Buick Coupe On Record
Run Passes Through City
A Buick coupe, driven by Mrs. Z.
Kathleen Ayers of San Francisco,
passed through Oregon City Tuesday
on a record run from San Francisco
to Portland. The trip was made in
22 hours 43 minutes, which is over
three hours better than any previous
automobile record, and5 hours ahead
of the Shasta Limited.
- The trip was made without a single
stop except for fuel and water. This
gives Mrs. Ayers and her 4-cylinder
Buick Coupe the record over the rail
as well as on the highway.
Such a remarkable drive is a feat
which would be looked upon as a mar
velous exploit even for the most ex
perienced racing pilot Consequently,
this young woman may well feel elat
ed and proud of her achievement
Mrs. Ayers sat behind the wheel and
drove the Buick for the greater part
of the 725 miles, only occasionally
relieved by the official representative
whi. had hppn detailed fcv the Howard
cort.
- The record is official i nevery res
pect, as the Buick coupe and its fair
driver were checked out of San Fran
cisco at 1:02 o'clock p. m., Monday,
May 1, and were checked in here at
11:45 a. m. Tuesday, May 2. The
checking was done at both places by
members of the local press, while the
timing was done by the officials of
the Western Union Telegraph com
pany. Not a single stop was made from
the time the Buick was checked out
until it reached Portland, with the
exception of the' stops made for fuel
and oil. This record run was almost
as spectacular and awe-inspiring as
the one made in January of 1921, when
a six-cylinder-Buick coupe and its
I hardy crew startled the motor world
by hanging up a midwinter road rec
ord of 26 hours 16 minutes over roads
which were blocked to all traffic and
in the face of a terrific snowstorm In
the mountains and a driving, rain
storm in the valleys.
