WADDELL PUBLICITY MAN FOR SPEEDWAY
Captain Al G. Waddell, formerly automobile editor of the Los Angeles Times, advertising manager for the Chevrolet Motor Co., of Calif., and member of the contest board of the A. A. A. was yesterday appointed special feature writer on the Los Angeles Speedway account by the Marry Elliott Advertising Service.
Waddell is one of the best known automobile racing authorities in America having spent years of his life following the activities of various speed kings. Since his return from overseas, where he was in command of a battery of French 75's in the A. E. F. Waddell has retained his close touch with racing activities by reason of his connection with Cliff Durant, famous millionaire race driver and sportsman.
"Waddell is one of the greatest racing authorities of the country and his knowledge of the drivers' various hobbies, superstitions and fancies will enable him to write knowingly of their prospects in forthcoming speedway events," said Harry Elliott, in commenting on Waddell's appointment.
The forthcoming event at the Los Angeles Speedway on Feb. 22nd will be one of the greatest sporting events of the year in California and the absolutely correct information on the drivers who will compete, together with an analysis of their cars, their personalities and their chances at the prize money will be of prime importance to the sport loving California public."
Waddell is enthusiastic over the prospects for the coming race. The announcement of new drivers and the fact that the February event is going to be a 250 mile race for a juicy purse, all point to a bitter fight between the various drivers and a battle to the finish on the Beverly Bowl.
"It would not surprise me a bit to see the world's record for the 250-mile distance take another tumble when the speed boys go out for the money on Washington's birthday," said Waddell.
"In my opinion it will be one of the most interesting RUSH DELIVERY OF PIPE AT FULLERTON
Three additional trucks and trailers have been added to the fleet that is transporting the water pipe from the harbor, making 11 of each now in operation, and the pipe is now being landed here at the rate of 110 tons daily.
On this basis, the 100 tons in the first consignment will very soon be on the ground and ready for the construction contractor to take charge.
Members of the force working out of the city engineer's office, now numbering 11 men, have been assigned to the job of meeting the trucks as they drive in, either by night or day to "spot" the material, that is, indicate to the driver just where each particular size of pipe and fitting is to be unloaded.
Six of the engineering forces are working in the water extension project, some of them doing night work in order that things may be kept moving to the best advantage. Of the others, one is employed in the inspection of ornamental light construction, one is doing inspection work at the reservoir in Hillcrest Park and three are doing engineering in connection with streets and walks in the new sub-divisions.

World-Wide Preference for Cadillac Results from Superior Quality
The Cadillac outsells, by a volume nearly one-third greater, all other carators above its own price.
Sales are not especially significant when price is the chief incentive—but when quality is the test, as in the case of the Cadillac, volume of preference is valid and positive proof of superiority.
It is proof of superiority because those who buy the Cadillac are seeking, first and foremost, the very best car they can acquire, regardless of price.
They represent, in every community, men and women with whom comfort and certainty of performance form the one and only consideration.

EXPECT INCREASE IN LINCOLN ACTIVITY
Increased activities at the great Lincoln factories in Detroit are expected immediately after Feb. 4, the date which the Court has set to congrummate plans for the transfer of the plants. By placing orders for materials to be delivered perhaps after its supervision as receiver shall have ceased, the Detroit Trust Co. has made it possible for the new organization to get under way without serious delay.
To date, no bids are known to be in prospect besides the $8,000,000 offer of the Ford interests, made in association with the Lelands who founded the Lincoln Company, and who, in the event this bid is accepted, will continue in the active management of the new organization.
It will doubtless prove a source of much gratification to motordom at large that in such circumstances there are no material changes contemplated in Lincoln policies as far as concerns motor car purchasers. There have been a number of Leland-built cars in the Ford private garages for some years past, and in view of the high esteem in which the Fords have always held Leland practices and ideals, it could hardly be expected that they would have any inclination to do otherwise than thoroughly endorse the preservation of the quality standards upon which the Lincoln car was founded. In fact, both Mr. Ford and Mr. Leland have repeatedly gone on record that it will be their purpose unalterably to maintain the established Leland standards.
It has also been stated by the same men that there will be no disposition to force production beyond the dictates of sound judgment. It is expected however that new conditions will effect certain benefits which can be passed along to purchasers in the way of more attractive prices.
Among the other advantages which are expected to be derived from the contemplated Leland-Ford affiliation, it is seen that the new Lincoln Company will be assured of abundant funds to meet the needs of legitimate

ORDINO TO ENTER SPEEDWAY RACES
Nico Bordino, premier Italian speedway, is now on the high seas en route to California, where he is to set a Flat in the 250 mile speed schedule for the Los Angeles Speedway Feb. 22. Bordino sailed from Genoa on the S. S. Colombo, 22nd and is due to arrive in New York Feb. 6th. He is to reach Angeles on Feb. 14th, where he will be met by a large delegation of pilots who are already planning reception.
The car which Bordino is bringing America is the 183 inch Fiat he drove in the Italian Grand Prix at慕西亚, before the king of Italy and Italian Court. It is recognized as one of the fastest cars in the world in the Boscia classic did 186 meters per hour.
This is the first time that a Flat has invaded this country since famous old Fiat 129's were bought over by the late David Bruce Town, Caleb Ibragg and the late Cancer Wishart.
While Bordino has never been in America, this is not the first visit to this country. According to the records of the racing sport, Nico Bordino rode with Ralph De laima on the Flat in the 1908 American Grand Prix event at Savanah, was in charge of the car and had been commissioned by the officials of the Flat factory at Torino, to bring into this country.
After the 1908 American invasion, Bordino returned to Italy and became mechanician to Vincento Lancia, recognized as the greatest of all foreign race drivers.
It was only after long years of service as a mechanic, that Bordino was finally given a Flat car to drive. He never driven any other car, having been with the Flat plant since boyhood when he went into the factory as an apprentice. During the World War, when the Flat factory was adding cars and trucks for the Italian Government, Bordino had charge.

VISCOUNT BRYCE FRIEND OF U. S., DIES
America has lost a loyal and steadfast friend; Britain has been bereft of one of her most brilliant and versatile minds; and the world is poorer because a great soul has passed into eternity with the death of Viscount James Bryce. So strong and so conspicuous was his affection and admiration for America, Viscount Bryce some times was called the "English Yankee." His five years' service as British ambassador at Washington was notable, and in that period he manifested his attachment for this country many times in many ways.
But the greatest service Viscount Bryce did in this country, perhaps, was in his famous work, "The American Commonwealth," a philosophical study of the evolution of democratic ideals in America. It is noteworthy that of the three greatest philosophical works dealing with American history and democratic development on this continent; two of them were by foreigners—"The American Commonwealth," by Viscount Bryce, and "Democracy in America," by de Tocqueville. The third one is Woodrow Wilson's "Constitutional History of the United States."
Men like Viscount Bryce serve to keep alive the sincere esteem and the ties of friendship between the United States and the mother country. The passing of this truly great man will be mourned in sincerity in this country.
