SATURDAY EVENING, HARRISBURG Ps6B& TELEGRAPH JUNE 10, 1916 GREATEST WOMAN GYMNAST IS REPUTATION OF LILY LEITZEL IBS ; : x f y , T Admirers of Lily Leilzel say she is' the greatest woman gymnast in the world. Miss Leitzel. who is a very modest young lady, makes no suclvas i sertlon. but she will tell you, with much pride, that, t>f all the feet that skip through the aerial riggings of eircusdom, hers are the smallest. Contrary to what might be expect ed in a performer who executes feats of strength never before attempted by a woman aerialist, Lily Leitzel weighs less than 100 pounds, wears a No. 12. child's size, shoe, and possesses hands proportionately small. Next to Jeanne Rae, who plays the role of "Cinder ella" in this season's big spectacle, she has the smallest foot of all the feminine actors with the Ringling Brothers' Circus. Lily Leitzel is not yet twenty years 1 old. She likes to talk about her life and work. Said she recently: "There's so much talk about 'votes for women' these days that 'exercise for women' seems to have been lost j sight of to a great extent. All cannot he great athletes and probably many I would not care to be. But many an ache and many an ill could be avoided , through consistent and constant exer | else. The excuse 'I am not strong Believe Pommern Sank in Sea Fight Was New Cruiser j London. June 10. The German warship Pommern, which was sunk i in the battle off Jutland, was not the battleship of that name, but a recently completed battle cruiser, according to I a Copenhagen dispatch to the Ex ! change Telegraph Company, quoting a sea captain, who is a frequent visitor to German ports. The battle ship which was completed In 1905. was torpedoed in the Baltic in July 1915. according to the captain. Admiraltv officials here have ex pressed their belief to a representa tive of the Associated Press that the Pommern, which was sunk in the great naval battle was a new capital I ship. They point out that the com-; mander of a British submarine re : ported that he had torpedoed the old 1 I battleship Pommern in July 1915 and j this report they claim was confirmed by survivors of the battleship who were landed wearing her cap band. I enough to stand exercises' is, in my opinion and expedience, the excuse of , a lazy woman, i was almost as tiny as 1 am now when I first began my life work. Xor was I strong physical ly. My mother was my teacher and she began by giving me very easy and ; short exercises. Gradually 1 grew more hardy and as I progressed my lessons ' hecame more strenuous. Now it is child's play for me to perform from I thirty to forty giant swings with one I hand while swinging fl'om a rope in midair. I never fear ills and haven't liad so much as a cold in years. Let my I sisters who complain of poor health ! exercise consistently and they will be s well in both mind and body always." | Miss Leitzel is a native of Prague, i Bohemia, and comes from a family of performers. She is but one of three | score of aerialists who will come here : with Ringllng Brothers' Circus next ! Wednesday, but while she executes her I great giant half flanges "all else on j the program is brought to a halt. The Ringlings are this season traveling 400 arenic artists, the gorgeous fairyland spectacle, "Cinderella" and a menag erie of 1.008 wild animals. It is said to be the greatest circus ever offered in the care-er of the famous showmen.

I —WW———-—■ The Chandler Leads in Price and Style and Certainty of Service NEVER before has the Chandler leadership been so obvious to so many people as it is now, at the height of the 1916 season. At a time when so many cars are "marked up" a hundred dollars or more, the Chandler leads with the same low price established eighteen months ago. In the midst of a horde of new types and styles of engines, "The Mar velous Motor" leads in certainty of service. Built in the Chandler factory ever since the first Chandler car was marketed this famous motor, —refined, more powerful, more flexible, —still leads most distinctly because free from any hint of experimentation or uncertain theor>. And Chandler leads quite as clearly in beauty of body design, refine ment of finish in every detail and luxury of upholstering. It is not surprising that many thousands of new owners have joined the Chandler ranks this year.

