Maxwell Again Wins
New Records For Speed

Again the sturdy Maxwell has estab-
lished most enviable new record for
yesterday from Billy Carlson. the fa-
nous Maxwell ra6ing driver, from Col
ton. California, gives information that
stock Maxwell has broken all rec
ords for fast driving over the course
between Los Angeles and Riverside, a
distance of fifty-eight miles.
The Maxwell covered this distance in
ffty-siX minutes and twenty-siX Sec
onds, over combination of both good
and bad roads, crossing the railroad
many times, and slowing up through
twelve towns on the way.
The Maxwell made an average OF
siXty-one miles an hour for the trip
and made the distance of fifty-eight
miles Just ffty-three minutes and
forty-fou seconds faster than the fast
coast trains travel 1t. All automobile
records for the course from Los An
geles to Riverside were broken. This
Is another remarkable showing for the
speed, power and endurance of the
Maxwell car.

DESIGNER OF BABY
SIX MITCHELL CAR
John W. Bate Practically the First
Builder of six" Cars
in America

John w. Bate. vice president and
chief engineer of the Mitchell-Lewis
Motor Co., holds unique and enviable
position in the automobile world, be-
ing absolutely the first producer of
practical automobiles in large guam
titles in America. Sponsor for and
builder of the well-known "Mitchelf'
line, Mr.. Bates foresight and keen an
alysis of the automobile market has
been marked by the steady progress
of the Mitchell-Lewis Motor Co.
Mr.. Bates early entry into the auto
! mobile market has given him a keen
insight as to the public demand and
| the rapidity of the progress of the
| Mitchell-Lewis Motor Co., from 1903
when he designed and built the first
Mitchell" car the first car to retail at
! $3.50, and that could be successfully
manufactured in quantities reads like
story from the arabian Nights
AS early as 1905 he designed and
built a Mitchell model to sell for $3.50.
In 1905 he built the Mitchell model B-4,
a sidedoor touring car. to retail for
$1,5O0, at that time the lowest price
four cylinder car on the American or
European market This, outside of
the change in body design and addi-
ton of an up-to date equipment, is a
prototype of the modern car of to-day.
With an early realization of the de-
mand for a popular priced Six, Mr..
BGte's manufacturing experience and
engineering genius was responsible
car ever built in America. In 1910 Mr..
Bate offered the automobile world the
seven-passenger Mitchell Model as" at
1000. a price one-third less than any
siX-c -cyylinder car in the world at that
time.
With his early advent into the Six
field, his broad experience, and the
enormous manufacturing facilities of
the Mitchell-Bewis Motor Company at
his command he developed the Six and,
notwithstanding the quick turn other
Skies, Mr. Bate with his priority in the
field made rapid progress through 1911
with this model 81 and in 1912 climax
ed his wonderful work in the field of
Skies with the worlds famous Mitchell
Baby Six" at s1.750. the first siX-cylin-
der car in the world to retail for less
than $4,000. Evidence of the wonderful
constructive ability and mechanical
genius of this Mitchell Engineer is the
fact that now, three years later, they
bring more on the market than other
cars of the same date.
Mr.. Bate is the man who has designed
and built Mitchell cars since the
Mitchell Lewis Motor Co. entered the
ception of 1913 when we was in Europe
recuperating from his twelve years of
strenuous effort in producing cars.
The Mitchell 1915 Light Six at $1,5S5,
and the Light Four at $3.50, are the
result of Mr.. Bates seven years expert
ence in building siX-cylinder cars and
and building automobiles. These are his
masterpieces and his engineering abil-
ity and the integrity of the Mitchell
Lewis Motor Co: with, its record of
American public are back of this pro-
duct.

To TELL OF DREARY
SOUTH POLAR WASTES
Sir Douglas Mawson, Explorer and
Scientist, Will Describe His Har-
rowing Experiences


How it feels to travel across miles
and miles of trackless freezing wastes
of the Antarctic seas-alone; to tum-
bic into crevasse that is apparently
bottomless and to spin like. a clocks !
pendulum at the end of rope; to cover |
the dead face of your only comrade,
read a burial service over his body and
then bury him beneath the chunks of
ice; and finally to kill the last dog of
the last sledge team-the pet husky
at that-these are only a few of the
experiences that Sir Douglas Mawson
a few days ago told upon his arrival
in this country.
Sir Douglas will be the guest of the
Natural History Society at the Majes-
tic Theater February 40, when he will
relate the story of his famous trip
across the South polar wastes in his
quest for scientific data for the Aus
tralian government. Sir Douglas made
the trip with two companions, Lieuten-
ant b. E. S. MINIS, Royal Fusileers,
and DR.. Y. MertZ, and in speaking of
that memorable, weary trip Of miles
and miles, he said:
I'VE were going across King George
V. Land. / looked around and missed
MINIS.
"Mertz and | hurried back to the
was of unfathomable depth and all
that could be seen was dead dog, an
injured dog and a few fragments of
the sledge load caught on shelf $50
feet below. The means of the dog
ceased with a few minutes
Unfortunately the largest part of
our supplies were on MINIS sedge
and were lost with the best team of
dogs too. We had stripped the dogs
bodies for food and even smashed the
bones for nutrition. But the poor old
fellows themselves had been starved
and there was no nourishment in their
bones.
"I could see that Mertz was grad
ually becoming depressed and at mid
night, he passed away, after having
been in delirium and unconscious
for some hours | was alone about
100 miles from the camp.
For the next five days it showed all
the time and I was able to see only
a few feet ahead of me. Suddenly II
found myself dangling at the end of
my sledge rope in an apparently bot
tomless crevasse. This is the end
decided, as / hung there, and though
you may not believe it the next
thought that flashed into my mind
was that I still had several pounds of
meat left and l regretted that hadn't
eaten at all, so strongly was ] obsessed
with the idea of food. 1 hung there
probably ten minutes, wondering
whether to unloosen the rope and drop
down or climb out if l could. ] finally
managed to climb hand over hand to
the ledge.
II then took the rope off the 'sledge
and made a rope ladder of it to get
across the crevasse, abandoning most
of my provisions. I crept forward
through the snow for the next three
weeks, barely alive, with the skin
worn off the soles Of my feet"
