Angeles and eight hourc 60 make the rest of the course Its win or bust this year." he said. My running time to the river on the trial trip was only seventeen hours. and guess we can make the same time in the race. There may be one or two cars in the race that are faster than the Studebaker. but they are better adapted to track racing than to such a course as we just came over. They won't last half the distance. l do not fear the fast ones as much as l do the others that are built for rough work"
 only one car was passed on tine road. and that was Duro. headed for Phoenix The Duro is not in the race. but was purchased in Los An gels by a Phoenix man and is be- ing driven over the road It was passed near Dos Palmos. where it was laid up for n time with broken gear.
 Word was received that the Ford had made a second start for Phoe- nix and is now at Ehrenburg. The Ford went as far as the river on it's first trip. and then turned back, but will come through this time Ham lin, in the Franklin, and Fenner. in his Black Bess." reached the river and turned back from there. Both of them know the road pretty well from the river on.
 Three of the cars now in were ] shipped back this morning. They are the Elmore. Doris and Studebaker. The Franklin. driven by the Pennsyl- vania men. is now on the road back, having started yesterday morning. One more car was entered Sunday. It is the Columbia, entered by Birely & Young. the state agents for that car It is the Columbia roadster type. a car that is not to be sneeZed at in this race It is the tenth entry. The lists closed yesterday at noon The motorists now in town seem to think that there are plenty of cars now in the race, each additional en- tryS reducing somewhat their chances of winning. Bosbyshell and Latham both said there are enough cars in the race to raise a dust from the coast all the way to Phoenix. Each of them intimated. however. that he would not get any of the dust, as he would be in front; but he felt sorry for those immediately behind him.
 It is probable that some change will have to be made in the method of classifying the cars for the fair races. The classification at present is that cars costing s9.000 and under shall copete in a fifty-mile event. and those costing s3.001 and over in similar event This would put all of the cars but Fenner's White Steam CT and the Franklin in the cheaper class. Eight cars on the track at the spectators, but bit hazardous for the motorists.
 The complete list of entries up to date is as follows:
 Franklin Greyhound H)-Entered by Ralph Hamlin; driven by Hamlin. Guy Irwin and c. s. Carris.
 Ford-Entered by Standard Motor company.
 EImore-Entered by Elmore Motor company; driven by D. B. Rose and c. F. Smith.

 The race will start from the Hollen- beck hotel, Los Angeles. Nov. 6. at 10 pm. The cars will be started out fif- teen minutes apart. Thus the last car will leave at 12:15 am. and have plenty of time to reach Ehrenburg the same night. A telegram from J. s. Mitchell to District Attorney Bullard yesterday announced the closing of the entries. It also stated that Fenner and Shettler would not name their cars till November 3.
