AUTOS TAKE HEAVY TOLL (Continued Prom First Page) determination to win. At the ISO miles. Bruce-Brown had set a new rec ord, re card less of classification. His time was 131:1!. as arainst Dawson's old mark ot 1:01:0. Accidents Come Quickly. When llarroun took the lead In the lsoth mile the race took form and then the crowd's Interest was height ened and divided between the contest and catastrophes that wer momen tarily Impending. Tha cars began to cast their tires, burned out by the tierce grind over the Speedway's brick pavement. Steer ing gears began to give way. Directly In front of the grandstand. Jo Jagers burger s Caaa car got away from him and switched back and form across the track. Wood, the mechanician, leaned out and fell, and the car passed over him.

Many Thousands Acclaim Winner. la the latter part of the race acci dents ceased and tha spectators be come composed, and concentrated atten tion upon the belief that Harronn was winning. Fhouta of encouragement rose In a steady crescendo, and when he swopt Into the home stretch on his last lap and Starter Wagner gave him the finishing flag, the apeedway en closure rang with applause. llarroun. followed by a delighted mob. drove Into the Infield. "Give me something to eat.- he said, as he dragged hla atlffened legs from under the steerlnir gear of hla "Wasp." A close study of th complot score card for the race shows plainly that not more than eight of tbe 40 starters had a show at any time during; tba race. The eight were: Itay llarroun. Marmon. Ilalph Mulford. Loxler. Iavld Bruce-Brown. Plat. Spencer Wlshart, Mercedes. Kalph DePalma. Simplex. Fred Belcher, Knox. John Altken, National. Teddy Tetxlaff. Loxler.

But In between these last three points In the contest Bruce-Brown and Mul ford see-sawed for second place, until not even the Judges were certain until the last lap who had taken tha second position. Both Bruce-Brown and Mnlford were at all stages of the race dangerous con tenders for the lead and one delay of more than tlre-cbanglng time by Har roun would bave meant certain loss of the contest. Toward the latter part of the race the three leaders were little more than SO seconds apart. All three handled tnelr cars in masterly fash Ion. Mutford lost considerable time through tire trouble, and Brown was off the track more times than Har roun. Ten Men Win Prizes.
