Only Week Remains
For Boys 10 Enter
Soap Box Derby
More Than 500 Have
Already Registered
For 1889 Contest
By ROBERT A. ERWIN.

With one week to 60 before the
field is closed, more than 500 boys
from every part of Greater Wash

The pre-Derby campaign now
heads into the last roundup" of
boys 10 to Is years old inclusive
Six days remain in which to register
for the races to be held on July g.
The entry list will be closed next
Saturday night
This is the last call" Derby Di-
rector o. c. Holleran said last night.
Eve are still convinced that scores
of boys are building coaster racers
without having signed up for the
Derby. They must remember they
cannot compete unless they register
and next Saturday night is the
deadline.
Boys who are interested in the
Derby but haven't started building
still have three weeks or more to do
the job, so it is far from being too
late to sign Mr.. Holleran con-
tinued. 1T will be three weeks from
the closing of entries until Derby
day, but most of the week preceding
the races will be devoted to inspec-
ton and finishing touches"

mother, father or other escort, all
expenses paid by The Star, and a
