Kamano Special Wins. One possible fatality and one broken ankle Is the morbid record of 1h. first day's auto races yesterdav at the Rose City Speedway, the scene of a two-day race meet under the auspices or the rortlana Automobile Club. Arthur J. Edwards, pilot of the Tal mer singer, the 75-horsennwor lv- i cyiinaer car.

T.a-arnrA mechanician, was broken when he was thrown clear of the machine on its urbi roil. Race la Spectacular. The accident occurred at almost the final lap of the most spectacular race any of the crowd of 12,000 ever had seen in Portland. j ne i-aimer-Singer had failed to make the first squad of speedy machines in me preliminary trials and was rele gated to the second batch. In which wf-re tne machines which placed out side of the first four. The Mercer, driven by Jack "Welch, i-iwiv me ieaa irom tne start. The Hudson, driven bv E. Schneldor took second place at the start and the Palmer-Singer was third and almost a lap behind the Mercer. Mile after mile was reeled off with the Mercer first; Schneider, with tht. tiuason. second, and the Palmer-Singer, wuru. ceiore tne llrst half of the race, there being 20-mlle laDS. was over. VM. wards could be seen edging the Pal- mer-oinger on. .Machine Speeds Faster. Each mile the machine began tear ing faster. It was a heavy machine. proDaDiy tne heaviest one on the course. Dut it fairly jumped at the end of the curves. In the eighth lap Edwards had one- ciButa oi a mile to make up. This ne started -aolne. until the tlm. tance between them waa decreased one and one-half seconds a round, which amuunwB to aoout. ijo feet on the lap. . The last tlma around showed him to be going faster yet. He clipped almost two seconds off the difference be tween them, and was within about 200 feet of the Mercer. A few seconds and they were on the other side of the track, almost aide by side. The crowd had risen to its feet, and men were shouting as the two dashed along the stralght-away on the oppo site side of the field. For a moment it looked as If they would pass there, but the big machine dropped back Just a trifle. Edwards opened up again before he hit the curve and at that time must have been going 65 miles an hour. The crowd grew wilder with the prospect of a neck-and-neck race In front of the grandstand. it wn ,n dust where the racers were. in a moment one machino onm ahai of the dust. The crowd watchri fnr the second car. It did not arrai- Something had happened. the Palmer-Singer had crone over thl CA l i - ... u-iuui eiiiuunnmenc. rolling over and over witn the occupants. It landed right side up. with hood, wheel and tanKS an torn off. The broken por nuns ui mo wneei were spattered witn blood from where they had cut Ed- waras. Car la Knmber 13. The car bore a huge number i! avowedly Edwards' lucky number. The car was tne property of Merrill B. .-uoores. -inis was the third day Ed wards had been at the wheel at h. machine, but no man could have han- aiea tne Dig car any smoother than h did. He was 'one of the entrants in h. Korona road races and has been driv ing as long asmotor races have been held on the Pacific Coast. He formeriv was the Ford Motor Car Company's agent here and is an agent for th siuaeoatter corporation. The race programme was a snnrt nn Eight machines appeared for the elim ination mne run and the Ramono Sn. i-lal, a small beetle-like machine, made the fastest measured mile, going It in u:aa l-o. The second best mile In (h lim nation was made bv the Frnm ri-iv.n oy jim rarsons. Ramano Hu Special Motor. The Ramano Special is built with a special motor, having eight cylinders, placed opposite each other at an angle of 45 degrees. The Chalmers, driven bv G. TJ. Smith and, a Locomobile, driven by Joe Thomas, were the other two that quali fied for the first race for 25 miles. 1 lie Kamano SDecial set tha nnoo on kept It. All the other cars had trouble. ine locomobile had almost ttorv kind of trouble after about the third a p. The clutch began to slin. The driver came In and sand was thrown all over It. Two rounds and it waa in again. Toward the last it was boillne- nrftll the steam was thicker than the exhaust off a donkey engine. It stopped again and made a fourth start. The Chalmers also came In with trouble, but finally finished in time to win third money. Vrmmn Loki Tire. The Frans car also was rolnr and several times seemed due to overtake the Ramano Special. Just at one of those times a tire burst and it had to come in off the track. It happened practically at the snot where the Palmer-Singer left the track and it was a piece of "big league" driving on the part of Jim Parsons that kept the car from going over the hill. tie went out in time to take srnnH place, but two laps to the rear of the Kamano Special. The slower-timed race was won hv the Mercer, driven by Welch. This car had trouble In the qualifying rounds, and so it fell into the second batch, where it won the 20 miles in 19 min utes and E9 seconds. The Hudson, driven by E. Schneider went into second, and the Lozier went out long; before the end, as it waa trav VI eling slower than taxirah. nvo h Broadway bridge. The interest tho drivers have taken in this race meet is demonstrated bv Joe Thomas and the Locomobile, which acted rather badly yesterdav. This car was out on Friday and broko a drive shaft. The Factory Motor Car Repairs Com pany offered to help the meet out by doing the work and getting tho car in -3 KouJ !"en- including Drier Thomas, worked all night and just be fore noon yesterday had the car out for the races. Frans In I-'aatrnt Mile. The fastest milo of the day waa turned out by the Frajia when round ing the saucer for the 19th time. The car had gone the circuit in 52 seconds and just when Parsons figured on pass ing Barnes he threw a tire aJ1"?." JW.as. ,d,sl'1yl his bit of won derful driving. He was at the curve and was thrown off the track by the Hying tire. Instead of stopping Par sons drove on and completed tho cir cuit less than half a mile to the rear of Romana. He put on a tire and was off again before either the Locomobile or the Chalmers could lap him. The Romans then slowed up as he had nothing more to fear with the Franz two laps to tho rear. His time ror tho first 19 miles would have been record-making, as he did that distance In 17 minutes and 3t seconds. Cycle Furnish Thrilln. The motorcycles also furnished soma thrills. Verne Maskell. Portland s dare devil motorcycle rider, won his raco ir 4:31 1-6. ited Cogburuc. also on an In dian, won the other motorcvele race. Cogburnes was the fastest of tho day. He did the five miles in 4:30 1-5. At a late hour last night Edwards came off the operating table. He waa conscious. His injury consisted of a. buge scalp wound and fracture of the skull, with possible internal injuries. Foley had a break below the knee. Edwards Is married. His wife wa i the grandstand and was taken to tho hospital with him. Foley is not mar married. The second day's races tain nlara today, beginning at 2 o'clock. The offi cials of the meet announced last nit; lit that the dust, which was rather dense. would be laid with a special solution.
