MILLER BREWING SINGS CORPORATE AGREEMENT WITH INDY CAR TEAM

     Miller Brewing Co. has announced a long-term agreement with
the newly-formed Team Rahal, Inc. to sponsor the Indy car racing
operation.  The five-year deal with Bobby Rahal, the team's
principal driver and a three-time PPG Indy Car World Series
Champ, and his Ohio-based team begins in '96.  Although Miller
has been Rahal's main sponsor for the past four years, this new
deal is believed to be the longest current corporate agreement
with any team on the PPG Indy Car World Series (Miller Brewing).
     TEXAS HOPE:  The management of the Texas Motor Speedway has
not abandoned hope of opening the $100M facility with a NASCAR
Winston Cup race in the fall of '96.  Track GM Eddie George: "The
schedule is released in New York in early December. At that
point, we'll be four or five months into construction" (FT. WORTH
STAR-TELEGRAM, 9/25).
