Is No Accidout'' Drive.

The Federal Railways under Federal
control have taken action to put thru a
mo accident drive from October l8 to
81. This is period of two weeks which
would have no accident and we hope to
see that the railways will be successful
According to the past record this would
be impossible, but a large number of
accidents could surely be avoided if
more care would be taken by both the
passengers and employees

a i5-mlle heat for express cruisers. at
2.30, for the Detroit News trophy. both
OF the latter are handicap affairs and
are being handled by the Detroit
Yacht Club, the defending body, and the
gold cup committee. The reason for
putting the gold cup last Is that the
nearer sundown the smoother the
water, which increases the speed Of the
hydroplanes. The Detroit course lays
between Belle Isle and the American

ally smooth. with the exception OF the
upper end OF the course where II puts
