SUPER SIX BATTLES
SNOW IN THE SIERRAS
Car Saves Land Seekers from Hav

Mountain Altitudes.
San Francisco, Jan. 14. Caught
Jn a heavy snowstorm on a trip across
he mountains to Smith Valley, Ne

Tone to file claims on some desert
'.and. a party of motorists in a Hud
son Super-Six had to fight their, way
against heavy odds which threaten
?d every minute to stall their car in
the high altitudes and snow it in for
the winter.
The party consisted of A. H. Pat
erson, the famous racing driver, and
'hree others. In crossing the moun
tains they were forced to make their
way against heavy snowstorms and
to make detours because of washed
mt bridges. At one point they were
unable to obtain gasoline but con
tinued the trip on kerosene, which
they obtained from two lanterns
found in a roadside shack.
On the return trip the weather
conditions were worse, the snow hav
ing been piled across the trails in
deep drifts, especially in Luther pass,
which is 7,900 feet in altitude. "As
the storm was increasing in sever
ity." said Patterson. "I realized that
if we didn't get out of Lake Valley
at once, we would be hung up there
for the winter.
"So we started up the Echo grade.
It's two miles to the top and it took
us three hours and a quarter to make
it. fighting through snow ranging
from fourteen to twenty-four inches
in depth, but that car pujled us safe
ly through."

It is reported that about one
o'clock this morning two of our

contested battle, on account of the
connection by one of the other one's
name, with some girl.
This morning the two gentlemen
who had been parted, were at the
police station awaiting fcr the open
ing of the court, while there had
been no complant filed. Whether
they were able to plead guilty or
not, it is supposed the mooted ques

the combatants were adjusted in
the fistic encounter at the early
meet this morning.
