Speed of Over Three Miles a Minute Must Be .Made to Break 1920 Pulitzer Race Record Three miles a minute is the terrific speed record which must be broken here Nov. 3 in the 1921 race for the Pulitzer trophy the world's most important prize for speed in the upper realm if a new record is to be established. Last year the handsome silver fig- ure of a woman holding in her up lifted hands an airplane was won by Capt. Corliss C. Moslcy, U. S. A., driving a Verville ship powered with a 600-horsepower Packard motor. 178 Miles an Hour. And Captain Mosley won for him self at the same time the' title of "Three Miles a Minute Man," for his rate of speed over the long course of 132 miles was just a fraction less than that rate. To be exact, his sus tained velocity was 178 miles an hour, he having covered the course in 44 minutes 29.57 seconds, making three turns (because his route was triangular) to each of the six laps he covered, or 18 turns in all. It is too early to predict now that there will be any fracture of this rec ord, according to Earl W. Porter, president of the Omaha Aero club, under whose auspices the Pulitzer race will be held, but some daring aviators of national repute will com pete. Will Defend Cup. Captain Mosley will defend his ti tle and cup again. But whereas last year his plane traveled 132 miles in 44 minutes 29 seconds, experts ar ranging for the coming race predict the winner must do better than 178 miles an hour to gain first place. One of the interesting entrants is a new type of biplane, which is to be entered by the navy. The navy has not announced the speed this new ship has attained. Prizes totaling $15,006 have been offered by the Omaha club for win ners in the air meet. The events will consist of derbies, sprints, climbs, stunts by balloons and planes and a flying boat.

CWll IMP -:- VvqcL TCaztey The particular individual -who seems to be the best in the league at it is Fred Haney, Omaha infielder, who has stolen something like 34 bases thus far this season. It is said of Fred that he loves to steal bases so much that it is neces sary to nail 'em down out at league park. Other teams over the circuit report that every time the Omaha team departs there is a sack or two missing, and since Fred ras an awful reputation along this line, the finger of suspicion naturally points toward him.
