That U tho record of Menus Bedell, tho rrand old man of the bicycle. " ( An outsider In every race In which he has com peted this yenr nni n winner of the largest ptiroe grind offered this season that is the record of Harry KaUer, tho New York speed boy. A cold wind cut across the Held at the Tolnt Ureeze Velodrome last nlplit and some ten thousand odd specta tors cuddled in the stands ns Bedell, tho dark horse, rodo himself and his trusty bike to the highest notch in American pedaling, and Kaiser, an odd.s-ngnlnst sprint er, spcd to victory over a field of the protest short distance performed In the world a The speed displayed by the veteran Bedell belied his thirty-seven years. Ills sturdy legs pedaled so fast that they tested the power of the motor controlled by his pace-setter, Norman Anderson, and shattered his own tecoril for an hour's race. The Long Island grinder not only copped the American fifty-mile motor-paced championship, but in t-o doing set up n new mark of forty-four miles nnd five and three-quarter laps for sixty minutes of riding. But that's not tho half of It. There'll be more later. Kaiser, rated by his competitors a n sprinter scarcely worthy of serious attention, slipped by tho fastest turned out by the bike game and woq tho ."51000-sprint match race with a perfect score. One couldn't say it was tho speed of his legs or his bike that carried him to victory. True enough, the strength of his trim legs had considerable to do with his triumph, but it wns the gray matter nbovo the shoulders that mninlv was responsible for his win nnd enlarged banu roll. " , , But to get bnek to IloiMl The Long Islander not only broke tho hour record, but probably would have cracked tho fifty-hour figures had it not been for n puncture on the last mile. Just as Itrferee Jack lloden pulled his gun for the last six laps, Bedell's front wheel wobbled, his tire hissed it was the only hiss of the eve ningand went flat. IIo took a chance on doing n hop, Step and jump on his neck as he Mowed down to leap off his" wheel, grab another and get away on the restart. lie lost nothing in the way of dlstnncc, for every rider was allowed four laps to change bikes for n puncture, but he lost enough in time to prevent him from getting n now mark for the half-century. However, that meant nothing. He got one record nnd a championship. That was enough. Tho stop watch uliowed he did the fifty miles in 1 hour, 7 minutes 41 l!-5 seconds. nEDELL teas not the only record performer. Pete MJ Mocslopi, tho champion of Holland, who teas lilted as one of Kaiser's Harry's, not Wilhclm's victims, rode one lap in JO 2-o seconds, tchtch is one fifth of a second under the mark set by Kaiser a week ago. Champion Carman Dethroned BEDELL copped the American title with the old cham pion, Clarence Curman, in tho grind. Carman was forced to cult, but it wasn't his fault. He drew Johnny Schlee ni a pacemaker and did well until Schick's .motor went bad. George Chapman also had trouble. He had first choice of ail tho wind-shield-rs nnd picked Norman Anderson. There was nothing wrons with Anderson's motor, for ha later led Bedell to victory, but his chain broke on the fifteenth mile and the scat on his second By ROBERT W. MAWVELLi Sport Editor at (he livcnlne I'ubllo Irfsltrr bike insisted on rising to a point. He withdrew after tho seventeenth mile. The race was scarcely under way before Carman shot out to the lead nud It looked like a repeater for tho 1010 champion. Carman turned in 13 minutes 35 U-5 seconds for the first ten miles. Then Schlce's c .gino started to give nn exhibition of miss and out and Carman was forced to the rear. George Wiley, with tho peerless Jimmy Hunter shielding him from the wind, shot to the front. Bedell in the meantime found himself pacing Eddie Stclti instead of being paced by the Bostonlan star. As soon ns Anderson was relieved of dragging "Hard luck" Chapman over the boards, Stein dipped out nnd Anderson picked up the ultimate winner. Bedell was leading at tho end of forty miles, which were covered in KJ:21 1-G, nnd the timers and Judges kept their eyes glued on the riders as they hoped and watched for a new record. The hour mark was passed as Bedell wns within n quarter of a lap of forty -five miles. This surpassed the veteran's old record of forty-four nnd a half miles, made nt l'olnt Breeze earlier in the season. The crowd monncd ns Bedell was seen to wobble at the start of the last long mile because of his puncture, but it wns only n matter of minutes before he was mounted on another bike nnd nway to complete tho six laps. The veteran was given a great hand as tho time and record was announced. EJVXTER brought Wiley into secoi.d place, five laps behind liedclt and Eddie Haot paced Percy Lawrence into third money, ten lap bthind the tcln tier. Kaiser's Perfect Average THE sprint match race was run in four heats nnd with three riders in each heat. Every competitor was in three heats and the winner wns decided on iwints. first place counting five, second three and third two. Kaiser landed the honors In every race in which lie performed, thus gaining a perfect average. Moeskops, with one first, one second and a third, took second money with ten points nnd Willie Spencer, tho Canadian champion, who won the $1000 race last j car, was third with two seconds nnd a third. Alfred Coulett wns fourth. It was a revenge race for Kaiser, who earlier in the season was trimmed by Spencer. The Canadian hns asked for a return matcn with the New Yorker nnd has been placed in a match with his rival for tomorrow night. In addition there will be n team match race of thirty-five miles between Clarence Carman nnd George Colombatto and Frnnk Corry and George Chapman. THE Drome won many new friends last night, for among tho spectators were tcvcral who never before had seen the riders on the new track. Among these wero George F. Pawling, Herman Meyer nnd Charles Meehls, Jr., who were under the guidance of Jimmy C'arolan nnd Bob Moore, Bob Rhoad and Frank Webster, who traveled from Chestnut Hill to view the proceeding Ithoad is tho father of Rodney Rhoad, tho former Central Bark oursman and football player, who now is u member of the Lehigh gridiron squad. George Morgan, the South Philadelphia fan, took par ticular interest in the amateur handicap. His excitement was so marked as Jake Ozlek pedaled to a win in the simon-pure event that his blond mustache started to sag in the middle and droop at the ends until aid was ad ministered in the form of wax support.