If you're laywer was a wee bit stuff but seemingly perfectly happy with it all to-day, the chances are that he attended the first annual picnic of the Dauphin County Bar Association yesterduy at Inglenook. Forty-six attended the outing and the guests included President Judge George Kunkel and Additional Law Judge S. J. M. McCarrell. Dauphin county courts, and Judge W. M. Seibert, Perry county courts, Prothonotary Harry F\ Holler, Recorder James K. Lenta and Sheriff W. W. Caldwell. The party motored to the Inglenook Club and returned late last evening. The committee of arrangements Included John Fox Weiss. J. H. Shopp and Charles C. Stroll. Power of Four-wheel Tractor Demonstrated Although motor buses are driving the street cars out of business in many parts of the country, a motor truck saved the day for the street car company in Conneaut, Ohio. The car tracks in State street in Steam Shovel Town are torn up for improvements, and In consequence it was necessary for passengers to transfer, and for the car company to run extra street cars at one end of the line to take care of the Decoration Day traffic. Horses tried, and failed, to pull the street cars over the trackless block. The car company was in a quandary. A Jeffery Quad, the truck that drives, brakes and steers on all four wheels, was passing. The driver hitched tip to the street car, and the truck with power in all four wheels towed the pay-as-you-enter vehicle over to the tracks at the other end of the street without hesitation. Lord Gray Establishes 24-Hour Traffic Record Establishing a new world's record 'or continuoi's driving in congested city traffic, Ixird Douglas Gray, a Scotch nobleman and British army aviator, drove a Chalmers Six-30 tour ing car 368.7 miles in 24 hours over the busiest streets of New York City recently. In making the run. Lord Gray bet tered the bent previous record made by himself In London in 1913, of 252 miles in a Vauxhall car. On his New York test, he carried two representa tives of the A. A. A. who testified to the correctness of the car's perform ance. "We have had so many accounts of speed tests and trials made by special cars ,under ideal conditions, that I thought it an excellent idea to show the motoring public just what the or dinary businessman can accomplish with a stock car under adverse condi tions" said Lord Gray, in speaking of his test. "With this idea In view. I decided to repeat a test I made some years ago in London. That test was to drive a car for 24 hours in dense city traffic. I used the ordinary stock Chalmers Six-30, owned by my father-in-law, Willard Wilson, of New York City. This car had been in daily use for four months and is one of the best cars X have ever driven. "The route 1 selected wafs from Fif tieth street and Broadway, up Broad way to the famous Abbey Hill, back via Fort Washington avenue to Broad way, to Forty-second street, thence across to Fifth avenue, down Fifth avenue to Eighth street, thence across to Lafayette, then down to Brooklyn bridge and the Battery, returning over the same route. "Traffic conditions were so much worse than in my London test as to add greatly to the difficulties. I esti mate that four hours were lost in stops at busy corners and threading the mazes of theater and shopping crowds. The performance of the 3,400 R. F. M. motor in traffic was a revelation to me and 1 have never seen its equal on grades. Abbey Hill where a big ma jority of cars are compelled to change gears, was taken on high speed with the Chalmers on each of the fourteen circuits of the course. The engine ran the full 24 hours without a miss or stop." Gray is one of the leading British amateur drivers, in addition to having been a flying expert with the allied forces until several months ago. In 1912, he won the Royal Rus sian reliability trials, capturing six prizes, Including the Czar's plate. During his New York run, the Brit ish driver was forced to make 147 full stops. His lowest mileage (nine miles) was made in the third hour, in which he made 18 stops; and his larg est mileage (17.3 miles} was scored in the nineteenth hour, in which he raced without a stop. His greatest number of stops, 29 in all, was made in the fifth hour. Fourteen circuits of the 26.3 mile course were made on the 24- hour run. His fastest flight up Abbey Hill was at the rate of 36 miles per hour and his slowest at the rate of 27 miles per hour. Dodge Brothers Cars in Preparedness Act Boston held its big Preparedness parade on Saturday, May 27, and the Henshaw Motor Company, dealer in Dodge Brothers motorcars in Boston, played a prominent part in the pro ceedings. The entire Harvard regiment, con sisting or approximately 1,000 students of the great University who have en listed to learn military tactics, were conveyed from Cambridge to Boston in c. fleet of Dodge Brothers cars. Car owners in Boston and other Dodge Brothers dealers in New Eng land co-operated with the Henshaw Motor Company to furnished enough cars to care tor all the young soldiers. The parade of the fleet of Dodge Brothers cars attracted almost as much attention in some quarters as did the main parade. The cars were decorated and a band enlivened the line of march. Resorts MT.
