BRITISH MODELS GET EXPORT PREFERENCE The Old Country Motor Oygles Are Very Popular Abroad. The success of British motor cycles has undoubtedly been largely influenced by thelr victories in races and trials throughout the world. 1 read in Motor Cycle that among events recently wom by Britiah me- chines are the Fremch grand prix, the Italtan grand prix, the Australien T.T., the French twenty-four-hour road race, and the German solitude road race. In the Austrian T.T., the winning machine was a 3.49 over- head valve B.S.A. similar to that which recently won the three-mile solo championship of Western Aus- tralia. In the Czecho-Slovakian 1,000 kilometer reliability trial, tem BB8.A's were entered and ten fin- nished without Josing a mark, gain- H WHIG -------- . ~y "An Important of Improvements o" List Following a year of unprecedented engineering progress, Dodge, Brothers announce another important list of improvements for their complete line ~ of motor cars.

Villiers engine has lowered its own world's record when the compression is poor, when it pumps oil and uses too much fuel, it is probable that the rings are old and do, mot fit properly. A piston ring is supposed to pack the eylin- der so that the gas does not leak downward and oil upward. In or- der to be an ideal device, it must do this without exerting too much pressure against the cylinder wall, and the pressure must be evenly dis- loose.

TRYING to compare the Chrysler "60" 1 | with an ordinary type of Six is liketrying to compare two totally different things. There can be no comparative measure of value, for instance, between the Chrysler 60", with its sixty-mile-and- more per-hour capacity, and another car ng much less. = Just as sharply defined is the difference in the comfort of these sixty Chrysler miles and the lesser speed and the less easeful speed of the other. : The vital factor which makes greater value in Chrysler "60" has its source in the-one-thing-which-cannot-be- » ; tributed all around., The ring must [than for ue Sie.

A fair example of the sort of thing he may expact from his leading British competitons is to be found in the fact that in the 1925 Edinburgh run six- teem 'Matchless' machines started and obtained fifteen gold medals.
