DEMAf MIES SPEED MOTOR CARS MUST TRAVEL FAST ER AT INDIANAPOLIS. j Experts Believe 500 Mile Race Record of 1911 Will Ee Broken at Speed way Next Memorial Cay. Late in the year of 1910 j-iien the announcement of the first 500-mile International Sweepstakes at the Indianapolis .Motor Speedway was made the motoring world sized up the proposition of giving $25,000 in prizes and a race of 500 miles lir length; and after two or three preliminary gasps and a mental note that the promoters of such an event either had more than the ordinary amount of nerve or had overstepped themselves, decided that it might be a pretty good thing to see after aH. So it came about that the first 500-mile International Sweepstakes on Decoration Day, May 30 1911, drew the greatest crowd of motoring fans ever assembled in any one enclosure to witness any sort of an automobile contest. The question in the mind of the public as to how many manufacturers would dare to attempt a contest of this kind was answered readily when forty-six starters were named for the long race. The other question as to whether or not spectating would bq attracted to such an event was answered when about ninety thousand people filed through the gates on the day of the race. Indianapolis nevei saw so many strange faces within its I gates on any previous occasion. The owners of the Speedway, in | view of the fact that the first race was so successful, decided that a second 500-mile race, and probably n.ore afterward, would be the proper thing to offer their patrons. Public opinion was sounded thoroughly and bore out the idea of the Speedway management In fact public opinion was unanimously in favor of another long race I so the public shaped largely the pro--1 gram at the Motor Speedway next i Memorial But the second event had to be different than the first and greater, because the average American demands something new every time. It seemed almost impossible to improve upon many conditions of the first race, but it finally was decided to increase the (.purse to $50,000, giving the winner *20.000 instead of SIO,OOO as last year Greater speed was demanded, and every car which is entered for the second race shows even better speed possibilities than those which com peted in the first. For the second 500mile race, every car which enters most make a full lap of the Speedway track at the rate of seventy-five miles, last year this speed was required only over a quarter of a mile straightaway Last year forty cars started, but 'it was deemed advisable, both from the standpoint of promoting a high speed contest and minimizing t'ne element of danger, to allow but thirty cars to compete in the second race. This means that with thirty ears on the track travelling at the rate of seven-ty-five miles per hour, one car will pass every point is the track on an average of every four seconds. It is believed that a contest of this nature will prove even more interesting than that of last year because the spectators will be able to single out the cars in which they are interested at all 1 times and note the individual performance of the various cars without being subjected lu the strain of constant alertness. Despite the fact that these conditions have been irnpoF.ee! upon the manufacturers, it is certain at the present time that the full field O s thirty starters will be entered by May 1. It is estimated by various experts and racing drivers that the speed of this race will be at least one mile per hour faster than that of the last race. Kay Harroun, who wen the last 500-mile race, has been credited with the statement that the speed would not be greater, if as great. The majority, however, take issue with Harroun and seem to believe, that the old record will be beaten badly. I

Thirty-four square miles of floot I space in one hotel is what visitors to I the second annual 500-mile International Sweepstakes race will find when they go to the Indianapolis Motor , Speedway next Memorial Day, May 30. I Indianapolis is being formed into a i monster hostelry to care for the 100,000 visitors expected here to wit- , ■ ness the world's greatest motor contest. and thousands of the best private homes of the Hoosier capital are being merged into one great lodging house for the motorist^who will come from i other parts of the country. The Speedway has organized a de- , partment known as the "Room Bui reau" which is listing the rooms and arranging them in the same manner i as a hatel keeps records of its accommodations and guests. Thousands of i rooms have already been obtained for ; the nights of May 29 and May 30, and reservations are being made through I the Speedway by spectators who will i come from every stafe. , The Indianapolis hotel keepers in a recent meeting arranged to co-operate with the Speedway management and to provide every person with accomi modaticns, whether in their hotels or I in ifrivate homes. Every hotel office ■ wlllj be a branch of the Speedway buII reau and will have rooms assigned to I it from the main office at Speedway headquarters It is estimated that the full 100.000 visitors can be accommodated easily in this manner. The city government of Indianapolis will also work to give aid to the visitI ing throngs. Police will be assigned as guides to show the visitors to theit apartments and scores of messengers will be engaged in addition to help in i housing the city's guests. A system I has been arranged at the Speedway . so that every visitor who makes request for reservation in advance will i be advised before he starts for Indianapolis just where~he will be located. Eiling systems have proved efficient in this part of the task, and duplicated ! cards are furnished to the visitors and the owners of the hom<i in which they will be accommodated. Full directions fur reaching their assigned rooms are furnished at the same time It is believed this will relieve the congestion which was attendant upon handling the vast crowd last year. In 19H hundreds arrived at the last minute and failed to get the best ac- ‘ commodations so the task of doing away with his unpleasant feature has been started three months before the date of the race. Those who are intending to witness the race should communicate with some of the Indianapolis hotels or with the Speedway room bureau as soon as possible so that they the best the city offers. The advance seat sale for the race indicates that tin crowd this year will surpass that of last year. The seating capacity at the Speedway is more j than 50,000. and about 10,000 seats have been reserved already. There are sixteen entries in for the race, with tentative entries ,of fourteen more. The field is to be limited to thirty starters.
