Added distinction has been given the
Frank A. Munsey reliability contest by
reason OF the fact that it will be run
under the 1910 rules that have just
been adopted by the American Auto
mobile Association, and which were re-
leased today. They will be used for the
FIRST time in this contest
striking feature Of these new rules
is the fixed penalization schedule. which
Is considered by all authorities the fair
est and most eauits bic method Of plac-
ing fines, az the penalties to be i'm
posed for any defects in the competing
cars are set forth IN detail. Every pos
sible contingency has been cared for
in the new rules, and they are without
doubt the most comprehensive Tegula-
tions ever drawn for any automobile
event, and they reflect the greatest
credit upon the master minds that COM
piled them.
There has been a constant demand
from automobile manufsc, Irers. deal
ers. and private owners all over the
country for a fixed penalization code
for reliability contests, and the an
nouncement that this system win he
used in the Munsey tour viii prove
welcome news, not only to those who
have entered cars in this event. but
10 the entire automobile world.