One bet of IslO,- Armour Tops Botter thnn either was ranked Tom Armour, who wns the, real favorite abroad to win the BritMi champion ship, and who did beat Tolley in the French championship. Lord Chnrles Hope, the fourth mem ber of the British delegation here, Is another top-notch amateur abroad, and the question arises whether one of the-e four sterling p'ayers will not wade through the American field again. Somehow, in the dazzling list of our own talent this jear. the Britons' en try has not excited all the Interest and nnxietv it apparently deserves. They are onlv n sidelight in the brilliant field. With not a single important nbsentec throughout the amateur talent of nil countries, the American championship will have all the car-mark3 of. and hould actually carry the nmatcur championship of the world. WetliiTotl Good Prospect If Armour can bent Tolley, we would personally like to see Wethered in ac tion before making nny prediction on the chances of the Britons. Bob GnrdniT was said, by all who saw the British finals at Muirfield, to havo "thrown away" his chance ot beating Tolley there and winning the British title by his putting. In America we have about five players who could beat Gardner fairly consistently. Tolley is of the Herron type, a great, plump young giant of the ltnks, hitting a powerful! ball and playing n masterful game throughout, but not by any means unbeatable Tom Armour is one of the best ilresed plaers wo have seen and as Handsome as wuv uuiuc i v....... ... the national championship, he wuh a Kymphon Light blue outing shirt with a dark blue tie and vivid blue stockings made a neat combination for his ath letic form, jet black hair nnd wcll tnnned. nne features. But his game lacks a punch and de cisiveness which finished him far down .,.i ,iwi nnt furnish much of a compari son with Bobby Jones or Chick Kvijns who were both up among urn prize win ners of the fastest field that ever com peted in our open.

But you will likely find the best nn swer in a tale of two pitchers. These two pitchers are Slim Salleo and Red Fnbcr. Last year Faber won something llko thrco or four ball games. He wns al most as much help ns one of the steel girders supporting n grandstand roof. But early this season, when the Sox were not counted on becauso their mor ale was supposed to bo badly warped and Cicotte's effectiveness was supposed to be crimped by the removal of the shine ball, Mr. Faber steps in again. Where ho won three or four games in 1010 he has already turned in nineteen victories for the current year He has won more games than Kerr, as many as Williams and within one of CIcotte s mark. In the opposite sector consider the case of the Beds. Last year Slim Sal lee, tho left-handed sheriff, turned In twenty-one victories for the Bed cause. So far this season Salleo has checked in precisely fivo victories. Tho big def icit from last year is sufficient In itself to cause a terrific slump. Moron's Uphill Fight IX ndditlon to Sallcc, botli Eller and Fisher skidded from last year's heights, and the wonder is that "Sir Patrick has done as well as ho has. When three of your fivo leading pitch ers become ensconced upon the greased chute in one campaign it is no light task to keep your ninchine properly geared. i 'Where three Red pitchers headed the pnrade last year, now Rcuthcr, the best of the Reds, is as far down as eighth among the main winners.

It will be the year's leading international exhibit on this side of the Atlantic, second in its broad scope only to the Olympic games. CHARLEY MORAX is about ready to trade the blue shirt of an um pire for the gray sweater of a college coach.

Tho Three Best EACH fan hns his favorite pitcher, but if one'enn name a better trio thnn Alexander, Bagby nnd Shocker on the 10110 rating he will havo to discover a new brand of dope. These three have done the best pitch ing of tho year. Bagby heads the Un but Shocker is only n half-breadth back' nnd that working with a ball club out of tho race. Alexander is tho only National Leaguer who has turned in moro than twenty victories. The Ncbroskan had hones of rounding up thirty conqneeUj this season, but the chances ore that b won't.
