!. SPEED|EST IN RACE

The ninth annual international
sweepstakes race at Indianapolis was
a triumph for eight-cylinder cars for
the first time in the history Of the ia.
nous sOO-milS classic. -
When Tommy Milton sent the eight
cylindered Frontenac creation Of Louis
Chevrolet across the finish for a new
track average for cars Of 1873 cubic
inches piston displacement 1t was the
first time that an eight-cylinder car
had ever won at the famous speed
way. and the second time that any car
Of more than four cylinders had ever
received the checkered nag.
"F0urs" Have Been Sictors.
Except for the first race in 1911,
when Ray Harroun drove to victory in
a six-cylinder Marmon. the great con-
test always has been won by cars OF
Ifour-cylinder design. ..
This year was a complete triumph
for "e:ghts." but one' four-Percy
Ford's Frontenac-being placed. while
the other eight positions we're taken
By eight-cylinder speedsters. In both
preme. Ralph de Palma's Goodyear
equipped Ballot had the speed of any
car on the track. as was shown by the
unheard-of average speed OF s3.3
miles an hour he maintained for $50
miles until he was forced out. while
Tommy MfltonS "eight" had the
stamina-and won.
- May Revolufionise Design.
Foreign designers. with the excep-
tfon of Ballot In France. favor the
four-cylinder car as easier of adjust
ment and maintenance at efficiency
during a race, but the battle for su
premacy will be fought to a conclu-
sion at the grand prix at LIE Mans in
July, when American designed "eights"
will lock horns with European-de-
signed "fours."
The result Of this race will have con-
siderable influence on future designs
Of racing cars, and will determine
whether they are to be 'fours" or
"eights."
