Automobile Asee-| ‘ ciation Asks Motorists and ‘ Motor Clubs te Act “association today broadcast A strong appeal urging relentless war. fare ‘en the “hit-and-run” drivers «The appeal, which went out under | the name of Thi ne tention which it deserved. the need of an organized cafhpaign by the motorists generally to do away ‘ with this. species of driver, Mr. Henry’s statement pointed out that the fact that in some cases it is difficult to get at the hit-and-run driver is all the more reason why he should be dealt with in gor at fashion once the law gets hold of him. Two Ways to Help “There are two ways,” said Presi- dent Henry, “in which members of the A. A. A., motorists generally and other agencies can give invaluable assistance in removing this blot to motordom, ‘worst. “The first, succinetly, is to apprehend the hit Tun driver, or at least to give chase so that his license number can be made available immediately to the police. It often happens that motorists who have an opportunity, to perform this service are more interested in seeing what has happened to the victim of th accident than they are in capturing the person responsible for it. ) +, “Club members and: others, I am / sisure, will be more than willing to do y ‘heir share in this respect. Such a movement already has been started by many clubs affiliated with the American Automobile association. “The second way i: ore complex and seems to wire more than the cooperation merely of motorists.

The American University Union, in the boulevard Saint Germain, is swamped with demands for cata- logs, syllabuses and other univer- sity literature, as well as appeals for help in finding rooms, engag- ing tutors and the like. were The influence of American auto- motive practice is becoming more and more apparent in the French industry. This shown particu- larly in the growing favor for six inder machines. Twenty new six inder models are on the market this year. The French automobil- \bilist demands above all economy, high speed and as much comfort as is compatible with those conditions. Consequently all the new ix cylinder engines are small, varying from 1,200 cubic centimenters to 2,500 in capacity, ith engine speeds up to 3,500 revolutions per minute.

Sir John and Lady Lavery, just iback from the states, had such a \ time in New York and Pitts- that they are planning an- other visit within the next few months. | Sir John believes that numerous valuable oil paints in the United ites are being damaged or ruined the ravages of the heat arising from steam radiators. “I doubt,” said the artist, “whether the climate of the United States is any more injurious to works of art than that of Europe, but I do believe the overheated atmosphere of museums and resi- dences in which there are oil paint- her oa and tapestries can not be than a serious menace.” Sir John asserted that in the art luction and illustration the King George, after nearly two months away from London, in has taken up horseback Park, much to the tification of numerous visiting " .

Sixty prisoners slept soundly within. “What are you doing there?” asked the policeman. “Looking after the jail so NO prisoners escape,” replied the con- vict, who proved to be a regular serving five years. “Where is Mallet, the regular keeper?” queried the cop. “Across the street,” replied the ‘burglar, pointing to a cafe.

An unusually dry period, com- bined with an extremely hot sum- mer, cut down the quantity of wine produced in 1926. Plant parasites and blight did their bit in reducing the amount. But those grapes that did survive the season are declared by the experts to have produced a full bodied wine of delightful bouquet and excellent flavor, with splendid keeping qualities. In the Bordeaux country especial- ly, a wine was produced which, it is predicted, will equal some of the vintage of the most famous years in the last century. 3 Berlin, Oct. 30.—! dent duels, staged for the benefit of tourists who want to see the “real” German University life, have sent the police on a cleanup cam- paign throughout the Rhineland. An American, visiting his former home in the Rhineland exposed the |fraud to the police. Six road- house keepers near Heidelberg, ;Frenkfort and.Gologne have been arrested. They are charged with collecting admission fees ranging from 25 cents to $1 to witness the duels which tourists were told were regularly fought in the roadhouse court yards by members of student fraternities. Police found professional duelists, posing as students, fighting in jackets stained with blood repre- sented ‘as having flowed from wounds received immediately previous encounters. The blood was that of chickens. The police found also there was no su: reason why the heads of duelists were swathed in bandages. * Nothing better illustrates the change from monarchism.to democ- racy in Germany, said Karl Sever- ing, recently resigned as.
