 FUR NEXT FALL

That the A. A. A. has sanctioned the Arizona State Fair was the word re- ceived here yesterday by George Purdy Bullard, representative of the contest board of the three As in this state Outlaw races will be forgotten and friendly relations resumed through the efforts of Bullard, who recommended this action to the board
 We think the fiasco they had there is a good lesson to them," writes the national chairman in opening the local track to the A. A. A.
 Racing under the auspices of the as sociation was resumed throughout the country on the first of the month. By Bullards action it will again be pos sible for auto race fans to witness real races here in the autumn. Following is the letter to Bullard in reply to his acceptance to serve for the seventh year on the contest board: c. r. 3ullard.
 Goodrich Building,
 Phoenix, Arizona.
 My dear MT. Bullard:
 I am in receipt of your letter of March 25 and am pleased to note your acceptance of appointment as repre- sentative of the contest board for the ensuing year.
 l note your talk with MT. Sloan and would advise that you have absolutely nothing to do with either him or any other outlaw. The board is resuming control of automobile racing, etc., ex- actly where they left off.
 We will be pleased to sanction the Arizona State Fair on your recommen- dations and forget the past. We think that the fiasco they had there is a good lesson to them but it is only on your recommendation that we are do- ing this.
 With kind regards, I am,
 Very truly yours,
 R. KENNERDELL,
 Chairman Contest Board.

years service with the cavalry on
the eastern front, had been serious
ly wounded and was now attached
to the general staff in Berlin in
rather than a useful capacity, for,
apart from what he had learnt in
his own campaigning he seemed
singularly ignorant OF the develop
ment OF the military situation.
Particularly, his ignorance OF con-
ditions on the western front was
supreme. He was full to the brim
with the most extraordinary fables
about the British. He solemnly
assured me, for example-on the
faith of a friend of his who had
seen them-that japanese were

and he stared through his monocle

vexation-

the young man added. "I will drive
you to the station. We need not de-

who had remained silent under the
