Riders Train
Diligently
For Grind
BY GARRETT WATERS


'"When Washington can get
two big bicycle events In the
short span Of two months, it's
time to feel the pedal sport Is
really taking step up the lad
der"
So ventured Milton Sencindiver,
Washington representative OF the
Amateur Bicycle League Of Amer
lea, today in discussing the Olym-
pic trials and the finals to be
staged here, May 10 and July B.
Adds Sencindiver:
cts about time the local rid
ers get a break. In the past
the boys have had their little
clubs and enjoyed meets, but
never before have they had o
chance to really show them
selves off before the local pub
lic."
The boys are really serious
about both the trials and the
finals. For weeks now, they've
trained diligently to be in condi-
ton, since they realize it takes
both speed and stamina to last
62h mileS-the distance for both
events.
Entries Pile Up
Getting back to Sencindiver, the
representative of the amateur
bicycle association, has received
a desk full Of entries. Many Of
the riders are we'll known to Wash
ington fans, such as Edgar Bieber,
former D. C. champion; Ralph
Jackson. present D. C. champ;
James Armando, member Of the
1924 U. S. Olympic team;
Anthony Morner, and William
Cauffman, jr.
There are others, however, who
are certain to make their pres
ence felt. This group includes
Bob KEENAN,, a real conner, &C
cording to Sencindiver; Harry Sci
gel, David Bowman, William L.
McDougall, Quenton Miller, Herb
Ferris, C. E. Doan, Whilden Helm
ard, Claude Corr, Ralph Stevens
and Joe Snouffer.
Now, to explain the trials and
finals a bit, the former takes place
May 10 and will be strictly for
local riders. Twenty per cent Of
the starters who finish will qualify
for the sectional trials at Newark,
N. j., in June.
Nine Sections Compete
Groups for nine sections Of the
country will compete in the New
ark trials, Washington being one
Of the sections. The first four to
finish in each section will return
to Washington on July 5 for the
finals.
Then the first six to cross the
finish line Of this group of SO riders
will become the team to represent
the United States in the Olympics.
The route for both the trials and
the finals will be from the Virginia
side of Memorial Bridge to Mt.
Vernon. The riders must pedal
this distance twice. Sencindiver
is authority that this measures
62.5 miles, the required olympic
distance.
The May 10 grind will begin at
6 a. m. ending about 10:45 a. m.
The finals will be waged at a more
popular hour, probably in the
afternoon. Plans are being worked
out for the latter, which will be
announced at later date.

Director: Frank Lloyd. Cast:
Claudette Colbert, Ronald Colman,
Victor McLaglen, Rosalind Rus
sell, Gregory Ratoff.
Ouida's colorful, romantic story
of the Foreign Legion has gained
in dramatic appeal in it's transfer
ence to the screen. The exciting
life of the Legionnaires, the con-
slant danger they faced at the
edge of the desert of Gidi, as well
as the touching romance between
Cigarette and Victor, stir interest
and sympathy. Pictorially the
production is exceptionally fine,
with desert scenes that are breath
takingly beautiful, convincing bat
tie sequences and picturesque
Arab riders. The powerful cast
has been exceptionally well chosen
and each one plays his part with
great effectiveness. The story is
reminiscent of Beau Geste and
carries all the stark drama, CLAM
or, bravery, sacrifice and tense eX-
citement of that famous story,
Family.
