BE a ae PAGE EIGHT THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 25, 1930 NEW EFFORT FOR SPEED RECORDS Attack to be Made on Mark Set by Sir H. O. D. Seagrave Daytona Beach, Fla., Feb. 25.-- Twenty-five years ago Henry Ford in a five cylinder automobile of his own design figured among the car- liest attempts to smash speed records in the smooth packed sands forming the natural speedway of Daytona Beach. Eleven vears ago Ralph de Palma gambled with stakes of $15,000 for the establishment of a new record and won as he roared over the straight- away at a rate of ncarly 130 miles an hour. Last year as the climax of a ven- ture costing upwards of $90,000 Sir Henry O. D. Segrave streaked the "measured mile" in his Golden Ar- row at the rate of 231.362 $hiles per hour for a new world's record by a substantial margin, Now, as the climax tish rivalry being American Kave tempt to surpass Segrave's recor with his 24-cylinder Sunbeam "Silver Bullet" in the record trials scheduled March 15-30 on the stretch of sand that has become the most famous battleground of ed in the world.

The fourth, by Ray Keech in the ill-fated White Triplex represents the only American contribution. Keech now is dead and the machine in which he sct the record was demolished in a fatal crash last year. Under the direction this year of Val Haresnape, former secretary of the contest board of American Au- mobile Association, the. city of Day- tona Beach has put its speed trials on a basis designed to make them an annual world's championship for at least ten years. The city had underwritten the ven- ture, opened it to the public free and removed any possibility of its be- coming a commercial proposition. The project is based upon the fact that nowhere else is so perfect a na- tural course provided for these dare- devil, dangerous performances. Hare- snape estimates that $25,000 was spent in a vain attempt last year to make the Verneukpan, South Africa, suitable for the attempts of Captain Campbell to set a new record last year. With the prohibition expense of maintaining a proper speedway, measuring at least 10 miles, Daytona Beach furnished a natural speedway.
