FUNERAL SERVICE
HELD TODAY FOR
VALLEY PIONEER

4. G. Tingman, 50, we'll known to
Valley pioneers through various
construction work which he direct
ed here in the early days, was bur
led this afternoon in San Diego.
Tingman died at the Half Moon
mine i'll the Chocolate mountains
some time Thursday night, his body
being found by his partners, Frank
and Alfred Dawson of Del Mar,
with whom Tingman had been do.
ing assessment work on the minc
for two weeks. They brought the
body to Brawicy, where an inquest
held Saturday afternoon establish
ed the fact that death was due TO
heart disease.
The deceased is survived by his
wife who lives at Encinatas, near
San Diego.
Tingman had been interested III
mining in and near Imperial Val
ley for many years and for several
years was station agent at Indio.
According to "Scotty' Russell,
Tingman sank the first we'll in I'M
perial, in October 1900, at Imperial.
Tingman had driven several well in
the vicinity of Indio and was en-
gagged by the California Develop
ment Company to see if water could
not be found in Imperial Valley.
The well was sunk at n point
near the first church in Imperial,
and was drilled to depth of over
700 feet, without success. Water
for the well-drilling crew was
brought overland from point
known as s''Pot Holes on New
River. At that time there was no
settlement in the valley.
Tingam was one of the earliest
settlers at lndio, and was known.
according 10 ilusseii, as the "tath
er of Indio. During the big celc
bration thera two years ago, Ting
man was Il conspicuous figure, and
the attention and courtesies shower
ed upon him at that titme were
evidence of the high esteem in
which he was held by all who knew
him.

TERRIBLE" TOMMY
GIVES RICHFIELD
OIL THE CREDIT

When 'Terrible' Tommy Milton
ground out 200 laps at the Culver
City track recently with an nv.
erage speed of l26.SS miles per hour
closely pressed by Harry Hartz
Peter de Paolo and Bob McDonogh,
it made the 10th consecutive A. A.
A. national championship victory
for the "Gasoline of Power with
in the last two years. This un-
broken string of victories III addi-
tion to earlier victories achieved
at indianapolis, Kansas City and on
other tracks of importance gives
Richfield the distinction of being
the most consistent winner of any
gasoline that ever competed ON an
American speedway.
c. NJ. Fuller, president of the
Riehfield Oil company was one of
the first to reach Milton's side
with congratulations at the end of
the gruelling $50 miles, and Mil
ton S reply, "Pd never think of
using anything but Richfieldo was
indicative of the esteem in which
the Gasoline of Power is held
~ 'iiS Aa1liiS lldttlHilN L tltl dt
Paelo, the daring Young driver who
dogged Milton s heels during good
many laps, and Bob Me Donogh, win
ner of third place, were also en-
thusiastic in praise of Richfield.
Since Richfield first competed in
n speedway event it is interesting
to note how one world S record af-
ter another has ''gone by the
boards. Taking the famous In
dianapolis track rs an illustration,
we find that in 1915 q speed rec
ord of 1914 miles per hour was es-
tabhshed which stood unmolestcd
during the years of 1916, 1919 and
1920. In 1921, Tommy Milton, us
ing Richfield gasoline tore to the
goal with new record of S9.62
miles per hour with Richfield in his
gasoline tank. In 1928 Milton again
using the "Gasoline of Power this
time in the new l22 2-ineh motor es-
tablished another world s record of
9l.54 miles per hour and 1924 found
Joe Boyer driving a winning race
at the speed of 1924 miles per hour
for still another record.
What the pace will be at Indian.
apolis this year is something no one
can even guess. With the wholesale
smashing of records that has taken
place at Culver City in the two
races thus far held on the track, il
is almost certainty that one of
these self-same pilots Will set new
record fer the big 500 mile 'iatrrnas-
tiondl event

MODERN ART HIT
BY HIGH COSTS
Even Canvas Used Has TO Be
CuTtailed

Paris, Nov. tP,--The high cost
Of living seems to have hit modern
art a hard blow. The searchers for
some new school Of painting have
had to 50 economize in canvas and
paint the autumn salon Is reduced
to about half its usual proportions,
What there Is Of It Is sufficiently
striking, however. The fun length
portrait Of n woman In the role OF
Ocdipucs with indigo blue blood
running out OF her eyes. Is the
chief monstrosity, 1t Is accompan-
led by the usual dcbauche Of flesh
athletic and obese.
There are some ambitious eXbi-
bits that are highly estimated by
their authors. Two OF the pieces
are ticketed 5000 francs each and
It Is declared that they have been
sold at that figure.
Several critics say that the show
gives evidence that modernism In
art is going stale and that perhaps
since canvas and paint come sc
high extravagancies will become
less predominant in the autumn
show.
