Here they were from all over the
state. All roofing, all shouting. all
pulling strongly for the Tulsa entry,
and mover for moment ceased their
energetic boosting until Boiling was
counted out.
Boiling In Rncc.
Speaking OF Boiling and his Rich.
ards special, II IL pleasant to relate
that at one time he had a splendid
chance to finish nth and on more
than one occasion proved "A real
contender. Early trouble, however,
handicapped his running and with
loss Of many laps, his chances grew
dim. In this connection It can he
said that John Boiling handled him
self in real professional style and
moro experienced competitors.
Tulsa and all oklahoma wanted
Boiling to win. They cheered his
every appearance, and encouraged
him to make faster time, lie re-
sponded for all his car was worth,
and as stated above " trouble had
not resulted in several instances, at
least fifth place was his.
Great things can be looked for
when Boiling drives again. lie need
never he ashamed OF his performance
at India napolis, and II he decides TO
enter next years races he will be
rcckoned with at the finish. THIS
seems to be tho opinion OF the know
ing ones, not only from his own
state but the wise boys who follow
the speed contests.
Mrs. Boiling was visitor In the
stand and by her smiles and CHEEKY
words assisted Johnny to hustle
over the brick pavtment OF tho
Speedway. Orville Thomas OF Tulsa
likewise was n staunch booster Tor
Rolling and was seen making his
way to the pits on several occasions
Getting back to the monster
crowds In the stands, 1t was pc
culiar to note that everybody was
there. Rich man, poor man, beg
gar man, and | suppose many
thieves but I did not hear OF any
thievery going on. Society was out
en- masso Fashions were paraded
through the stands and In the boxes
Introductions were forgotten, every
body talked to everybody. The gen
tlemau from Mississippi slapped the
hack of tn" man from California,
while the lady from Iowa cast n
slanting evclot at the young fellow
from oregon. And so on, II was a
great day and one never TO be for-
gotten.
Several conventions were held In
indianapolis The Marmon dealers
from all over America and Canada
were on hand They were splendidly
entertained by the Marmon officials
not only at the races, but nj the
hotels and at the clubs.
The LAFAYETTE factory, too, had
n convention on. and many dealers
came to discuss ways and means.
Entertainment f a high order was
their portion. George CASTOR OF the
Lafayette CASTOR company, with
headquarters at Dallas, Texas, was
spokesman OF a large party and
made things pleasant for all his as
sociates. whom he took to Indiana
with him. A. 9 Burke, the manager
| OF the Tulsa branch, assisted nobly
The Stutz people also ontertainct
thcir dealers, likewise tn" National
Paige and Monroe companies.
W C. Norris OF the W. G.. Nor
ris Motor Sales company, Of Okla
homa, distributors for the Marlnon
was sketched while seated In n box
and we suppose that his ''picter'
! vii, appear In one OF the newspapers
of Indianapolis.
After the conventions the dealer,
left either for home or for the east

land, Detroit and Chicago. w, G.
Norris motored to Washington
thence to Pennsylvania on vaca
tion jaunt. Lee Smith hustled TO De
troit to arrange the driving back OF
many Maxwels and Chalmers. G
