 Daytona Beach, Florida, March 7- (UP) - What is the limit of speed on land
 Tens of thousands of enthusi- asts who have watched Sir Malcolm Campbell dicing with death at Daytona are wondering whether the limit has been reached. It has ' not. The lean tilted British ace is the first to deny this suggestion. Kaye Don, fellow English speed king, is another worlds record breaker who knows that the term inal velocity of an automobile on land has only just been hinted at by modern engineers.
 German engineers already have produced racing cars which have travelled at only a fraction of a mile under the 200-mark and that was on an ordinary road.
 "The main trouble at the mo- mant," says Sir Malcolm, lis that we are having to build car around an engine. 1 am using a 2,450 H. F. Aero motor, whereas if we had the time and the money l would i build a special car and then an en- zine to fit it."
 ''In the case of Bluebird, how lever. we have had to build mod ern streamlined body round the Ikialt motor designed for an aero- plane fuselage. If we could reduce weight all round we could increase maximum speed, increase the ac- federation and reduce braking dis tance."
 'sThe sands at Daytopa are as ! fine as any in the world and l should be long enough for speeds Hexcess of 400 miles an hour. W3th a car weighing more than tive tons, though, a tremendous distance is needed to move this in- ert mass toward a high velocity; and just as long 8 distance to stop this blue thunderbolt." #sSh a lighter car with an engine xleFsioping the same power could beproduced, it would take a lesser distance to reach maximum speed and could be stopped more quickly: Actually I can honestly say that feel Bluebird is travelling slowly when we are shooting the measured mile at 270 miles an hour :,
 A'The human element can control mechanical transport at far hlgner veIocities; The experience or our pilots when winning the Schneider trophy or setting a new worlds air speed record of more than 4oo miles an hour has proved that.
 "There is no worry of losing con- kciousness or control"
 In brief there are only two fac- tors controlling high speed travel; ahe engineer, and the creator or the perfect course.
 One day they will get together. NCopyright, 1885, by United Press)

CENTER JUMP MAY
 BE ABOLISHED < IN WESTERN LOOP
Continued Play After Goal Proposed By Many
 Coaches

Chicago, March 7-(UP)-Tw0 Important changes in basketball rules to make the game faster and and short players are likely to eliminate inequalities between tall evolve from the annual meeting of the National Association fo Basket ball Coaches in Chicago, April 3 to 6.
 N. 10. CNick) Kearns, western conference referee, said today he as certain that the center jump Is destined for the scrap heap.
 The tipoff would be supplanted, if many officials and coaches have their way, by the system used this year on the Pacific coast. A goal under that system does not halt play. It is up to the defensive team to get in and take the ball.
 Kearns has letters from 500 coaches who approve the plan.
 The other major rule change proposed would make it foul for a player to hold the ball more than 3 seconds on the post position, or pivot line. The object, like the 10- second rule adopted some years agfo, is to speed up the game.

LADY OF LOURDES BOWLING NOTES

Last Thursday night witnessed a complete reversal of form on the part of the leading teams.
 The great Princeton team bowed to the Dartmouth team in three straight games. The first two games were walk-aways for Dart mouth, but the last wound up in a tie and Princeton lost out in the roll-off. Not only that but A. J Masone was among the missing for the first time this season and he can always be counted on to roll big scores and as a result Dart mouth lost their only chance of breaking a couple of records.
 Tonight the Princeton team faces Joe Lombardi and Company and no doubt the Indian sign will be still on the leaders. Joe and his gang have knocked off the leaders six straight already.

NEW RIGHT HAND WALLOP' OFPOWER CLAIMED FOR ALP
"BuiId-Up" For ImpelIet- tiere Bout Gathers Speed
 at Orangeburgh
BY LAWTON CARVER l.,asa1 Dmaea GtnNp C0rrQGVnnrflqI

tUmAtcu EFGSS StuM OOrrGSpUHAGhAD Orangeburg, N. Y., March 7-- (UP)-Primo Camera has devel- oped 2e0-pound streak of vicious
 ness to be used against Ray I'm pellettiere when they meet in Mad | ison Square Garden March 15. He sticks out his left hand, tid- dles and feints his sparring part ners into position, then fires with a brand new right hand punch which lands with a thud that can
 be heard across the streets from Gus wilson's old training camp. In addition to the new right hand punch, the streak of viciousness in- cludes throaty basso groWl ana a distorted face.
 How much of this viciousness is feigned for visiting pressmen might be asked, but Broadway Bill Duffy, who owns a share of the sub-div- ided ex-champion, takes great pride in what he really considers a re- building of the docile former strong man of Italy into a fighter full of fire.
 "We're developing the killer in- stinct," said Broadway Bill. From now on the right will be used for something besides waving at blondes"
 It is barely possible that Camera will not need this punch which he has been practicing since Max Baer knocked him out last June for the title he prized so highly and held so briefly.
 They say the big Imp has fight ing heart about the size of bird seed, and he might leap the top rope the first time Camera twists his face and growls as he starts that right hand on its way with a
 zing, But the punch is there in
 case the big Imp surprises every
 body by making some threatening motions.
 The big Imp will stand as tall as Camera and weigh the same but he is a rank novice, with a record of fewer than a dozen fights, and only one of them against top notcher. He lost to the aging Tom my Loughran, whom he outweighed nearly a hundred pounds and tow cred over by. eight inches.
