GREENFIELD REPUBLICAN, THURSDAY, APRIL 13, 1911.

Vanderbilt Winner After Big Prlzesv

Harry Grant, twice winner of the Vanderbilt Cup race, who will drive the same Alco car in the 500-mile International Sweepstakes race at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, Memorial Day, May 30.

YOUNG AUTQ DRIVER ENTERS LONG RACE NEXT MAY.

Boy Who Won Many Big Events In Marmon Car Will Try for $25,000 Purse at Indianapolis.

The daring successes of Joe Dawson and the fast-flying Marmon cars in 1810, his first year of motor racing, have inspired the Marmon company to build a special speed craft, which they will launch with the indomitable Joe at the wheel in the $25,000 500-mile International Sweepstakes race on the Indianapolis Motor Speedway May 30. The special car, together with another Marmon, hSs been entered in the long grind.

Dawson, a mere "kid," was the hero of a half-dozen desperate finishes in some of the greatest classics on the 1910 calendar of motor racing events. Making his debut at the May races on the Indianapolis Speedway last year, Joe won several short distance events •that gave him something of a reputation. He was called a youngster of promise, but the critics never dreamed he could more than fulfill those promises in less than another month.

The great speed carnival on the Indianapolis track in July gave Dawson his chance. Hurling the yellow-jack-eted Marmon car onward over the brick surface at a speed that held the throngs spellbound Dawson—the kid— won the 100-mile dash for the Remy Trophy and left a trail of new records behind him.

His name was flashed across the country as a new star within a night. And on the succeeding day came the 200-mile struggle for the magnificent Cobe Cup Trophy. In a bitter duel with "Wild Bob" Burman, Dawson whirled his Marmon to victory at lightning speed, shattering the old marks at one milepost after another. Three seconds separated his speeding Marmon from Burman, who was drivinf with all the reckless courage that gave him the title of "Wild Bab."

The victory in the Cobe Cup race, with bits of tire flying from the thin shoe that threatened to go every second of the cruel last lap, etched the name of Joe Dawson upon the hall of motor fame. His successes came thick and fast then$ and the season ended with Dawson occupying the coveted niche of one big star developed during the season.

In the Vanderbilt Cup race Dawson and his Marmon lost the great contest by a scant few seconds, but Joe stopped for six minutes during the combat when he struck a spectator And thought he had killed him. Absolutely thoughtless about his own safety and with the word, "fear" left iout of his vocabulary, Dawson trembled and broke like a child at the thought of hurting another. When convinced the man he had struck was not killed, Dawson mounted his seat and drove like a wild man. But it was too late. The precious minutes lost could not be regained, and he had to be content with second place and the Donor's Trophy.

At Atlanta In November Dawson again piloted the Marmon to victory In the 100-mile City of Atlanta Trophy land won other shorter events. He climaxed his first season of racing with jhis triumph In the Savannah Challenge Trophy race the day before the Grand Prize. Driving fearlessly and with the true inborn raging instinct, Joe sent his car over the 278 miles without a & top at 'better than sixty miles an hour —the loosest non-stop road race record in the history of the game. I Although the Marmon company had !planned to retire from the sport at the {end of 1910, the combination of the big 500-mile race and Joe's desire to compete for the $25,000 cash prize rewilted In the Nordyke & Marmon Com* pany making two entries. One car is idrlverless ttfhs far and the other Dawison is named to drive. They have! built a special speed creation worthy of the 1910 hero. Long, lean, yellow, light in weight and with the biggest motor ever built by the concern, t-fria new speed demon will take the gun

May 3j) with,thirty-five other great motor jefeations in hot strife for the big of gold*

AUTO MAKERS HEAR OF RACING MONSTERS COMING.

Germans Send Over Master Speed Creations for Competition in 500Mile Race at Indianapolis

Motor Speedway.

Teuton motor makers

America a sensation for tVie 1911 automobile racing season by sending aorose thv Atlantic a speed monster froifi the Daimler Mercedes factory, which has time annihilation reduced to a minimum. This great steel steed carries beneath its hood a motor with 583 cubic inches piston displacement and is the largest Mercedes car ever imported into America.

Spencer Wishart, of Port Chester, N. Y., a young racing pilot who has won many big events in this sama make of car, has purchased the new creation and his entry in the 500-mile International Sweepstakes race at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway to be run on Memorial Day, May 30, was the Arst announcement of the dimensions of the metal mount which he will drive this year. The cylinders have a 5.1inch bere and the pistons a 7.1-inch stroke, showing that the German makers still believe in the speed and endurance possibilities of the long-stroke motor.

The car is light In weight, for it weighs but 2,400 pounds, which is almost down to the minimum for the race, the limit being 2,300 pounds, while the piston displacement of the Speedway classic is placed at 600 cubic inches. Wishart will take t&e big car to the Indianapolis track about the first of May to begin his tuning for the long event. The speed requirement of 75 miles per hour does not worry the young driver, for his car has shown better than 110 mile9 per hour in the German tests.

The car was ordered by the owner and driver when he was in Germany late last year, and several months have been spent in the making. The careful German mechanics build racing cars more slowly than those of any other nation, but when the cars are completed they are certain to run —and run well.

This is the first foreign car to be entered in the long grind, but the Speedway management has been advised that a half dozen of the beat cars manned by foreign drivers will be in line for the start before the close of the entries. Among those who are now planning to come over after the $25,000 purse are Hemery in a Benz, Nazarro and Wagner in Fiats, Lancia and a team mate in Lancia cars, XUgal In a Bayard-Clement, the threecar team of the Lion-Peugot Comapny, while the Metallurgique Company of Belgium will probabty send over a car for an American driver to take through the event.

Herbert Lytle, the dean of American pilots, is after a Napier, while "Wild Bob" Burman Is undecided between a Buick "100" and a Mercedes. If the Cossack of the motor car decides on the Merc'edes the German® will have another monster ready for the event.
