FIFTY MEMBERS


Will the League of American

Wheel-men Soon Have in Muncie.

Local Counsel Charles B. Kirk, assisted by other enthusiastic bicycle riders are engaged securing names to become members of the League of American Wheelmen, and they are succeeding admirably. It is the intention to send in 50 names, and over half of that number hare been secured after one day's canvass.

The list of names already secured is follows: Robert Williams, Goley Wil­liamson, K. G. Sample, Robbin [sic] Robin Heminggray [sic] Hemingray, Frank Everett, V. C. Palmer, Edgar Johnson, C. H. Carson, Burt Needham, E. F. Printy, M. G. Branch, Will H. Boyle, T. A. Frazier, F. L Wachtell, O. H. Gray, John T. Walterhouse, L. M. Garver, Carl Umbarger, Arthur R. Kelley, George Harter, Ed. Widermuth, J. E. Owen, Robert W. Thompson, Frank Snell, Carl Storer, Dan Young, Deo Banta, Edward Zuber, Burt Lewis, Willis Kemper, Ed Hudson, Eugene Sallon.

The league has over 100,000 members in the United States and several thous­and in the Indiana division. The membership fee is $2 and the dues but $1 a year. The association furnishes each member with maps of different states that show every dirt and gravel road, and the members receive a copy of a monthly bicycle paper, free of charge, that is quite interesting to riders. Members recognize one another on the road as brothers and are given special rates at one certain hotel in any city.

It is a good thing and Muncie will be in it.
