PORTLANDER RISKS LIFE flay Brock Ves Every Available Means to Bring Fame to Home City but Fate Decrees Differ ently Day Big Today. TACOMA. "Wash.. July 8. In the most spectacular finish ever Been In automo bile racing In this section, Hughie Hughes this afternoon won the Golden Potlatch trophy upon the Tacoma Speedway before a crowd of 20,000, traversing; the 200-mlle course in 2:41:32 2-5, or at the rate of 74.28 miles an hour.. Arthur Klein was second and Earl Cooper third. The ninth lap of the two-mile course found Hughes, Klein and Cooper In the same lap. not more than 300 yards apart. Cooper in the lead. From then until the 99th lap they raced almost hood to hood. A blowout of the right front tire put Cooper out of the lead, Hughes shooting into the front and winning from Klein with about 100 feet to spare. Bert Dlngley flnlBhed fourth in a special car entered by R. W. Young, of Los Angeles. Wilbur Dealane was put out of the race in the 73d lap while leading the field by two laps. His right rear tire blew out. throwing the machine over Into the ditch. Neither Do Alene nor his mechanician was hurt. Portlander Risks Life to Win. The morning race, the Inter-clty Cen tury, was won by James Parsons, of Se attle, winner of the 100-mlle contest last year. Ray Brock, of Portland, with the en gine from his famous Oregon Kid motorboat, created a sensation in the inter-city race. He was leading the field, driving beautifully, at a terrific pace, with Parsons in a Frants close up, when the rear axle ring gave way on the backstretch. Picking up a rock, he forced this in the axle hub instead of the ring, reeling off lap after lap In a furious endeavor to regain lost time, even though running a great risk of capsizing. But he was unable to overhaul Parsons, who finished in X hour, 21 minutes and 29 2-6 seconds for a voyage of 78.63 miles an hour, break ing all previous Northwest records by eight miles an hour. Latta, in a Lo sler, was third. Brock started in the Potlatch race in the afternoon, but the same axle put him out. Having repaired his car he Is quite a favorite for tomorrow even against nationally-famous competitors, as the result of his wonderful driving. He and Parsons are certain competi tors at the Portland, speedway races next week. Terrlfle I Big Race. In the Potlatch 200-mile race, De Alene, in a Marmon. led the field by two laps at a furious- pace for 73 laps of the two-mile traok, his nearest com petitor being Hughes, in a Maxwell. Cooper, in a Stutz lay steady at third with Klein in a King, who drove mag nificently, fourth. Seeing the prob ability of his old Marmon beating the latest Indianapolis creations, a ter ritio race ensued until the Marmon blew out a tire toppling over and over on the back stretch. Cooper, Hughes and Klein then left all the others. Only five seconds separated the three for lap after lap. With three laps to go. Cooper's car failed under terrific pressure and Hughes crossed the wire first in 2:41:32 2-6, Just six seconds ahead of Klein on elapsed time. Cooper was third and Dlngley fourth. Hughes' time was a new record Starter Howe put forth a puerile ex hibition. He got cars badly away and failed to give the first three cars the green flag, before the last lap. Hughes, gotting a checkered flag, thought there was some mistake and went round again when the starter then gave him the green flag necessitating still another lap. Klein and Hughes also will be among competitors at Portland. Moross gave a great exhibition of team management for Hughes' victory. The Montamaratbon, the big race of the meet. 350 miles, will be run to morrow and. a record breaking crowd is expected. JLXIGHTS OF COITJMBCS LOSE Prineville Pitcher Too Much for Portland Ball Team.
