LETTER FROM PROFESSOR DODGE

Battle Creek, Mich, August pa
I am sending another short letter
together with my thanks for the in
sertiop of the one which | SEN
i'm July. AT that time, I said thai
during the month of our absence
from Berea, we had slept for twenty
nights at a different place than the
night before. Since that time
twenty-three like changes have beer
made. This will convince your read
ers that we have been busy at some
thing. if il be no more than pack
ing and unpacking our suit cases
The majority of the time, since
nv last letter. was spent in my ma
tive county, Ashtabula, Ohio. The
visits were divided among many dlf-
ferent townships, but | gave spec
ial attention TO the place OF my
nativity. | was a regular tramp
and as such adapted myself to the
hot weather which prevailed mos
of the time. Except for the many
changes in people, am better ac'
duainted with that township thar
| ever was during the nearly thirty
years that | lived there. There
is not a mile of road in il that | have
not lately been over. To say that
the experiences Of that visit were
interesting, is putting it too mild
~. Many of them were thrilling
| feel as though il were almost like
finding the Fountain Of Youth.
For the past week, Mrs. Dodge
and have been guests at the great
Sanitarium here. We are about tC
leave for Harvey, Ill. We have the
pleasure Of being in Touch with
President and Mrs. Frost and some
of the students of whom over for

One night there was an informal
social gathering of the Bereans
This proved to be very pleasant
occasion. We are looking forward
with great interest to the prospect
of our visits for the next few weeks
in Northern Illinois and the attend
ance upon the National Encamp-
ment at Kansas City, Missouri; bu'
there is nothing in the future tt
which we are looking with so keer
anticipation as the renewal OF ole
associations at Berea. could cas-
lily recall the names of scores, ye:

ing to them.

The principal advantage which the
Cincinnati track has over the other
auto courses lies in the arrangement
OF the turns, OF which there arr four.
the track being oval In shape. While
the slope on the curves reaches a slant
Of 40 degrees in places. these portion. .
are reached by such easy gradations
that drivers are not compelled to les
sen their speed In making the circuit
In the early experiments. before the
track was entirely trimmed for racing,
Billy Chandler. driving Crawford

an hour. and afterwards expressed
himself as being certain that he could
do better than that time when the
track was In perfect shape.

terprise combined all the best and
safest features OF the two other promi-
nent wood tracks. and added to them
such advanced ideas as were suggest
cd by drivers and other experts who
had had experience on the other big

suit is that the Cincinnati Speedway 10
