STOCK CAR is OUT.
Is Being Withdrawn from the Big Car
Races I'm East.

Is Being Withdrawn from the Big Car
Races I'm East.
"Stock car racing is dying out. The
reason is that the public wants SEN
sational STUFF like the big Indianapolis
500 mile race, which was the greatest
speedway event ever held More people
saw it than any other sporting event
within an enclosure. 1t was not a
stock car race, but WAS for special rae
ing vechines having a piston dtsplace-
ment of 600 cubic inches or under, COM
ing under the American Automobile
associations designation of Glass c.
The last Vanderbilt Cup race was also
q Glass c, and it was the most sensa-
bilt Cup races. At nearly all the small
meets the programs are filled with
Class and free-for-all events, there be-
ing few stock car contests.
Obviously the best kind OF automo-
bile racing is to be obtained from spe-
cial racing machines rather than from
stock cars. The grand prize contest
which is a free-for- provides the
beat road racing in the world But CLASS
c is big enough for all general racing
purposes, as it's piston displac cement of
900 cubic inches allows for everything
EXCEPT freaks like the "Blitzen Benz,
which is only used for beach records
and short distance speedway records.
Lots of manufacturers do not like to
be limited TO strictly stock car features
III thCAA Ic1SAA7 1i4eaNAlA14NS. ACS want
to try out new things on the racers,
in order to test their practicability for
subsequent Incorporation in stock mod
els. If all the makers stuck to stock
car racing it would be different, but
with the Glass c cars doing such SEN
sational things in the way of speed
and competition, the stock car affairs
look tame in comparison. OF course
there always will be stock cars in the
big races. Some makers have stock
cars that can hold their own with
special racing machines of other man
ufacturers, but racing events limited
to stock cars alone are growing fewer
and will soon almost disappear. 1t is
significant that for the big race at FL
gin, ILL.,, oil August 26, only eight ma
chimes have been entered for the stock
car division of heavyweights, as against
As Class c entries at Indianapolis.

SHOWED THE EAsTERNERs.
Western Trip Appealed to the Ocean
TO Ocean Tourists.

to Ocean Tourists.
After grinding for almost a week
across the barren state of Wyoming,
encountering road conditions which
were revelation to the fasteners who
are accustomed to improved highways,
the Ocean to Ocean Tourists arrived IN
Salt Lake on Sunday evening, July %.
The last days run into Salt Lake was
from Kemmerer, Wyo., and when the
tourists hit the smooth roadways of
Utah, and coasted for is miles down
the Wasatch mountains, there was a
shout Of Joy.
The tourists had begun to believe
. that there was no such thing as a real
road in the west. The trip to date had
been entirely without mishap and the
fasteners are enjoying themselves inn
rnensely. In spite of the fact that
through Wyoming. they encountered
every form of bad roads, they have UP
to the present time averaged about $50
miles per day and reached Salt Lake on
schedule time.
The journey thus far had been re-
markable for the lack of tire trouble
encountered. Barring a few punctures.
no stops had been made on account of
tires and the last two days through
Wyoming not one of the tires on any
of the 13 cars was even punctured. This
is considered remarkable in that the
tires had already run over 5000 miles.
In Salt Lake one of the United States
Tire company's experts made careful
examination of all the tires and did not
consider it necessary to make a single
replacement for the remainder of the
Journey
Out of total of 81 tires. So have the
original air in them and only one of the
Nobby Treads has been even punctured
on the entire trip.
The drivers, practically all Of them
more or less inexperienced, had their
own troubles getting through the
Wyoming desert and the fact that they
piloted their cars into Salt Lake in per-
feet condition, was a source of great
satisfaction TO everybody.
