PROGRAM FOR
M0TORDROME
Entrance Fee of ST for Any Car
in Any Event Is an In
nOVati0n

The motordrome management are out
with their program of events for No
vember 26 and q; also December 20
and 26 and as the classes are so we'll
arranged it should be possible for every
car to win something. Another COM
mendable feature is the nominal en-
trance fee of 81 to any of the events,
as the management figures that the
dealers are put to enough expense in
preparing their cars for racing, and
that it is not fair to ask them for big
entrance fees. The public should be
enough interested in the excellent pro-
grams to patronize the meeting liber-
ally.
Twelve events are scheduled for the
two days in November, and the two
principal features are the two-hour
Derby championship and the 25mile
free-for-al. The motordrome record
for the two-hour race is 147 miles, or
an average of 731s miles an hour, and
was made by Harroun last spring. The
25-mile free-for-all is the only big
similar event which has not been given
at the motordrome, and it is hoped to
establish a record better than that of
the Indianapolis course, which now
holds this record. The two pursuit
races on the November program should
bring out the greatest speed of car
as there is no iockeying for position.
is a big national championship event,
and is sure to attract some of the most
famous drivers and cars. The first
prize is the Los Angeles motordrome
trophy and $1,000. Second prize, $500;
third prize, 5000. The trophy is to be
the property of the entrant who wins
it three times. The race will start on
Christmas day at 2:30 p. M and finish
December 26 at 4:30 p. M, allowing for
a two-hour intermission on the morn
ing of December 26 for the purpose of
repairs to the track, as everything will
be done to insure the safety of the
cars. Trophies emblematic of 24-hour
championships in piston displacement
divisions will be given to winners in
the following divisions: 161 to 230, 291
