Next Sunday to Be Crammed Full of
A half dozen races for harness and
. running "horses haa been sandwiched
in between other attractions next Sun
day afternoon at the fair grounds
when the big motorcycle endurance
races occur. In addition to the at-
tractions listed yesterday, there will be
a 2:30, (three heats), a 2:30 trot, and
a free for all. It is probable that
Delmas will be entered in the free
(for all and this insures fast time in
r that race. For the ponies, there will
be a half mile, a three-eighths and
a quarter mile dash. Then there is
to be a balloon ascension too. .-. .
Workmen are cleaning off the track
so that it will be in first class condi
tion for the track events. The pro
gram will be so full that every minute
will have to be utilized, and arrange
ments to crowd one event after the
other on the track are going on,
During the next day or two flags
and signboards will be posted along
the course between here and Baker for
warning to teams that are passing
through defiles and canyons. Where-
ever the view of the road is obscured
a sign will be hung up warning traf
fic to keep close watch for the motor
cycle racers and practically an open
road will be accorded the racers. The
entries continue to come in, and the
money is piling up to assume big pro.
portions. Tonight is the last day for
entries and a fine bunch of starters
is assured.
