MADE 89 MILES AN HOUR Motor Was Manager's Car for the Race. Taken From Branch The Haynes "light twelve," which set the new amateur record for 100 miles at the Chicago auto derby Sat- urday, June 16, and made a new non- stop record, had under its hood the engine which H. E. Doty, Chicago branch manager for the Haynes, has been using in his pleasure car the past winter. Mr. Doty never expected his en- gine to win such signal fame. It has the regular stock valves and stock displacement. He had driven it over 3,000 miles for personal pleasure. Not having time, prior to the race, to limber up the engine sent from the factory, it was at the last moment decided to use Mr. Doty's stock en- gine instead. A Hard Won Victory. : Percy Ford, Jr., an amateur driver and salesman at the Chicago branch, lined up against an array of special $4,000 racing cars. Fender against fender the Haynes light twelve and another contestant battled for near- ly forty of the two-mile rounds each fiercely fighting for leadership and averaging ninety miles per hour. Thereafter the lead was securely in the grasp of the Haynes. one stop for adjustment or tires, the Haynes completed the century at an average of eighty-nine miles per \_____ hour, the new record for amateurs. Ford says he always had plenty of power in reserve and that if he had been pushed harder he would have maintained an even greater speed. Despite this- terrific tax upon his engine, following the capture of the trophy cup offered to the winner, Ford found his Without | twelve-cylinder | power plant in even better shape | than before the race and drove home in his racer. A "Quarter Century" Engine. That a stock twelve-cylinder en- gine could be taken from a pleasure car, hurriedly fitted into a racing chassis and emerge triumphant from a hotly contested 100-mile race with- out even a suggestion of mechanical / trouble during the grind or after- ward speaks well for the engines which the Haynes people build. The Haynes engines have always been built by the Haynes factory and the twelve thus results from approx- imately a quarter century of engine manufacturing success. Ford, the same driver, a year ago attained a seventy-two mile per hour gait in a Haynes light six on the same speedway. A special gear ratio was used. | ="R.-B. 0% | RUBBER COMPOUNDER IS RIVAL OF BREADMAKERS "The compounding of rubber is a good deal like mixing dough for bread," according to President Feist of the National Rubber Company. "It is surprising what different results people can get from the same in- gredients. One breadmaker will get a delicious, light, flaky, crusty loaf, while another will get a heavy, soggy, close-grained bread. One is so good! you can't get enough of it, while the other is scarcely fit to eat. It is so with tire rubber. One man will compound a rubber that will wear like iron, another a rubber that has no- wearing ability at all." Accord- ingly the company secured James E. Murray for its compounder on speed- way tires, a man of vast experience, and who was given absolute freedom in manufacturing. He changed every- thing, at big expense, to get results, and, as Mr. Feist said, the company decided that sooner than sacrifice any of the quality Mr. Murray was putting into them, it would open its own factory branch stores and by eliminating the profits and selling costs of the middlemen, it could sell them at the average list price or even a little less.

Both European and American engi- neers worked on the problem of eliminating the horse entirely from the work of dragging such guns to the front for years before the out- break of the great war. Successful experiments by the government now seem to promise an early substitu- tion of the machine for the horse in handling nearly all forms of ord- nance. ' Experiments were first made with various types of tractors under the direction of the field artillery board at Fort Sill, Oklahoma, and by the ordnance department of the army at the Rock Island - arsenal, followed later at Fort Bliss, Texas, with a completely equipped battery. The tractor standards committee of the Society of Automobile Engineers has been actively co-operating study of the problem since the out- break of the war. The large howitzer types are sure to be motored, according to Major Lucian B. Moody, who has been in charge of the work. The French 75s and other light types will have to wait for the development of trac- tors capable of developing a combi- nation of speed for emergencies and pulling power in mud equal to that of horses. European armies have reduced greatly the number of horses in artil- lery use. It has not proved possible to eliminate them in hauling certain in the | of the smaller and medium types of | ordnance because. of the lack of proper tractor combination of speed and power. > EE EE he .

The yonng man went to France a short time ago to drive an ambulance, but having al- ways been extremely interested in aviation, soon.took up training for the air squadron at Buc. At first he took part in operations in the Vos- ges, and was engaged in piloting a machine for photographic work. Since then, however, he has been transferred - to the Lafayette esca- drille. The following is an account of one of his trips, taken from a recent letter to his family: "The captain asked me if I wanted to see the lines today, and so I took my "Bebe" and went with two others in monoplane fighting planes and a Caudron which was taking pictures. The three Nieuports were the guards of the Caudron. We went two kilo- meters into Germany near at about 1,600 meters, and they shelled us all the way. They are wonder- ful shots and I was scared until I saw how calmly the others took it. I find the training I have had gives me great advantage, as I had the machines always under control, even though it was necessary to dodge like a jacksnipe to keep them from getting the range. It was my first and last experience at that height over the lines, as I will work at from 4,000 to 6,000 meters, where they can't shell me." One Less Toll Road.

The manner in which 10,000,000 wo- men of the United States are to be enrolled to help win the war was ex- plained by Dr. R. L.. Wilbur, head of the food conservation department of the temporary food administration. Women who desire to "do their bit" will be enrolled for war service the same as men. They will receive an official insignia of their branch of the service. They will be told ex- actly what is to be required of them. They will not be expected to stir from their homes to do their part in helping to win the war, but the part they play will be as vital as that of the soldiers in the trenches of France. Beginning next Sunday, which is to be food conservation Sunday all over the United States, an active campaign will be undertaken to enlist women for conservation work. Forms and suggestions have been sent to every woman who enrolls for the work, telling exactly what is to be expected in the way of conservation of food. L=R_-8 0} "Ware the Garageman.
