FLAKORN contains all the dry ingredients, of finest quality, precision-mixed for sure results, manual arts in the District schools, and a supporter of the Derhy since it was first run, has announced that the same ca-eperstion that waz available last year will agamn be furnished to Derby entrants. Teachers Offer 8 tions, Several junior high schools last year had numerous products of their shops at the Derby course and the shop-built jobs gave good perform- ances, although the winner’s car was built in a basement workshop. Availability of the woodshops also furnishes a source of advice and suggestions for the young Derby enthusiasts. Manual training teach- ers are able to give expert instruc- tion as the cars are being built, and enable the boys to do better jobs of construction. Although entrants in the Derby are permitted to receive advice and suggestions from adults, the boys must build the cars themselves. The cost of the Derby racer is limited to $10, and eligibility for the race is limited to boys between 11 and 15 years of age under the 1940 rules. Four veteran Derby ‘racers yes- terday answered questions on the 1940 Soap Box Derby rules when they were interviewed by Bill Coyle, radio director of The Star, over Station WMAL. The boys know all the answers. All of them were in the 1939 race, and the majority were in the 1938 Derby. Those interviewed - were Clark B. Stewart, 312 Elm street, Chevy Chase, Md.; Paul B. Cramer, jr., 126 Somerset place N.W.; Ed- win Walter, 3123 Fifty-first place N.W,-and J. Le Roy Poole, 6211 Eighth street N.W. Zeb T. Hamilton, Derby director, spoke briefly iurged the boys to, register and /fgcelve. their rule books as soon as pdssible. pgzhcn are a.. of im- int changes: in the 1940 rules which should be considered care- fully,” he said. *The- quicker you get your rule books the more time youll have to prepare your car to pass the inspectign before the race.” Mr. Hamilton urged parents to co-operate with their sons to guide them to a full reslization of the benefits “in this all-boy activity.” Influence Cited. “The Soap Box Derby,” he said, “Is’ much more than just a racing event for boys and their home- made cars. Its great influence will last throughout the boy's lifetime. He will learn to plan well and to build well, and he will acquire a high regard for sportsmanship, for fair play and for the rights of others.” The Derby will be held July 13. The entrants will race in elimina- tion heats to decide the champlons in two classes. Class “A” will in- clude boys from 13 to 15 years, inclusive, and class “B” racers will be from 11 to 12 years. The winners in the two classes will then race to determine the Washington champion. The cham- pion will go to Akron, Ohio, in August to compete for the title of national champion. There will be prizes for every winner in the Washington Derby. Requirements for Entrants. Boys who want to enter should 80 to the salesroom of the Chevro- let dealer nearest their homes and obtain registration blanks, a safety pledge and a rule book.
