Image of The Week
This article (published August 26, 1909) details the Jackson Company's claims against the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. The company sued for rights to the Wheeler-Schebler Trophy. Officials refused to award the company the trophy because the 300-mile race was halted before going the distance due to a brutal accident. Jackson driver Leigh Lynch was leading when the race was flagged.
