Young Bobby Walthour Makes
His Debut and Wins Mile
Match.

The preliminaries to the annual six
day bicycle race In Madison Square Gar
den were held last night and despite the
fact that the followers OF the pedal
demons have had only one weeks inter
mission since the last seven days of the
sport, big crowd was present II
wasn't crowd that overfiowed from the
building. The gallery was jammed and
the balconies filed, but there were many
vacant seats in the arena and the per-
sons In the pit numbered few more than
thousand.
Maurice Brocco, the speedy but erratic
Italian, and Frank Kramer. the veteran
American champion, were the heroes Of
the show. They are idols with the fans.
and every time they appeared on the
saucer they were greeted with thunder
GUS applause.
Another rider on whom much interest
centred was Bobby Walthour, Jr., a son
or the once famous Georgia flyer. The
youngster Is a chip Of the old block.
He Is an image Of his father and pos
sesses lot of his speed and stamina.
The first event to be decided was n
handicap affair at two-thirds Of a mile
for amateurs. 1t was run In four heats.
The event went to Fred j. Zierow of
the Century Road Club. He was In re-
ceipt of a fifty yard handicap and after
qualifying easily in his heat came back
and won the final by length. Jack
thinner OF Newark was second and w.
s. Fem, Jr.. Of Newark was third. The
time of the race was I'm. 19s.
Wnlthour. Jr., In Front.
Bobby Walthour, Jr., won the second
event. 1t was match at one mile, two
out Of three heats, between Walthour
and w. s. Fem, Jr. Young Bobby took
the first two heats without much trouble.
He followed Fem in the first until two
laps from home, when the young Geor-
.gian went to the front and remained
there without doing his best to win by
two lengths.
In the second and deciding heat Wal
thour and Fem jockeyed for position for
three-quarters of a mile. Then Wal
thour got the rail position and started TO
sprint. He sped around at good clip
and never allowed his opponent to get
near his rear wheel. He captured this
heat by three lengths. The time Of the
first heat was 2 "a AS and the second
heat 2 :45 AS.
Anthony Young of Newark made his
debut as a professional In two-third
mile handicap and led home q fair sized
field of veterans in the final heat. Willie
Coburn was second and Claus Van Mex
was third. Young had a handicap OF
fifty yards.
The widest kind of excitement came
with the unlimited pursuit race, in which
Oscar Egg and Maurice Brocco opposed
Reggie Mcnamara and Willie Spencer.
1t was one of the races connected with

Local Ranking Completed.

To the ten players named at the head
the Metropolitan Tennis Association has
added nearly one hundred more, listing
them in Ave groups instead of attempt
ing to name them individually in the
order ofNmerit. The committee consid-
cred that in numerous cases the records
of the players were too nearly equal to
permit of any other classification beyond
the first ten.
In announcing It's findings the commit
tee called attention to the fact that It had
considered only records established In
sanctioned tournaments of the metropoii-
tan district. excluding invitation events.
In lieu Of sanctioned open tournaments,
play in the team matches of the metro
politan league was taken into account.

participate In three tournaments or three

'|THE MIRACLE MAN"
 LAST TIME TONIGHT
 'SQUAW MAN" COMING

For the last time tonight "The Miracle Man" is showing at the Elm press. If there is anyone, man, wo- man or child, who has not seen it, they will not miss the opportunity on this last presentation. Many who have seen it, will view it again, for it is a picture of such absorbing interest, so vivid, so vital, so in spring, that much that escapes the attention the first time it is seen will be revealed the second time.
 In story, in characterization and in production, this is truly a great feature,-the most talked about pie ture of the year, and one of the few big super-productions that are not disappearing.
 Tomorrow's feature will be the big Cecil B. DeMille production "The Squaw Man"
 As pure, unadulterated entertain IneHl Ol IHe IlloSt pclleSt hIlu, 1h0 Squaw Man" is unequalled. It has everything photodrama should have to make it popular including a cast of such uniform stellar ex- cellence that it is difficult to choose between the individual members.
 Elliot Dexter Ann Little, Katherine Mcdonald, Theodore Roberts, Jack Holt-all are names with which to conjure, and all have important roles in the production.

GOVERNOR TO RETIRE
 FROM PUBLIC LIFE

That Governor Thomas Riggs will retire from public life when he is relieved of his duties as chief execu- tive of the territory, was confirmed by statement made by him yester- day, says the Juneau Capitol. That I will retire from public life goes without saying" stated the governor. He refused to make any statement at present as to what his plans for the future are. "It is impossible for me to have any definite plans at present." said Governor Riggs, for although my resignation will be in the hands of the new presi- dent on March 4, it is necessary to await his action on the matter. will make statement as to my own plans when the proper time comes"
 The governor also stated that as the territorial legislature convenes on March it is necessary that there be a governor here at that time to direct them and that there are certain reports and instructions which the governor has to deliver to the legislature at their opening session.
 Although the governor refused to make a definite statement as to his personal plans, he intimated in his interview that he would remain in Alaska engaged in his private in ! terests.

NEW ATTORNEY :, GENERAL HAS
 BUSY FUTURE

From now until the legislature goes into session next March will be busy days for Attorney-General John Rust gard, for in addition to getting into touch with the affairs of the office he will assume, there is likely to be one of the busiest seasons in the his tory of the territory, says the Juneau Capital. The bulk of the work will be in providing legal modus operandi for number of amendments that will in all likihood be made to the present laws. Among these will be the eight hour law, into which it is proposed to put some teeth at the next session. This law, as at present interpreted, fails of it's purpose due to test case having been made on an incident in volving teaming. The court decided adversely in the case on a technical ity Those favoring labor legislation hope to evolve law that will be workable and ct the same time stand the test of judicial interpretation.
 Another law will be one defining timber, aimed to protect laborers and sub-contraCtors cutting cordwood. It will be remembered that under an Oregon decision the territorial court was compelled to decide that cord wood was not timber under the strict interpre taton of the act, the case re- sulting in a number of men suffering the loss practically of a seasons work
 Among the other measures will be one covering administration of estates of those dying intestate.
 Just what other measures are con templated no one knows, and will not know until the bills begin to pour in
 In anticipation of a deluge of pro- gressive measures, MT. Rustgard is accommodating copies of such legisla- ton passed in the states and it is hoped out of the whole to secure measures that will meet every need of the territory.
