OF all the advantages which may be catalogued
as being probably in the Defenders favor this may
come out first. IL is undenable TACT that the
Americans do "everlastngly crack II on when
they get the chance, and this has been neces-
s!ty In former years. when great beam required
much showing. When It Is seen. therefore, that the
present Valkyrie is possessed OF all the American
beam. the fact becomes apparent that she must
be driven through in the American way II she
wants to WIN. In the article OF July doubt
was yentured as to whether Cranhed would shove
his American model IN the American way, and tho
doubt still remains.
