Brocco Team Upheld in Protest
On Lap Regained by 3 Teams
Italian Nearly Gains An?
other Grcuit in Night
Sprints;EggBadly Hurt
By Fred Hawthorn?
A "jam" second in intensity and
thrills only to the memorable one of
Monday night, ln which Maurlce Brocco
and Charles De Ruyter, the Italian
Belgian team, gained a lap on the
field, was started by Freddie Hill, a
veteran "grinder," just after 2 o'clock
yesterday afternoon, in the six-day
bicycle race at Madison Square Garden.
The sprinting la^ted for twenty min?
utes, and at the end of that time Hill
and Kaiser, Goullet and Magin, and
Egg and Madden had gained a lap on
the other rider3 and moved up even
with Brocco and De Rflyter. But, with
the whole Garden in a ferment of ex?
citement, De Ruyter and Brocco left
the track and made a wordy protest
to the judges, claiming that one of the
riders had fallen during the sprinting
and than there had been faulty pick
ups. The judges agreed with them and
the lap was not allowed.
Hill had caught the field by surprise
and flew away into a hundred-yard
lead. He rode until he had increased
tho distance to a quarter of a lap and
was then relieved by Harry Kaiser, his
mate, who took up 'the mad riding for
half a dozen laps, with the field strag
gling a!l around the track in pursuit.
Favorites Set Pace
Goullet and Egg worked themselves
ou: of the pack and clung to Kaiser's
wheel like grim death itself, each man
taking a turn at making the pace, and
quickly the margin waa increased to
half a lap. then three-quarters. Magin
and Madden and Hill again went into
the furious mix-up of sprinting, and
amid a tumult of shrieks from the
spectatdrs they lanped the stragglers,
an ong whom were Brocco and De
Ruyter.
The Bowker brothers had been lapped
twice in the terriffic "jam," it seemed.
and there was a wild bediam of shouts
and howls from the crowd. In the
middle of the outburst De Ruyter and
Brocco left the track and made a
vehement protest to the judges, threat
ening to withdraw from the race if the
lap was credited to Hill and Kaiser,
Goullet and Magin and Egg and Mad
den.
They based th-1 ir protest on the fact
that Lester Bowker had fallen at the
T'.' nty-sixth and Fourth Avenue turn
and that, according to the rules, this
al :a cancelled any lap steal
ng during the sprint. There aiso had
been some bad pick-ups made by the
tuiee teams mentioned above. After a
consultation the judges ruled that the
lap would n>>t be allowed and that
Br icco and De Ruyter were still one
lap to the good. This restored tho
' btatus quo," and things quietcd down
again.
Brocco Trles Again
Last night brought out some of the
most 3tirring scenes in the long history
of the grind. Immediately after the
finish oi the sixth official sprint, about
1C o'clock, Brocco started off on an
other wild jamboree of speed and
opened up a full half lap between him
self and the field.
De Ruyter, his partner, picked him
up beautvfully ard added thirty yards
to the lead before the pack got settled
into its stride and began the stern
chnao. After three miles of riizzy rid
ing, De Ruytar and Brocco were caught
1 y Goullet, Hill and fTpeissens, pacing
in turn, but Arthur S] encer and Pete
Drobach and Tom Bello and Vincent
Madonna were lapped, and are now two
laps behind Brocco and De Ruyter.
During this period of furious sprint
ing Oscar Egg, the most popular man
in the race. came closo to having a
serious accident. As he was rounding
the steep turn opposite the press box
the front wheel of his machinc buckled
up and Egg was catapulted over tho
handlebars, landing on his head.
The Swiss rider slid along for fifteen
re.'t and then rolled over on to the
flat just ns a half dozen other furi
ously sprinting riders came around the
turn. Egg was completely "out" for
fifteen minutes, at the end of which
time he waa carried to his quarters.
He was still in the eare of the Garden
surge^ns near midnight.

Star Athletes in Whitney
Post Meet This Evening
By A. C. Car&gnaro
Tho Frank B. Whitney Post, Ameri?
can Legion, will act as host to many
athletic stars at its annual games. in
the ist Regiment Armory, Newark, this
evening. Champions aro entered in
practically every ona of the twelve
events. There are four "specials"
down for decision.
Egon Erickson, the Bronx "cop," will
make an effort to break Sam Law
rence's record of 8 feet 4V? inches ln
the running high Jump. Opposed to
Erickson will bo John Murphy, Notre
Dame UniverBity, the national outdoor
champion, and Harry Troup, Rutgers
College.
Mike A. Devaney, the Millroae star,
rules the favorite for the two-thirds
of a mile run, in which ho hopes to
surpass Mel Sheflpard'a indoor mark
of 2:44 2-5. Joie Ray may be a last
minute entrant in this contest. He is
cn his way East from Chicago and may
arrivo in time for tha race. The
Whitney 500-yn.rd special flnds an
evenly balanced field.
A novel feature will be the two-mile
team run, with nine combinations en?
tered. Among the teams is that of
Frank Zuna and Nick Gianakopulos,
who engaged in such brilliant duels in
races in Europe while with the A. E.P.
The registration committee will
make an investigation of the charges
which led to the disqualification of
Herman Browser after he had won the
1,000-yard, closed event, at the Post
Offlce Clerks' games last Saturday
night. Max Silver, Mohawk A. C, one
of the inspectors on the turns, re?
ported to the referee that Browser

tional Guard officers will submit affi
davits in behalf of Browser.
Bernie Wefers jr., who strained a
tendon recently, hopes to resume train?
ing the latter part of next week. His
injury is mending rapidly.

The American people are the fairest
traders in the world. They will give anything a fair trial.
And in this manner, many of the products of today
have been built to greatness.
This trait settles all doubts. The
people often discover articles of merit. They likewise
discover the imitations. The merchant who has some?
thing worth while^profits by it. The other chap doesn't.
When they have made the trial, they
know. And they can't really know until they do. That's
why we ask you to try Lord Salisbury. We know
what a superior cigarette it is, hwX.yon don't unless you
have tried it. And you won't know until you do.
A great many people have tried
Lord Salisbury Cigarettes, with the satisfying result
that the sales of 1919 increased 25% over the sales of 1918.
Lord Salisbury is packed in an inexpensive machine
made paper package instead of a cardboard box.
