Johnson is entirely surrounded by BIZ

fancy. He thought at one time he
would go forth as professional rid

exciting conquests. But he didn't.
When he quit racing he began fix

can now be found in an odd looking
little shop in a back street in Atlanta
where he has been for eleven years.
The queerness of the place draws
many customers.
The doors of the shop are never
opened until noon and are never clos

naming open until 2 o'clock in the
morning. The life of Will Johnson has
been entirely free from any sort of
dissipation, and yet his hours are sim

In his little shop the former speed
king does all sorts of bicycle work
