AS far as boosting cycling is con-
cerned, I am strong for MacFarland
and strong for the game. but Mac
thinks ought to come out and fight
his battles, and he also feels as II he
should be allowed to criticise me If I
fail to write to suit his fancy. For
MacFarlands benefit 1 wish to say
that MAC" is big enough to fight his
own battles. I am not the contention
at all. He has decreed that Jay
Eaton shall be barred from the Velo-
drome, and say that he Is unfair
in doing so. Eaton Is an asset to
Clark, who is an asset to the track.
Eaton has an N. @. A. card and he
is member Of the riders associa-
tion. II the N. c. A. 10 any good 1t
will protect Eaton, and if the riders'
association is any good 1t will see
that Eaton Is given fair deal. In
any event, Eaton, I am told, is 60
ing to put the matter up to Captain
CORDIALLY, who will very likely take a
common sense view of the affair and
allow Eaton to manage Clark. AS
for myself am not an issue and
MacFarland will have to confine him.
self to the cyclists. He may "pan"
the riders all he likes and the riders
may have the same opportunity at
Mac" But will not run to Mac
Farland's rescue. He Will have to
fight his own battles.
