HARRISON AT MIAMI.
ALTHOUGH official confirmation is not to hand at the time of writing, it is understood that the Colonel Green Trophy has been won by Crawford, an American.
Harrison, apparently, came second in the two preliminary heats, losing one of them to Collins, another American driver ; while in the final he was first home, but disqualified for crossing the line before the gun.

It will be interesting to hear the full details of this race as Harrison is one of the very few drivers who can be trusted n t to rush over the line at the slightest provocation.
