SPEEDWAY CIRCLED BY HARMON CAR AT
 REAL DIZZY CLIP

Sometime ago two Indianapolis club men disagreed regarding the possible speed of the new series Marmon 34 One man contended that a stock Marmon tour ing car could circle the two and one-half mile Indianapolis speedway from standing start at the rate of 60 miles an hour for the frs ttw and one-half miles. The other insisted that this could not be done. A wager was made. and there arose a warm argument.
 Nordyke and Marmon Company offered its services to settle the wager, and on Thursday, March Il, furnished stock Marmon 34, seven-passenger demon strator belonging to the Indianapolis branch of the company. to try out the speed problem A crowd of interested spectators, including motor experts, news paper men and the enthusiasts who made the wager journeyed to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway to witness the trial.
 At o'clock a drizzIing rain succeeded the bright sunshine. Besides this stiff gale blew up the track toward the start ing wire, and conditions were judged un- favorable. However, the car with it's top and windshield up, and with it's side cur tains raised and buttoned tight, made the two and one-half mile circuit in two minutes and twenty-two and two-fifths seconds from a standing start, or at the rate of 63.2 miles per hour.
