ATICE POTEST.

As I have hofurs pointed ont, the oxígencies of modern pyelo rading has called forth re- prosivo measurea from the National Cyclists' Union, which body has for some time bean ondeavouring to rid the path of many abuses which have gradually crept in. Cycle munn facturers and tyre manufaulagers also, for the matter of that, find it profitable to subsidise in some way or another the speedier riders, and are willing to pay large nuúis for records" for pair. poses of advertisement. This being so, the Union ofcials hare sees it to dobar ayolista connected in any way with the trails from competing in amateur events. Wo this find that very many of our best riders are “ prodsinud" by the Union, it consequence of this connection, amongst them being F. J. Osmond. who is now one of the proprietors of a cyola manufacturing bestuess. No one has over doubted the bane fides of the old champion, and yat, according to the ruling of the N.Ö.Uho cannot under any circumstances bo classed amongst the states. To the hy mind such decisions must appear somewhat absurd, especially d, as it is rumoured by people likely to know, Omagad is now rid- ing better than ever, and is capable of boating China's wonderful times. Osmond himself is acid to be determined on the point that intees he can ride and be fined amateur velist ho prefers not to xide at all. We must leave the mattor to bu fought out by thio oyeling journals,

There are few things connected. with out-door sperts which cause fuck a rorul sion of fooling in the breasts of all straightfor ward non as the painted idol of broken time." Had the Northern Union come openly before the public with a scheme for professionalism pare and simplo, I holiove there are picaty of people who, whilst regretting the necessity of it, would have urged forbearance, and int time it might have begu possible to engender a kindler feeling towards the professional amongst the Rugby Union leaders. But this miserable sub- teringo, this transparent ovusion, this palpable pretext must disgust all who believe in honesty of purpose. If the cessities of the limus de- and thus the whole of our sporte and pastimos shall be azaled over to those who wok prou mincy gain, and cave nothing for the old world- chivalry and love of conquest..if the games of our boyhood evo to go to the profesional in obedience to the demands of the "erond," so be it. We meet bow our hoube to the storm, and sigh for kappier times. I have mad with some little regret certain remarks which have ap. pored concerning the sickly sentimentalism" which has been introduced by opponents of the new organisation? Aro we, then, to luva no sentiment in our outdoor lives? Art our boys, fresh from school maybe, to be hunded over body and son in their playtime to the man at the "gate?" le the monotonous click of tho turnstile to dominate everything worth wate ing? It will be a sorry day for Englund if it i comes to this. I am no lover of namby-pam- byism, I have assisted at too many glove com petitions to be sickoned attuo sight of å few spota of blou, and have liyad too long in the whirl of a big city to be easily shocked by a street "sceno," but I hope I bave not lost overy atom of sentiment, and theirfòre I am" baxions that our games 'should be conductail openly and honestly and that the youth who cherishes a love for ourpastimes, and enter into a contest out of sheer love for it, shall not be elbowed out altogether by managers" whose -sele concern is the jingle of coin and big gates, It is with real pleasure I note that another month is to be given for repentance, it I may not it in that way. This may or may not bring over a few of the waverors. In the meantinio, I should dearly love to see a few good men and tino take up the cause of aconteur football for Rugby Unior players in the disaffected counties. There is much good work to be done, för I cum- nut at present believe that the Rower of York. shire's and Lancashire's youth is as sordid as some would have us believe.
