Auto Races On
Next Sunday at
Alam0riO Park

More automobile races are sche-
duled for Alamorio Park next Sun
day. The last races werq not en-
tirely satisfactory, because of a
smash-up which put four cars out
of the running at the start of the
race.
For this reason the speed demons
are unusually anxious to put on Il
good card Sunday. All the entries
will be from Imperial Valley and
the old rivalry between Ell Centre,
Brawley and Westmorland divers
will undoubtedly be in evidence.
There VIII be two 10 mile elimi-
nation races and 25 mile race for
a division of the gate receipts.
