LANGHORNE AUTO RACES

Langhorne, Pa, April 28-From
the dirt track to the speedway move
the nations foremost knights of the
roaring road, Sunday, May II, max
ing their inaugural bow at Ralph A.
Hankinson's Langhorne mecca of
eastern auto racing.
In launching his sixth season as
operator of the Langhorne speed
plantation, Hankinson will feature
the cream of Americas racing talent.
He already has made overture to out
standing western drivers who never
before have raced in the East.
Ever since Hankinson's appear
ance on the scene in the role of pro-
moter, Langhorne has enjoyed in
creasing popularity as the East's
favored race course. Last year, an
unprecedented crowd of 41,634
spectators witnessed the inaugural
events here.
Now recognized as the fastest mile
circular course in the world, the
Bucks county speedway is one of
three remaining tracks Of it's kind in
the United States. Indianapolis and
Oakland are the only other speed
ways recognized by the high powers
of American auto racing.
The whizzing tires and roaring
motor of Kelly Petillo's Winfield
charger last October inscribed new
world record for 100 miles at Lang
horne. 1t was the outstanding feat
of the season at this track, eclipsing
DOC" Mackenzie's noteworthy per-
formance-a 36-second mile-here
in 1894.
Langhorne was the scene of four
outstanding events in 1895. The
late Johnny Harmon, 1884 Eastern
monarch, won the inaugural; Ben
Shaw followed suit in the second
offering; Mackenzie flashed to
triumph in the August classic, while
Petillo annexed the 100-mile national
championship race in October.
Six Three-A sanctioned events,
featuring 100 miles of keen competi-
ton, will inaugurate the current
campaign at Langhorne. The card
will include four sprints of 10 miles
duration, a 5O-miIe featured final,
and the usual series of time trials.

WEST NOTTINGHAM TAKES
BY C. X. VAUGHAN
F. 8 M.

Last Saturday West Nottingham
Academy opened its baseball season In
fine style when 1t won 80 from
Franklin and Marshall Academy down
on the Colora field.
The Maroon owes this first victory
over F. and M. to Ray Humphreys,
who whitfield ten men at the plate.
passed one, and made the winning run
in the last part of the second extra
inning.
Bob Rowland had a field day when
1t came to the clouting end of the
game--in four trips to the plate he
smashed three out of three slams.
Bill Reynolds didn't do so badly either
when he got two for four
The game Itself was of those hope
to die affalrs--no one knew just what
might happen. For the first two
innings one might have said 1t was
going to be a pitchers battle. Then
In the first part of the third Noting
ham slips across lone tally which
held good until the first of the sixth.
This rally in the sixth threatened to
sink the Maroon as two F. and NJ runs
had already crossed the plate and the
basses were loaded with milestone,
the visitors siege gun at bat-only
there were two down. A Texas Lea
guer Is seen to pop off Whetstone's
willow-but, Bill Reynolds, the Ma
room shortstop, takes to his elects,
stumbles. crashes-two more runs
cross; but-lo, Reynolds comes up with
the ball A true Frank Merrlwell catch
IL there ever was onei
In the same inning Rowland crosses
again to tie the score after having
stolen two bases.
Inning number seven and eight find
pitchers Humphreys and Mllicich
working hard to the result that only
one hit Is seen during this interim.
F. and M. doesn't do much in the
first of the ninth-but 1t Is a little
different In the Nottingham camp.
Rowland slaps out a pretty double;
Humphreys gets pass to first; Byrd
grounds out, advancing both runners;
Pennington walks, and Rowland socks
a wild heave to third and the game
Is won.

SEEN AND UNSEEN
Evangelist John Moses Baker
Baltimore, Maryland

The things that are seen are temporal;
They will soon be put away.
Like scaffolding round a building,
They are creatures of a day.
The things that are seen are temporal,
Fleeing and soon are gone.
Like the dew in the early morning,
And some old forgotten song.
The things unseen are eteranl;
They will last forever and aye.
When the sun has gone down forever,
And the stars have gone way.
The things unseen are eternal;
Worth more than fame or gold,
AS the evening shadows lengthen,
And life's tale is almost told.

THE MIGHTY POWER OF LOVE
Evangelist John Moses BAKER
Baltimore, Maryland

Love, what a mighty power
Thy scepter always sways,
To comfort us in darkest night,
And stormy, cloudy days.
Gone onward to that better land,
Wife's presence is so near;
Her voice still echoes in my soul;
We have no doubts or fear
True love can nerver fade away;
Can never, never die.
1t lives forever here on earth,
Forever in the sky.
When the shadows gather round you
Fear not for the marching of time
God will make lovely thy evening;
His glory around you shall shine.
