kramer-Piani Team Captures
Feature Event at Velodrome

Frank Kramer and Orlando Piani,
riding in a brilliant manner, won the
onemile team match race from Alfred
Goullet and Willie Spencer at the Velo-
drome in Newark yesterday afternoon
before a crowd of fifteen thousand who
braved the cold winds. Kramer and
Piani won in two straight heats, and
aid so in a good deal the same manner
SIS last week, when they triumphed over
Goullet and Moeskops in straight heats
Kramer pulled Piani in both heats
In the first one he remained out in
front until a quarter of lap from
home, and probably could have won the
race himself had he cared to, but in
stead he swung low and let Piani fight
off Goulet TO the tape. Piani was more
than equal to the task and won by a
good margin.
The second heat was the better Of the
two, and at one time it looked as if
Goullet and Spencer would surely be
returned the winners. Kramer was out
in front pulling Piani, but going into
the last lap Spencer whipped around
both riders, opened up gap and was
on his way Kramer chased for a short
distance and then put it UP to Piani to

For the last three years George
ThN,pson. dusky athlete OF the st.
Christopher Club has nursed an am
hilton TO win road race. George
made no secret of his aspirations. In
fact. he tried valiantly on no less than
fortv-fve occasions to CAPTURE first

of a five-mile race held by the ST. Vim
cent Ferrer A. c.
THOMPSON. with handicap OF five
minutes. led from the half-mile mark
and finished 100 yards in front Of Bill
Roak, of the Mohawk A. c., in 33
minutes and 50 seconds.
Despite the fact that the st. Chst
rher runner had an allowance of only
ffteen seconds under the limit, his per-
forrnance was worthy one, for he
faced a field of unusually fast run
ners and showed hne judgment of pace.
Titterton Makes Best Time
Gold winds and muddy roads kept the
field down somewhat, but OF the sixty
six thinly-o,ad barriers who faced the
starter ffty-seven ran the route.
Frank Titterton. of the Mohawk A. c.,
who started from scratch, won the fast
time prize. the veteran representative
Of the Indians being clocked in 1921.
Frank drew up in thirty-fourth posi-
ton.
The consistent running of the Mo-
hawk men won the team prize for that
organization, while the second trophy
went to the ST Christopher Club.
As the five-minute men we're sent
from the mark in front of the clubhouse
in East Sixty-ffth Street Thompson
raced into the lead. Boak was carried
along by the ST. Christopher man, and
a. the half-mile mark J. Mccarthy, of
