Increasing popularity Of automobile
contests is given by the tentative list
Of dates issued by the American Auto
mobile association. Close TO a hun
dred events are on schedule as pre-
pared by the contest board. While It
is doubtful II all the contests mention
cd are held, 1t appears certain that
major portion win be put through to
completion. and. allowing for a certain
detection and some few additions to
the list, It Is evident that the present
year win witness more and greater
auto contests than In any previous
season since the adoption of the motor
car as pleasure and commercial ye-
hicle.
In road racing alone there are al
ready fourteen events tabulated for
sanction. These include all the stand
ard cup contests or former years. 1t
Is, however. in the circular track and
motordrome contests that the surpris-
ing features OF the 1910 motor racing
schedule is met. There are no less
than fofty-fve dates mentioned In the
tabulation, and there is a possibility
Of more being added twenty-five re
liability contests are mentioned for
possible sanction, embracing nearly
every section OF the country. Fifteen
hill climbs are grouped under the
classification which refers to climbing.

sued BY the contest board previous to
