pecially pleasing to Huntington

nearly as strong as the first

A stron second team will be a
big help to Salem high in com

Of 245:7 Miles an Hour
In Racing Car at Dayfona
DAYTONA BEACH". Fla., Feb.
5 (AP) Captain Malcolm Camp
bell, 48 year old .British racing
car driver, today established a
new world's automobile speed rec
ord of 245.733 miles an hour on
the sands of the natural beach
speedway here.
Roaring twice over the course
in his huge 1,450 horsepower
Bluebird machine, he exceeded
the previous record by 14.371
miles an hour and became the
first man in the world ever to at
tain a ground speed of four miles
a minute or more.
The previous record was 231
miles an hour, established here

mile was 248.086. The kilometer
course was laid out within the
measured mile. l
Despite the fact the! beach was
not in perfect condition, the giant
racing car held to the sand and at
no time showed tendency of get
ting off Its course. ;j
After completing both rans,
Campbell expressed disappoint
ment that he had not been able to
set a higher record. j
"I am not satisfied with 'the
record," he said, after he had
torn himself away from a huge
crowd of spectators and saclngj of
ficials who swarmed Out on to the
beach to congratulate him.
"The car has lots more speed in
it and 1 am a bit disappointed
mat conditions prevented
from going faster."

strength of Sampson, Reed did

does not mind the strength of

McCann's favorite hold is the

COMMENTS
CURTIS,
There Keem to be some dig
satisfaction anions the fans,
with Wednesday night's fight
show. Jut how widespread, ef
course we can't tell; We have
- our own Ideas but we have
learned that they do not ne
cessarily coincide with the
majority.
O '
We haven't heard any sugges
tion that the show was lacking
in box office names. Just Thurs
day morning fair Gregory in his
Oregonian sport gossip, speculat
ing on who'd be state champions
at the various weights, men
tioned Ratzlaff as probably the
middleweight who'd get the call.
Ratzlaff has defeated Georgte
Dixon twice and Wesley Ketchell
once. Denny Lenhart also is
recognized as a rriln? battler.
The trouble, according to
the man on the street, was -that
these boys weren't ade
quately matched. The trou
ble when fighters aren't well
matched in either that one
Kets an awful Wat ing or that
the other, doesn't quite do his
best; and as for Wednesday
night's main event, the im
pression seems to be that both
of those things' were - about
'half true. , . Y;
Wednesday night's card was
the first under the Lew plan.
Every thing couldn't be ideal.
Maybe now that Ratzlaff has
been lntroduced.he'll come back
again, pitted against adequate
opposition. We could be hasty
and condemn somebody for
something, but we know our
weakness we're suspicious of
professional. sports to begin with.
'ineya never let us serve on a
ury. ".
Ercel W. Kay was elected presi
dent of the Salem Golf club for
the fourth successive year, at a

of the club held Thursday. Dt W.

The directors voted a budget
for the year, of J20.000, which
will provide for a considerable
program of betterment. Includ

he stated Thursday that he bad
plans for six home-and-home team
contests with clubs in other cities
already lined up tentatively.
The first of these will be March
1 when the local club's team will
probably go to Portland to meet a
team representing one of the
clubs there. Others will be with
a second Portland club, Eugene,
Oregon City, Cottage Grove j and

There jwlll-be-no lack of compe

E
CHICAGO. One of the most
farorable elements in public util
ity operation at the present time
ts the gradual Increase occurring
in; household consumption of both
gas and electricity, in the, opinion
of Albert E. Pelrce. president of
the Central Public Service corporation.;
j In discussing this development
Mr. Pelrce pointed out that when
the consumption of gas and elec
tricity by Industrial plants declin
ed last year practically all public
utility companies were forced to
redouble their efforts to encour
age household usage.
! "Through greater sale of addi
tional appliances and the wider in
troduction of natural gas at a low
er cost, it became apparent before
the end of 1930 that. Increased
household usage of gas and elec
tricity had gone far to offset de
clining industrial consumption,"
he stated.
"This trend is continuing and I
believe that it will have a pro
found influence on utility opera
tions in 1931'.-
