Otto Walker of California Won Big
Dodge City Race.


Dodge City, Kan, July 5.-Otto
Walker, riding a Harley Davidson ma
chine, won the great Dodge City
motorcycle race Saturday and hung up
a new worlds record of three hours,
Onds for the distance. walker is from
Oakland, Cal, and won the race at
Venice in April, breaking the record
which had been made on the Dodge
City track July 4, 1914. Walker drove
the entire distance at a rate of 1856
miles an hour. as compared with an
average of 67.S9 miles per hour made
last year.
All motorcycle riders are accustom-
ed to hard luck, but of all the heart
breaking luck that be told at racing
of Marty Graves, Indian rider, who led
the field for the last one hundred
miles and with lap the lead looked
like a sure winner when he sailed
away on his last lap and smashed a
wheel on the back stretch.
Harry Crandall won second place.
Every record from ten miles up to
three hundred was smashed in the
race, pronounced by the motorcycle
experts to be the greatest dirt track
race ever ridden. Not a serious acct
dent marred the race, which was run
under perfect weather conditions for
lightning fast.
Carl Gowdy was third, Joe Wolter
was fourth, Leslie Parkhurst fifth, and
Alva Stratton sixth. a crowd of twelve
thousand saw the race, many being
kept away by the hard rain of Thurs
day night, which mace many roads in
the southwest impossible.

mile motor race before a crowd of six
teen thousand. He had the lead
throughout, except a brief period near
the 100-mile mark, when Eddie
O'Donnell, in a Duesenberg, set the
pace. The time was four hours and
Sc seconds. Although they failed to
make first place the Duesenberg team
had a great day of it, O'Donnell finish
ing second and Alley third. Billy
Chandler, driving a Duesenberg, got
the Beck Endurance Trophy, running
220 miles without a stop.
Resta, winner of the Chicago race,
went out in the 14Sth mile with a
broken oil line. The duel between
O'Donne11 and Rickenb;.cher was one
of the greatest in the history of the
racing game. Rickenbacher was never
more than lap and half ahead.
1t is feared that c. c. Cox, who was
injured when his car dashed over the
bank on the north turn, will die. Doc
tors fear his back is broken. Vic Nc
Graw, his mechanician, sustained a
broken shoulder. Just as the race

One of the most remarkable come
backs in baseball is Harry Covaleskie,
the left-handed pitcher of the Detroit
club. CovaleSkie was considered out
of major league baseball when five or
six years ago he was sent to the
Southern league For time his work
there was only mediocre. and those
responsible for his going there felt
satisfied that no mistake had been
made. But Covaleskie continued to
improve, and finally became star in
that company and Detroit drafted
him. He now is one of the best pitch
ers in the league and is very likely to
make a better record this year than
he did last season.
