World motor paced champion Bobby Walthour returned to Atlanta after months in Europe where he defeated top rivals and earned honors. He says he will likely race in Madison Square Garden next May and June, and will compete in Atlanta's Piedmont Park Christmas race if weather permits. Powers offered a full season contract, but Walthour plans to ride mainly in America with Moran and Prince not in town. He brought two double cylinder motor cycles from France for use in the race.
