Failure To Lower
Speed Record Tres
British Race King

VERNEUK PAN, CAPE OF
GOOD HOPE, April 22.-P-Cap-
tain Malcolm Campbell, famous
British automobile racer, today ex-
pressed dissatisfaction over his
failure to lower the worlds speed
record of 231 miles per hour, held
by Major H. D.. Segrave, in two
runs rel the measured mile course
here yesterday.
In his first run over the course
with a dying wind at his back, Cap
tain Campbell attained a speed of
224.58 miles and when the wind
that had delayed his attempt for
several hours, sprang up again, he
made only 212.51 on the return
trip, for an average of 21S.54 for
both runs.
While not attributing his fall
ure to defective track conditions.
Captain Campbell intimated that
this might have been the case
when he said he would make no
further attempt on the worlds rec
ord until bad stretches on the
course had been removed.
