While in Savannah recently attend
ing the Vanderbilt and Grand Prize

mept that he desired reinstatement
as a registered RACING driver. He said
further, that he believed many were
In favor If he would agree tdpcast of

was told that his case would be CON

When the article Announcing a
probable match race between Old
field and Burman was called to his
attention, Carl G. FIhser, president Of
the company which owns the Indian
apolis motor speedway, said Such a
race on the. motor speedway is inn
possible for. several fsasons. First,
we would NOT allow oldfield upon the
track, no matter when or how he was
reinstated, as he has decrted the rae
ing sport ever since he was outlawed
and his very attempt at reinstatement
proves his insincerity and his ques-
tionabre methods.
Second, it has always been the poll
icy of the speedway to give It's spec
tators a race meeting of the highest
possible standard. We never have
adopted the circps-riding, hippodromc
methods of taking money fromr the
public and giving little or nothing in
return. For that reason alone, ii
would be impossible for oldfield to
put on his kind of show and enjoy
public appreciation at the speedway.

necessary. Barney oldfield would be
a poor factor, as has been proved in
