MODERN MOTOR TRACK TO BE CONSTRUCTED At $2,000,000 COST Work Begun on Speedway That Promises to Eclipse All Others in the Coun try Tract 16 Miles From City to Be Utilized. Philadelphia Is to havo the most modern and efficient motor speedway In this coun try. The Philadelphia Motor Speedway Association has already begun work upon a $2,000,000 project. Great steam shovels nro at work on tho excavations and a, ttact of ground 16 miles front this city, between Old York road and tho Beading Railway tracks north of Willow Grove, has taken on a somblnnce to tho mag nificent work which will eventually oc cupy the site. Profiting by tho cxlstcnco of the older tracks In America, tho Philadelphia speedway will combine tho best features ot all and eliminate their faults. The track will bo two miles In circuit and be constructed of brick laid on concrete, this providing tho Ideal running surfaco on a foundation which cannot buckle or settle. DANGER ELIMINATED, There will bo concrcto curbs hub high about the cntlro track, this feature elim inating tho danger of decapitation to drivers whose cars bocomo unmanageable and would .ordinarily plunge through a wooden fonce. Tho curves of the track will bo easy and well banked. It Is thought that when completed these points will go far toward making the speedway tho fastest track In this country. To do away with the old nuisance of unconscious trespassing upon the track during tho course of races, subways have been provided at numerous points and spectators may pass at will from ono side of the courso to tho other. Flans by Hencock & Hoknnson, ar chitects for tho Philadelphia Motor Speedway Assoclatlon.-ca.il for concrete grandstands Beating 100,000 persons. There will be parking accommodations for 30,000 automobiles, It being expected that the majority of spectators will motor to the races, the speedway being only 30 min utes' run from the city. Excellent facil ities for other spectators, however, are provided by the Reading Railway and tho Philadelphia Rapid Transit Company. Both will havo terminals at the speedway. It Is believed that the new project will be one of tho most successful of Its kind In tho country. It Is pointed outthat Its location Is In tho centre of a lOO-mllo radius having a population of 12,000,000 persons upon which It may draw. Sub scriptions to the speedway are pour)ng In In such amounts that officers assert the success of tho plan already assured. Sup port of the project has been especially strong In Pennsylvania and neighboring States. AUTOMOBILE RUN THURSDAY. An automobile run to this city will begin on Thursday of this weok under tho auspices of tho association. More than 1200 members from all parts of tho State will participate In the event, nnd arriving In this city will compete for 7S cups In different motoring events. Among those who will figure In the af fair are Ralph De Palma, who recently won the contest at Indianapolis, and Bob Burman, scarcely less well known. The object of the run and consequent contest Is that members of the association may see how far work has progressed on the new speedway.
