Dunning, 1011 American Bank Bullding, LARGER p(raucmm National Newspaper Representa- Angeles, Portland, | ), SUCCESS TO THE SOAP BOX DERBY Not one boy in a thousand who enters the All- American Soap Box Derby intends to become a pro- fessional race driver, yet many of the same qualities that distinguish the winning race driver—qualities that well developed by such activities as the Derby- those which make for winners in any field. Wwilbur Shaw, three time winner of the Indian- apolis Speedway race and who has served for the past three years as official started for the Soap Box Derby finals in Akron, says of the thousands of | Derby entrants he has met that invariably they are informed, intelligent youngsters, not only full are are alert, of the pep and punch you'd expect in boys of that | age but well versed in many of the traits we look | for in the men about us. Tomorrow Juneau will see the first Soap Box l)ubv ever held in Alaska or in a United States The race schtaclc will be the result or drudgery of thmking for omselv 5. President | THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 25, 194 CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING weeks nnd months of unflagging effort by boy en: ttrants and by the men of the Juneau Rotary Club and Daily Alaska Empire who aré sponsoring the | big cvent. The emphasis in this race is placed upon good sportsmanship, fair play and clean competition. Un-| der such conditions the Derby not only entertains boys but instructs them as well. The rules of the Derby in themselves place al high premium on inventiveness, and niné boys out of ten enjoy matching their wits against their fel- Jows. In addition, the builder of a winning car must | have done fwo things—studied with his head and | wotked with his hands. These are two attributes) that will pay dividends in the years to come, whethor[ ‘lhe boy eventually takes an office job or one in the | crafts. | Spectators will be genuinely surprised at the | quality of the cars these Juneau boys have built. Careful workmanship along sound, fundamental, basic planning has been the rule rather than the exception. Today, on the eve of the race, any one | of a dozen or more of the cars looks like a potential champion. Yet when the race is run, one car will something built into it that marks it as tops in its I class. It matters not that the edge the winning car | may have is in weight distribution, streamlining, careful balance, or whatnot—the important thing is | this: There is always a best. Fortunately, the Derby rules were originally de- signed and are each year reviewed in that light, to insure absolute equality of opportunity to each entrant. Yet within those rules is sufficient lati-| tude for each builder fo allow him to incorporate| |his own individual thinking, with the result that innovations have been frequent, ingenuity has been regularly displayed, and always, barring accident, of course, the best car has won. If there were any single word of advice we would | give a Derby driver tonight it would be just this: You have planned your best and built your best; now race { your best. And when the best car wins, be first to| congratulate the new champion. Dr. Gallup finds that American sentiment in| favor of a League of Nations is growing rapidly.
