Abstract
THE water-speed record set up on August 19 by Sir Malcolm Campbell has quickly been followed by a new record for speed on land. Mr. John Cobb, of London, in his Railton Red Lion motor-car, at Bonneville Salt Flats, Utah, is reported to have reached an average speed of 368·85 m.p.h. over a measured mile. The previous record of 357·70 m.p.h. was set up over the same course last September by Captain G. E. T. Eyston.
