viii Take Part in Parade.

Automobile events will occupy prom
inent part on the racing program Of
the Louisiana State Fair this year.
These events will take place on the
last two days of the Fair, which opens
November and runs ten days.
Heretofore there has been only one
day of automobile sport, and that has
been exclusively by amateurs. This
year professionals are going to parttc-
ipate Some f1attering prizes are to %
offered them, and information receiY-
ed at headquarters of the Fair asso-
citation leads to abe conclusion that
there will be several of the best dr=v-
ers in the country on hand. Barney
Oldfield who gave an exhibition OF
sensational driving here several
months ago when the track was mud
dy, has been considering the question
of taking part ne events here and
the association would not be surprised
to hear positively any cay that his
plans will permit him to be on hand,
There is no more daring automobile
driver alive than OldfieId and his ap-
pearance would be well worth trip
to the Fair.
In addition to Oldfield, other profes.
SIGNALS are figuring on coming here,
and some of them will be on hand.
Their driving promises to be very SEN
sational, for the track will be in tip
top shape The horse racing during
the five days previous will put it in
packed condition and this will aid the
autoists.
Many. of the local amateur drivers
will engage in the events the past two
days, competing for premiums that the
association is to award. Outside of
Shreveport owners of autos are plan
ming to visit the Fair and some of them
will no doubt take part in the races

pleasure of the last two days of the
track amusements. Sam w. Mason
