CU M. Claims Record SEATTLE tfl Ted Jones, the man who designed the famous . "Slo-Mo-Shun" SDeedhnats. sairi rriaay ne naa driven both of them taster man 200 miles per hour. There is "no such thine as water barrier" for tht surface- sKimming nyaroplanes. Jones as serted. ' , : v . Some boatlnjf circles have the orized that a "water barrier", sim ilar to the sound barrier for air planes, exists t about .200 miles per hour. Talk of . a "water bar rier" developed after Mario Verga r of Italy was killed last fall when his boat disintegrated at high speea. - John Cobb of England was killed in 1952 when his jet-propelled speedboat went to pieces. "Boats such as the Slo-Mos ride as high as nine inches out of the water," Jones said, "touching at tkraa nn!nt. V-1 ! - t l i prop is underwater at any time. The 'barrier' for these boats is the same as for airplanes the speea of sound.". First Disclosure ' " ' dunes statement mat. ne nad driven, the two boats faster than 200 mph was the first disclosure that such speeds have , been reached. The Slo-Mo-Shun IV has broken the . world water speed mark twice and holds it now at iia.wi mues per hour. The Slo-Mo-Shun V, untested over the of- ticiat mile, defeated her sister craft here in the 1954 Gold Cup . Stanley Sayres, owner of the two boats, has refused to say how fast the craft would go. Jones, no long er a member of the Sayres team, designed both and drove the Slo Mo IV to its first Gold Cup vic tor at Detroit in 1950. .The designer has constructed a "t of ,his own, which' he calls the "Rebel, Suh!" and with which he hopes to take the Gold Cup from the Slo-Mos. The race will be run again in Seattle next August.
