CALL SPEEDWAY FANS TO RACES Big Program at North Shore Polo Field Friday Dirt track auto speed kings will race at the North Shore Polo club speedway, Lincoln avenue and Peter- son road, Chicago, on Memorial Day and Sunday, June 1, in a series of fea- ture events under the sanction of the United Race Drivers' association. Old time racing rivalries are expected to make these contests on the recon- structed half-mile oval as spirited and as daring as Chicago fans have seen in many pears. Many drivers well known to north side auto fans have entered the two- day meet, including George Beck with his famous "Zepp" and Eddie Heckler, a real "comer" in a Nelson Brothers special. Other racers include Ernie Fosnaugh, former dirt track champion of Canada; Jim Leonard, who has driven in dirt track races longer than any other man in America; Harry Nichols, world champion over five miles on a half-mile track, and Cur- ley Young, a young speed marvel. On Memorial Day the elimination trials will start at 9 o'clock in the morning, each driver to make three laps. The sixteen with the fastest times will compete in the fifty-mile race at 3 o'clock in the afternoon. On Sunday the program, starting at 2:30 o'clock, consists of six big events. Cliff Woodbury and Fuzzy Davidson, both in Frontenacs, will compete in a special ten-mile match race which promises to be a thriller. Another interesting event for the Sunday meet is a "Straw Hat Derby" at fifteen miles. In this the drivers whose hats blow off or fly away are disqualified. It was in a race of this character that made such a sensation at the Ascot track in Los Angeles, and in which Davidson gained his triumph over Ralph DePalma. Other races for the big Sunday meet are a ten-mile for light cars, a ten- mile for heavy cars, a fifteen-mile final in which six qualify from each of the first two events, and a consolation.
