Within the next two weeks* this list
will be unnounced, however, and «the
work of securing entries will begin.
Already virtually all the space for ex

representing some 7(>-odd cars, have se
cured space, averaging 625 square feet
each, and will exhibit as fine cars as
have ever been seen at a local show.
The Mardl Gras race meets In New

the presence of great stars, such us
Lewis Strang. Ralph DePalma. George
Robertson, Barney Oldfield, Robert
Hurman, Louts Chevrolet, Caleb Bragg,
Ben Kerscher and Mrs. Joan Jewton

exception to that rule. Already many
have signified their Intentions of en

promise to develop into stars will be
on hand.
Lewis Strang Is to make his debut
with the Case cars at this meet. He
will have two other drivers with him,
and he promises to jump Into the lime
light as surely as he first shot forth

FOR BIG RACE
Indianapolis. Nov. 26.—The unusual

facturers in the proposed 500-mile race to
be held upon tbe Imiianapolis Motor Speed
way. May 27, 1911, haa caused ths official*

The early announcement of the big race
lost famous makers have already started
work upon cars which will competo for ths
925,000 in gold offered for the first ten fin
ishers In the long rind of 500 miles.
In a letter to the Speedway management
MscElwe* explains that unusual interest la
being shown In motor raring by. the Euro
pean manufacturers. Aside from the small
car or voitnrettes there here been no con
tests of any significance In Europe for ths
last few years. Thi* dearth of speed compe
tition was due to the makers of tho larger
cars signing agreement to withdraw from th*
expensive sport.
The success of the light car battles, how-
ever, and the increasing popularity of speed
carnivals both in Europe and America have
sounded the death knell of the old agreement
apparently and Europe is anticipating a big
race at home in 1911. For this reason they
are more than willing to .build apeed demons
to compete in the Speedway Internatio
Sweepstakes and other American battles

This race is open' to car* of 600 cubic

is required to show a sneed of 75 miles

to cancel the contest unless 80 entries are
