It would not be anything new to
call auto racing the aport of Kings,
but really, no king In the olden days
, ever Imagined anything half bo thrill
ing as a moden speedway scene.
Popular Interest In high class auto
racing has never waned, and it Is
only the real high class stuff that is
put on the track at Lakewood Park
during the Southeastern Fairs and the
auto races during the fair this fall,
October 6 to 18, will be no excep
tion.
The thousands who witnessed the
eventB on this track on July Fourth
will never forget the thrills crowded
Into those minutes when the engines
of six-high-powered care roared around
tho track, courting death at every
turn, and the series of accidents—hap
pily. none of them fatal—which put
moBt of the cars out of the running,
so that the winner of the last race
finished the last eight miles on three
tires and a rim
Atlanta, ,Ga.—An interesting manu
facturers’ exhibits will be one of the
features of the fair In Atlanta this
fall.
The Southeastern Fair purposes
just ns much to increase the output
and productiveness of the Georgia fac
tory as It does the Georgia farm or
the Georgia hog or cattle ranch.
Although this Is accounted aS an
agricultural section, each year shows
more spindles and more manufactu-
j rles of every sort, and tho general
trend of the factory is southward.
! Georgia is called the Empire State
of the South and It is more nearly In
dependent of the rest of the world
for the necessities and luxuries of
life than any other part of the globe,
and happy, indeed, are. the people
who have such resources and can
bring bo close together the raw ma
terials of the forest, farm and mine,
that they will lie at the door of the
factory.
The display of road, bridge and
building materials and . construction
methods will be well worth seeing,
much progress being made in these
matters every year, .
Tribunal Of Powers Asks Cessation 01
Action By Either Side
Pending Hearing
One of these accidents furnishod an
>dUc
incident worthy of reproduction as a
cartoon comedy. A punctured tire
caused a car to leave the track, and
before the driver could regain con
trol he had crashed through the fence
in front of the grand stand and the
gear became locked In the reverse po
sition. Sticking to his Beat the driver
backed out of the wreckage and across
the line for a finish in fourth place
in the race, the backing car finally
being stopped by a collision with the
band stand. This is probably the only
auto race in which, a car ever finished
running backward.
Another racer took several panels
of fence on the side of the track with
out checking Ills speed or damaging
his car, while yet another came near
er death when his car ran into the
bank and did a triple somersault, iD
full view of the grand stand, but,
luckily, throwing the driver clear ol
the wreck.
The track at Lakewood in the
Southeastern Fair grounds is one oi
the beBt in the country, and for the
races during the Fair in October some
fit the greatest speedaters of the game
Girls Bake Bread
Again This Year
Atlanta, Ga.—No rivalry between
young people who entered various
contests at the Southeastern Fair laBt
year was keener than that between
the girls of the different counties in
the bread baking contest. The good
work of the girls attracted the atten
tion of all classes of the visitors at
the Fair and the great interest arous
ed warrants the permanence of this
eVent as a feature of the Fair.
Already the club girls of the dis
tricts in the state have held competi
tive events to determine the repre
sentatives to the state contest to bo
held at the Fair on October 11 and
12, and no doubt a larger class will
contest for the fdtetinction of being
the best breadmakers in the state, and
incidentally, for the prizes offered.
The contest will not be open to the
girls who entered the 1922 contest or
to first year club girls, or'to girls
from counties having .less than 63
girls doing bread work.
