RICHER REWARDS PROPOSED FOR THE WINNERS IN NEXT YEAR'S 500-MILE MOTOR CLASSIQ

WOULD BOOST SPEED PRIZES OVER $150,000 Proposed That Citizens’ Fund Be Increased to SSOO Per Lap. LARGER PURSE LIKELY Allison Intimates Speedway Is Considering Boosting Money for Winners. Drivers in the 1921 300-mile automobile sweepstakes at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway probably will contest for prizes exceeding $150,000. The speed dispensers who clashed in the eighth annual classic Monday and approximately 500 Indianapolis merchants and race enthusiasts gathered at the citizens' lap prize banquet in the Riley room of the Clay pool hotel hist night to run Monday's race over again and plan for the future. HIGHER PRIZE PEAS APPLAUDED. The entire building rang with the applause of the large crowd when it was ■uigested by A. H. Adams, field manager es the lap prixe fund for the last race, and James A. Allison, treasurer and one of the promoters of the speedway, that the total prize money next year be boosted over the $150,000 mark. Mr. Adams' plan was to increase the lap £rize fund next year from $20,000 to 100,000. Following this suggestion came word from Mr. Allison that the speedway directors are considering increasing their purse next year. He did not state anything definite about this Increase, but it is believed that an addition of at least $2b.000 will be tacked up by the directors of the speedtray. Mr. Adams stated that the Indianapolis meedway has brought the name of Indianapolis and Indianapolis business concerns to all four corners of the globe and, realizing this, the business men of the city were so eager to help put the lap prize fund for the last race over the mark, that they oversubscribed the specified total. WOULD SERVE TO BOOST EVERYTHING. The Increased purse would bring Indianapolis business men more to the front ■with the people of the entire world; ■would bring a larger, classier field of drivers here and wonld make the race, which is now the greatest motor event in the world, a better one. The additional lap prize could be awarded two ways. First, according to the old plan, the driver leading each lap jetting $500; second, the driver leading •ach lap would get $250 and the driver making the best time for each lap would receive a like sum. This plan would protect the speedier drivers, who were forced to the pit for repairs Mr. Adams, who represented Mr. George Dickson, father cf the lap prize fund at the meeting, was approached by ■ereral business men after the confab closed and all of them urged the fund Increase. It was suggested that some civic or- j Rnization, the Indianapolis Chamber of j mmerce preferred, take complete j charge of next year's fund and Col. John ; B. Reynolds, general secretary, said that | Be would take the matter up with the board of directors at an early date. WINNER CARRIES BLENTY OF CHECK?. Prizes aggregating $93,550 were awarded the victorious pilots. Gaston Chevrolet, winner of the race, was loaded down With checks running anywhere from SIOO to $20,000. Joe Boyer, the plucky driver whoss ear turned turtle on the north turn, after he and Ralph DePalma had “made" the race, was rewarded by the lap prize fund to the extent of $0,200. Joe had nothing to show for liis spill but a bandaged ear and scratched jaw. Claris Adams, prosecutor of Marlon county, speaking for Mayor Charles W. Jewett, congratulated the drivers, winners and losers on their skill, daring and sportsmanship. Mr. Adams said, in part: “Sport is what makes the world go 'round, and 1 never witnessed a greater sporting event than Monday’s automobile race.” Capt. Eddie Rickenbacher, American •ce, and former race driver, praised all pilots who participated in the event, touching especially on the work of the Chevrolet brothers. He term-1 Ralph DePalma the “greatest driver . vl loser In all the world.” In fact, the crowd was kept busy applauding Louie and Gaston Chevrolet and Ralph DePalma. “RICK” AGAINST GERMAN CARS. Riekenbaeker also stated that he hoped he would not live to see the day that the gates of the Indianapolis speedway are opened for the entrance of a German racer. The Delco Light Company presented Gaston Chevrolet with a check for SIO,OOO CDd went on down the list of winners Who used the Delco ignition system with •mailer checks Barney Oldfield, toastmaster at the banquet, past master at the race game and now a successful tire builder, presented Gaston with a $5,000 ehe-k. Gaston went? through the race using Barney’s tires on his. car and did not ma'st a change. Joe Boyer. Ralph DePalma, Gaston Chevrolet, Rene Thomas, Jean Chasngse and Art Klein were presented with lap prize checks by Col. John B. Reynolds. The speedway prizes were presented by Theodore Myers, general manager. W. F. Bradley. Paris representative of the speedway, was one of the prominent speakers at the evening. He expressed a desire to see the United States, particularly Indianapolis, represented in tie trench grauti pnx next year. Louie Chevrolet responded by saying his Mou roes and Fronteuacs will be there if everything goes smoothly, fcgcpREIGN PILOT? HANDICAPPED. ■BdEMldley also told ..f the difficulties the gjWwigii drivers met while preparing for PVPe Indianapolis race. lie stated that labor strikes and general conditions existing on the other side made their coming here possible only after months of ceaseless labor, lie said that Jules Goux and Rene Thomas averaged only four hours' sleep out of every twenty-four during their last two months in France. When they did sleep, he said, it was in the factory beside their cars. It was announced by speedway authorities last night that, the present style of 183 cubic-inch motors will be used for at least two years to come. The many automobile manufacturers present highly favor this plan. Delaney and Tremaine Stars of Dunn’s Stable Cal Delaney, who defeated Eddie Fitzsimmons recently, ought to be recognized aa one of the leading lightweights, says bis manager, Jimmy Dunn. Delaney has a record that commands respect, having fought such men us Ritchie Mitchell, Valger, Tendler, Pinky Mitchell and at the interallied meet in London a year ago he lost to Johnny Basham, English welterweight champion. Dunn also has another good man under his wing in Carl Tremaine, the bantam who recently knocked out Frankie Mason after a short period of fighting. Mason had previously put up a good battle with Jimmy Wilde, England's might atom, and has stood as one of America's leading flyweights.

