Aug. 1.—Three students of Pennsylvania State Col- lege were marooned in Belifonte one night back in 1907 without a penny in their pockets. Tt was late and they were 12 miles from the college town. Watching their opportunity, the hoys made their way stealthily into a hotel, crept into an unoccupied room and spent the night, getting out carly before the landlord was up. Recently a well-dressed man registered at the hotel. He told the story of the three students, ad- mitting that he was one of them. He said his consclence had troubled him for 21 years about the unpaid bill, and insisted on paying for the room he and his chums had occu- pied. The present proprictor msaid hotel had changed hands. but he consented to accept the which he said he would for- ward to the former landlord at Au- the consclence-stricken former student did not care to have his name revealed.

NEW TYPE HOTOR 13 BEING STUDIED It Works on the Lever System for Power to Mr. and 1000 West Chicago, Aug. 1—Automotive gineers have become interested in a new type of engine that is said to produce doubte the power transmit- |ted to it by the pressure of the ex- ploding gas on the piston. It is called a Powell leverage en- gine because it adopts the principle of the lever between the piston and the crankshaft. This engine, according to its mak- ers here, is so designed, through use of the leverage principle, that the piston stroke is double that of the crankshaft stroke, In ordinary mo- tors the piston stroke, heing directly connected to the crankshaft, is the same ay the stroke on the shaft. The lever is about half-way be- tween the piston and the crankshaft. Its fulerum at one end is bolted to the side of the cylind the other end is connected to the bottom of the piston rod, while at its center in | the upper end of the connecting rod. Doubles Stroke of Iiston As a result of this arrangement, the piston can take double the stroke, and therefore douhle the speed, it ordinarily would take for the same power transmitted to the crankshaft in the existing motors. The designers of this motor claim several advantages to the long stroke, double speed motors, among them being flexibility, greater tur- bulence due to the need of a smaller combustion chamber, greater econo- my in use of fuel, high thermal ef- ficlency, high compression and greater durability. “While high piston speed in- creases the economy and flexibility of any engine,” Ay the Powell mo- tor designer * feature in a con- ventional engine shortens its period of usefulness through strain which cannot be aveided hecause the rest of the engine must travel at a speed corresponding to that of the piston. In a Powell leverage engine, the ef- fect of this piston speed is not more rapid motien of other parts, but more power from the same amount of fuel.” The lever, it is added, is sim- itar to a reduction gear in that it reduces a high piston speed into a slow r. p. m. of the crankshaft, with the resultant difficulties and weight of a reduction gear. Claim Superior Features The designers stress especially the long stroke, small bore ‘and #maller combustion chamber, all of which they say combine to produce high compression, greater power, a faster and mgre powerful enginc and all at less fuel cost, Only the lever equipment is dif- ferent from the conventional motor in design. This has been made ac- cessible by providing a plate at the side of the motor, the removal of which opens up the insides for in- spection or repair. The engine designed for passenger car service is made |n six or straight eight models, with 2% -inch bore, 6- inch piston stroke and 3-inch erank- | shaft stroke. There 18 a six-cylinder bus engine, with 313-ipch bore, 6-inch stroke and 3-inch crankshaft stroke. is said to develop 85 horsepower at 1900 revolutions a minute. It weighs with all accessories, only 900 pounds. In addition to these, a truck design has four cylinders, of 3-inch hore, 8-inch piston stroke and 4-inch crankshaft strokc.
