HARRY KNIGHT
MEETS DEATH
IN AUTO RACE

n OLUMBUS, OHIO, July s.
Well, just this once more and
I'm done said Harry Knight
as he slipped under his steering
wheel of his racing car yesterday and
prepared to line up for the 2OO-m mile
race.
on the 10th lap Knight was
thrown from his car as the result
Of a blown tire ana was run over and
killed by the car driven by Johnny
Jenkins, his best friend. Milton
Michaelis, his mechaniCian, was so
seriously injured that he died soon
after. Both men claimed Atlanta az
their home, though both came orig
inally from Indianapolis
The death Of Knight resulted from
an accident similar to the one that
gave him the title of The Hero OF
the indianapolis Track" On this oC-
Casion Knight drove his car into the
concrete wall surrounding the track
to avoid running over a man who had
fallen from a car
knight had been officially declared
out of the race, owing to time lost
as result of engine trouble. but
despite the fact that he had no
chance for the prizes he insisted on
continuing the race. Almost in front
of the grandstand a tire blew, the car
swerved, went over, righted-throw-
ing both men to the ground. Jen-
kins, who was chasing Knight, went
over his body. Knight was terribly
mangled and died instantly.
Ralph milford won the race, break
ing the worlds record for 200 miles
on dirt track. He won the distance
in hours q minutes and As seconds
The previous best time was made on
the Columbus track by Spencer Wis
hart in 3 hours rs minutes and 1-2
seconds.
Harry Endicott was second, with
the time of hours As minutes and
