Last Night, Doing Damage
SPEED MANIA CAUSES
VIOLENT DEATHS ON
new RAcIN6 COURSE

Indianapolis, Aug. 21.-Two lives
were lost at the opening of the new
indianapolis motor course yesterday,
William A. Bourque, driver of the
Knox car in the 250-mile race, and
Harry Holcomb, his machinist, were
killed by crashing into fence.
The death of the two men caused
the American Automobile Association
to inform the owners of the track
that certain changes must be made
by tomorrow or sanction for the re-
naming events will be withdrawn.
The association demands that the
track be freed from dangerous ruts
and that every inch of It be thorough
ly oiled and tarred.
Today only short portion In front
of the grandstand was oiled and dust
on the other parts is blamed for the
collapse OF two drivers in the long
race-Louis Chevrolet and Fred Ellis
who were blinded by the dense
white mist that covered the major
portion OF the track
The Knox car was in second place.

and had covered nearly $50 miles
when the crash came. While coming
down the home stretch the car sud-
denly swerved and tore into the fence
at the left of the track. turning COM
pletely over and pinning its two oc-
cupants beneath it.
Both men were alive when taken
from under the wreck. but Bourque
died in the ambulance on the way to
the emergency hospital. Holcomb
died few minutes after he arrived
at the hospital.
According to the story told by Pri-
vate Frank Brandon, of the Indiana
national guard. who was nearest the
accident. something caused both of
the men suddenly to turn and look
behind. AS they did so, the steering
wheel slipped from Bourque's hand.
Then the accident occurred.

ROOSEVELT IS

Douglass Robinson Declares the
Report to be a Wild
RumOr

NE WYORk, Nov. 5.-Another OF
| those apparently absurd rumors thai
bob up nearly every time prominent
man gets out of direct touch with the
world. circulated Oven the country
today concerning former president
Roosevelt.
The will o the wisp had it that Mr..
Roosevelt had been killed in Africa
hunting, freshly imprinted on the pub
tic mind by Mr.. Rooseveit's maya
zine articles, there was some uneas-
mess until Douglas Robinson, Mr..
Roosevelt's brother-in-law, declared
emphatically he took no stock in such
reports.
Mr.. Robinson branded the first
vague reports OF the day as false and
when informed tonight that later ru-
murs from the shadow land OF news
papcrdOm had ii that he tMr. Rob-
insonD had been advised by cable OF
Mr.. Roosevelt's death. he authorized
another vigorous denial.
II anything had happened to his
brother-in-law, Mr.. Robinson was sure
he would hear of it Immediately and
accordingly he placed no credit i'll the
reports of today.
Magazine editors and other asso-
ciates of Mr.. Rooseveit's in New York
took the same view. 1t was pointed
out that the colonial Office in London
would be promptly advised OF any
miShap to Mr.. Roosevelt.
As nothing had been heard there
this was taken as an indication that
the rumOr was merely news sprito
from the field of sixth sense.
