FIFTY-MILE RACE
AT POINT BREEZE
.
Frank Corri and Percy Lawrrence Fa
vorite Tonight
Manager Jack Ttoden has arranged
a great program for tonight's attraction
at the Point Breeze Motordrome. The
feature eent will be a fifty-mile motor
paced event. In which Frank Corrl, the
sensational rider from Australia, will be
pitted against Percy Lawrence, the pres
ent American champion.
Last Saturday night Corrl won the
foity-mlle eent. and among those he
defeated was Percy Lawrence. The
track was In poor condltlon; due to the
Intense heat, and all the men with the
exception of Corrl had several punc
tures, which put them out of the race.
Corrl won by been miles and showed
that bo waa In great shape.
This wasn't a fair test for Lawrence,
so the fans of the track asked Manager
Hoden to arrange a race in which I.aw
rence and Corrl wpud compete. This
Rod en has done, The other riders In
this feature eent will be Ucorge Wiley
and ISlmer Collins.
Tho pacemakers are out for revenge.
Jimmy Hunter won the American cham
pionship, but Jtody Lehman and Speedy
Vanderbefry still claim they can de
feat Hunter. They will have their chance
tonight, Norman Anderson will be the
other pacemaker. In addition to the
above race there will be a two and five
mile motorcycle race and a two-mile
amateur bike event.
Twenty members of the Forty-sixth
Regiment ot United States Engineers
who are stationed In this district will
bo the guests of the motordrome tonight.
Tnev have consented to act as oftlclals.
Starting with Saturday'nlght, Manager
Jioden has planned a new feature. In
stead of staging a forty or fifty mile
motor-paced race It Is planned to hold
three races of shorter distance. There
will be two motor-paced racis of fifteen.
miles each and aSten-mlle event Prises
.win be awarded l each case.
