MANY crackups in his dirt
A'A track days have made Mauri
Rose a careful driver, and there
fore a real threat in the 1885 Five
Century. He finished second last
year, 81 seconds behind Cum
mings, driving a beautiful race. He
has the Four Wheel Drive which
led the race for 1877 laps last year.
Mauri isn't afraid to step 'em up,
and if the car stands up he will
give the others a battle all the

Two consistent veterans who
also figure prominently in the
books Of pre-race dopeSterS are
Wilbur Shaw, Indianapolis star
and Beau Brummel of the roar

once and fourth once, and Lou
Moore, who has second and two
consecutive thirds to prove that
he's about due for a victory. Both
have good cars, Shaw a new

VETERAN drivers believe that
V it requires luck to keep a car
functioning all the way, but also
feel. that pilot must possess
ability to take advantage of his
luck if it holds we'll for him.
They realize that d drivers
chances are no better than his
car. and that the condition of mis-
mount generally depends upon the
fitness of the garage mechanic
who put it together. More than
passing concern also is given to
pit management. the ground"
brains behind the actual run
ming of the race, and the riding
mechanician who, if he knows his
business, can be of great assist
snce to his driver.
Despite these known chances for
mechanical and human failure,
every racing fan has a Sentimen-
tai favorite. This year the honor
is shared by two men-Tony Gu
lotta and Wild Bill Cummings.
Wild Bill, the INDIANAPOLIS flash,
a veteran at 27 and winner last
year. has been the peoples

full, and as long as his car holds
together he gives the customers
what they want-speed and thrills.

year But he has an excellent car,
the same which finished last years
grind with little effect from the
wear and tear; the same garage
mechanic, Cotton Kenning, who
has built four winners; the will
to win. and what's more. an utter
disregard for precedents and
jinXes.

with several years accumulation of

smoke in Los Angeles Friday at
cremation ceremonies marking one
of the most important steps in dis

The old bonds and coupons will

mated, district officials said. A
total of 100000 coupons will be

Wirin, former counsel for
the American Civil Liberties
Union, has been appointed
counsel for the National Labor Re-
lations board.
Two years ago during labor dis
turbances which arose to threat
ening proportions, Mr.. Wirin was
actively engaged with what was
locally considered most radical
if not worse-group of workers.
The incidents eliminated with vir-
tual uprising of the better resi-
dents of this entire territory which
resulted with Mr.. Wirin's depart
ure from this area.
In view of this strong public an
tipathy against him, we feel that
his association with the admins
tration will be a severe liability to
democracy. You are doubtless
aware that there are many staunch
supporters of the administration
here, many who pay no heed to
claims of radicalism in the Demo-
cratic party.
When, however, a man of this
stamp becomes publicly associated
in such an important capacity, We
believe that the public might be
justified in taking such claims more
seriously.
Possibly Mr.. Wirin's record else
where is satisfactory but, because
of the information produced by To-
cal investigators, and because of
the experience of Imperial Valley
with him, it would be exceedingly
difficult to convince our residents.
Because we believe this speaks
for the entire community, this
communication is being published
in our columns. And, because your
assistance in this matter will prove
most beneficial and interesting to
everyone, all future developments
will be given similar frank publici-
ty.
We are confident that you will
appreciate our calling this to your
attention and are similarly certain
that you will be personally inter-
ested in investigating this matter
Please accept our most sincere
good wishes.
Very truly yours,

NEW REVOLT
PREDICTED
IN SONORA

TUCSON, Ariz., Dec 5. UP)-A
new revolt will break out in the
Mexican state of Sonora within the
next few months unless Gov. Ra-
mon Ramos is removed from Of
flee, Pablo Reveil, self-confessed
rebel leader, predicted today.
Reveil compared the Mexican
struggle with that of American
colonists in the Revolutionary war,
declaring they sought only liberty
from oppression.
The rebel chief, who fled here
following collapse of the recent up
rising, charged that former Presi-
dent Elias Plutarco Gales owned
all distilleries in Sonora and a re-
cent prohibition on sales of native
liquors was imposed by Ramos to
create a monopoly.
