That the pick of Pacific Coast mo
torcycle riders will register and take
part in the big annual La Grande
Baker and return motorcycle run
next Saturday and Sunday, is the
word that has come to the local man
agement since the Federation of
American Motorcyclists has sanc
tioned the meet here. Commencing
early next week the entries will come
in from Seattle, Spokane, Portland,
and other bigger cities, as well as
from nearby towns. The prospects
for entries for track events has nec
essitated the La Grande motor club
extending the time to two days that
the preliminaries may be run off be
fore Sunday, the mam day.
Horsepower Is Reduced.
- With the sanction for the meeting
the F. A. M. required the club here to
restrict the track events to four h.
p. machines rather than seven, there
by .reducing the danger to a minimum.
It will be a test of machines and not
of riding.
Well Known Referee to "Boss."
G. C. Marks, of Portland, has been
employed to referee the meet, and hj
comes with the F. A. M. sanction.
He will "boss" the entire meet. In
both the track and endurance run
striped stock alone will be used, and
careful rules have been drafted that
there may be no misunderstanding,
Blaze the Course Sunday. -
Tomorrow the La . Grande Motor
club will blaze the course to Baker
and return. WeatherJ being at all
favorable, about two dozen machines
will leave the city hall at 10 o'clock
and will ride over the course to
Baker and return. They will set up
signs, secure judges and in ' other
ways look after affairs. At Baker
they will meet the Baker motor fans
who are interested in the sport. Some
automobiles will go along to carry
signs etc.
Everything points to a remarkably
successful meet.' and that, it will be
the mecca for hundreds of people is
believed certain. It is expected the
2.500-eanacltv e-rand stand will be
hixprl. and the course will be freely
dotted, as it was last year, wnn in
tprested spectators.
The program is to be carried out as
announced, with the addition of a free
