remainder accompanying machines.
The tall course is from New York city
to Boston and return. a distance at
488% miles, and Nor-walk is the noon
control of the first day‘s run.

' As each of the. machines contained
at least two personasnd many tour
and live, it means that there wore be
tween live and I1): hundred automo~
billets here at noon. Dinner was serv-
ed at the Hotel Norwaih to this small
army by Messrs. Niblock and Russell
in continents ot seventy, this being
the seating capacity of the dining
room at the hotel.

The committee from the club which
has charge of the run is composed of
Winthrop E. Bcarritt. president at the
club. and chairman of the committee:

I“. Chamberlain. John A. Hill and
S. M. Butler. secretary. The members
of the committee arrived in town
shortly .after 12 oclook. Mr. Butler.
when seen by a reporter, stated that
so far as he knew there were no mis-
haps along the road. Of course there
were several who hadtire troubles.

The first car to arrive in front oi the
control was a big meaty-four horse
power gasoline machine. made by the
Ohio Automobile Com any. and enter-
ed and driven by Her an W Whipple.
This arrived just at noon. The rear
tire on the his machine exploded as it
passed the Norwalh Club building.
Whipplo's machine weighs 8.000 lbs.
The second .10 arrive was Kenneth
Skinner. at 13:01. driving his Dc Dion
Boston machine.-
mrriage. weighing 18,00 pounds. and
has an eight horse power engine. The
third and tour-1h machines were neat
little Oldsmobiles, which were entered
by the Oldsmobile Company. The driv-
ers were R. M. Owen and 0.1-! .Page.

From 12: 06 for the next half hour
the machines began to‘ arrive in great
numbers The Norwalk control was
supposed to open up at 12:10. but
probably a doses machines arrived
from one to .1011 minutes ahead or this
time. Every machine wuich entered
the run carries an oilioial observer.
