of Victor Hemrry, French
Racer Also In Bens.
SAVANNAH. Ga.. Not. 11. Ths New
York boy who four rears as;o away
from home to become a driver of
racing automobile, today, saved the
reputation of American drivers In the
grand prise race, the blue ribbon event
of the automobile contests. David
Bruce-Brown won a little more than a
second at the end of 41S.1 heartbreak
Ins; miles. He flashed across the elec
tric timing wire 1.43 seconds ahead of
Victor Hemery, the Frenchman. His
time was Ave hours, il minutes. S.2S
seconds, vetting a new American road
record of 70.65 miles an hour.
Both men drove Bens cars, so that
the foreign machines triumphed over
the American-made racers. The conso
lation la having an American at the
wheel of the winner was Increased by
the feat of "Wild Bob" Burman In an
American car. the Marquette-Bulck.
which finished third, getting third
money and an additional thousand dol
lars for the first American driver to
finish In an American car.
Before the race it was said the
American team planned to set a pace
In the early stages which would burn
tbe tires off the big foreign machines
and secure an advantage.
Foreigner Win by Numbers.
Apparently the Americans tried this
trick and it nearly succeeded, for most
of the forelgnrrs were either stalled
or wrecked before the finish, but the
foreigners were too numerous.
Wagner. In his big red Flat, was one
of the gamest. His daring nearly cost
Mm his life and that of bis mechanician.
Louis Ferrow. on the back stretch,
while coming down a small hill at top
rpeed. Wagner lost control of his car
f-r the fraction of a second, one of bis
front wheels striking a stone culvert.
crushing the wheel and throwing the
rar on lis aide for a slide of & feet
Into the trees.
Ferrow was shot into the top branch
es of a 30-foot willow, which caught
him and broke his fall. He ran to the
car beside which Wagner was lying
with machirx oil pouring about him
from a broken tank. The driver got up
with the .aid of his mechanician and
walked to the German Club, nearby.
I.ater he was taken to a hospital, where
It was reported he waa not seriously
hurt.
Willie Haupt. one of the Bens driv
ers, skidded off the road at the end of
a long straightaway, sldeswlplng a
tdant live osk and then plunged with
M car Into some bushes. He and H.
Ketble. his mechanician, emerged with
reassuring expedition, though some
what bruised and scratcbe'd.
Fifteen Can Start In Race).
Fifteen cars started In the race. In
tirie of Si miles tbe three Flats, driven
by W saner. le Palma and Naxarro.
nj the three Bens, steered by Hemery.
Bruce-Brown and Haupt. had left the
Americans well behind. Hemery took
the lead at about 30 miles, and held it
until the 140th mile, when a change of
tires allowed four of the other foreign
t-ar to rush past him.
Meanwhile Naxarro. holder of the
world's record of about 7& miles an
hour, was doing the fastest laps of the
dav In an effort to catch Hemery. Na
xarro' best time for a single lap was
11:31. which was 74.1 miles an hour.
For over a hundred miles he laid out
the pace, when Wagner took the lead
for about 49 miles, but lost It In filling
Me oil and gasoline tanks. When the
;o-mi!e mark was well In the rear and
the race more than half over, the big
rare were still bunched and doing some
of the most thrilling driving In the an
nals of automobile racing. A scant
three mlnvtes at times separated the
first four or five. Seconds only marked
the difference In some of their laps.
Willie Haupt waa the first to go
crashing from the course. Sixty miles
further on Wagner' car went rolling
into the ditch.
Then Naxarro. reputed to be the
world's uiost careful driver, bent his
rear axle Irreparably and was out of
it.
Drivers I loco mo I Cockles.
For the next IS mile there was a
battle royal between Pe Pal ma's Flat,
which had taken the lead, and Bruce
Brown and Hemery in the Ben racer.
Bruce-Brown, running second with
Te Palma a few yards behind him. but
two and a half minutes ahead on act
ual running time, tried to shake off
' the latter. De Palma retaliated with
reckless efforts to pass Bruce-Brown,
once nearly overturning his car at the
grandstand corner, as he skidded
around the right-angled turn 30 yards
beMrnl the Bern.
When Bruce-Brown rounded the turn
and shot into his last lap De Palma was
nowhere to be seen. He had stopped
on the back stretch, out of the race
with a broken cylinder. When Hemery
flew across the finish a few minutes
later it was not known until the timer
Jiang oat the numbers whether Bruce
Brown got In quick enough to beat him
on running time.
Bruce-Brown had started Jhree min
utes later than Hemery.

