November 30. The idea of a team
Marathon was suggested by a similar
event over a distance of twenty miles
which was held at the Garden on No
vember 4, and which was a tremen-
dous success from a spectacular point
of view. The coming race will be
over the full distance, 26 miles 2S5
yards, and the best long distance pro-
fessionals in the world have signed up
to compete There will be five teams
-Shrubb and Wood, England; Holmer

Shrubb. ST. Yves and Ljungstrom are
three of the greatest long distance

CLEAN RECORD
FOR MAXWELL G

c. G. Bleasdale, manager Of the
United States Motor company forces
in Cleveland, who recently VOL the
Cleveland endurance run of 500 miles
with his Maxwell model G, is ire
pressible when it comes to proclaim
ing the power and endurance Of these
cars. His latest effort was a ten-day
1,O0O-mile run in Maxwell model @,
with every part of the car sealed to
prevent adjustments or repairs. The
car was driven by Frank Santry, ac-
companied by an observer appointed
by the Cleveland Automobile Club
The long run was started on November
5, covering all of northern Ohio, and
its mission was to boost the good
roads movement in Ohio. Mr.. Santry
carried letters from the Cleveland Au-
tomobile Club addressed to the editor
OF every newspaper in the towns COW

HUDSON CAR A
NOISELESS RUNNER
Engine Was Moving While
Demonstrators We're Ready
for II to Start

One Of the many features Of the 1911
"33" is its noiselessness, but the still
running engine was too much for w.
B. Woodcock, manager of the White
Motor Car Company. of Grand Rapids,
Michigan. The Grand Rapids concern
received its 1911 demonstrator the
other day. II was unloaded tenderly,
and filed with gasoline and oil before
a crowd of admiring motorists. The
manager of the Grand Rapids Com
pany invited several of the bystanders
to get in and have the first ride in the
1911 touring car.
L. ]. Robinson, one of the Hudson
Company's district sales managers was
on hand to witness the "33's initial
appearance I'm Grand Rapids. AFTER MT.
Woodcock and his other friends got IN
the car, Robinson cranked the motor
and took his seat beside the driver.
Mr.. Woodcock, over anxious 10 have
the car start off right and make the
best impression possible, showed
plainly he was nervous when the en-
gine apparently stopped.
81 wish you would crank her again,
he said to Robinson.
What for?" said Robinson.
"why she's stopped" the manager
said
Don't fool yourself about that,
said Robinson. THE engine is running
as fine as can be. | guess you're not
used to silent cars"
The Grand Rapids man was sur
prised, but mighty well pleased.
When Howard E. Coffin, the de-
signer of the Hudson car, enclosed
the valves to make them dust-proof,
the effect was for a noiseless car as
we'll. It frequently happens that one is
not able to hear the engine running
even when standing close by it. To
make automobiles noiseless and dust
proof has been one Of the things which
motor car designers have been striv-
ing after for a great many years. They
have made the greatest progress to-
ward that end this season.

Lexington College Recital.

Lexington GOLege heClIal.
The third of the series of grad
uating reeitals was given at Lex
ington College Monday, April Il.
On account of the large class it
has been necessary this year to
allow those of different depart
ments to appear together. The
college has reason to feel proud
of the high standard of excellence
maintained in these recitals and it
was in no degree diminished
when it presented Miss Cora
Greenwade of the expression class
and Misses Martha Stewart and
Gussie Steady Of the piano.
Miss Greenwade showed a
self-cOnfidence and poise unusual
in an amateur. Her three num-
berS were varied in character and
she proved herself equally good
in her representations and in her
renditiOns of more serious pieces.
In "The Ninety and Nine, F."
which is an extremely heavy
number, she demonstrated her
ability by holding her audience
perfectly quiet and the fact that
she was forced to respond to an
encore after each of her humor-
Gus numbers shows that her work
J in hat line was appreciated.
Miss Stewart has gained for her
! self the reputation of a thorough
! and diligent student. In the Son
ate op 2 No. 3 of Beethoven she
: showed much clearness of musical
thought and accuracy, playing tn
/, demanding passages with ease
and precision. The waltz GA la
| bien aimee" was perhaps the
most pleasing of her numbers,
the rich singing tone, the artis-
tic phrasing as well as the techni-
cal finish all showed a thorough
v artistic conception.
X Miss Steady played the Mozart
. Grieg Senate in f with second
piano accompaniment by Miss
i Robbins with remarkable preeis