Shamrock Is Speedy , Experts Declare as Sloop Takes Spin Lipton’s Cup Entry Makes Impression on First Yankee Trial. By JACK VEIOCK. International News Sports Editor. NEW YORK, June 2. —The Shamrock IV is 4 speedy sloop. Tb's was the verdict today of yachting experts who watched Sir Thomas Linton's emerald green challenger cut the waters of Long Island sound in her first trial spin under racing canvas. The Lipton entry in the international yacht race carried only main sail, jib and stay sail and the spin was taken merely to stretch sails and rigging, but the Shamrock IV slipped tbrougl. tho water at a surprising rate of speed considering the light breeze. The challenger is still a mystery boat, how'erer. Before she was put Into fuo water she made a rather awkward appearance In her cradle with her downpointed bowsprit, rounded stem and squared off stern. Under canvas, however, she presented a trim appearance, and when she spreads her 10.000 feet of sail i:i a fresh breeze it is predicted that she will look and act even better Charles E. Nicholson, her designer, and William R. Bnrton, her skipper, arc confident of this. The American sloops, Yanitie and Resolute, will commence their races to determine the defender off Newport, H. j 1., tomorrow. j Vanitie was toned to Newport Tues- ! day by her tenner. Resolute was soiled tiled to head for the scene of the races todav under her own sails from Bristol, R. I.

•a CONFESSION “Leon, n the Tailor, Admits There Are Occasions When a Competitor Can Undersell Him

I have claimed ip these announcements that I could make a made-to-measure suit for less money than you could buy one ready made. That Is not true today. I know it to be a fact that some retail clothiers are overstocked with a lot of extreme spring styles, which they are unloading, at less than cost. It is right that they should. To carry over such merchandise would not be good business policy. I acknowledge that I can not compete with the dealer, who, for any reason, sells clothes for less than they cost. I advise any one who can be fitted in a ready made suit and whose taste runs to “freaky” styles, to buy of the clothier, who "unfortunately is overloaded with a lot of “undesirables.” Although, you may get a “bargain,” yet, I am inclined to believe it is false economy

for you to pay $25.00 or $30.00 for a suit you don’t like and never will like. Last week a number of men bought my $35.00 and $40.00 suits, because they got exactly what they wanted in style, fit, workmanship and material. Other custom tailors would have charged them from $15.00 to $25.00 more. Ready made suits in the style they really wanted, would have cost them as much or more than I charged for a suit made to order. I am conducting the third largest tailor shop in the city. Any suit I make must be satisfactory in every respect. If it is not you can’t have it. I will not knowingly allow any suit to go out of my shop unless it is right In ever way. I make all-wool suits at from $35.00 to $60.00. Two-piece summer suits for as little as $30.00.
