MOTORCYCLE RACES TO BE GOOD SPORT
Large Crowd Expected to Attend Speed Event Here on Fourth of July.
From the opening pop of the first pistol that starts the Ave mile club race in the motorcycle tournament at the Richmond Driving association park on the Fourth of July, held un
der the auspices of the Richmond Motor Club, to the passing of the last rider in the pursuit race that closes the program, the most exciting racing event that has ever been held in Wayne county is expected. ' The entire list for the motorcycle Vace will be closed soon. On the program of races, are entered some of the fastest and most reckless riders in Wayne and Preble counties, and records and accidents are anticipated. There will be an ambulance and physicians on the track ready for any emergency. The track, although banked slightly at the end is the regular flat borse racing style, and to avoid accidents the machines will have to suddenly decrease their tremendous speed at the turns or the wheels will skid. Undoubtedly there will be present the biggest crowd In the history of the old driving park. The pursuit race will bave about 20 entries. The machines
re arranged at different handicapped positions along the track. All start at the same time. When ever a rider is passed he drops out of the race. The last man remaining In the contest wins. Home times these pursuit races last for hours, after the field has been narrowed down to two or three riders. It Is J robably &s dangerous as any motorcycle event. Great Interest it being displayed in the Waking-Smith race which will be an even start five mile event. Waking and 8mith are dealers, riding Indian and Excelsior machines respectively. Smith is riding a twin cylinder machine, and Waking has just received a new racing Indian which he saya will nuke a great showing.
