 Twenty-Five or thirty cars are ex. pected to participate in the race from Fl Paso 10 Phoenix this fall. Chairman Rinehart will start on a pathfinding trip soon over the road to mark the Dad spots and have them repaired The total prize money for the partici- pating cars should be at least $500. Concerning the race the Fl Paso Her ald of Saturday says:
 Twenty-Five or thirty cars win sure ly start from Fl Paso in the race to the Phoenix fair next october. This is an estimate gathered from the actual entries already made. though the rules are not even out The rules are. now in the hands Of George P. Bullard, rep resentatiye Of the American Autom- bile association i'll Arizona, and whe:; the purses are raised by the various Arizona towns. which will be in a few days. he will send the rules on to New York for approval of the association The blanks will be printed and formal entries may be made.
 The entry fee will be S1OO per car and if 9 cars are entered, this will mean $25OO added to the prize money, or a total of S35, GOO as Fl Paso's con. trbution. About $500 will be used by the club as expense money and the rest will go to the car owners If Fl Paso has S3OOO. and it doubtless will have that much to offer. the total purse for the race will be at least S5500. as Bisbse. Douglas. TTcson ana other towns along the route will easily raise S150O and Phoenix gives SlOOV. Chairman R. Fl. Rnehart and Sec retary c. A. Martin, of the tours com mittee of the Fl Paso Automobile club, will take pathfnding car over the route in short time-some time in August or early in September.
