Kennedy In Race With Own Auto. B. E. Kennedy, formerly of Baker and well known here, figured in a lit tle comedy staged unintentionally by himself in Portland the other day. The following story from the Port "ar d iAgram tells all about it:-' ' n i ipromptu , race was staged : el-. en C E. Kennedy and his own tuU. . :.ile, the race bein gterininated . , . fl'y fence. Kennedy, since n:uz.m Albee's campaign has lost the management of his srasoUne cart his mind being on other things, prob- aDiy. . Kennedy backed his car out of his garage, and as there was an incline he threw in the reverse eear and f isr- nred that the momentum of the run for a few feet would turn over the engine and ignite . the spark. This would save him the trouble of crank. ing. ' It is a lazy man's device. But' the car did not back up enough, and Kennedy, forgetting to shift the gear to neutral, slowly clambered out of the car .and proceeded to crank 'er up. The result was highly satisfac tory.''' -i-:;, ! "With a tremble and a throb the bio. automobile began to scuttle back ward like a crawfish, and it began going fast, too.' In his excitement Kennedy tried to "whoa" the machine J but the car refused to Whoa, not be-'i ing that kind of horsepower. On- ward backed the car, gathering speed. i Kennedy used to be a very active man but since be received visit-: from . Old - Man Rheumatism he' navigates slowly.. Came then a lum bering pursuit by Kennedy after his runaway car.' Merily the motor avoid ed him, steadily increasing in distance for B. Elmer is not fleet of foot - On sped the car, backing across the side walk and onto a vacant lot Crush ing its way through tall grass, which onlv entaneled the lees of the own er, the car kept going until it landed with a thump against a Xence, wnicn detained the machine until Kennedy arrived panting and out of breath."
