THE ROXBORO FOURIER A|
FAMOUS ARGENTINE-RACE TO
STUDEBAKER FOR-1TH1RD TIME
t-t>?
Special-Six wins Annual tSouth American
Classic against big field of
American and European
racers. ' V
Buenos Aires, March? Pushing
ahead of a field of twenty-five American
and European contestants, a j
Studebaker Special-Six won, Tor the |
third consecutive year, the spectacular
Gran Projnio of Argentine, Sooth
America's foremost racing event.
Sr. Mariano de la Fnente drove
the Studebaker to victory over a
course- twice .the distance of former
years, and along roads in so hazard- i
ous condition that-only thirteen of 1
the twenty-five entries finishes the i
complete distance.
Distance was Doubled.
Do la Fuente has driven in a number
of previous Gran Premios, but
this \v{ts his first year behind the ]
wheel of a Studebaker. In the 1922
race he was bentep out for first place
by a Special-Six and la'st year again I
finished unsuccessful. So he conelud- ]
ed that thig-year he wontdcast- his lot
with Studebaker. <
Third and fourth prizes went to I
Gianinni and Fcrreyra respectively, i
both of whom also drove Studebaker
Special-Sixes, making a total of three
places won by Studebaker in this
year's race.
Studebaker's winning time was 24
hours and 45 miiiutes over a treach- j
erous course of 1,620 kilometers
(about 950 miles). ThtTrace last year
was 650 kilometers (465 miles). The
rhcers started- from here and made
their way to Rosario; thence to Cordoba,
and returned by the same route ;
to , Buenos Aires. ?
The Gran Premio is held annually i
under the auspices of. the Argentine |
Automobile Club. The hard service
to which cars are subjected in this
grind is greate# than many months
of ordinary driving.
So gruelling was the race this year
that nearly half the entries were com- !
pelled to drop out, due to mechanical |
lifftculties brought about by the road !
:onditioris over which the race was j
rqn. The famous Gran Premio is more
ban a test for speed. South Anjtri:an
motorists consider it a final eon, est
for gauging motor car endurance.
Wins For Third Time
The fact that a Studebaker, for
he third time, won this spee<bflight
igainst somei of the most expensive
European and American mal^gs^^fc
ommented on by the judges.
In 1922 the race was won Anonio
Ovides in a Studebaker. Wiliam-T.
Burke's Speciawsix was the "
irst car over the-line last year. The
itudebaker's victory here comes on j
he heels of similar achievements in j
South Africa, the Syrian Desert, Aus- \
raiia ana Jtvianaa.
RIPPLED BOY BEGINS
POULTRY CLUB WORK.
Newton, N. C. March 31. "Several
veeks ago Thomas Sipe, Conov^r, |,
loute 3, wrote asking me how he
night become a poultry club mem>er,
and stated *that he would like to
alk with me sometime in passing,"
fays j. Wt* Hendricks County Agent
for Catawba County. "I was impressid
with his letter and made a point
;o see the boy just as soon* as I could.
When I went to his home, I found a
i>oy 13 years old, and a cripple since
birth. He had spent several months
in the hospital and wasthen able to
move about on crutches. He said he
had been keeping up with club work
hrr the county, and especially with the
members in his community. He hod
decided to try and carry on some
poultry club work. .
"After talking'with, him for sometime
and explaining how*club work
is conducted, I found that he was
very much interested in chickens and
knew n grefiVdeal about them. I was
glad to enrortl Mm* as a c*ub member
even though he was badly handicapped
for the work. He decided to take
Brown Leghorns, and bought a small
pen of 20 birds. Just recently'I visited
his farm, and found him getting
along nicely with his project. He was
keeping a splendid record and could
show exactly the number of eggs secured
from his hens and the number
he has sold. He now has about 75.
young chicks hatched off. He is in-!
terested in his work and I am ex- j
pecting him to he "an outstanding club
member-Jpi a fiw years, even though
he is compeiied to do all hia walking
on crutches."

Why it is
Easy to Own
The Westinghouae Light and Power Plant has
demonstrated in actual day-in and day-out service on *J
forms that it is dependable and easy to operate. I
And now, by making it easy to own as well as easy . :
to operate, VVestinghouse has brought all the advan^
tgg.es.of elcr.tftc service v/ithin the reach of every *
* farmer and his family. Electric lights in the farm
house and buildings, electric household appliances, .
and electric power wherever needed, are made available
without delay.
The special VVestinghouse deferred payment plan
spreads thecost of the plant itself, the wiring and the
equipment, over a period, of twdVe months. After
making the first payment the farmer may elect; to pay
the balance in six, nine or twelve equal monthly payments.
Or, if he wishes, he may pay for the plant.
in one, two or three payments to be made after the
/ completion of hia crop harvests. . _
The complete flexibility of this plan makes It applicable
to every farmer's needs. You can install a
VVestinghouse Light and Power Pliant oh your farm, ,>
enioy the comfort and convenience it.will bring yon,
and pay fat it when your crops are sold. That's why
it is so easy to own. Let us tell ytM more about it.
