The big question now before the

spicuous spectator?
Another question: Will the Euro
pean maker be sufficiently recovered
from the war to participate in the big
American sporting event to.any con-
siderable extent? This latter question
seems pretty well answered by the an
nouncement that Jules Goux has al
ready signed an entry blank and the
Sunbeam factory of Wolverhampton,
England, has nominated two cars with

by the assurance of the Speedway
