It was won Ray Harroun. who1 still comes to aee every contest here but watches them from the grand stand. There Is new tdterest automobile racing this year. I cant place my finger on the reason. But tha new Interest is there.

Forty six ears were nominated for the race this The number exceeds any year since before the war. Only thirty three cars are permitted to start to the contest one car lor each 400 feet of This is in accord with' the rulings of the American Automobile Assoclatln. the Actor's Equity and Judge Landls or, Win Hays of the great gasoline sport. This means that to the miallfylng trials which begin Saturday, May 25, and continue through the 23th, that thirteen cars win be eliminated. To roallfy it la necessary to send a car around the two and one half mile course four times or ten miles at aa average of ninety miles an hour.

But this ninety miles an hour rule doesn't mean a thing. Only the fastest thirty three cars wul face the starter. And the slowest one of the pack win have to go between 103 104 miles an hour to even bring up the rear at the atart of the event. The fastest ear of an gets the pole and the other cars line up to eleven rowa of three to "accordance with the speed made during the qualifying day.

on the Indianapolis track, had the pole last year. He stands to fair way of having it' again this year although there win be. some shoving in the stretches before this Is finally, decided, 1 1 When a driver is fast and daring he is known to automobile racing as the possessor of a "heavy foot," the intimation being that he carries a hunk of lead to the shoe that' 8 TO RACE WHEN MO pf v' DEACON.

for the last three years the: masculine flappers of speed have been shoving the old timers to the rear. In the late Frank Lockhart came here as an exercise boy and when Peter Krels became HI drove his car to victory. The race to 1927 saw Oeorge Souders, a Purdue undergraduate, come to the 'big time from the dusty half mile tracks of Texas and. ride out the B00 miles a winner. Last year Louis Meyer, a twenty five year old driver, came to the track looking for any kind of an old rattletrap to drive so that he might get some experience for future When he couldnt get a car to drive he found one he could buy.

But he didnt, have the cash. So he got his paL Alden Sampson, another twenty five year old laddie, to hock a garage and auto agency to Tippecanoe City, to buy the car.
