Cadillac Eight Covers
74H Miles in 1:12:38

Seventy-four and one-half miles in
l hour, IL minutes, 3S seconds is the
new road record for motorcars be-
tween Denver and Colorado Springs,
Colo. 1t was made recently by a Cadil-
lac Eight, driven by Harold Brinker.
This remarkable dash from one city
to another was made at an average
speed or 81 " miles per hour. Done by
a stock car not built for racing work,
1T was faster, by almost 10 minutes,
than q noted racing driver made
three weeks previous in a racing car
built expressly for speed.
This is the third time that the Cadil-
lac Eight, with Brinker driving, has
performed speed stunts out of the or
dinary in Denver territory A few
months ago Brinker drove the car
against II others in a road race from
Denver to Laramie, Wyo., 1872 miles.
The time was hours, 55 minutes, 10
seconds. and the average speed close to
A miles per hour. The Cadillac fin
ished Is minutes ahead of it's nearest
rival, and S3 minutes ahead of the
best previous time over the same
route.
Prior to this the same driver, with
a Cadillac Eight. had raced a Union
Pacific train from Denver to Chey-
enne, covering 116 miles to 112 by
the train, and beating the latter by
two minutes. The average speed on
this occasion was above so miles az
hour.

SALARY MATTERS
TO BE ADJUSTED
Dr. Schaeffer Makes Some Sug-
geStions to Teachers and
Directors of State

School directors and teachers are
urged to settle differences over pay
ment of salaries which have arisen
because of the postponement of the
date of opening of the schools due
to the outbreak OF infantile paralysis
by DR.. Nathan C. Schaeffer, State sup
erintendent of public instruction., in
circular issued to school authori-
ties.
1t appears that there have been
many inquiries made for interpreta-
ton of the clause in the school code
that districts shall be liable for salar-
les when it is necessary to close
schools unless otherwise provided in
contracts. In some districts there are
stipulations in contracts that teachers
are to be paid only for the service
rendered, but in others arrangements
are different.
Directors and teachers should try
to adjust their differences in the most
amicable way possible" says Dr.
Schaeffer in his letter. "An epidemic
causing the closing of all the schools
of the State was certainly not contem-
plated when the present school code
was enacted nor are State revenues in
sight by which the Legislature might
loss due to the closing of the schools
on account of infantile paralysis"
A notice has also been issued to the
effect that school districts 'in which
there are less than twenty minors be-
tween the ages of fourteen and six
teen employed, need not open contin-
uation schools"

Expert Collecting Data
on High School Locations
For Committees Use

Interesting data on the cost and de-
STABILITY of various sites which have
been under more or less tentative con-
sideration for the proposed new High
school, is being gathered by realty
experts for presentation Tuesday at a
joint meeting of the High school COM
mittee of the school board and the
citizens committee from the Chamber
of Commerce.
While the recommendations that
will be made to the board by the
special committee are as yet not a
matter for publication, it is under
stood that the report of the commit
tee consisting of President A. Carson
Stamm and DR.. F. e. Downes, the
city superintendent, will be practically
adopted as it stands. This calls for
the erection of a new girls central
High school. the en1arging of Tech
nical High school for the accommo-
dation of the boys only, and the con-
struction of three junior High schools.
The board yesterday accepted the
resignation of William G. Pike, n
Technical High school janitor but his
successor was not named. It was de-
cided tco that children who start to
school this Fall will be admitted dur
ing the first two weeks in October.
