Handles National In Every Speedway Race Z w . l w* U! 1 •"• ADON HERR. One of the youngest drivers who wih contest in the second annual ■'"D mile International Sweepstakes is Don Herr who will be at the wheel of one of the big blue-bonneted National racing cars. Herr will be a teammate of Wilcox and Merz, who have been on the National racing team for the past three years and have been the winners of mote events than any other combination of cars and pilots.

r Definite confirmation of the rumor 3 that “Wild Hob” Burman, the worlds speed king, will be aeeu at the wheel ~ of a Cutting car in the second annual 1 svo-mile International Sweepstakes race, has been received at the ludian- _ apolis Motor Speedway in the form of an entry of the car and the nomina- , tlon of Eurman as driver. For some t time it has been understood that the speed monarch would pilot a Cutting machine, but no definite entry had been made until recently. 1 Burman is probably more in the public eye than any other racing ’ driver, because of his succession to i the throne of speed king and his holding of the world’s straightaway reci ords made at Daytona, Florida. He s has been a contender in most of the great motor events- in the past four [ or five years and has always figured more or less prominently. The entry of the Cutting car. with Burman named as driver, means that he will devote the next two months of his time to preparing the car and testing it out over the motor speedway . course. Hb probably will do very little exhibition driving or mile track racing in the meantime. Harry Goetz, who was the mechaniian for Ray Harroun, winner of the last 500-mile race in a Marmon car, has gone with Burman and is helping him in the building of his special racing car. Goetz is one of the most skilled mechanicians in the country and Burman looks (o him to aid materially in the success of his next appearance in a big race. The car which Burman will drive is a 1912 special model, weighing 2,300 pounds, which is 300 pounds above the minimum weight allowedjn the race. The motor has four cylinders with a bore of five and seven thirty-secouds inches, and a piston stroke of seven inches, giving a piston displacement of 597.9 cubic inches. It is believed that the motor vfill develop about one ( hundred horse- power, and it probably will be about the largest in the race. The motor is specially built to come just within the six hundred cubic inch limit set upon the contest by the Speedway management. The other entries to the race are two Stutz cars, to be driven by Gil Anderson and Leu Zengle, with Billy i Knipp’er as relief: two Nationals with ; Don Herr, Howard Wilcox and Charley ; Merz named as drivers; two Case cars with Harvey Herrick and Louis Disbrow nominated as regular drivers; i two Mercedes cars with Ralph De i Palma and Spencer Wishart at the wheels; one Fiat to be driven byTeddy Tetzlaff: a Simplex with Bert Dingley to drive and Lexington to be piloted by Harry Knight. Ralph Mulford has purchased a sixcylinder Knox which he will drive in the race, although his entry h as nol formally been made. This early field of starters is con sidered the cream of driving and racing talent of the country, and means that the foimer record of 74.61 miles p v r hour established for the 500 miles 1 I is certain to fall in the next Memorial ■ = Day contest. The early seat and hotel reserva- I e tlons which have been made indicate C lhat the crowd will be greater than e that which witnessed last year's event. ! ’ The throng which witnessed the lasl ' u joonr lc race was the largest that ev.-t i (| passed Into any one enclosure to ai- | II tend a sporting tontest of any da- , 11 scription.
