GRAND RAPIDS To
OFFER BIC STAKES

GRAND RAPIDS. Mich, April 80
Entries for the early closing stakes of
Grand Rapids meeting were recently
announced for the coming season, and
are of great interest to horsemen.
While the Furniture City Driving club
which manages the meeting, is not in
membership with the grand circuit, yet
the meeting will be the first of the
year in which a $4,000 stake for trot-
ters and one of $4,000 for PAGERS are
given.
The list of nominators indicates that
with very few exceptions every big
line driver will be in Grand Rapids,
such as Geers, Murphy, Mcdonald,
Macy, Lasell, Dear, Walter Cox, Nc
Mahan, w. j. Andrews, Millard San
ders, L. V. Shuler, John L. Dodge and
several others, with the best candidates
in their respective training strings, or,
in other words, the list shows the very
best of the year, ana the trotters and
PAGERS which win be in the great
events from the start to the finish of
the racing year.
While there are no classes in the
Grand Rapids early closing card for
green horses, yet many horses un-
known to fame are entered, and as a
great majority of them are products
of mile track circuits and naturally
the DICK lGOIIl lIl6 LNO-ldIDeISs lliGlI
contest against well known big liners
makes the card doubly interesting.
The first entry of the year also shows
that everywhere the prospects for big
entries in all early closing events, as
well as class races, are very bright.
The $4,000 stake has a total of twenty
three entries, more than the nomina-
tiOns to the Detroit classic, the NJ. &
NJ. stake, which looks right encourag-
ing for the balance of the season.
The entries for the faster classes,
such as the 2:06 pace, naturally are not
many, yet the fact that outside of the
big stake all others have received an
average entry of fifteen for each class,
is a sure indication that racing ma
terial large in number and fine in
quality is promised for the entire sea-
son.
Grand Rapids management has
promised to racing men a total of $751;,
900 in stakes and purses, and their lib
erality is therefore we'll appreciated by
owners and drivers, with d good entry
list.
The management owns one of the
finest mile tracks in the west, and with
purses equal in value to the best
grand circuit meeting and an entry list
which includes the country's best rae
ing prospects, the big meeting in Mich
igan will be of as much Importance to
the seasons harness sport as many
opening meetings of former years in
Detroit.

AUTO CLUB IS To HAVE
CONTROL OF BOAT RACES
European National Motor Boat
Club Enters Agreement with
American Organization

NEW YORK, April 30.-The follow
ing statement is made by the Auto
mobile Club of America:
European national motor boat clubs
have entered into an agreement with
the Automobile Club of America by
which this club is put in control of
motor boat racing of an international
character in American waters and of
American entries in foreign races.
The Automobile Club of America in
vited the collaboration of the Motor
Boat Club of America and the Larch-
mont Yacht club, and a year ago each
of these clubs appointed from its mem
bers two who became, with two mem
bers of the Automobile club a commit
tee of six to undertake the response
blities of the Auto club under its
foreign agreement, and all of the clubs
recognize the authority of the Auto
mobile club in the instrument of as
sociations.
New York is to have a novel motor
boat show during the month of May.
Those exhibitions, which have become
annual events in Boston, Buffalo and
Chicago, as well as in New York. have
always been held in large exhibition
buildings, but the one now under way
is to be held where a motor boat show
should logically be held, on the water.
The use of the pier on the Hudson
river has been secured by the Motor
Boat and Water Carnival association,
which will conduct a motor boat show
from May p to %.
The location of this motor boat
show on the water makes possible
another feature-that of racing and
tests. Arrangements are almost COM
pleted for several days of racing, and
nearly all of the Hudson river clubs are
to participate and several fast boats
are promised from Buffalo, Cleveland
and Boston.

Following the recent announcement
of the consolidation of the Studebakef
and EMF automobile interests by d.
p. Morgan & Co. is the report that the
Studebaker company has closed the
largest contract for automobiles that
has ever been placed during the his
tory of the industry, having secured a
contract from Gimbel Bros of Phila-
delphia to install the Studebaler de-
livery wagons and trucks for the de-
partment store at Gimbel square on
Broadway, between Thirty second and
Thirty-third streets.
"The placing of this large contract
at this time for electric delivery wag-
ons has an unusual sifiniticance," says
Chester n. Weaver, the local Stude-
baker representative. 1.-The Gimbel
firm has decided to make its New
York branch a modern, convenient and
attractive department store. The
company has taken advantage of the
experience of other modern stores
throughout the country in the selec-
ton of time and labor-SaVing devices
and the introduction of special facili-
ties for the convenience of it's custom
ers. After a year of investigating and
testing out various types of motor We
hicles for the prompt, economical and
clean delivery of merchandise, electric
vehicles in general were finally decided
upon and the Studebaker electrics in
particular.
This is the first time in the history
of merchandising that a large depart
ment store has abandoned entirely the
use of horses for it's transfer and de-
livery services. The decision of Gim-
bel Bros. in favor of the electrics,
after much exhaustive research into
the claims of the different types of
motor transportation is an indication
of the proved value of the electric for
delivery service"

Lytle's own reasons for his selection
of the American for the coming racing
season are interesting.
when l began to look about for
connection for the 1910 seasons" says
Lytle. II had decided that the car I
would drive would be the American If
satisfactory arrangements could be
made, In arriving at this decision
was governed by two things. One of
these is the fact that l have never
encountered a car which l would con-
slider the mechanical superior of the
American. The other is the American
underslung frame.
mo one ever heard of an American
turning turtle, simply because the un-
derslung frame swings the weight or
fine car beneath the axles and so much
closer to the ground than is found in
any other type of construction. At Sa-
vannah, several years ago. the Ameri-
can threw one of the tires clean off
the wheel-but nothing happened.
In the Fairmount park races last
wear the American driver attempted
to take a sharp turn at speed little
too high, with the result that both
tires were brown. Again nothing hap
nened. save that the mechanic was
rolled about twenty feet, over the
ground and was somewhat bruised"
