AUTO RACES LOOK GOOD
ENTRIES FOR SATURDAY EVENT
AT HAML1NE TRACK MUST BE
IN TOMORROW.

Entries for the automobile races at
the Hamline track next Saturday will
close at midnight tomorrow. This is alb
solutely necessary in order that the
classification committee may complete
its work in time for the issuance of a
printed program. ar,
So far, the cha llenge races seem to
be, the more popular. The only diff
Guilty is to find suitable cars to match
with those entered as challengers. This
work is in the hands of a special com.
mittee Of the CLUB which hopes to have
everybody paired off by tomorrow
night. ..,..
Entries for the classification events
are, still in the hands Of the dealers
and committee members who have re.
ceived them, so that it is impossible at
this time to say how many cars will
start. It is certain; however, that a
good field will be entered and that the
races will be the best ever seen on the
Hamline track.
