AUTO FANS
PREPARING.
FOR GREAT
ROAD RACE.

Tonopah automobile enthusiasts are
becoming greatly interested in the
coming state auto race of about 1000
miles which is scheduled to take
Mace on May 2S, 20 and 30, by
reason of the fact that this town IS
m the route and will be a division
point.
IN order to complete plans for the
urt Tonopah is to take in the great
mad event a meeting of the local ex,
ecutiye committee of the Nevada
Highway association will be held to-
night at the office of S. R. Moore,
at which time committees will be
appointed and details worked out
concerning minor matters.
Tonopah has been asked to con
tribute $500 for the contest, and it
was stated officially this morning
that the required sum has practical
ly been subscribed
Two Tonopah boys in the persons
Of Roy Craig and Al Lorenzo will
contest for the prizes to be offered
The first prize has previously been
announced as 800, but it was stat
ed today that this amount would no
doubt be substantially increased Mr..
Craig will drive a Hudson and Mr..
Lorenzo will steer a Hupmobile.
An entrance fee of $50 is provid
Cd and entries can be made by ap-
plying to s. R. Moore Of Tonopah, or
by addressing Carmen J. Wilkie,
secretary Of the Nevada Highway
commission.
The course Of the race, which is
to be an endurance contest for stock
cars, will have its origin at Reno,
thence to LoVelock, Winnemucca,
Wells, Ely, Tonopah, Nina, Yering-
ton, through Wilson's Canyon to Wei
lington, and thence to Carson City
and on to Reno.
The race, under the rules Of the
Nevada Highway association, must
be confined entirely to roads in this
state, and while there may be a
slight deviation of the course decided
upon later, it is a foregone conclu-
sion that very little change will be
made
Already there are 80 entries to
the coming contest, and every driv-
er, unless some accident occurs to
put him out of the contest, will stop
overnight in Tonopah and also take
gas and overhaul his car.
