“Death Valley Dodge," the famous
Dodge Brother* motor car that was
the vehicle of a trip last yoar through
Death Valley that attracted national
attention because of the nature of the
Journey, ha* won new fame on the
! coast.
Drivon by Taddy Tdlxlaff, the fam
ou» racing driver, the car made the
night trip over the mountains of Cali
fornia from Nnrdhoff, in the OJai
valley, to San Liu* Obispo in slightly
, more than 12 hours.
The ran was started at 10 o'clock
at night after all the wiseacres had
predicted that It would ha tmpoaalblo
to get through owing to the conditions
of the roads which are regarded us
exceedingly dangerous even in the day
time.
Tetalaff in discussing the trip said:
"It's alright when you have con
fidence in your ear. Thare were some
bad places on the road where we
wound around the edge of a precipice
and thare Vara various spota where
yoa wanted to be aura that both

Brothers motor ear and I bed every
confidence that it would sot bo the
fault of the cur if we faked."—Adr.
