Something new will be added to this year's Item-NORD-Chevrolet Soap Box Derby. Consuls of all foreign nations in New Orleans have been invited to sponsor boys in the 1957 affair. First to sing up is Nisi Sato, consul of Japan. And here's the young Orleanian he's sponsoring, Robert A. Steudlein. With them is Warren Gracianette, derby co-ordinator for NORD.
