Old "ses." world-famed Ford rae.
ing car OF 20 years ago, is back
again in the possession OF Henry
Ford. II has been placed in Mr..
Fords museum at Dearborn and
there will be preserved as a relic
Of the early days OF the automobile

The car arrived at Dearborn a
few days ago from the East. where
It has been on display. having

Return OF 1899" recalls the time
a score Of years ago when Henry
Ford himself was race driver.
Ford won race after race in all
parts OF the country. and there are
many today who will recall the
famous contest staged on October
10, 1901, when the worlds cham
pionship automobile races were held
at the Crosse Pointe Blue Ribbon
track, Detroit, and in which Ford
defeated Alexander Winton in a
io.mile race, finishing three.quar.
ters OF a mile ahead. The time for
the 10 miles was 10 minutes 20 as

for circular dirt tracks and n was
Ford who first broke the mile.a.

back in 1904 on an ice rink at
Baltimore Bay, Mich, covering the
mile In 80 As seconds.
when Ford withdrew from the
racing game to devote his attention
40 the manufacturing end Of his
great and growing business. he en-
trugted his race entries to such
drivers as Barney Oldficld, who
drove 1893" in many n race and
who christened II "old Faithful"

How well Ford racing cars per.

IROmping Around

Ry Ligtener.M

Why is Roxy SO popular with
part OF the radio audience and so
cordially hated by the remainder?
That question was brought to
our attention recently when the
same mail brought two letters, one
of them hailing the famous i'm
pressario as ''the king Of broa.-
casters" and the other a violent
denunciation of Roxy and an his
works.
Since then we have been wonder
ing, and tor a while it had us
stopped. But now we believe we
have it. Roxy is a favorite with
that part of the audience that
listens over the headphones or who
first made his acquaintance over
the headphones, while the loud
speaker fans as whole don't care
so much for him.
Roxy's style is always intimate
and persoal and his chatter is di-
rected towards the listeners in hos
pitaIs, shlft-ins and lonely folk
everywhere We are willing to bet
