CAMPBELL BETTERS
272 MILES AN HOUR
Three World Speed Records
Are Smashed by Daring
British Driver.
RID, SETTING NEW RECORD.

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla, Febru-
British race driver who yesterday
hung up three new world land speed
records, announced definitely today
he would make no more speed trials
here this year. He will leave Tues
day for New York to sail for Eng
land March 3.
BY the Associated Press.
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla, February
23-Three new world land speed rec
ords were to the credit today of Sir
Malcolm Campbell, daring British race
car driver, and he thought seriously of
trying for two more.
With new flying start records for l
kilometer, l mile and S kilometers to
top more than quarter of century
of thrilling racing and narrow escapes
on the roaring road the 48-year- old
Britisher now wants to try for new
standing marks for / kilometer and l
mile.
Whether he makes any more speed
trials now or decides to sail for England
shortly, will depend, he said, upon how
soon he RECEIVERS from an injured left
arm, sprained while making repairs to
his giant Bluebird racing car week
ago.
d ETURNING to his hotel immedi-
II ately after establishing the new
marks, Campbell was compelled to
summon a physician to treat his arm
and bandage it.
In making his thunderous runs over
the hard-packed sands yesterday,
Campbell gathered in new records Of
2463 miles an hour over one kilo-
meter; 272.108 over mile and 257 1885
over five kilometers to bring to five the
number of world land speed records he
possesses He already holds the record
Of 242.751 over five miles and 238.669
over ten kilometers. A kilometer is ap-
proximately f1ve-eighths of a mile.
Campbells previous records for the
first three distances were 251.340 for
one kilometer; 253.968 for one mile and
247941 for five kilometers.
IN ESTABLISHING new mark for
l. the measured mile, the racer COW
cred the distance for an average
elapsed time on both runs of 1880
seconds. His previous mile record was
1417 seconds.
A veritable food of congratulatory
messages poured in on the Britisher
today from all parts of the world.
AS he read them, he toyed with two
good luck tokens that dangled from his
neck on a small gold chain. They
were st. Christopher's emblem of the
Roman Catholic Church. He said he
was not a member of that church, but
carried the tokens in all his races.

A CANNERY to utilize Kenne-

wick products from the early
long green asparagus thru the
fruit season to the wonderful
pears-promoted, financed, owned
and operated by the growers them
selves seems to be a dream which
stands bright chances for fulfill
ment. Growers up and down the
valley are seeing possibilities in
such a plan and have indicated
their belief by substantially coop
Grating with the movement. Spon-
sored by few farseeing grass
raisers, the usual objection that
the selling agencies or the bust
nessmen are attempting to "put
something" over the farmers, has
been completely eliminated. 1t
