 MARCH WARMEST IN HISTORY OF THE WEATHER BUREAU

Washington, April 23.-Causes under

 early spring this year remains a mys-
 tery to weather bureau officials. But
 reports show, they say, that March was one or the War1nest in the history of tho country, breaking all known records for high temperatures at some weather bu- reau stations In the east One contributing reason for the high March record, they stated, was the suc-
 cession of bright clear days, during a
 month when blustery winds, clouds and
 storms usually prevail. But what caused
 this succession of bright clear days, the climatolog1cal division is unable to de- ternine.
 weather is said to be the sharp differ
 ence frequently prevailing in barometric pressure. This feature evidently was
 missing this season, although complete records had not as yet been compiled. Cold weather often resulted it was said
 from high barometric pressure in the colder regions of the north which
 created an air 'fhill'' down which cold
 air poured, like water running downhilI
 upon the United States.
 During the cold winter of 19fT-1S it
 was pointed out, air pressures were ex- tremely high in Alaska, building up a | ''hill' from which slid icy winds from the snow fields, bringing one of Amer ica's coldest winters.
 Vegetation this March advanced far
 beyond its usual growth and throughout the fruit regions of the middle west and southeast short freeze nipped
 many buds, causing what was thought
 at first to be disastrous damage of far

OANG . AN . hfhAlINU
 Larry Stone and his Premocar rac- ing car opened their racing season in Macon, Ga. last week after having been "rained out' at both Atlanta and Columbus.
 Birmingham race enthusiasts remem- Der Stone and his Premocar from last fall, he having raced al the state fair grounds. During the winter Stone re- mained here and rebuilt his Premocar racer at the Preston Motors Corpora tion factory He went over the giant racing machine from radiator to rear axle, replacing worn parts and read justing, the old. He painted the body a glittering gold, putting the premocar escutcheon on the hood in red. blue and gold, and having the number 10 painted on the side in huge black let ters. This shimmerir.s gold streak. in tearing around an oval track under bright sun, is enough to make the spectators believe that they are see ing comets in the daytime.
 Stone started his seasons racing in Macon last week and won every event in which he was entered, the closes. anyone coming to him being a dead heat with Puegot In the run-off the Premocar won. In Macon Stone tried to lower the track record, but failed in his attempt due to the condition of the course and to the fact that he has not gotten his Premocar tuned up to It's proper racing pitch as yet It will take several good, stiff races be- fore the Premocar will be reeling off the miles in Its accustomed fashion.
 Stone and his Premocar were sched- uled to race at Andalusia, Ala. yes terday and Mobile today. They then go to Savannah. Ga, on April 26 and work back to New Orleans by May s. After that, Stone will take his Premo- car north and race at many of the larger meets up there during the sum mer. As the sate fairs start in early fall, Stone will race at the fair meets