journeyed to Corvallis from various
points throughout the state. It was
the big gam of tbe year for the state,
and the field was packed.
Rnthuslasm was Intense, but rowdy
Ism was eliminated.
Between the halve the Corvallis
boys did a pretty serpentina while both
side cheered. Before the game Ore
gon did the same, and after the game
the Held, of course, was Oregon's. And
Oregon took It. too. Yelling like mad,
the crowd bore the victorious team
member In triumph on their shoulders.
JLuck favored Oregon In tbe toss and
the team took the klckoff.- Oregon'
linemen broke through at once and
showed Corvallis the futility of at
tempting to gain and forced an at
tempted punt which was blocked by
Walker, who secured the ball.
Punting7 Duel Starts.
Main then tried a field goal but
failed. A moment later, however, he
succeeded, after a pretty run In of a
punt by Latourette. Then the punting
duel started and the speedy Oregon
quarterback held, his own with Keck.
At the end of the quarter. Oregon had
the ball on her own 10-vard line. In
this part of the game, Oregon lost con
siderable yardage through high passes
by center Kellogg, but later In the
game, his passing was well nigh per
fect. The second period opened with a con
tinuance of the punting duel, with
neither team showing marked advan
tage. Jamison was Jarred here and
Fiser went In and a moment later Hall
replaced Weldlund at tackle. These
were the only substitutions made by
Oregon, while Corvallis used almost
two full teams.
Boon after Hall went In. Taylor
started the march to tbe Corvallis goal
by skirting Corvallis' left end for 33
yards, tearing with ease through and
over the farmer boy. Walker then
mada-a dash for several yards Into the
line. Then Main prepared for a place
kick but. In a cleverly manipulated
fake play, shot the ball from the 35
vard line to Walker, who raced across
chalk-line after chalk-line and finally
scored the only touchdown made
against Corvallis this year.
After the excitement between the
halve had subsided and after the Ag
gies had shouted aa though the score
were to In their favor Instead of
against them, the two teams settled
down to business again.
Plucky Reynolds Would Play. '
Little Reynolds, who had been re
moved on account of Injuries In the sec
ond period, was carried out tJ the field
by his fellow students to see the re
mainder of the game, it was too much,
though, for him to see his team-mates
going Into the fray without him. Ho
broke away from his friends, dashed
into the field and would not be put
out. Finally when he waa led away,
the tears were stresmlng down his
face. Starting another punting duel,
the two teams moved up and down the
field, gradually, however, coming near
er the Corvallis goal. Oregon gained
several times through cleverly exe
cuted forward passes and fske play
and finally recovered aa onalde kick
on the eight-yard line. The Oregon
backs were sent back for losses twice
and then from tho Il-yard line Main
booted the ball over for three more
points.
After this score Corvallis braced.

tor's gam than the previous play.
Punting and passes were the features
and finally Taylor electrified the Ore
gon rooters by a dash of 38 yards, but
waa caught from behind by Keck.
Place-Kick Fall Wide.
Oregon tried for a place-kick from
the 4f. yard line and soon after from
the 37-yard line, but both missed and
the game was soon a matter of foot
ball history. Oregon was penalised re
peatedly for off-side play. The work
of all officials was excellent.
Coach Warner ssld he was hardly
satisfied with the victory as hi men
were, he said, capable of better work.
Both teams were said to be In the pink
of condition at the start. The Aggies
who showed to particular advantage,
were Hastings, at half and quarter.
Kellogg at end. May at tackle and Keck
at fullback. Keck did not, however,
play his usual high-srrade game. The
barkfteld and ends for Oregon were
the bright particular lights of a team
which may be well described as one of
the best. If not the best, football team
ever turned out of the University. The
work of Main and Taylor, member
of the Sigma University will live long
In Oregon football history. The lineup,:

i
In winter, It is hard to get fresh air
in certain rooms. Some rooms in a
house are usually colder than others,
and if you open the windows it is
hard again to heat the room properly.
If you keep the windows closed
you don't get fresh air; if you keep
them -open you cannot quickly reheat
the room. The
Afoolnttfy moktlcss and oioAest
solves the difficulty. You can leave
the windows in a room open all day
In winter, and when you close them
apply a match to a Perfection Oil
Heater and heat the room to any tem
perature you desire in a few minutes.
The Perfection Oil Heater la finished in jspan or nickel. It burns for
nine hours. It has a cool handle and a damper top. It has an automaUe
locking Quit spreader, which prevents the wick from being turned men
enough to smoke, and is easy to remove and drop back ao that the wick can be
quickly oleaned. An Indicator always, shows amount of oil In the font
The filler-cap does not need to be screwed down. It is put In like a cork
in a bottle, and is attached to the font by a chain.
The burner body or gallery cannot become wedged, because of a new
device in construction, and consequently, it can always be easily unKrewedin
an instant for rewicking. Tbe Perfection Oil Heater is atrong, durable, well
made, built for service, yet light and ornamental.
