ee October 9, 1926 WINNETKA TALK Packard Motors Win Air, Land, Water Races The U. S. navy's first line of de- fense in the air has been greatly strengthened and soon will be the best in the world. Greater speed in the medium through which the country has been given this added protection and the automobile industry has been largely responsible for this increased speed. America now has a combat plane which is more than 50 miles an hour faster than the fastest plane used in the world war and some 15 miles an hour faster than the standard pursuit ships now in general use by the Army and Navy which compare favorably with the fighting planes of the rest of the world. Through a combination of a new plane made by the Boeing Airplane company of Seattle, Washington, and the most powerful engine for its pounds in the world made by the Packard Motor car company, the navy has obtained a standard aerial fighter which at the recent airplane races in Philadelphia set up a new world's rec- ord for such ships over a closed course of 180.495 miles an hour. It took first place easily against more than a dozen of the fastest standard pursuit ma- chines of the United States. The Packard-Boeing victory at Philadelphia came as a climax to a series of dramatic demonstrations of Packard engines. First, just a few weeks ago, the Improved Packard car with its greatly increased power was introduced to the public. Shortly af- terwards Packard engines made clean sweeps of the great international mo- tor boat racing classics, the Gold Cup and Sweepstakes contest. Packard air- plane engines completed the cycle for claims to air, land and water suprem- acy.

Farmers Marketing Co. Box 432 Mount Vernon, Iowa Or THE night of the Dempsey-Tunney fight in Philadelphia, the Milwaukee Sentinel was up against the problem of getting fight pictures to Milwaukee in time for early morning editions. Milwaukee has no instrument for receiving tele- graphed pictures, so the pictures had to be pro- cured in Chicago and transported to Milwaukee in the quickest possible time. The chartering of an aeroplane from Chicago to Milwaukee was tirst considered, then abandoned because of the time that would be lost between the business sections and outlying aeroplane fields in both cities. Negotiations were next opened with the automobile racing driver holding the Mil- hy th the 1. A fast train every hour. 2.

Then the Sentinel got in touch with the North Shore Line. They quickly satisfied themselves that this electrically-operated railroad offered the fastest service and most dependable. A Sentinel representative was rushed to Chicago. The moment the pictures were ready, he hurried to the station and boarded a speedy North Shore Line Limited train. Milwaukee fight fans were astonished to see the fight pictures so shortly after the battle had ended. Few of them, perhaps, realized the part which North Shore Line service had played. 1€asons e experienced fraveler prefers NOTE: Seven Milwaukee-bound * trains operate each day via the Shore Line Route, stopping here for passengers.
