winner of the 1949 Indianapolis

Norm Witte, executive secretary of the Central States Racing Association, says his association has a contract in the making that wonld have Holland racing under CSRA banner. Witte says Holland will be in action in this area if the deal goes through. Holland won't he in the “500.”

{The AAA barred him because,

says the AAA, Holland participated in an unsanctioned stock car race in Florida last fall. . = n n THE CENTRAL AND Consolidated States Racing Association (CSRA) has announced the following speedway car racing schedule:
