time we ever had gone by autOmo-
bile. 1t is a much nicer trip, and
in addition when one arrives in Flor
ida, he finds he needs car every
time he moves, so that from a
standpoint of economy and con-
venience, the car is a necessity.
We were particularly impressed by
road conditions on the trip south
ward and return. We never left
the pavement for the 1860 miles
from indianapolis to Daytona
Beach, except for one temporary de-
tour of six miles in Georgia. The
road surface is good for any speed
one may care to travel, the curves,
except for the mountainous country,
are uniformly wide and easy. The
courtesy of the police in the cities
through which we passed can't be
passed unnoticed.
In Chattanooga, it is not at all
unusual for motorcycle officer to
draw up alongside the out-of state
motorist as he comes into town,
ask where he wishes to go-and
then lead him right to the spot.
Atlanta police also went out of their
way to accommodate us in finding
parking space.

MANY SERVICES
PERFORMED IN
HOMES BY ICE
Preserving Food Only One
OF Many Services 1t
Will Perform.

Uses Of ice, as pointed out by the
Polar Ice and Fuel Company, 1000
Northwestern avenue, are so many
in addition to the great job Of pre-
serving food that families can not
well do without it.
One does not think of all the ways
in which it serves until these are
called to attention, for ice in addi-
ton, is a decoration to the table,
help in time Of illness or injury,
an aid to cleanliness. and many
other things Ice, for instance:
Freshens wilted vegetables and
flowers.
Garnishes table dishes and bright
ems the table.
Cools drinks and adds to their
attractiveness.
Freezes salads and deserts quickly
and smoothly.
Wrapped in cheesecloth, removes
grease from soup.
Melted, makes pie crusts short
and light.
Rubbed on the face, improves the
complexion.
Rubbed on bald spots, stimulates
hair growth.
Helps restrict large pores
Relieves a headache.
Applied to inf1amed tissues, re-
Ieves pain.
Rubbed on chest and throat, re-
Geves Group and sore throat.
Melted, gives pure soft water for
washing dainty things.
Hardens chewing gum for re-
moving from fabrics.
Furnishes water for batteries at
less cost than distilled.
Reduces fevered conditions.
Quickly cools rooms.
And does many other household
tasks.
But, after all, the big job of ice
Is to preserve food. Because of its
constant temperature and its ability
TO maintain the proper humidity
balance it performs this task better
than any other means yet dis
covered.
Ice really is very inexpensive. A
properly constructed refrigerator,
Well-iced, provides the best faciIi-
ties for preserving and serving food.
Polar cash and carry stations are
located in almost every neighbor-
hood and a large delivery depart
ment is maintained, serving many
sections of the city. Thus it is
convenient to everyone to secure
Polar service.

Immediately his return journey.
NorthWard he came at r-increas-
ing speed. When he reached Mile 5
the impact was recorded, and again
he crossed the wire at Mile q.
Bores Through Air
This time was changed into miles
an hour and the average of the two
runs was computed, and given to
Campbell minute after he had
reached the north end of the course.
His average, as is we'll known, was
245.7 miles an hour for a mile. The
old record was made by Major Sir
Henry Seagrave, in March, 1929.
23136 miles an hour in the Golden
Arrow.
Now, when Campbell reaches the
timing stand his car is going full
out" as he terms it. 1t is true
there is the noise of the exhaust,
but combating that is the swish OF
projectile with a frontal area of
about twelve square feet and
length of twenty-five feet. Such
projectile is bound to make consid-
cradle noise in boring through the
atmosphere, for it must literally
make hole through which it passes.
The result is a mingling of the roar
of lion and the swish of the pro-
jectile, and frankly the swish is
more pronounced than the roar.
Low Humming Heard
The cars coming is heralded by
low humming with the car in the
distance, increasing in volume until
it causes the air to vibrate. Almost
before one can realize it, the car
grows from nothing to large OBJ
Ject, passes and as rapidly dinin-
isheS to nothing again, for it is
covering a mile in less than Is sec

speed and Of driver courage, as we'll,

beach was damp in spots.
Campbell was all business when
he arrived at Daytona Beach.
Twelve days from arrival time, he
had done the record and was pack
ing up for his return to England.
The whole affair was handled
smoothly by the city and everything
went off like clockwork.
Like all meets of this sort, it was
in the charge and under the sane
ton of the contest board of the
American Automobile Association,
with Warren Baker of Jacksonville,
Fla, in active charge of all details.
Besides myself, ODDS Porter of In
dianapolis, was there as the timer.
On the other side of the fence was
Bill Sturm of Indianapolis, who
acted as manager for Campbell and
for the city.

Speedway Official Tells of
Tests Conducted at
Daytona Beach.
BY T. E. MYERS,
Vice President and General Manager OF
the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

Some one asked me recently what
the spectators sensation was in
watching Captain Malcolm Camp
bell, English speed king, break the
worlds land speed record. 1 had
just returned from Florida, where
at Daytona Beach, had acted as
referee for the beach speed trials.
What did it sound like when the
Campbell Bluebird went by the tim
ing stand?" another friend asked.
The last question embodies in its
answer, the answer to the first. One
would think, off hand, that. the
Bluebird motor, with a bore of 54
and stroke of SIS inches, super
charged, would make such a deaf
ening noise that it's roar would be
the outstanding impression on ones
mind. But such isn't the case.
Picture a nine-mile stretch of
beach. At it's edge to the east is
the Atlantic On the western edge
is a succession of dunes, varying
from two feet to perhaps ten feet
high The course over which the
car is timed, is between the fourth
and fifth milepost of a nine-mile
stretch. At each mile there is a
marker, numbered from zero to nine.
Campbell started from the north
end of the course, gathering speed
slowly. AS he reached Mile 4, his
car crossed the timing wire and the
impulse was recorded on the In
dianapolis Motor Speedway timing
machine, which is the only machine
used at Daytopa Beach. This ma
chine, and the officials of the meet,
are in a stand at Mile 5, the end
of the measured mile.
AS the Bluebird crossed the wire
at Mile 5, the impact again was
transmitted to the timing apparatus
and the exact time was printed on
the tape. The time between the
two mileposts is the time of the
record trial. BY aid of a Monroe
calculating machine, this time is
speedily translated into miles an
hour.
Immediately the Bluebird passed
Mile S, Captain Campbell decelerat-
ed gradually, so that by the time he
reached Mile 8, he had his car well.

twenty miles an hour, dropping
down to ten, as he made wide

 There has been no reply to date from Cole Chisel, manager Of Bearer. But neighbors to the camp of Paul Bearer report haV- ing heard several salvos fired from lightartillery. If 1t Is true that Bearer has been firing weapons at himself, he will be barred from the tournament at once, according to Boxing Commissioner Lou Pole.
 "The other fellows so far as l know" said Commissioner Lou Pole, "have been adhering to every rule. I understand that Harry Monster has been so conscientious about his training that he has de- sisted from his old habit of crank ing his car in first gear.
 "I know personally that Ray Pacious, whose trick of falling downstairs in the company Of pianos in order to sharpen up his left, has abandoned that plan in order to give the others a talr l shake.

GAMER AMBITIOUS FOR SECOND CRACK AT HEBREW HEAVY

New Haven, July 31.-On the opinion that he can beat Bob Olin, New York Hebrew light heavy weight sensation in return bout, Al Gainer, New Haven dusky war rior, announced to-day that he will seek a return engagement with the New Yorker through his manager. Dick Gray. Gainer was beaten by Olin at the White City stadium last Monday night by one point margin, the referees score card after 10 rounds standing 43 to AZ in favor of the Gothamite. Gather is confident that If he meets Olin again he will knock him out.
 Matchmaker Al Weill Is in town to day in conference with Gray, and report has 1t that a return bout between Olin and Gainer may be staged at the West Shore enclosure 8 week from tonight. Gainer is willing to meet Olin at IT 1-2 per- cent of the gate receipts, giving the New Yorker part of his percentage again with him.
 Weill stated this morning that he is working on staging a return DOuL DuI ID llaNihb H hN"b oN ble for another appearance. Olin believes that he Is entitled to a larger percentage following his vic tory and is seeking almost twice the amount that he received pre- yiously. However another meet ing with Olin's representatives are scheduled for tonight and 1t Is ex- 'pected that Olin will sign for the bout since Gainer announced that he is willing to take smaller per centage.
 Gainer realizes that he must de- feat Olin If he ever expects to meet Maxie Rosenbloom the worlds light heavyweight champion in q title bout, and with that criterion to be taken as fact, a return me- lee with the New Yorker should be a thriller.
