ORMSBY TO DRIVE
OPEL CAR IN RACE
Joe Dawson Tries Out the
White Entry on Indiana
polls Track.

Indianapolis speedway officials re-
ceived an announcement this morning
from the Opel Import company of New
York stating that the German Opel car
entered in the five-hundred- mile race
would be driven by Len Ormsby,
veteran eastern driver Ormsby is not
classed among the well known pilots
of this section of the country, but has
been in the motor car racing game for
a number of years. His drivers license
number is thirty-nine- He has driven
in numerous twenty-four hour and mile
track events in the east.
The Opel announcement also gave the
specifications of the car entered. The
racer is a four-cylinder car with a pis-
ton displacement of 452 cubic inches
and will be one of the smaller cars in
the race. 1t has bore of Az inches
and stroke of SIS inches. The car is
owned by Irving c. stern of New York
City.
Joe Dawson, the young Indianapolis
pilot, who was in Cleveland yesterday
comforting with officials of the White
Motor Car company in regard to driv-
ing the White six" entry in the big
race. was trying out the car at the
speedway this morning. He covered
some fast clips in getting a line on the
speed qualities of the racer. Dawson
is understood to have offers from both
j the White and the National people, but
J so far has signed a contract with
neither company. National officials are
! still silent regarding the identity OF
/ the driver for the third car the compa
ny has entered in the race An an
nouncement of the driver for the Masor
entry probably will be Forthcoming
within the next few days.

needed for the visitors expected at tn
