RACING CARS
HERE TOMORROW
COURSE is .215 MILES LONG AND
OVER ONE OF THE MOST TRY
ING ROADS In NORTHWEST.
Thirteen Cars Should Arrive From
Spokane About Ten Tomorrow ON
Their Way to lewiston.

| Between ten and twelve O'Clock to
morrow forenoon a string of racing
cars will pass through Moscow, OF
one of the hardest road races eve
pulled off in America. The course Il
215 miles in length, beginning an(
ending at Walla Walla, and includes
about 100 miles of the most trying

canyon are included in the course
Thirteen cars will leave Spokane al
| ltive-minute intervals, beginning at Z
a. m. tomorrow morning, and in case
the roads do not become worse, they
should begin to make Moscow by 10
o'clock. From here they will go to
Lewiston, and to Walla Walla by way
of Dayton. All cities except Dayton
have raised their restrictions on
speed, but the Dayton limit being 25
miles per hour, its failure to do so is
not considered a serious handicap.
A committee was appointed at the
meeting of the chamber of commerce
today to arrange for policing the roads
and crossings close to and within the
city, and every precaution will be
taken to prevent accident.
Ed Cruver has been designated by
the race committee of the Walla Walla
Frontier Days organization as checker
for Moscow, and he has given out the
following list of entries. Hunt Potter,
well known in Moscow, is mechanician
for Welch driving Buick; and a
nephew of Chris Anderson is. mech
anician on the Ford driven by Miller.

Land plaster does not make soils
