Racers In Moscow Today

Ed McGoldrick's National, which
was making such good showing when
it passed here yesterday, went in the
ditch this side of Uniontown, and re-
turned to Moscow last night. When
making fifty-five miles an hour. front
tire blew out, and the tire chain wound
up on the speedometer wheel, turning
the car into the ditch. Nobody was
hurt, but so much time was lost re-
moving the chain that McGoldrick con-
sidered it not worth while to continue
in the race. He had not been over the
course before, and carried no lights,
SO it is not probable he could have
kept on the course after nightfall
Wright broke the frame of his Ford
after leaving Lewiston, and had to
drop out. Roberts of Walla Walla,
driving Overland No. /, passed through
town on his way home this morning.
After leaving Palouse yesterday, he
broke his springs and had to drop
out.

PROF. HULME A STRONG SPEAKER

Under the above caption the Pend
d'Oreille Review prints two-column
report of two of the addresses given
by Professor Edward NJ. Hulme at the
annual Kootenai-Bonner County Teach
ers' institute The report is conclud-
ed with the follow paragraph:
"The addresses of Professor E. M.
Hulme of the University of Idaho, both
before the general sessions and in the
high school sections, were highly ap-
preciated by the teachers. No matter
what his subject, moral uplift was the
warp and %oof of it all. Professor
Hulme was intensely interesting and
without his inspiring address the work
of the institute would not have been
complete"
