Speedway will be for a 820,000 purse
and a gold trophy offered by Harry
S. Harkness, president of the speed-
way. Tile drivers eligible to compete
are the speedway winners of the year.
This makes a field which includes Git
Anderson, Dario Rests. Ralph Mulford,
Ralph De Pahlla, Eddie Rickenbacker
and Grover ‘Rucksiell.
The speedway race at Sheepshead
was a well managed event from the
point of view of the general public,
particularly so as it was a “first of-
tencef.’ it is safe to say everyukinl: will

the press facilities no doubt will be
better, as the newspaper represents:

they did on Saturday. TheIItochnical
