Be Surpassed in Drop Kicking. New York, Oect, 20,—Football has een many great d goal artists. gome have been adept at driving the leather through the uprights via place kicks: some employed the drop kick In an effort to score; while still others w equally clever at both. Two of the greatest fleld goal kickers no doubt were Walter Eck sall of Chicago and Charley Brick- ley of Harvard, They were drop and place-kick experts de luxe, Eckers sall used to drop for the most part and Brickley, the place-boot. Each was dangerous anywhere within the rd line. ” ickie” in his day ranked as the best drop-kicker in the game. And | though that was nearly 20 years ago, |1t is not believed that anyone has ! since been developed who could out- | do the Chicagoan at his favorite end |of the pastime. Twice during his football career he Kkicked five field | goals in a game; once against Wis. | consin and once against Nebraska. | Brickley, at placement-goaling, like« | wise stood ace high. Time and again | he carried the Crimson to victory, al- most single-handed, through his abil« | ity to boot them across the bar. He | was a feared man by all opponents whenever Harvard had the ball in the foe's territory. Calm, and cool, Brick« ley was an almost sure shot from the field. His best work in this respect vas done against Yale, when the Cam- | bridge cleven ran up 15 points, all i made by Brickley's toe—five field goals. Earl Sprackling, old Brown quars- terback, was aiso a good field goal kicker, as was Charlie Barrett, Cor- nell; Capron, Minnesota; Cliff Sparks, Michigan; Chic Harley, Ohio State, [and so on. But none could compare with Eckersall and Brickley for con- sistency. | JEWETT SIX BUILT Look at the Way It’s Built— A Sturdy Six—Not a Light Six SOME folks make a mistake, They class the new Jewett Six with “light” sixes. It costs so little more than “light” sixes. But Jewett is a very different car. It is sturdy, powerful, rugged, fine performing. To find a car of the new Jewett's sturdiness you must pay $200 to $500 more, It is the only car in the thousand-dollarfield built first forsturdiness,depend- ability and performance. Jewett’s six-cylinder, 50 horse-power motor fiils the hood. One look at the motor of any other comparable car and you'll realize why Jewett will pass most any car on a hill. Jewett accelerates from § to 25 miles an hour in 7 seconds, in high gear. Such power was never before put into a car Nor is any car near the new Jewett's size and price 0 strongly built. Jewett touring car weighs 2805 Ibs. without equipment. This is 200 to 400 lbs. more than “light” sixes. These additional pounds mean sturdier construction —thousands and thousands of miles— longer life. And more comfort and smoothness every Ask any Jewett owner to lift the hood and show you the wzlk:lh:tx‘lbuflnget:e in and let us show you, not only motor, but 6-i Paigs-Timken axles, front and rear, lllnch.d”phmel\mihmvnfl Tinpthn are 80% of its wheelbase, Then you'll see why Jewett is called a Sturdy Six!
