F. Goodrich Rubber company, on August 11 Ray holds six world’s records in.events from 1000 yards to three miles. Ray was attracted to Akron and Goodrich thru their leadership in in dustrial athletics. Better_ facilities and more encouragement for the ath- lete, whether his specialty is baseball, horseshoe pitching, soccer, swimming or trap shooting, are probably offer- ed in Akron than in any other indus- trial city in the United States. Aside from being the greatest hu- man running machine the diminutive Joie is an expert mechanic. To watch Ray at work one would think he had little or no time for racing, so com- plete in his concentration and absorb- tion in the task before him. Ray will continue to defend his title of “‘best in the long runs” in the big national track and field meets and it is expected that he will shat- ter some of his own records. ———_____ SCHULTE HARDWARE 10 DEMONSTRATE MAJESTIC Casper is to have an official and from the factory will be at the Schulte store all next week explaining the various features and advantages of the Majestic stove.
