SATURDAY, AUGUST 30, 1919 MANY AUTO RAC ENTRIES COMING Cadillac, Stutz, Hud: Hudson and Ste- phen Cars Entered Thus Far For Roal Thriller at Douglas DOUGL AS, One Aug. 30.—Al- tho formal entry has not been made\ for some of the cars it is understood that a number of local men have de- cided to place their machines in the! speed contest at the state fair next month. J. A. Ward of the Douglas Electric Light company, has already entered his Cadillac car and will driye it himself. C. W. Gaeth will enter his UNDER-GROUND TUNNEL IS BIG SA eats OF TIME \ en times with IN FAR TH j nel system rivaling the dreams of an-| Gath writers has been in existence} An underground railway and tun for several years at the immense} | plant of the B. F. Goodrich Rubber company, at Akron, Ohio. The system was installed as a sav-\ jer of time and labor in inter-de- partmental transportation and has} amply proven its worth. There are 23,000 feet of tunnel—over four} miles—in the system. Each tunnel| is 20 feet wide, walled d concrete and ten fe There are nine el ic tractors in contsant use and 90 trailers are hooked on behind this fleet of “lo- | comotives.” The system connects the | 63 buildings forming the factory | equipment of the company. During the last year the system Stutz which will be driven by George jhandled 40,000,000 pounds of freight L, Kelly. It was stated a few days; ago that Charles Saul intended to en- ter his Hudson Super-Six and that Max Smith would enter one of his Stephens cars, driven by Henderson who won all track events at the re cent tovrnament at Hot Springs, S. Other entries will undoubtedly be made within the coming week and a great deal of interest is being shown in the racing events. | In the event calling for entries of | 20 to 30 horse-power a number of Fords have been sled and it is un- derstood that others are to be made} in the near future. CHANGES ON 1920 BUICK NUMEROUS NOTSPECTACULAR Good Common-Sense n-Sense Changes that Make for Better Service, is Announced by Factory Official per month, nearly 1,600,600 pounds per day. That means nearly half a billion pounds of freight a year. The Goodrich ‘tunnel system has a regular schedule, train dispatchers, motive power superintendents and the like. Regular traffic rules are in use and the engineers and conductors on the trains must observe them care- fully. The tunnels are so arranged .that the trucks can be run out on the floors or basement of a building and the tractor and a trialer unhoo and run on an elevator and ea ried to any floor desired. The load can then be hauled to its destina- tion and thus save four handlings of material, that of unloading the truck, loading the elevator, unloading the elevator, and placing it in its posi- tion on the floor. pee 18,000 MILES WITHOUT EVEN CHANGING A TIRE Proof of the uniformly good serv-| ice obtainable these days from stan- | dard makes of automobile tires is con- tained in record of performance kept |by the commissioners of Coweta | county, Georgia. In an Overland car, the superin- ee | that many more miles were che off on the \ the four. This record was made in the face f difficult road conditions, ‘ a load of five to ten for other cars. Willare speedometer on three of To those+whe are familtwe=with| tendent of county works drove over } Buick methods, it is hardly necessary! 18,000 miles before a single tire was | to say that the improvements on the| changed on the set of Fisk tires with | Buick cars for 1920, while numerous, | are not spectacular or revolutionary, | ~ says E. T. Strong, general sales man- ager at the Buick factory. They are good, common-sense changes in de- sign that make for better perform- ance, easier operation, greater com- fort and improved appearance. In other words, wherever the demands of increased utility have paved the; way for improvements, those improve- ments have been made. This is what the motorist wants— a tried and true mechanism to which have been added comforts and con- veniences that increase its serv bility, without sacrificing dependa- bility in the slightest degree. For nearly 20 years it has been the Buick policy to adhere steadfast- ly to certain principles of design and’ manufacture, and for the past few seasons the energies of the whole organization have been devoted to the development of six useful mod- els, as being best adapted to the needs of those who are logical Buick purchasers. So in this respect, also, the Buick line for 1920 is an illus- tration of Buick’ co tency. eet eee TIRE TAPE IS SAID TO BE VERY USEFUL Tire tape ,is to the automobilist what a bandage is to a Red Cross nurse, and a man who drives a car would as soon think of leaving it out of his tool box as a Red Cross nurse would think of leaving a bandage out of her first-aid kit. The United States Tire company advises all its patrons to include a roll of its tape in their equipment. Its uses are innumerable. It is most frequently used to reinforce bad spots caused by blow-outs and punctures. It is also valuable for winding“‘leaky” electric wires or making temporary repairs to broken rods or rattling parts. U. S. TIRE MEN | CAREFULLY TRAINED | A conference of the service men of the United States Tire company was held recently at the company’s} Hartford factory. The gathering in-| cluded men from every state. The service men form that part of the company’s staff which advises the consumer of the best means of get- ting the most miles out of his tires. The purpose of the conference was to acquaint the service men fully with the latest developments in tire man- ufacture and the best means of avoid- ing tire trouble. — Miss Maude Spacht, of.
