been responsible for
the success of the sport under the
management of Floyd MacFarland
will be continued to the final meet.
The aprogram for tomorrow is a big
one and one that is sure to produce
some interesting competition. The
feature contest, a ten-mile tandem
paced race, in which ALT Goullet,
Oscar Egg and Reggie Mcnamara
will be the starters looks very prom

All three riders are in great shape,
and the forced layoff Of yesterday
on account of the rain has not in

Egg. Both of these riders went
dead in training for their race of
last Sunday, and a rest was just
what they needed. Goullet showed
that he is in good formerly admins

New Haven last night. If Goullet
makes the going as hot as he can
stand 1t at the start of the race,

Goullet is unable to hold his speed
all the way Egg and Mcnamara will

Rain May Halt Kramer.

Unless the rain stops and gives the
track a chance to dry thoroughly by
tomorrow afternoon, Champion Kra-
mer will find it very big task to
ride under the unofficial record of

heavy, but If there is sufficient sun
and wind the boards will swell and

Hardest Kind of Task.

A record trial of this sort is about
the hardest task which could be
asked of rider. 1t is a sprint all
the way, with each rider going one
lap as fast as he can sprint. The
riders know this and for that rea-
son they have all requested to be the
first one to pace. But Manager Mac
Farland has attended to the order in
which the riders will pace, and
Fogler will be number one. Then
will come Egg, Mcnamara, Goullet
and Grenda and then Kramer. The
champion will follow big Grenda all
the way, and the Tasmanian win
give him all the protection possible
in addition to a steady ride. Grenda
will have as hard a ride as Kramer,
as he win be following Goullet, who
rides low and gives but little pro-
lection to such a big man as his
countryman.

This year Goullet has competed in
six tandem paced races. and he won
four of them. He defeated Jackie
Clark. ALI Grenda, Walter Rutt,
Frank Kramer and Joe Fogler, and
in the two races in which he was
beaten his defeat was the result of
punctured tires, which cost him lap
in each through changing wheels.
At. the time of the mishaps in these
races Goullet was leading and a sure
winner. On this record "Goullie"
cannot be figured an outsider by any
means in the race tomorrow. Egg
and Mcnamara have made a special
ty of paced races and are two of the
best men in the world in that divi-
sion, of the sport, but Goullet has a
chance with them and will be con-
tender and a strong contender, too.

Johns Shows Old Form.
In postponed Senior Elks' League
bowling series, in New York, last
night, the New York Elks cleaned UP
in their match with the Rutherford
quintet. The match marked the re-
appearance of Lee r. Johns, who
at one time controlled the oxford
alleys, now run by Weingarth &
Whatton, in Broad street. Johns,
some time ago, confined his efforts
to individual matches. Rolling for
New York, he had scores last night
of 212, 200 and 1888. Louis Westphal
rolled scores of 214, 1876 and 235. A
Westphal also rolled a towering mark
of 225. Clark was the only Ruther-
ford member to get a double century
count, scattering the pints for 203 in
the second game. The Manhattan
pin knights had little difficulty taking
the match All of their scores were
well over the 900 mark.
