Segrave Made No Dent
In IL Records Held
By President Eight

When Major H. o. D. Segrave re-
turns to England with the monster
racing car In which he travelled 23l SO
miles per hour ON the sands Of Day
tona Beach, he will also take with
him two Of Americas former total Of
16 world records for automobiles.
But though America has lost two
Of It's former records, 1t still retains
not only large share of world speed
honors, but numbers among them
achievements which have practical
meaning and value for the average
motorist.
This is pointed out by the Bismarck
Motor Co.. Studebaker- Erskine dealer
here, which says american engineer
ing is still responsible for IA world
speed marks, three made by Harry
Miller's tiny racing cars and II by
strictly stock models OF Studebaker's
President eight.
These II world records held by the
President eight in many respects
mark the most important achieve
ment ever made by motor cars. Two
President roadsters travelled 10000
miles on the Atlantic City speedway
at sustained average speeds OF more
than So miles an hour. One roadster
finished In 26.326 minutes, and the
other finished three minutes later.
