Largest In the World to Be
Constructed In Chicago.
Quarter Mile Circuit at COlise-
um 30 Feet Wide.
BANKING IS IA FEET.
To Be Rushed For Races Aug
uSt rs.
Ends of Track Not Semicircles
But Rather Elipses.

Chicago, July 27-The National Cycle
Exhibition company has awarded the
contract for the largest indoor track in
the world, to be constructed at the Col
iseum for the races of August rs and
other events.
Aside from its mammoth proportions,
it will be remarkable in that it is to be
built in sections, so that after each ser
les of races it may be taken up and
stored until again required. The new
track will be a quarter-mile circuit,
twenty feet wide on the back stretch
and thirty on the home stretch. The
straights will be about 400 feet long
the minimum radius of curves about IS
feet. Unlike most tracks, the ends will
not be true semicircles, but incline to-
ward an elipsis.
1t is a well understood fact that the
greater the radius the less banking is
required On all tracks in existence,
though the radius at the commence
ment of the turn is the same as al the
center, the banking is of necessity
few inches only. running UP until at the
center it reaches several feet. By
changing this so that at the commence
ment the radius is greater the sudden
rising of the banking will be partly
banking will be fourteen feet five
inches.
Before completing the plans Arcflf-
tect Schmidt visited the famous Foun-
tain Ferry track at Louisville and the
Chester park track in Cincinnati. The
contractors are already at work, and
expect to have their work ready within
a week. After that time competitors
will be permitted to train upon it until
the first days races.
The company has been given addi-
tiOnal dates for September 4 and by
the L. A. ". racing board.
