MULFORD IS WINNER
SEVENTH VANDERBILT CUP
RACE is RUN OFF ON sA-
vANNAH COURSE.
RALPH DEPALMA WINS SECOND
New Record Created, the 202 Miles
Being Run at Average Speed
of 74.63 Miles Per.
Hour.

Savannah, Ga. - AS he flashed
by the judges stand at the finish of
the seventh Vanderbilt cup race, the
American automobile world hailed
Ralph K. Milford, driver of Lo-
zier car, as new champion.
Not only had milford broken previ-
GUS Vanderbilt records, he also had
surpassed the Santa Monica perfor.
nance of Harvey Herrick, in cover
ing 202 miles at an average of 74.63
miles an hour At that he was pushed
to win the nerve-racking 292-mile con-
test by Ralph De Palma, the brilliant
driver of a French Mercedes. De
Palma finished just a little more
than two minutes behind the winner
and eight minutes in advance of the
other Mercedes entrant, driven by
Wishart, who finished third
Only six of the IA cars that start
ed finished. Bob Burman and David
Bruce-Brown, winner of last years
grand prize race, were among those
forced to drop out through the defec-
ton of their machines.
The race was run without the ac>
ton of the usual toll of human life.
Among numerous accidents which be.
fell contestants to the detriment of
their chances to possess the coveted
trophy, only one imperiled life and
limb. A rear wheel on Bruce
Browns Fiat car flew off after turn
had been taken at slow speed. Bruce
Brown and his mechanician escaped
unhurt.
Burman Has Hard Luck.
Bob Burman was the victim of hard
luck. He had just driven his Marmon
around the seventh lap in record
time, one minute and half behind
milford, the leader, when a loose
stone struck the gasoline tank con.
nection and broke it. Burman aban.
doned the race. Joe Cyrus Patche,
driver of the other Marmon entry,
also was running good race when
an air pump gave way on the ninth
lap and forced him out of the con
test. Joe Matson took his Fiat back
to camp when leaky radiator
threatened the destruction of his en-
CINE by fire.

Somewhat in advance of the rush
of June musicals Miss Elma Weller's
presentation in piano recital of two
gifted young pupils, Misses Isola
Smith and Margaret Rodgers, assist
ed by Mrs. w. Carlton Smith, So
prano, was distinct pleasure to the
many friends and lovers of music
who gathered on last Tuesday even
ing in the auditorium of the First
Methodist church. The program
which was crisp and not too long
was opened with the stately Danse
Macabre (Saint Seans) arranged for
two pianos and played by Miss Ell
ma Weller, Miss Elizabeth Lord,
Mrs. B. o. Schucking and Mrs.
Chauncey Bishop.
With a delightful absence of self
consciousness little Miss Margaret
Rodgers gave three tone poems from
Heller followed by a Godard's Ber-
ceuse from Jocelyn and four Grieg
studies. The latter in their simple
rendering were as sweet and dainty
as spring blossoms. Throughout her
work melodic quality and graceful
phrasing were developed far beyond
her years and promise to become a
feature of her permanent style.
Those who heard Miss Isola Smith
last year at the Mcdowell recital,
were more than pleased at her
marked progress in style and devel-
opment. Her technique and interpre-
tation are remarkable while her
playing on this occasion was ex-
tremely brilliant for one so young.
Her numbers were "Wallenhaupt,"
Grieg's Butterfly" and two Chopin
waltzes, concluding with Sindings
Rustic of Spring" The latter was
played beautifully, the legato of the
left hand arpeggios being especially
good. Miss Weller may be Justly
proud of the willing response to her
own skill and enthusiasm that these
little Misses barely in their teens"
have made and their interested au-
ditors will delight in hearing them
next season in larger and better
things. Mrs. Carlton Smiths brill
lian soprano was heard in two diff
cult numbers die Nachtegall" Ste
phens and Mother O. Nine" Tours
The latter was received so enthusi-
astically that she graciously respond
ed with an encore. Mrs. Smiths
voice is constantly. gaining in timbre
and is always joy to her hearer.
The program was concluded with a
clever bit of ensemble playing, the
"Semiramide Averture" from Ros-
sina by four little pupils of the class,
Misses Isola Smith, Margaret Rod
gers, Lena Wiedmer and Myrtle
King. Miss Weller and her gifted
young pupils received many con-
gratulations at the conclusion of the
program.
