KENT-SUSSEX FAIR TO
SHOW DEATH DODGERS
tcOu.inusa from p1un Page,

present rate he figures he smashes
from So to SS cars annually.
Jimmy's big stunt this year which,
according to Duke Hannaford, his
announcer. gives me heart failure
every time he does it," is the broad
jump over a truck standing 20 feet
away. This must be executed at be-
tween 60 to 65 miles an hour not to
fall short. The truck itself, with a
platform body, is feet inches
wide and stands inches higher
than the 527inch high ramp off which
Lynch propels his car. The ramp is
sc feet long and the sharp rise of
the last third of the runway gives
the sedan enough elevation to clear
the truck. Altogether, a jump of 40
feet is necessary to clear the 20 in
tervening feet between truck and
ramp. and bring the rear end of the
jumper past the opposite side of the
truck. Occasionally the rear wheels
bounce off the truck and that's an
added thrill,'' said Hannaford. ANY
thing short of that, of course, would
be line diving right into a brick
wall. The strain shows on the men
at the end of the day, but Jimmy
doesn't see INTO have any nerves"
In addition to this stunt there are
at least so others performed by this
group of dare devils and the man
agement of the Kent and Sussex Fair
is more than delighted by this spec
tacular show that opens the fair on
Monday night, July 25.
