When Jimmy Murphy flashed over the wire a winner in the July 4 Kan-, sas City race he supplied the climax to a year of racing success for Champion spark plugs, such as ho other automotive equipment has ever bo-fore approached. in every big race since the fall of 1923 Champion spark plugs have been equipment on all the winning cars.

Of even more Importance, Champions have gono through these various races without change something previously unheard of in motorcar racing.

Shortly after Tommy Milton, on the dry lake bed at Lake Muroc, made the fastest mile ever covered by a human being with a small bore engine, when he drove his Champion-equipped Miller Special 151 miles an hour.
