further insure the safety of drivers it
has also been ordained that all steering

while aluminium steering wheels will
not be permitted. Frame hangers and
steering mechanism shall be subject

tor speedway mechanical engineer. and

proving that they are physically fit to
engage in such a contest and that they
are entirely free from any serious ner-
vous manifestations or other disorders
which might prove a handicap. Physi-
cal conditions justifying the refusal OF
such a certificate will disbar drivers
from the race.
