a week until the next meet, when the
owner of this prize will defend this

gram.
The last meet given at Ascot de-
Veloped considerable rivalry and has
resulted in offers OF wagers and chal-
lenges. This should add greatly to the
interest of the coming meet, as the RI
valry between drivers and owners of
cars has been greatly increased by the
series of races given by the Los Ange-
les Motor Racing association. The man.
agement is making an effort to secure
an expert to oil the stretches of the
track in front of the grand stand, and
it this proves practical the entire track
will be made entirely dustless and do
away with the one disagreeable feature
OF track racing.
The owners of the following cars
have signified their intention of enter
ing: Corbin, Isotta, Palmer-Singer,
Winton, six-cylinder Comet and Chad
wick. The Howard Motor Car company
has agreed to enter the Buick In case
returns from Phoenix in good shape
II. T. Brown Motor Car company tele-
phoned the San Francisco agent of the
Knox car. the car which competed at
the Portola road race, and if satisfac-
tory arrangements can be made this
car will be seen in action at Los Ange-
les for the first time. The Lee Motor
Car company has stripped down a 1910
Cadillac, and If a competent driver can
be secured will enter the fifty and 150
mile races.
Leavitt promises the Renault if the
car arrives in time for the meet. I'm
mediately after the conclusion of the
October meet Leon II. Shelter prom
ised the entry of his six-cylinder Kis-
selkar which is now in Phoenix. The
local agent of the Patterson car says
he will enter and Bert Lathams M. F..
the Doris, Durocar Pennsylvania and
Pullman are all available and will enter
If the cars are in good shape after the
dash across the desert. P. A. Renton
is thinking seriously of showing the
Los Angeles public the Matheson six in
action
This long list of cars should result in
the best meet seen here for many days,
and should provide large list of start
ers for each event.
