Disbrow broke his own record for five miles against time made at the state fair grounds fit Springfield last year by twenty-five seconds. He completed the distance In 4:33:6, mak- ing a new mark for the distance on a dirt trnck. J One of the largest crowds that ever attended a racing event around Chi- cago watt iiresent Hundreds of auto- mobiles lined the course, while the huge grandstand was more than Com- fortably filled. Hundreds of' Evans- ton people were among the onlookers. It was in the feature event, at ten miles, that Disbrow showed his skill as a driver. Both be and Ricken- bacher, who drove a Mason Special, had each won a heat in the races held ut the same track two weeks ago. Disbrow had his little red Simplex Zip keyed up to better than a mlle-a- minute clip. • Had Blood In Their gye. Both drivers had blood in their eye as they lined up for the start At the crack of the pistol Disbrow "opened 'er wide" and the machine leaped out like a thing alive. Rickenbaoher was right on top of Disbrow's rear wheels, when he got the word, and they shot like a streak for the pole at the first turn. Disbrow went wide and in a moment the gray hood of his rival's car was out in front. This was only for a moment, however, for with a spurt that sent a thrill through the spectators in the grandstand Disbrow again went to the front, where he re- mained until the finish. It was a hard-fought race, and the skill and daring of the two drivers brought rounds of applause from the stand. In the beginning of the race: Disbrow hung up a new world's com- petition record, his time being 9:181-5.
