practice for the Clrjuid Pruso race to 'be
run November $0, and tho Vanderbllt
cup race with the Tledomann trophy and
the Savannah Challenge cup to be run
November 27. over the famous Grand
Prise course, haa developed the fact that
the great 'yellow-bonneted Marmon
squadron of racing cars Is depended upon
to uphold the honor of America against
the foreigners the Hens and Flat teams.
Other American racing teams are en

have shown supeilor speed qualities and

Challenge trophy last year, second fin
isher In the M10 Vanderbllt, fifth In the
600-mile race at Indianapolis this yoar;
and Cyrus Patschke, holder of the major
ity of the twenty-four reuprds made In
this country, and relief driver for Hay
Harroun, who won the great race at the
Indianapolis speedway Decoration day.
The extra drivers on the Marmon squad
who will be called upon In coso the reg
ulars are incapacitated are Joe Nlkrent,
the Paclflo coast star pilot, and Bruce
Xeene, One of the winners at Santa Mon
ica last October, when he sot a new class

speedway' champion - for. two years, Is
manager of the team, but has retired
from active drlvlnc. The entire Marmon
crew Is camped near Savannah on the
course and Is ready for the two great
speed battles.
