Races and then some more races; thrills with some more thrills thrown in for good measure and a Ford stock car race-call it whatever you please Is the lineup for this afternoons motor program at the state fair grounds. Nearly four hours of continuous en- tertainment is offered entertainment that will surpass anything of it's kind ever offered an Arizona public.
 And for fear that automobile enthu- siasts will tire of the music from the exhaust pipes of the big. high powered race cars, Promoter Ed. A. Thilenius has scheduled a musical program, just 10 break the monotony, if such d thing could possibly squeeze into an after noon so full of thrills and spectacles.
 The greatest difficulty being eXperi- cnced by Mir. Thlenius is in attempt ing to figure out how 1t is going to be possible to run off all the events sched- uled in a single afternoon. With nine feature attractions, Promoter Thilenius will work under a considerable handi- cap in having only one-mile track ill which to stage his program. He should be equipped with paraphernalia on the scale of a three-ring circus where he could have a number of attractions go- ing at the same time.
 With the program arranged as at present, however, it is believed that the various features will be run off without a hitch. At least, there will be no long waits between events. Otherwise the program would continue over pe- riod of days and would assume an aspect similar to a seven- day bike race
 Although one mile bicycle race has been scheduled, Mir. Thilenius has giver assurance that it will not last more than 10 minutes. In the event that the riders attempt to stage one of those long drawn out affairs, they will be
