RACE PROGRAM POSTPONED LIN
 ACCOUNT RAIN

Rather than attempt to stage a rac- ing program on track that would prohibit fast time, good driving and the staging of two of his feature events. Promoter Ed. A. Thilenius postponed the meet scheduled for yesterday af- ternoon until Sunday afternoon. The complete program as scheduled will be given on Sunday afternoon, February 24, starting at 145 o'clock sharp
 Attempts at racing yesterday after noon at the state fair grounds would have been correct imitation of an au tomobile attempting to make headway over an Arizona highway after a heavy rain, it is stated. There was just suf- ficient rain to make the track slippery and treacherous.
 Hundreds of people gathered at the fair grounds just prior to l o'clock, be- lieying that the program would be held, but MT. Thilenius had more than one thing to take into consideration. The safety of the men who had pledged themselves to take part in the various events meant far more to the promoter than the hundreds of dollars he refused by not holding the program yesterday afternoon.
 lc meet cOulu nave Deell uSiNl, Dul as stated previously, the racing would have been slow and uninteresting; drivers would be taking great chances and the motorcycle and automobile jumping events would have to have been scratched.
 The postponement was in keeping with Promoter Thilenius' plan to give Arizona automobile fans the best or nothing at all. The loss incurred by not holding the event yesterday will total several hundreds of dollars, inas- much as the expense of all persons here to take part in the program must nec- essarily be paid by the race promoters.
 Providing additional rain does not fall, the track will be in splendid con- dition for the races Sunday afternoon even better than it would have been yesterday had it not rained. Work was started by a corps of expert track men as soon as the weather cleared shortly after noon yesterday. Tickets for the meet will remain on sale at the downtown office established at the Central pharmacy, until Sunday morning, when the seat sale will be | transferred to the state fair grounds. | The program to be given Sunday af- ternoon will correspond, in every de- | tail, with that scheduled for yesterday The entire nine events will be run, with a possible one additional feature. for which Promoter Thilenius is now nego- | tiating.
 A musical program, the same as ar ranged for yesterday afternoon, will also be given tomorrow. This form ot | entertainment will continue through

travels begun five years ago when he ceased to give his personal attention to his large business interests.
 Mir. Danville is one of the men who signed the $100000,00 contract with the government for the lumber to be used in the national cantonments. His company, the Gresonia Nashville Lum- Der company being a member of the Southern Lumber association which has the contract.
 This is not the only government contract in which MT. Danville is an interested party. He is one of the largest stockholders in Motorlife-the preparation to remove carbon and save asoline-that is being used by the United States at the present time.
 An enthusiastic believer in Motorlife, Mir. Danville stated yesterday that it was guaranteed product and the fact that it is the only one used by the gov ernment places it in a class by itself. According to MT. Danville the saving of gas in it's use is from 25 to 50 per cent. It will be introduced in this state by F. H. Larsen, a friend of the southerners.
 Yhere is one subject which Mir. Dan- vile enjoys discussing far more than his business and that is the man he admire beyond all other - Colonel Roosevelt Friends of 30 years stand ing, the two men have hunted and
