NEW YORK, April "a. W.P -
Frank Wallace, bald, middle-aged
hoofer, admitted today that he was
the original husband of one Mae
West. He married her in Milwau-
kee in 1911-or was it 1909?
Mae wasn't a blonde in those
days" he said. The Mae I mar
ried in Milwaukee was a classy
little brunette. And as for those
curves, she was more on the lean
side
Wallace asserted he was con-
vinced that his long lost love was
the siren Of the present day screen.
New York court records revealed
further evidence to embarrass the
glamorous Mae in her strenuous
denials of having been married.
When she was indicted here in
1927 for appearing in an allegedly
immoral play, she recorded her So
ciaf state as married"

SIR CAMPBELL spins
HUDSON TO RECORDS
Famed Record.Holder Enthu.
siastic Over Performance
Of Stock Car

Seven new official stock car records
were established on the Daytona
Beach sands q few days ago when
Sir Malcolm Campbell, driving Hud-
son sedan, fully equipped stock model,
broke the previous flying start marks
for one to five miles and one to 10
kilometerS.
Softness Of the beach cut at least
two miles an hour from the new rec
ord, Sir Malcolm stated, but the at
tempt could not be delayed for more
favorable conditions on account Of
preparations for his world speed
trials in the Bluebird. Beach condi-
tions made the STOCK car runs even
more tests of ruggedness than Of
speed, it was stated.
Shortly after the famous Britisher
set the new speed marks, Buddy Mari,
Of Detroit, took the same Hudson
sedan on the Daytona course for new
stock car records for the mile from
standing start and for both the kilo-
meter and mile in second gear.
70 Per In Second
These two latter tests in which
Marr sent the sedan over q measur-
ed mile in second gear at the pheno-
menal speed Of 70 miles per hour, was
considered the most Furnishing Of the
entire series. It shattered the previ-
Gus record by more than Z miles per
hour.
Sir Malcolm WIS enthusiastic over
the Hudsons performance, stating at
the conclusion Of the run, 1T Is a re-
markable motor, very smooth and
powerful. What amazes me most is
the way the car is unaffected after
the way it has been slammed around

In preparation for the run. I wan,
to congratulate the Hudson Company
on the performance Of the car"
Much Of the credit for the new
record for the mile from standing
start was due to the quick shifting
accomplished by the Electric Hand
according. to Buddy Mari. "Fast
shifting" he stated. "is certainly OF
the greatest Importance In covering &
mile from standing start In 50 sec.
ondS."
Records Are Listed
The several records established by
the Hudson stock model were: Flying
start mile. 88.2028 m. p. h.: flyiu9

ing start five kilometers, 8S.106 m

Ing start mile in second gear, 60.224
m. p. h. Excepting only the latter
mark, which was seven miles an hour
faster than the previous record, all
Of the new marks bettered the ex.
isting ones by approximately two
miles an hour.
The runs were over the same course
and with the same elaborate timing
device that Sir Malcolm will use for
his runs with the Bluebird. The
marks are official, the tests having
been supervised by the AAA. The
representatives in charge were T. E.
