Tres- “Altoona Preparing for Spring Motor Racing. The puffing of a shifting engine moving a trainload of lumber on the special siding Monday signaled the famous Altoona speedway as a small opening of the sixth season as the ‘army of workmen swarmed over the mammoth board oval preparing it for the annual Flag day 200-mile cham- pionship classic on June 16, the track’s tenth event. Delayed by the late spring in prep- arations, intense activity will prevail at the colorful bowl for the next eight weeks, getting it in readiness for the arrival of the eighteen noted racing Pilots who will face the red starting ag. From the present indications, the Flag day event on the speedway at Tipton will be the only major classic held in the east, except for the In- dianapolis sweepstakes, during the fore part of the 1928 racing sea- in 1925. He is survived by one son | son, according to A. H. Means, sec- and a daughter, Plummer A. Swartz, of Elizabeth, N. J., and Mis Lydia, at home. Burial was made at Lew- istown on Monday.

C. : “The intense speed of the race cars in our previous nine big classics have made it necessary for us to spend thousands of dollars in strenghtening the racing deck to protect the drivers so far as humanly possible,” declared Frank P. Cramer, president of the speedway. “While it is impossible for us to completely protect the pilots be- cause of their own daring, as well as their terrific speed, yet we are using every effort to prevent further trag- edies similar to those which cost the lives of Howdy Wilcox, Jimmy Mur- phy, Joe Boyer and the many others.” With a crop of ticket clerks already filling advance reservations for the classic, racing experts predicted another monster crowd of spectators would witness the classic on June 16. i Thousands of orders have already been filled. : NANG X EX XIX XEN Xe XG XNA NE 00 BT 5 & 3 2 3 CS *0 dh x x & © oo : 1d oo , °0- KS : oe i OF THE COUNTY | $ 99 * & * & oo $ 3 AND WHY NOT ? : +0 . . ! > XY We're actually selling Shoes at prices that makes 3 % everybody who buys at this Gigantic Sale, send in i % their friends and neighbors and entire family to take oo y ; de % advantage of the GREATEST SAVINGS EVER OF- % 4% FERED heretofore. 2 %’ Qe i 2 * > 5 SINCE OUR ENTIRE STOCK WAS & : ORDERED SOLD | oo RS $ oo 5 3 ® ® ® 4 3 by Headquarters, prior to the re-organization of all £ 3 our stores, we have been busier than a pond of beavers. ¥ 0 s % a i Sell!
