ULSTER GRAND PRIX.
LAP RECORDS BROKEN. RIDER SERIOUSLY INJURED. United Press Assn.—Elec. Tel. Copyright. BELFAST, August 27. Lap records were continuously broken in the Ulster Grand Prix, the fastest motor-cyole road race ever run. While Guthrie was hurtling behind Rusk round a bend at 100 miles an hour their machines skidded and Rusk seriously injured one hand. Guthrie astonished the spectators by re-mounting his Norton. He won the race, averaging 90 to 98 miles an hour. Handley, also riding a Norton, was second.
