DOEG IS NEWEST B TENNIS CHAMPION Californian Wins Spectacular Duel From Frank Shields I" New York, Sept. 15 (P—A year-old Californian, John Hope| Doeg, sat on top of the tennis heapi today while experts spent their spare time predicting a wholesale shitt in this country's ranking list. | Doeg won the National Singles title in a spectacular duel with Frank Shields, 19-year-old Yorker, on Saturday and thus b came the voungest player to cap- tyre the crown since Billy Johnston ftst reached the heights in 1915, But more to the point, where the question of a new ranking list is involved, is the fact that Doeg, in his march to the finals, eliminated Big Bill Tilden, for ten straight years this countr No. 1 player, | | and Francis T. Hunter, who has been rated just behind Big Bill for some years. On the basis of 1830 perform-| ances, there is a strong possibility that at least three younsters Shields, Sidney B. Wood of New York, and Ellsworth Vines of Pasa-| dena, Calif, may crash their way into the “first ten.” Whether Tilden will lose his place at the top of the| list to Doeg is a moot point for the | tall Philadeiphian plaved marvelous | tennis in Europe this season. Hun-| ter, however, is virtually certain to be dropped several pegs from the No. 2 spot he now occupies. Doeg. ranked No. 3 last year, hardly can be denjed a higher place. George Lott, present No. 4. has ‘ little this year and may take a tumble. The Texans, Wilmer Allison and Berkeley Bell, may be ranked high- er than the No. 7 and No. 9 posi- tions they now hold for both have played spectacularly this spason4l John Van Ryn is the present No. 51 Fritz Mercur. declared ineligible for amateur competition on Satur-| day, is No. 6; Wilmer F.

CARNERA HEADS PROGRAM Battle Between Italian Giant and Jack Gross of Philadelphia Heads Boxing Features. New York, Sept. 15 (A—Boxing fans have nothing more exciting to look forward to this week than an- other appearance by Primo Carnera, Italy's Ambling Alp, who takes on Jack Gross, of Philadelphia, in a ten rounder at the Chicago stadium Wednesday night. Gross rates a notch or two above the usual run ot Carnera's opponents, but there is little chance of his interrupting the Itahan behemoth’s string of suc- cesses.

That is a thing of the past now, but heads are still taken now; and then for revenge and love. WHITE ARMY HEAD PLOTS SOVIET END Former Crarist General Waits| for Reds to Weaken Paris, Sept. 15 ((P—When General | Alexandre Koutiepoff disappeared mysteriously from the street near his home on January 18, 1930, remnants NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 1930. Developments in Auatomobile Field as Described by Agents New Packard Eight Now Being Displayed Representative models of the new series Packard Eights, just an- nounced, have already been placed on view in Packard showrooms throughout the country. An inspec- tion of those displayed by Honey- man Auto Sales Co., 200 East Main street, local Packard dealers, shows |that their new cars comprise more | notable improvements than any Packards of recent vyears. The popular Standard Eight five-passen- ger sedan is offered at a price sub- stantially lower than that at which |the previous model was introduced. | While retaining the characteristic Packard appearance and the straight eight motor, the new models include many added refine- ments. Notable among the improvements segn in this latest series of Pack- ards is a substantial increase of the power in the motors, giving from 10 to 15 additional horsepower, de- pending upon wheelbase. All the advantages in traffic obtainable in a four-speed transmission are again to be had with the quick change hetween gears found in the Packard transmission. Smoothness, as well as increased power, is a characteristic of the new | motors, due to the use of a new type | vibration damper. Increase in power of the new cars was obtained with a new system of intake and ‘exhaust manifolding that is, however, un- changed in size, simplicity and economy. Mechanical improvements have not exceeded body refinements, and there is a complete new lime of col- or combinations, scientifically se- lected for perfect harmony and good taste. The new Packard De Luxeline of eleven body types, cond solidating the former custom and De Luxe models, is offered at ap- proximately $1,000 less than the price of the former De Luxe cars, in spite of a variety of improve- ments. Studebaker Fifth In Car Registration Total July registrations of new |automobiles in the 37 states which | have so far reported show Stude- baker in fifth place among all makes, according to E. J. Albro Studebaker dealer here. In many territories Studebaker outsold all makes except Ford and Chevrolet. Commenting on the success of tbe new free wheeling models, Mr. Al- bro said, “Returns from widely sep- that the new Presidents and Com- manders have not only captured the interest and enthusiagsm of motor- ists, but many new owners as well. “It is also significant that Stude- baker's gain in the fine car field was particularly marked in states ©of large total registrations.

While it was generally supposed that Koutlepoff had met with the machinations of Soviet secret police, General Miller did not hesitate open- ly to declare himself ready to as- sume his former master's position as commander of the Russian “White army.” Since then, his life has been in the hands of two mén—his single staff ducts which have sprung up in| many sections.

