doubtedly he punched closer than any
classic ever run in this country. AS a re-

stunts and plenty of excitement for the
spectators

markable showing at Indianapolis in the
last 500-mle race. has been nominated by

Bentel. which has been named the Cali

cial, Jim Parsons driving, and a fourth
Maxwell entry, with Harry Grant at the
wheel, have also been entered. Dario
Resta, the English crack, will pilot one of
the Peugeots. and Jack Mccarthy will

eral post entries will be made.
Will Not Get Trophy.
Considerable discussion has been
h .rd lately regarding the contin-
gency which might arise should De
Palma win the Vanderbilt cup for the
third time. In 1912 and 1914 De Pal
ma won the cup with the Mercedes car
owned by E. ]. Schroeder and the gen
eral impression has been that if the
cup was won by the same driver three
times with the same make of car the
trophy would become De Palma's per-
manent property. However, this is not
the case, and should De Palma win the
cup again it win not wipe the Wander
bilt Cup classic out Of existence, but the
event will continue to be a perpetual
challenge trophy affair.
