Cv mu-- Establishes Unique Recerd on Speedway Driving a strictly stock oar, and using the same Gulf No-Nox Ethyl gasoline and Onlfpride OU whiob are available to all motor ists at service stations along the highway, Ralph DePalma, 55- year old veteran racing driver, on Monday, May 10, 1937, covered the 500 mile run on the India napolis Speedway at an average speed that was 7.6 miles per hour better than the fastest racing car was able to do in 1911. DePalma’s run was part of the twenty-fifth anniversary celebra tion tor the ludlanapol'is Speed way contests, and the Idea was to see how modern stock automo biles and stock gasolines and Inb- ri^ts eotnpare with racing care, and! jHiels and Inbricants of a Tkie mn was sanctioned and timed hy the 0onte(9t Board of the American Automobile Asso ciation. DePalma’s offlcal aver age time for the run was 82.19 miles per hour.' The Car was a V-8 LaSalle convertible coupe. After the first few laps around the famous Indianapolis Speed way course, there was little doubt that DePalraa would 'beat Ray Harrouii’s championship-winning average of 74.59 miles per hour, made in the race of 191T. Three pit-stops were made during the run for refueling, and despite this loss of time the car held Its aver age speed well above the 80-mile per-hour mark, Gulfpride Oil was used in the engine and no oil was added dur ing the punishing grind, as only about one-half pint of oil was used up. The run proved beyond doubt that modern passenger cars and stock gasolines and lubricants are far and away ahead of everything that the speedway had In 1911. Throughout his 500-mile grind over tbie Indianapolis bricks De- Palma did not experience the .slightest trouble with Ills car. fuel or lubricants, which speaks well for the dependability of modern automobiles and gasolines as well as for their speed and efficiiency. MYSTERIOUS AD MAY BE LINK IN KIDNAPING Stony Brook, N. Y., June 16.— A mysterious advertisement, pub lished in a New York newspaper, led to belief today that a contact had been established with the per son or persons responsible for the disappearance of Mrs. Alice Mc- Donell Parsons from her Long Meadow farm estate a week ago. No word came from any member of the Parsons family, however, and investagaitors ireported 'no progress” in their efforts to find the 38-year-old society matron. 'This advertisement appeared: “M. Sennet. Come home. Tele phone Huntington 97.” The telephone number is that of Gerald M. Livingston, of West Neck Road, Huntington, N. Y., near the I^rsons’ farm. Living ston denied that he had inserted the ad, and said he had no desire to act as intermediary. i Meanwhile, New York police questioned a taxi driver who re ported early today that a woman resembling Mrs. Pearson rode with him from midtown Manhattan last night to the Pennsylvania station. The driver, Nat Lewis, said that another woman and a man accom panied the woman he believed to be'the missing heiress. Federal agents took charge of .attf'phas^ ’.of the 'investigation to day. , llje official entiT of the Q^man*' who sappoSeAy have been merely assisting local Mthorities, xkas ba^ed on tha^lindi^gh law, which - presupposes ^ after seven days that the k^napers have lt«te. banodtiries with th^ federal statutes. .- -• \ —V 17-—7-7; Masp^^Notke I Special coRUhunication North Wilkeshoro lodge number'497, A. ,F.