His head- |quarters are in Paris and everything he does, he assumes is known to the secret police as were the actions of General Koutiepoff.

Even though this “army" is not an -army, General Miller considers that he is still in the service of the czar and that his military career has never been interrupted. ‘World Organization The “army” of which General | neis, for example, Studebaker climb- | a¢ from tweltth place in total sales for the first six months to third pace for July, being topped only by Ford and Chevrolet. “In Connecticut, Studebaker forged from eighth place for the first halt of the year to fifth place in July.” 1,500 Buick Salegmen Awarded Gold Emblems More than- 1,500 Buick salesmen throughout the United States are being awarded gold emblem buttons by C. W, Churchill, general sales manager of the Buick Motor com- pany, in recognition of their achievement, in becoming members of the Buick Master Salesmen’s club. This club, founded a little over a year ago, is open only to those Buick salesmen who, through ob- taining the required volume of sales, become eligible. In presenting the emblems to the Buick Master Salesmen, Mr. Church- ill in a letter to each said in part, “The Buick Motor company feels CHRYSLER MOTORS keenly the service rendered Buick dealers and the factory by retail salesmen, and to the Master Sales- men in particular, we arefeeply in- | debted for the volume of business | they contribute. It is our belief that | it requires much study, practice, and | intelligent acumen to become pro- ficient in the field of salesmanship.” Plymouth Third for | 2nd Consecutive Month Registration figures from all states show Plymouth in third place i1 the automobile industry national- ly for the second consecutive month; according to a statement authorized today by F. L. Rockelman, president and general manager of Plymouth Motor corporation. » This compares with Plymouth’s rank of ninth place in the industry in July, 1929. It improved its posi- tion steadily going into fourth place in May of this year. Even at that time such important states as Mich- igan, Ohio, Indiana, Missouri, Ne- braska, Jowa, Arkansas, Minnesota and Kentucky gave it third place. |Nash to Announce : New Models in October The Nash Motors Company will make an important announcement of a new line of motor cars in Oc- tober. For some time past, the in- dustry and the trade have been looking -for some such ¢ pronounce- ment by Nash. This interest is es- pecially strong because of the repu- tation of the Nash organjzation for meeting merchaadising conditions, in a most masterful way. While details are lacking, the re- ports current have reference to a) new low-priced eight by Nash and the probability that this car will be the lowest priced eight in the world. Besides this car, it {s said that there will be two other eights, one in the moderate priced field and one selling at a mediunt price. Chevrolet Economy Driving Contest Winners The economy driving contest of | the Patterson Chevrolet, local Chev- | rolet dealers which began August 20 ended last Thursday.. Ovdr three hundred New Britain men and wo- men contested .for the three prizes which were_$50 for the one driving the farthest on a pint of gasoline. | The second prize was for $35, while the third was $15. E. Seaberg of Kensington won the first prize of $50 for driving |31 8-10 miles per gallon. Second prize was won by Salvatore Bal- lachino of 112 Lafayette street, for driving 31 2-10 miles per gallon | and the third prize of $15 was won | | by Charles Smith * of 865 Stanley | street, for driving 30 8-10 miles per | gallon. | “The important part of the con- test, said Mr. Patterson, in making the announcement of the winners, is the average miles per gallon * of 26 4-10. This is a remarkable econ- | omy feat considering that only a | pint was used by each contestant | which necessitated making eight | starts on a gallon. Inasmuch as each | contestant represents the usual | driver his average of 26 4-10 per | galon gives a very clear idea of ;how economical a Chevrolet is té jown. The route over which the | economy car was driven was the | same for each contestant. Starting |at 18 Main street the uptown show- |room of Patterson :Chevrolet, the car passed through Franklin Square to Bassett street to Trinity street to South Main street and on to Ber- lin until the gasoline was exhausted.

Man Asleep in Auto, Policeman Takes Key Officer John Smigel found a man intoxicated and asleep in an automo- bile in front of 12 Maple street at 1:20 o'clock yesterday morning and aroused him for questioning. An- other man came out of the house and assured the officer he would take the man to his home. The offi- cer took the automobile keys and operator's license away so that there would be no attempt to drive the car, and later they were returned to the owner. BATTERY TAKEN FROM AUTO John Frank of 483 North Colony street, Wailingtord, came to New Britain on Saturday evening to visit some friends. He parked his car on Myrtle street and when he tried to start the car, could not do so. Some- body had taken the battery from the car. The police added the bat- tery to the long lst of goods stolen from parked cars recently. On Sunday evening, almost on the exact time, 9:10 p. m. as the battery was taken on the evening before, Frank Diandella of 94 Franklin square, returned to his parked car in front of 380 Main street and found that two blankets had been stolen. This was reported to the police.
