SIXTEEN CARS ,
TO COMPETE IN
- BIG CASH CLASH
. t
'' - Full Field Will Face Starter in
the Last Motor Derby on
, Boards of East Omaha
'. t Speedway. )
, v v -. .. .
" By FRED S. HUNTER. '
Promptly at 2 o'clock this after
' noon sixteen of the fastest and most
dltring gasoline speed pilots in tlve
. ' country will receive from Starter
Fred Wagner the red flag to start on
their 150-mile dash in the third and
last annual Omaha automobile derby
on the boards of the mile and a quar
ter East Omaha speedway.
That the field of driver who will
face the starter is. one of the classiest
every asembled for an American
speeaway classic is the universal
verdict among the speed enthusiasts
who follow the thrilling game.
Never before have so many evenly
matched cars been entered in a single
race. Last yeas' event in Omaha
was a classic by reason of the closr
jjms of the contest and the thrills
provided, but even that race promises
to be overshadowed by the one which
will be run today.
' Last year Resta, 'De Palma and
Mulford owned cars that were flan
s' ifestly faster than the . remaining
machines entered. But this year one
C -cannot point three cars which have a
distinct advantage over any of the
other machines. f
The two Frontenacs. driven by
Louis Chevrolet and Charlie Kirk-
patrick, have shown the best time in
the qualifying rounds, but their su
periority was not marked. Toe Thom
as, Dave Lewis and Ralph Mulford
were right behind and they only made
'one attempt to qualify. Taking their
privilege of two additional trials any
ne of them might have bettered the
. records established by the rFonte-
nacs. ,
( Occupy First Row.
By reason of their speed "in the
eliminations, the two Frontenacs will
occupy the front row in the starting
positioVand Louis Chevrolet, at the
pole, will pace the cars' around on
the preliminary lap.
Immediately .bejjrfnd the Fronte
nacs will come Joe Thomas in amer
cer and Dave Lewis in a lloskins Spe
cial. Ralph Mulford, in a Hudson, and
t the Miller Special will be in the third
road, while Eddie Hearne. in a Dcu-
senberg and Walter TlaineS in a Mm
cer viTl be in the fourth row. Tom
, Alley's Pan-American and Tommy
' Milton's Deusenberg will be in the
fifth tier, while the sixth tier will be
made up of Billy Taylor in a Hudson
and Baby Pete Henderson in a Deu
, - senberg. s Jerry Mason in an Ogren,
Omar Toft in the Omar Special and
Milt' McBride in an Olspn Special
will bring up the rear.
Two Are Scratched,
Andy Burt's Erbcs Special and Hal
Drinker's 'Brinker Special were
- scratched yesterday. '
, Burt drove a piston rod through his
crankcase and it will be impossible
to repair ( for the race. Brinker failed
to qualify. His eight-cylinder job
could negotiate only eighty-five miles
an hour, owing to a detective mag
neto, while ninety miles an hour is
the required speed. '
, Barney Oldheld, Frank Elliott and
i George liuzane, who were numbered
' among the original entries, did norar
rive. Barney and Elliott could not
come on account of the postponement
of the match race between Oldrield
and De Palma, scheduled -for last
Sunday at Detroit. Buzane jimrhed
his motor tuninsr. it up iTi Chicago. 1
.The 150-mile, event will start at 2
o'clock. This is the championship
v race. It is believe the winner will
maintain a speed of 100 miles an hour,
qt at least, close to that mark. With
1iot weather, which burns up tires, the
time may be a little under the cen
tury mark, but if it is as cool as it was
yesterday alt of the drivers insist the
winner will have to beat 100 to annex
the victory. I ,
The winner should cross the finish
line, therefore, about 3:30, and the
last car should finish within fifteen
minutes afterward. The second race,
tbe- fifty-mile consolation, will start
ten minutes after the finish of the
' main event, it should be over in an
hour. The entire program aliould.be
concluded by S o'clock or shortly
after.
, Three cars qualified during the
practice yesterday. Tom Alley shot
his ran-Americanaround the oval in
44 3-5 seconds, an average of 101 miles
an hour. Andy Burt qualified the
Miller Special in 433-5 seconds, 104
miles an hour. This is the brand new
car Art Cadwell is scheduled to drive.
Milton McBride qualified his Olson
Special in 482-5 second! an average
' of ninety-four, mile an hour.

Now is the time to buy a bottle of
this remedy so as to be prepared in
case: that any one of , your family

of the series by pounding in Jour
runs in the fifth inning, winning by
the score of 5 to 4.

out a bunt and took second on Burg's
single to left. U loole beat out a
bunt. Thompson singled to right
scoring Schick and Burg. Cooney
forced Thompson at second,! but
O'Toole scored on Smith's sacrifice.

contest lasted one hour and forty-two
minutes all the men reported in fairly
good condition. Sergeant Samuefson

The defeated team was expected to

defeat. He asserts a jinx hangs on
