Haugdahl U nj o a d S
His Record Break
ing Mount

Sig Haugdahls record breaking
dreadnaught. which he built and
piloted to all OF the worlds straight
away speed records from one to ten
miles last winter at Daytona Beach,
was uploaded in Birmingham Tues
day night and Immediately placed on
exhibition at the state fairgrounds
Wednesday, where the writer had an
opportunity to interview the speed
famous little Norwegian, who will
pilot his latest creation during the
automobile races Saturday.
His first statement was to the eff
feet that the next great speed
achievement which would startle the
world would be at the rate of 200
miles per hour. instead of state
ment that he thought his three
miles-per- minute" record would stand
for several years to come.
Asked why he thought some one
would drive at that rate of speed,
his short, terse reply was that Inn
rrovement in wind resistance over
the machine which he drove would
add that much speed to a motor with
no more horsepower than his Wis
consin Special.
Cut Wind Resistance
when l turned my attention TO
cutting down wind resistance, l used
a motor with less horsepower than
Tommy Milton had used on the beach
the year before and added little
better than "a miles per hour to the
speed of my machine" was his ex :
PLANTATION, land I feel that some one
will come along and at least add 90
miles per hour by improving on the
shape of the machine they build
around the motor,
81 used a hydroplane motor built
by the Wisconsin Motor Works,
which will develop ESQ horsepower
and weighs but 500 pounds. Around
this l built a body but 20 inches
wide, stream-lined every protruding
part and dropped the radiator four
inches lower than the tail, so that the
wind pressure would be downward
giving me better traction and at the
same time would help me steady the
car
THAT was the way I solved the
speed problem and I feel certain that
1 can return TO the beach and wait
! for the right kind of wind and
drive this same car at a greater rate
of speed"
Haugdahl also imported one Of
Louis Chevrolet's Frontenacs for the
| competition events and, while he
was paid large sum by the fair
/ association to drive his record
holding mount i'm exhibition record
trials, he will be forced to drive for
all the prize money he wins and
reckon with such veterans as Les
Allen with Oldfield's Submarine; Al
! Streigle with Simplex; Dave
Koetzla, one of the late speedway
sensations. with an Apperson. and
| Bob Maley with a Deusenberg.
Added bleacher space is being con-
sidered by the fair management to
take care of Saturdays attendance
and the infield will be opened to
park automobiles in preparation for
ono of the largest crowds that hat
ever gathered around the mile tract,
in the history of the fair.

Bible vs.. Newspaper.

The following statements as to the
relative value of the Bible and the
Sunday paper, were made by a Kan
sas city clergyman: The great APP
peal in all good newspapers Is in
their style of makeup. Their stories
are brief, and well told. But no liter
allure can be compared with the Bible!
There are no stories so well or brief
ly told as those in the Bible. The
Bible tells the true facts. 1t is i'm
partial. And it will be used as an
example of true literature'as long as
we have civilization. while some
newspapers are inclined TO color
