I would not advise Welch-Dunlops. If you cannot get plain-faced D unlops, wait till you can, or get some other good tyre. I have not seen the ’96 Dunlop. “ Enquirer” (Otaki). —Zimmerman, will certainly not race in New Zealand—unless he should again visit these parts, which I do not think at all probable. He left suddenly for ’Frisco by the last mail boat.
