AUTO RACES TO -BE
PULLED OFF
AS SCHEDULED
Definite decision as to the ac
tion to bo taken by the mayor and
city council regarding tho holding
of the auto races on the La no Ou!c
park Saturday as planned by pro
motors, will bo mado this evening
at the regular meeting of the city
council, George Lott, of Tacoma,
one of the promoters, will appear
before the council and explain just
what precautions aro belny ar
ranged for which will prevent a
recurrence of the tragedy which
marred the races laat Labor day
when a 11 year old boy was in
stantly killed when struck by a
speeding machine as he attempted
to crois the track.
The state fair board in meeting
Saturday let it bo known that it
would be willing that tho track
should be used for the races as
planned, provided all duo precau
tions are taken to keep spectators
off the track, according to Mayor
John Glesy.
"If Mr. Lott this evening as- .
suros tho council that there will
be onouRh men provided to keep '
spectators off tho track, tho coun-
cil ond myself will consent to the
holding of the races," Mr. Glesy
said. "I have refused, however, to '
assume the responsibility of tha
policing of tho track, but will be
prepared to use police power to
atop the races If It Is seen that th
lives of spectators aro being jeapar
dlzed."
It Is understood tnat 14 depu
ties have been employed to corns
hero from Portland Among somo
of the requirements that will be
rigidly enforced will be that no
spectators be allowed inside tho
track oval and that - the deputies
pay strict attention to &xv a or
rather than coach their favor
drivers as was tho case last yea
Although tho fair grounds ar
within tho city limits, tho property
belongs to tho stnto and brings up
question of authority which is
being left to the decision ot the
city attorney. One way in which
proposed races might be averted,
It is said, is to require that a per
mit be taken from the office of the
city recordor.
are rightfully Interested in the
proceedings. It would necessarily
take a great deal of time to choose
jury especially at this hot sea-
eon ot tho year.
We have considered a change
of venue from this county.
"It seems plain that it would be
difficult to have a fair trial hera
becav&e of the intense feeling by
the crime, but in my practice of
37 years as a lawyer in Chicago,
I have asked but one change ot '
venue- and that was at the advice
ot nry client and against my own
convictions. Morever, the faeta In
this caso are as well known out
side ot Cook county and outside of
Illinois as they are in Chicago.
"It is our intention merely to
see that these two defendants aro
surely incarcerated for the rest ot
thoir lives," Darrow said. "There
fore; I move to withdraw the plea
of not guilty and to enter pleas ot
guilty for both defendants."
