The men entered for the bicycle races this afternoon are among the fastest riders in America, and as the track is the best of condition some of the existing records surely ought to be broken. Some of the best men who will ride are W. F. Murphy, N. Y. A. C., the 2 mile American champion; Hoyland Smith, N. Y. A. C., the 1-2 mile American safety champion; A. B. Rich, N. Y. A. C., holder of the 5 mile world's record; A. A. Zimmerman, N. Y. A. C., who has twice beaten W. W. Windle, who holds the world's mile record, and M. Scott, of the Sydenham A. C., the one mile champion of Rhode Island. H. B. Hallock of Amherst is a very good man, and the Harvard men in the two mile intercollegiate handicap will have to ride very fast to beat him. Rich, Murphy and Zimmerman have been in Cambridge for a day or two trying the track and getting used to it.
