CAPE TO CAIRO MOTOR RACE.

BRITISH ✔ GERMANS IN 5,800 MILES' CONTEST

On January 25th a party of Englishmen were to leave London for Cape Town, whence they will try to drive an all-British motor car to Chiro. A fortnight after their start from Cape Town a German party will follow by a slighly different route. It will be an international contest of skill and endurance.

The British party consists of five men under command of Captain Bede Bentley, who hee already driven a car through Somaliland and Abyssinia. The others are Captain Kelsey, African big-game huntor; Mr. John Henderson, London journalist experienced in Central African travel, a professional photographer, and a motor machinioiau.

Their route will be by way of the Transvaal, British Central Africa. Lake Tanganyika, and British East Africa to Fashoda, Khartam, and Cairo. Relays of petrol and other supplies are now being distributed along the proposed track. The expedition is assured of the cordial co-opera- tion of the Colonial Offico and the British South Africa Company. The Germans will be subsidised by their Government to the extent of £10,000.

The 5,800 miles from the Cape to Cairo will. it is hoped, be completed in about 120 days. In the untracked wastes of Central Africa a age for the car will have to be made by out. ting rough roade through high thorn jungles,
