Included in this number are the hold- ers of first, second, third, sixth, seventh and ninth positions and the six are the men who are generally considered the real contenders for titular honors. Of the four who are now missing from the Elgin entry, Rene Thomas, who holds fourth place, is back in France and will compete in no more American races while Joe Thomas, fifth, Ira Vail, eighth, and Ira Goodson, tenth, have been unable to secure cars which will qualify within the Elgin limit of 183 cubic inches piston displacement. The men entered in the Elgin race, however, are the half dozen men who are generally considered the men who are in the fight for honors, They are Gaston Chevrolet, Tom- { my Milton and Jimmy Murphy, hold- ers of first, second and third place; Ralph Mulford and Eddie Hearne, sixth and seventh and Ralph De Palma ninth. Their standing is based on points made in the speedway races at Los Angeles, Indianapolis and Tacoma, respectively, the only con- tests which have so far been desig- nated championship events. Gives 500 Points Elgin carries 500 points toward ' championship to the victor, so the struggle for this race will be more than ordinarily keen. Gaston Chev- rolet, who holds first place at present, has a good lead by virtue of his vic- tory Memorial day at Indianapolis which brought him 1,000 points, but either Tommy Milton, victor in the 1919 Elgin race, or Jimmy Murphy can easily pass him by winning the road classic this year. ; The complete list of point awards for the Elgin is, first, 500; second, 260; third, 140; fourth, 80; fifth, 50; sixth, 35; seventh, 25; eighth, 13; ninth, 10; tenth, 5. Due to the demolition of the Cin- cinnati and Sheepshead Bay speed- ways, there remain only a few races this year before the title is divided. Uniontown and Beverly Hills have both carded championship contests, but if Chevrolet manages to win at Elgin, it will be an almost 1mpos- sible task for his rivals to overtake him in these two events. Coming in Rapidly Entries for the race are coming in more rapidly now and by closing date. August 14, officials' of the Chi- cago Motor club expect to have from 12 to 15, an ideal number of starters for a course such as Elgin.
