YOUNG ACTRESS BUYS
AUTO IN Los ANGELES
New Leading Lady, Who Was
Born in Wales, Purchases
aWeICh Machine

By one of those odd coincidents
leading ladies" wait until they reach
Los Angeles to buy a car. This time
it is Neva West, the new leading lady
of the Grand, but as the young miss
said the other day, ITO see a Welch
car was to love it," This was not all
Joking, either, for Wales was the place
of her nativity and a good old home
name seemed most appropriate for the
car which she would elect to drive all
summer while she is filing her local
enga agement. Accompanied by Miss
Johns, the retiring leading lady, long
circuitous route was mapped out for
demonstration, and in just one-half
hour the little woman had the mechan-
ism down so pat that she consented to
drive the car up for a press photogra-
pher Then away like the wind went
this big car. and if there was motor
COP on the street he did not put IN an
appearance, for the stall would have
been a sick baby being taken to the
doctor, when as an actual fact the
sick baby was only a big doll borrowed
from one of the local department
stores. Men are such good hearted fel-
lows that even a policeman would
''falT' for those baby stunts of the new
leading lady.

MATHESON TOO SILENT,
SAYS BANK OFFICIAL
Driver of Six Afraid of Running
Down Pedestrians and Ap-
peaIS to Police

Motorists have good cause 10 "sit up
and take notice" at the experience of
John L. Mitchell. an officer of the First
National bank of Norwich. Conn, who
proves beyond a doubt that while si-
lence in operation of an automobile
may be a desirable attribute, an ex-
tremely quiet car is not without it's
drawbacks.
Mr.. Mitchell was the purchaser of a
new Matheson "Silent SiX'' a few weeks
ago, and from the outset he had trouble
owing to it's remarkably quiet opera
tion. He applied to the chief Of police
for a permit to open his muller cut
out so that in case of pedestrian fail
ing to see the approach of the machine
he might at least be notified of its pres
ence, as the engine was positively
noiseless. Under recent date Mr.
Mitchell wrote c. w Matheson, the
manufacturer, as follows:
THE chief informed me that while
the law read that cut-Outs were not to
be used he was powerless to grant me
this permission, or even to personally
advise me to run with the cut-out open
until I had been warned not to do SO.
The chief is good friend of mine. and
/ explained to him that while driving
through town people were continually
stepping in front of the car because
of the extreme silence of the engine,
and ever since my call, notwithstand-
ing the apparent unsatisfactory nature
of the same, / am running daily
through the crowded parts of the city
with the cut-out fully opened, and am
not then making as much noise as the

"The capital outlay is not the gov

$4,000 IN CASH PRIZES
At INDIANAPOLIS MEET
Many Speed Creations Will Be
Seen for First Time on
the New Track

The indianapolis motor speedway
strikes a, popular chord with the man
ufacturers in regard to entrance 1eeS'
saws Manager z. A. Moross. BY max
ing racing cost entrants but little, the
popular course is assured OF lonS
string of entrants. The number of cars
entered at the recent meet was mat
ter Of wonder to the outside promoters.
Nominal entrance fees also tend to
encourage the sport. Last year the en-
trance fees for the Cobe trophy race
were $500 for the first car $500 for the
second car and 5000 for the third car.
To enter this event this year the en-
trance fee will be $5 for each car en-
tered, or SIS for team of three cars,
against 5000 for the same team entered
last year In addition to driving for
the cup alone the winning pilot will re-
ceive $500, $500 for second place, $500 for
third place and $100 for fourth place.
Cash to the extent of $4,000 will be
sprinkled throughout the meet, making
it the greatest cash prize meet ever
run. as the trophies will reach king S
ransom. The above policy has en-
couraged the sport of automobile rae
ing with the Indianapolis motor speed
way as the pace setter.
The Cobe cup is but one of the. fea-
lures Of the July meet, as there Will be
various class races at the various dis
tances. handicaps, free-for~alls, record
trials. with the events for the G. and
j. trophy and the Remy Grand Bras
sard. The Buick team will defend two
of the trophies to be raced for at the
July meet, namely, the Cobe cup and
the G. and J. trophies, which they won
last year.
Many new speed creations will be
seen for the first time this year, as all
+ba manufacturers were not ready for
the opening meet which made new his
tory in the realm of motordom. The
record crowd of May 80 promises to be
surpassed at the July meet, and the in
creased seating capacity now being
constructed will take care of the crowd.

THRILLING FEATS DONE BY
MOTOR CAR ROUGH RIDERS
Overland Autos Given Remark
able Test at Indianapolis

When the thousands had packed the grand
stands at the recent motor car races at the
Indianapolis motor speedway, they we're inter

upon the paved race course. Fred D. wagner, /,
who started all events gave the signal ana
six motor car rough riders or testers from the
Overland factory dashed upon the track They
rode in test cars fresh from the factory ana
few thought It possible that they would he
a BILE to perform the feat mapped out for them
in the hazard race.
Mr., Wagner sent two cars at a time. The
board mountains were fifteen feet high and
the angle Of incline about so degrees Ihe
cars were urged up these steep obstacles and
then dropped down like a rock to the track,
to be raced a half mile, when A duplicate per-
formance had to be made in front Of the
bleachers The performance was the idea OF
VIII II. Brown. vice president Of the Overland
company to demonstrate the power Of control
of his product He was more than delighted,
and when Mr.. Wagner announced that the
winner for the Speedway medal had made both
ascents and Travelled the two and half miles
in three minutes and twenty-eight seconds, as
caught by the Warner electrical timer
Fred Wagner declared it to be one Of the
most remarkable feats he has ever witnessed
during his many years of experience on auto
race courses. The cars were not In the least
