Hupmobile dealer In thia section. j "Long endurance runt are a fa-j to red aport in these countries." Mr. PoapUll atatea. "They attract thej attention of tha motorists in the I United Statea particularly because' these contests hare not been popu-j lar here for many years, despite thej fact that our road conditions are-, tar superior to those in the terri-j torles where the most exciting racea are staged. One race won by a Hupmobile six with five passengers in the car took plan In South Africa, The distance, was EOO miles, and In winning Hup-j mobile demonstrated' Its fitness toj stand up nnder the hardest tests. On part of the 500 mile route, roads ! (as we know them) are practically' non-exlstant, and the climate rery trying both on the driver and on the car mechanism. The greatest hazard la sand; There are several kinds; yellow rirer sand, red sand, light and heavy sand. The Hup mobile six pulled through all of this without' hallrinr ren In rnwrinf h dunes of loose red sand or rirer! beds of heavy yellow sand, with hid den stones to make it worse. In I winning this race H. P. Ross, driver I of the car. won the Grand National! cup, other prises tor leading at dlf-i ferent stagea of the run. also going to thia car and driver. "Greece has also taken to auto mobile racing. It was expected that they would, since the people there were the originators of the contest and have always been ardent devo tees toTaporting games. As they formerlS'tested athletic and physical prowess, they now test the endur ance of motors. The first official i race sanctioned by the Greek Toor- ing club was staged between Athens' and Monemvasaia and return, a dis-j ttnee of 700 kilometers (437HIJ miles), a Hupmobile stock car tak-l ing first place over a large field of I the finest cars. "Other achievements of Hupmo bile that have come to our notice include a victory in southern Swe-j den in a run sponsored by the Royal ' Swedish Automibile club, Scanian' division," the driver of the car,) Hans SJodahl, meriting the 'Pratt; cup' given to the best class A driv er. Also, a Hupmobile six placed ( first In tee Roumanian Grand Prtr touring, mention of which has al- ready been made In news columns.! "The . Hungarian touring competition-from Szeged to Budapest.! won by a Hupmobile eight driven; by Charles Haupt. was one of thej most grilling tests and reliability j runs held this year. The laxt stage) of the rare was started at night . with searchlights, and was run in a 1 true torrential rain, and this, to-! gather with the resulting condition j of the roads, prevented many of the starters from finishing. The result of this contest was most pleasing to Hupmobile followers. It showed Hupmobile superiority amongst the many competitors (many of them specially built for' road racing) and finishing first, without the least defect. "The fact that the cars over which both Hupmobile models won victories are selling at a higher price, makes our showing more out-, standing.'
