We reproduce a photograph of Mr Scott Michie, the Sanquhar racing motor cyclist, who is a popular performer on all the Continental dirt tracks. The photograph was taken at Zagreb, Yugo-Slavia, in the course of his extensive tour of the dirt tracks of Central Europe, from which he has recently re-turned.  On many of his journeys, travelling by road, his experiences have been thrilling. One pleasing feature outstanding in the countries, particularly of Germany and Austria so lately (at) war (1914-1918?) with us, was the uniform and unmistakable sincerity of the kindness and friendliness shown him on every hand. It would appear that our late enemies have indeed buried the hatchet and are eager to smoke the pipe of peace.  

It is pleasing also to record that in none of those countries where this young countryman of ours carried off premier honours in international events, taken part in by picked riders from Denmark, Germany, France, Austria, Australia, etc., were feelings of jealousy or animosity aroused. On the contrary, the attentions he received on the occasion of some of his most notable successes against native competitors rivalled those bestowed on a Charlie Chaplin or a Mary Pickford. 

Amongst the most noteworthy successes gained by this young Scottich rider – of which he as brought back concrete evidence in the shape of interesting trophies and innumerable press notices and photographs, in diverse languages – are the winning of international contests in Breslau, Oberhattsen, Hamborn in Germany; Mislowitz, Poland; Zagreb, Yugo-Slavia; Nystedt, Denmark; etc., besides the creation of new records at various tracks, viz., to instance one in Checko-Slavakia, where he averaged 105 miles per hour on a particularly large track.
