Chev. Car on a
Long Trip from

Brief messages from Capetown
which a few days ago chronicled the
start of a party of motorists headed
for London, England, made us the first
in a story of twentieth century adven-
turing that is likely to provide thrills
and drama galore before it ls conclud-

_ fed,

“It is a-stery ‘of a “tour” that will
wind through jungie trailg, over desert

inake-shift pontoons, through mud ane
swanps and -infested marshes, . Four
men are attempting the journey, 1
trail blazing ronte 10,000 miles Jong,
from Capetown, in the Southernmost
‘|part of Africa, to Cairo and . thence
on a swing through Europe to London.

A good share of the trip is over un-
charted Tnnds never before traversed
by a Stock car, amid jungie life, where
a tropleal sun burns down by duy, and
where the wilderness cchoes with the
threat of savage life at night. The
first leg .of the ~xun—Capetown . to
Cairo is sceducled, for completion in
40 days.

The transportation selected by the
adventurers consists of . a -Chevrolet:
