compete for the prize. BY important
races ] mean the Vanderbilt Cup thS

The Grand Prize. All the recognized
speedway races also will count IN the

"My idea Is 20 have each winner re
ceive ten points, the second man nine
and so on down the line until the hrst
ten 70 finish receive credits. Al the
end Of the year the points are to be
fotalled and the twelve drivers having
