Derkum to Enter Race in England.

Paul j. CT Derkum probably will
contest in the tourist trophy event,
the only international motorcycle race
which is to be held on the Isle of
Man, in England, the latter part Of
next month. The daredevil one will
make final decision today, and it
is likely it will be for making the
trip. Derkum is urged to cross the
pond and get into the big contest by
the fact that the opportunity will BIZ
given him to inspect the famous
Brooklynds track in England to aid
him in constructing the speedway at
Pomona, which it is planned to make
the fastest speedway in the world
and to build which Derkum closed a
contract some weeks ago.
Derkum received wire recently
from the Hendee Manufacturing Com
pany, manufacturers of Indian motor
cycles, which he has ridden more than
any other make, and with which he
has won all his victories, asking him
if he would consider entering the mo-
torcycle event. Late last night Der
KUN had decided to go if he could
make satisfactory arrangements with
Frank Smith and William Hamlin,
with whom Derkum has the contract
for building the Pomona speedway. He
will meet the Pomonans this morn
ing and inasmuch as it will take
several weeks to get preliminary
speedway details out Of the way be-
fore Derkum can begin actual con-
struction work, it is thought there
will be no objection to the Angeleno
making the trip. s
Derkum, known the world over as
the most daring and skillful Of motor
cycle riders, is the second American
to be given an opportunity to enter
this international event.

PAIGE MAKES SUCCESSFUL
VISIT TO THE VALLEY

]. F. Scott demonstrated the Paige
"36" last Sunday by successfully
transferring the entire Imperial VAL
ley Band to the barbecue grounds
from Imperial. This stunt attracted
considerable attention and many pros
poets were listed, resulting in two
sales. Mr.. Scott's intention is to es-
tablish an agency here for this popu-
lar car, after the showing made here
last week.
Imperial Valley press., 1914-04-18

The sales of various automobile
agencies have been especially good
during the past month. Many per-
sons desire an auto for getting the
benefit of the cool evening breezes

The stage drivers are now having
their share of troubles. With hot,
dusty roads, tire changes are tough,
and will be for some months. None

Army Polo.

outing
Close study of the army polo stu
alton at the present time reveals thes.
strange contradictions. The authorities
at Washington have never before
taken SO much trouble to stimulate
polo in the service. And never before
have certain orders and regulations
which have been put on the official
proper development of the game. This
year. for the first time in history. the
War Department has given official
recognition to polo and indorsed it's
qualities as particularly valuable in
fostering the development of capable
officers. Also. for the first time III his
tory, a rider tackled on to the arm!
appropriations bill in Congress has
made it impossible for the War De
sistance to service teams playing away
from their home posts. The War De-.
partment has stated that ii considers
polo especially worth while because
the game develops the kind OF mount
which Is of greatest military service.
And, in almost the same breath, Off
GERS have been told to give their par
ticular attention to 4 general order
which specifies officers mounts of
size absolutely unsuited to polo. The
War Department has announced that
it desires to extend every possible
assistance to fostering polo. And il
long-standing custom which now
makes il necessary for officers TO feed
q third mount out of their own pocket
instead of from the surplus forage
which the government provides for the
feeding of every officers horses.
