HAZARDOUS DRIVING
Competitors in Monte Carlo Rally MANY ADVENTURES Monte Carlo, January 23. The Monte Carlo motor rally is providing hair-raising adventures. One driver, falling asleep, crashed over a precipice and was uninjured, though the car was smashed. Another, from Palermo, encountered a snowstorm in the Apennines, a sandstorm in Austria, and then extreme cold. A Briton, driving from Umea, in the Arctic Circle, saw eight cars upside down near the German frontier. Another crashed into a motor-lorry after a gale bad swept away the windscreen. Cathcart Jones, driving from Stavanger, Norway, was the first arrival in the rally, which he lescribes as more strenuous than the Melbourne Air Race.
