His latest achievement in roaring along Day- tona Beach at 254 miles per hour— ¥ better than four miles a minute— ks his fifth world’s record run ven years. He had already set the mark well beyond anything ever achieved be- fore in land speed when he did 245 m.ph. a year ago. But when the Scot. heard “Wizard” Smith was tuning up on Ninety Mile Beach for a record attempt, he became a lit- tle apprehensive, forwith decided to make a quick trip to the United States and gained his objective, with very little ballyhoo. “Campbell, as you may have no- ticed ,doesn’t like to waste time on anything he wants to do,” remarked Bill Sturn, the driver’s able Ameri- can representative. “I don’t mean that he is hasty or tempermental. He concentrates on the job in hand and goes about it with the quickest possible dis- patch, His attitude toward the risks is typical. He dismisses the whole idea as mot worth discussing. As he has said, ‘What difference does it make whether you crack up going 150 or 250 miles an hour?’” Barney Longs for Wheel Barney Oldfield, who was at Daytona Beach to watch Camp- bell's run, talks about getting be- hind the wheel of a new Miller speed creation next year for an » attempt to bring the record back to America. T do not doubt Barney’s willing- ness or desire to take another chance at the spot where in 1910 he hit a new “high” of 131 miles per hour in his famous Blitzen Benz. It would be a great story if he should make a comeback and | set a new record 15 years after his own| i | 1 i |mark to 174224 in 1927.

Two years elapsed before Campbell regained the speed crown and he has now shoved it up a number of notches to safeguard the situation against the attacks of “Wizard” Smith for the time being. — e, — AH WING LEE AND PELZ GO TO DRAW PORTLAND, Oregon, March 16. —Ah Wing Lee and Benny Pelz, Portland lightweights, fought a fast six round draw here last night.
