At wheel Is A Edwards, a well-known local race driver who will pilot big six-cylinder Palmer-Singer 'car. Merrill Mosrea, one of the Portland entrants in race. Everything at the Rose City Speed-1 way is now in readiness for the big automobile races that are to be held tomorrow and Sunday. Yesterday aft ernoon the first of the trial spins were taken by the cars and only one ma chine out of the nine that were at the track failed to negotiate the mile In less than 60 seconds. When one stops to consider that this time was made over a course that has not yet been prepared to .eliminate the dust, it can readily be appreciated that Portland is to see for the first time real auto mobile racing. Four of the Portland entries were on hand with their cars and all of the boys who will drive are showing the race men from the north that they will have to move fast if they expect to get away with the money being hung up by the Portland Automobile club. Merrill Moores, who has entered his Palmer-Singer, arrived at the track a little late with A. J. Edwards at the wheel, and when the big six cylinder machine finally began to roar around the track, every spectator grabbed for his watch in an endeavor to get a line on what Is considered by the "wise ones along the rail" aa the dark horse, would show. The slowest time announced for the big car was 59 seconds. Iap In 68 Seconds. All the foreign entries except one were present. The one car missing is the Romano Special which will be piloted by Percy Barnes. Word was received this morning by Manager Johnson that the car would arrive Saturday morning and is ready to get into action. With the arrival of this car, all machines entered will be on the ground and all are In fine fettle to race aa they have never done before.' The fastest lap at the trials was made by Jim Parsons at the wheel of the Frantz Special, who did the mile a shade better than 68 seconds. Parsons is a driver of known ability, having won the 100 mile inter-city trophy at Tacoma last year, and is entered at Tacoma and Seattle this year. He was pleased over the condition of the course as were all the drivers Who drove over It yesterday. . The Velle with Henri North as the seconds, while the Napier with Durray I at the wheel was another car that showed she had the speed. The Hud son, owned and driven by Ernest Schneider of North Yakima ran nice ly yesterday, as did the Locomobile driven by Joe Thomas. Motorcycles Also Try Out. The motorcycle entrants were also on the track yesterday. Among them were the following: Pope, rider, Roy Thompson; Pope, Bille Carnahan; Jef ferson, C- A. Hunt; Merkle, Qus Pep pel; Harley Davidson, C. C Simmons; Harley Davidson. Ed Berreth; Indian, Vern Maskell; Indian, "Red" Cogburn; Thor, Harry Brant. Two motorcycle events are scheduled for Saturday and the riders who finish first and second in these two events are eligible for the money In the bdg event of Sunday.

It has been Industriously re ported throughout the city, first, that I am a Catholic; secondly, that I am a candidate of the school board. Con cerning the first false statement. I have only to say that I have never been a member of any church organ ization. My leanings are toward the Presbyterian church, because of early training. Concerning the second false I hen to say that 1 have not been approached Jay anyone, either Protestant or Catholic, for any pledges whatever. . . . My well known position la against the domination of any religious sect In school or other public matters. It is manifestly unfair and unjust, there fore, tb have circulated and encour aged these false rumors. I deprecate most sincerely 10 injeci rensiuua vl- udice in- puunc scnooi manors, nu consider those guilty of it as doing a serious injury to public welfare. Con cerning the second report again, I have to say mai i nave iwvci -cussed with any member of the board any plans or purposes of the board, and was never asked by anyone to make any pledge wnaiever ia reiawun V, If my health had permitted I should honr. niooaori with anv oDDortun- lty to serve the public In an honest effort to assist in making the public school system of Portland. one of the best In the country.
