Georgetti Sees Doom
OF Bike Racing, Quits
Here With II Others

six-day bicycle racing days In
America are gone, says Franco
Georgetti, disillusioned dean Of the
worlds riders. The former million
aire who has been racing for more
than 80 years was member Of
one of the six teams which yester-
day walked out on the six-day grind
at the National Guard Armory,
leaving five teams still whirling
around the bowl toward tomorrow
nights. finish.
The poor crowds, averaging less
than 400 a night, led to fears that
the riders would not be paid for
their efforts, hence the walkout.
Track officials said that the Ma
tional Cycling Association, which
controls the professional sport in
this country and which sanctioned
the local meet, will bar all the men
who quit.
Will Return to Italy.
Commented Georgetti: Bike
racing days in America are gone.
The future of the sport here in the
United States Is as black as possible.
It looks as though South America
Is the only place to 60 now" AS
for himself, Georgetti says he will
return to Milan, Italy, and open a
bicycle shop.
Beside Georgetti, the following
riders called it quits yesterday:
From Germany-Custav Kilian,
considered to be one of the worlds
top cyclists, and the worlds top
prewar rider.
From France-Roger LIE Nizerhy,
1886 Olympic cycling champ; Jean
Goujon, Robert Mignat, who finished
second in Europe's toughest race, the
Tour de France; and Georges
CUTLER, winner of the French motor
paced title in 1947 and 1948.
From Italy - Primo Bergomi,
italian sprint champ since 1910, and
Severino Rigoni, holder OF several
international titles.
From Denmark-Cad Koblauch,
world speed champ.
From Belgium-Jean Louis Saen,
co-winner of New York's recent 68th
international meet and holder OF
numerous world titles.
From Holland-Arie Vooren, Dutch
distance champ, and Gerard Van
Beck, top-fight European endur-
ance rider.
New Team in Lead.
The riders said they had received
only s1S apiece for three days
work. They had been guaranteed
s65 per day, they said.
Last nights gate receipts were
distributed into the hands OF the

ARRESTS ARE MADE
AT SITkA; SHELTER
CABINS FILTERED

SITKA, Alaska, Oct. 22.-lR--
Federal authorities moved today to
halt the stripping OF public cab
ms used as emergency shelters in
isolated areas.
Five men were arrested on a
charge of cabin pilfering and
bound over to a grand jury. U. S.
Marshal Max Rogers said more ar
rests may follow.
U. S. Commissioner Frank Rich
ards commented, as the five were
brought before him, that cabin
stripping could cost the lives OF
hunters or trappers since they are
stocked with food and other ar
ticles for emergency use. He set
bond for each of the men at $500.
The accused are Samuel H. Hart
ley, longshoreman, and four fish
ermen, Howard L. McLain, Walter
r. johnson, Willard r. johnson
and Roland j. Bingham. All are
from Sitka.
They were charged with taking
cots, blankets and other articles
from the cabins, which are main
tanned by the Alaska Native Service.
