HOWARD ID GIVE FORTUNE WHEEL ONE MORE WHIRL Veteran Race Driver En- ters 500-Mile Event At
 Indianapolis on
 May 31

Indianapolis. March 3-Ray Howard, veteran driver who attempted to come back in the last Indianapolis 5Oo-nile race. after an absence from the speed sport of Tcore than ten years. has elected to give Che wheel of fortune another whirl this season, and has entered the eighth an- nual international 50o-mile race on the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Monday, ] May s1.
 Howard will place his reliance upon one : of the Peugeot fliers built for the 1914 Grand Prix of Lemans that was called off due to the outbreak of the late world war Arthur Duray. in a duplicate of this whippet of the gasoline sport, finished second to Rene Thomas in the Indianap- olis contest of 1914, with an average of sc. S9 miles per hour. consequently Howard is thought to have an excellant chance for first honors.
 In the elimination trials preceding last years Indianapolis race, Howard demon started that he has lost none of his sicsl and cunning, qualifying his mount at 8 speed of 95 miles an hour, a very diffi- cut achievement on the brick turns of the Indianapolis track. The race itself, however. found him out of luck, oiiing trouble developing in the first few laps and persisting throughout the remainder of the fray.
 To members of the racing fraternity, Howard is known as the Beau Brummel fvf the speed sport, his sartorial triumphs Being the hopeless envy of his rivals. Add to perfect attire carefully waxed motfs- tache and grooming at the hands or a

 The necessity of prompt action and the danger of delay in the matter of life in surance are strikingly shown in the case of a prominent engineer who passed away recently in New York He was a good risk, and his application for insurance totaling $7Oo0O0 was readily granted, the amount being divided among eight com panies. One day an agent called at his office to deliver the policies and collect the first premiums. But the insurant had gone home indisposed an hour pre- viously, and before the agent could con- nect with his client the latter had been attacked with influenza, which developed into pneumonia and speedily ended his life As the policies had not become eff fective, the estate will not receive one dollar of the nearly three-quarters of a million that might have been added to it.

 Howard is recognized as a crack driver and his ability at the wheel is not tie least discounted because of his affecta- tions. In the forthcoming Indianapolis hve-century, he is expected to figure as a serious contender all the way.
