stretch in the lead. The crowd was on
its feet most of the time. The race
was for 100 miles. At 56 miles Aitken
stopped for a tire change. Twenty
seconds later he was off, but the fee
ing Resta was nearly a lap ahead OF
him.
AitKen was soon racing at his old
pace, facing the task of overtaking
Resta, when the Italian was seen to
slow up on the back stretch and at GO
miles he limped into his pit. A speedy
change, and in less than 20 seconds he
was in flight again. Aitken goto 4 sec.
onds lead on Resta, the next lap Resta
cut it down to 2.5 seconds and IL ap-
peared as though sc miles would see
the two running radiator to radiator.
But IL never came Resta slowed
entering the back stretch and his pace
dwindled and dwindled. When he
reached the third turn he stopped. A
broken crankshaft had put him out OF
the race. Resta and his mechanic
valiantly pushed the silenced race car
nearly half way around the course to
the grandstand, but the thousands of
spectators did not even greet the
heroic gladiator and splendid sports
man with faint cheer.

In the event last May Sarles drove
three of Louis Chevrolet's creations
The one in which he started the race
went out with a broken steering
knuckle, but Sarles brought it to a
standstill on the green beside the
track on the back stretch without a
scratch, and after deciding that the
car could not be repaired in time to
re-enter the competition, he ran across
the infield to the pits and climbed into
another car that was making a short
stop at the pits.
This car went in the ditch within a
few laps, but, Sarles came to bat again
and, with some marvellous driving, put
the car on the side lines without in
jury. Then he had the nerve to enter
the race as relief driver for one OF
his teammates.
In road race in California Sarles
swerved his car of the course and
hurdled a wall of sandbags to avoid
hitting a woman and child who were
crossing the track. Thrills have played
a great part in his racing life. But of
the course he Is gentle and unassum4
ing. He Is married and his wife Is his
companion on all his racing expedi-
tions.
Sarles will pilot Duesenberg in the
coming race.

Something new in county-fair fea-
lures was reported to the dairy d.
vision, United States Department of
Agriculture, from Greenwood county
8. c., where show OF association
bulls was held In connection with the
annual Greenwood fair. This show at.
tracted % out of a total of 25 bulls
owned by eight bull associations in
the nearby communities, and these anil
mails attracted much favorable COM
ment among fair visitors.
The bulls were brought to the show
at the expense of the fair, and, consid-
eyable prize money was offered for the
winners of the different classes. In
addition to the awards for the best
bulls in classes under two years, two
to three years, three years and over,
and grand champion bull, prizes were
also offered for various special classes,
such as best trained bull, bull In best
breeding condition, and the best group
OF bulls from any one association. The
judging of these special classes was
followed with a great deal of inter
est, and the excellent condition and
ease of management of the winning
bulls in these classes was an object
lesson for some of the onlookers.
AS indicated by the number Of asso-
Citations exhibiting bulls, the bull asso-
citation movement has made substan-
t1al progress in this territory. In Alb

It was only few years ago, as a
mere youth, that Sarles was promot-
ing and plotting cars in race meets
over the half-mile tracks at county
fair grounds in Indiana. He was conf
dent he would graduate to the big
league of racing and within short
time was riding with several of the
better drivers as mechanician,
Then he got a car Of his own and
went right out and made good. Proba-

spills as Sarles and come out Of the

something always happens and many
believe he Is jinxed in his home state
but he always gives the natives a

INDIANAPOLIS, IND. - Automobile
j race crowds sure single out their
heroes. It will be interesting to note
the manner in which the crowd that
will witness the Ninth International
5OO-mile race, to be held at the Indi-
annapolis Motor Speedway, Monday,
MAY 30, acts toward Ralph DePalma
and sDario, Resta, speed champion In
1916.
Each driver has won an Interna-
tional race at Indianapolis and both
have pushed their mounts to the pits
after their cars had broken up, with
victory within their reach. Their
achievements have been parallel In
many ways-but the crowds have Isr-
formed differently for each.
Ralph DePalma became hero in
defeat at indianapolis in 1912. With
two laps to go a connecting rod on his
living Mercedes broke, tossed him out
of the race and literally knocked the
500. 900 purse out of his hands. De-
Palma Jumped out of his car and
rushed 1t down the home stretch TO
his pit amid the cheers OF the excited
thousands. When Joe Dawson, in No
8. whizzed past him, DePalma waved
him on to victory-and kept on push
ing his disabled car-and smiling, Joe
Dawson won the race-but Ralph De-
palma was the hero of the day.
THAT'S that But with Resta II was
different. s-Resto and Johnny Aitken
were providing the major portion of

MINERAL EXPERT
VISITS ALABAMA
D. A. Lyon, Chief Metallur-
qist of Bureau of Mines,
Talks of Work

ID. A. Lyon, CHER metallurgist OF
the United States bureau of mines
is in the district in the course OF one
of his periodical visits to the thirteen
mine experiment stations in the coun-
try. They come under his jurisdiction
and he visits them from time to time.
Establishment of the experiment
station at Tuscaloosa this spring
will occasion his frequent coming 10
Birmingham.
Mr.. Lyon says the work of the mine
experiment station is of general ma
ture and Is for the purpose of devel-
oping new uses Of raw material ana
for the preservation of natural re-
sources. The work of the bureau OF
mines extends to all the metals and
reaches from the mining of the
metals to their ultimate use in max
ing the finished product.
In Alabama, for instance, the Tus-
caloosa station experts will endeavor
to discover uses for ores which now
appear to be unusable in furnace
practice. They will study coking prac-
tices in Alabama and see II methods
that will produce better coke on
more economic basis may not be de-
vised.
The work will extend to furnace
practice. The maner of handling coke
at the furnace might be improved on
by study of methods now in us and
suggestions for betterment that
might arise from observation of pres
ent methods.
Admires Underwood
Mr.. Lyon has high regard FOR
Senator Underwood and praised his
Intelligent effort in locating the ex-
pertinent station at Tuscaloosa. In
cidentally he said that the nation
realizes that Mr. Underwood is presi-

PROPERTY OWNERS
WILL LOSE RIGHTS.
Appraiser Yancey Gives 0pin-
ion on Auditorium Site
If Changed

Original owners of property con-
demned for the municipal auditorium
will have no rights of repossession
IL another site is decided upon, ac-
cording to an opinion given o. H.
Horton, secretary of the Birmingham
real estate board, by George w.
Yancey, one of the original apprais-
ers of the site.
Mr. Yanceys opinion is as follows:
I'VE note that you have been
asked by number of persons for
an opinion on the following state
ment: In the event the present au-
ditorium site is proven unsuitable,
and it is determined by the city not
to use the site for auditorium pur-
poses, what rights, IL any, have the
original owners regarding the repos-
session of the condemned property
I'VE are of opinion that in event
the city determines not to use the
present auditorium site for the erec-
ton of an auditorium thereon, and
determines to use same for other mu-
nicipaI purposes, that the former
owners, as such, have no rights in
the matter nor have they any rights
OF repossession or resembling the en-
forced sales.
we could write you at length in
this connection. giving our reasons
for our opinion and citing authori-
ties. However, for the present pur-
poses we deem that you do not desire
a general discussion of the matter.
Yours very truly,
GEORGE w. YANCEY.
Mr.. Yancey has been previously
interviewed as opposing the present
site of the auditorium, and. has said
that while acting as appraiser ne
