The result Of the race which Columbia

Starbuck's place Jack Ryan, who stroked

to be a fixture in the first eight. Keator

However, the Navy won.
The race serves to show that Columbia's
men are far from the best condition They
are overweight. a condition due thleny TO
the cold weather. Capt Won Saliva, Dellen-

AMONG The AUTOMODILISTS
JERSEY MOTORISTS TO FIGHT
AGAINST STATE LAW.
Directors Of Associated Automobile Clubs
Appoint ". G. crosby Chairman Of
Committee 10 Brine Test Case-TTo'
phles offered for LOng Island Members.

". C. Crosby, yIoe-president Of the New
Jersey Automobile and Motor club, in Newark,
has been appointed chairman OF a committee
which has been selected ~ the Associated
Automobile Clubs Of New ts-seV 10 fight the
oppressive motor vehicle Law OF that state.
The committee will employ counsel to begin
a suit 10 test the OonstitutlOnality OF the
measure, the first point Of attack being tho
license clause. This provision Of the Law IA
thought by many New Jersey lawyers TO he
unconstitutional, and il IL expected that the
state association will attack the validity OF
other features Of the measure.
The decision to begin proceedings a. once
was made al q meeting Of the board OF direc-
tors OF the Associated Automobile Clubs OF
New Jersey last week 10 the clubhouse Of the
New Jersey Automobile and Motor club In
Newark, Most Of the clubs In the state or
ganization have contributed to the fund raised
10 fight the unreasonable features OF the law,
and Chairman Crosbys committee has been
authorized to start the test case a. quickly
as possible George Paddock, president OF
the New } Jersey Automobile I rade Association,
was present at the meeting last week and told
the. directors that the automobile and acces-
sorry dealers OF the state would help the clubs
in every way in bringing the fight to a sue
cessful conclusion.
Ralph N. Sperry, chairman Of the contest
committee Of the Automobile club Of Bridge
port, who has charge Of the clubs annual
hill climb on Sport Hin on Memorial Day,
has been authorized by the governors Of the
organization 10 have a large sign placed A.
the foot Of the hill warning all motorists
against speeding or reckless driving up the
grade. A number Of drivers have been
making practice runs up the hill and the clubs
officials wish TO stop this. The Selectmen
Of Easton, where the hill is located, have
given permission for contestants to practise
on the hill between . and S O'Clock In the
morning for a week before the contest. The
club has received the silver cup donated by
r, b. Craufurd OF New York as The prize
for the amateur drivers Of Rasolene cars.
Mr.. Craufurd won the Yale cup for smateur
drivers last year with his Stevens Duryea
the cup becoming HE property after his
victory. He said Al that time he would put
the cup up again and would compete for II
himself. He has decided not to be a con-
testant this year and so sent the new cup,
for which the governors sent hun a vote OF
thanks.
