I]flINGS IN THE AUTO WORLD Plans Well UnderWay for a National Circuit of Automobile Races—Storage Batteries Require More Attention in Winter Months—French Government Has Ordered More - American Made Auto Truch—&xgguhom in Gasoline Economy. Pians for the great National Circu of automobile contests are well under way, this movement having been made a practical necesdity owing to the most remarkable growth of automo- bile competition. The ever increasing Mst of speedways to be constructed, and for many of which ground has al- ready been purchased and capital se- cured, and some of which are already constructed and being successfully operated, has made it advisable to gather ‘all events of the year into a group and apportion the dates as near- 1y as possible consecutively so as to save traveling expenses and the wear and tear of traveling to the drivers, their mechanics and to the officials of the American Automobile Association who regularly act at these events. The | condition which 1s rapidly arising in the automobile world is not dissimilar to:the condition which existed when in 1894 ihe League of American Wheel men formed the National Cycle Rac- ing Circuit and by doing so cut the traveling of the riders of bicycl thousands of miles and cut the e: penses quite in two through an in- telligent arrangement of dates for race meets. The National Circuit of cycle racing was_a feature in American competition for vears and a circuit of automobile race meets would be quite as much a feature. “With the coming of the cold weath- or the sto battery used in_ con- nection with the starting and light- ing systems may require a little extra attention.” “A cold motor requires much cranking and consequently much current is used. The effect of cold on a storage battery is to make it slug- gish. A hydrometer should be used frequently to see that the battery is not- being discharged to too low a de- gree. “A. storage Dattery will gradually Become discharged when _standing idle even when no current is being used, due to the fact that a slow chem- ical action is taking place at all times within . the battery regardless of whether ‘the current is being used or not. - When a car is not to be used for as long as two.or three weeks, or the care is to be stored, the battery should receive a complete charge before al- lowing the battery to stand, and it should receive additional charging at least every two or three weeks, until the cells begin to-gas or bubble free- ly. This charging is best done by al- lowing the battery to remain in the car witliout disturbing any of the connections, by allowing the engine to run at-the same speed as is attained when the car is traveling at about twenty miles per hour. ;I order to avold freesing of the battery, it should always be kept in a fully charged condition. A - fully Chargod battery will not freeze at any of the temperatures ordinprily ex- peffeniced. The electrolyte, or solu- tion, ‘will ‘freeze as follows: Spécific gravity 1120, battery dis- charged, 20 degrees above zero. Specific grayity 1160, battery 3-4 discharged, zero. gravity 1210, discharged, 20 degrees below zero.

In fact, it is a good thing to do, especially when in hot weather the animal, if over- driven, is likely to pay the penalty in impaired condition, or perhaps a col- lapse. Moreover, when a horse is|age resting, it is wasting the time of a wagon that cost only & few hundred dollars. But truck time is truly money. Presuming that the vehicle repre- sented an original first cost of $3,000, add to that insurance interest on the investment, depreciation, garage charges, wages of the driver and oth- er fixed charges that g0 on just the same, whether the vehicle Tuns or stands, and it will be seen that it is a wastful policy not to so handle the delivery system that the loafing time of the machine is reduced to a mini- mum. Big users of motor trucks give the closest attention to keeping the truck moving all the time. Often they work it night and day, a_policy not especially harmful, providing the ve- hicle is constantly kept under inspec- tion and is never permitted to iack needed repairs or adjustments. “Economicai ‘of on with a cylinder car or in fact any car, may be said to be attained when about 14 miles on one gallon of gasoline is the average over a fairly long period in the use of that car.” “Gasoline economy - is but one of the many economies that can and should be worked for on a car. It is possible but very seldom obtained by the av- erage man, no matter what car he owns. This merely indicates that he has not the knowledge of the different things that go to make up economical use of gasoline. * “In general, if one w rstood the combustion of fuel in th# cylinder, he would have all that is necessary understand economical operation. He should know that a certain amount of fuel, and this will practically in every case be gasoline, requires air with it in order to have it burn and thus produce power. It is necesary that it =hould have the correct amount of air, although a little excess of air does very little harm. It is necessary in order to have economical operation that each cylinder have a correct mix- ture, and this problem is one of dis- tribution. If a perfect mixture were made in the carburetor, distribution would be easy, but in’general today it is a mechanical mixture of gasoline and air, and the correct distribution of { this is not easy. - ‘Ignition is another feature of Hne economy, and ignition lhmfld al- ways be at a point would give maximum power. ‘How a man should drive is import- ant.

In the winter time the valve may be opened up to twice its regular opening in or- der to get good operation when ev- erything is cold. It is very likely that if the needle valve is not closed down and the motor warms up, from two 1o three times as much gasoline is used as is necessary.( Another big source of gasoline loss is’in emall Jeaks. Very frequently the gasoline vaive or some of the unions | inasmuch as this drop is going on for 4 hours a day, it amounts to a great deal. For this reason all such places should be examined at regular inter- vals_to note their condition. “Naturally the carburetor has a good deal to do with the gasoline consumption, - but with, a standard carburetor there is not a great deal of difference in its use of oline. But ere are quite a few things about a carbiretor that can produce econom- ical operation, such as leaks in the float or air leaks around the carbure- tor, and for that reasonm it is very de- sirable to give this part enough at- tention to know . that it is clean and in_good operating conditlon. “Touring in the country gives the best pollih]e chance lor ‘economical operation, as it allows the motor to be used at a more economical point in its power. At the same time, driv- ing at high ¥peed in the country does Dot _give economical operation as far as' gasoline is concerned, because the ‘wind resistance increases eo fast that the amount of gasoline used in cov- ering any particular mileage Is very much gmner than if that same mile- covered at a slower speed.

The shouting and the clamor of an- other football season is silenced and In an autumn flled with surprises, sappointments, reversals, and thrills e gridiron game, the final contest G e, Semmam it the Polo grounds be- tween Washington and Jefferson. and Rutgers, played before a crowd of only 5,000, was productive of more real football and showed he great possi- bilities of the open game perhaps bet- ter than any contest played in the east this year. These two thoroughly coached elev- ens, one schooled by Foster Sanford of Yale and the other by Bob Folwell of Pennsylvania, made an evenly bal- anced combination which resuited in football of the highest type. . These teams knew all about the rudiments of the game and, besides thai, they were perfected in the difficult, intricate plays which- teams must perfect to score under the present rules. Football has reached that point where it requires much Shmoares “to make the most of the many undevelop- ed means of advancing the ball. The working out of new plays, new forma- ingenious means of attack have ‘been negiected by football coach- es for several seasons because they have relied on the old ways of the game without making the most of the greater possibilities which the rule- makers have given them.
