break until after the race started
spectators poured through the turn

one OF the greatest throngs that ever
witnessed an automobile race in this
country and 1t was estimated that the
gate receipts would total more than 4
quarter of million dollars. Betting on
all phases Of the contest was exceed
ingly brisk. Not a few bets that the

the frst car to quit the race, giving UP
the struggle on the seventh lap when
his gasoline tank and connecting rod
were broken. At the end of twenty
laps De Palma stu led. having main

iievlng II certain that the record for
the race would surely fall
The second to leave the race was the
Lexington driven by Harry Knight. who
was forced out by engine trouble. A
little later Bruce-Brown withdrew his

the running.
At the end OF forty miles De Palma
