ON F0RD'S LIST
Suit for Infringement Has Been
Started in the United States Court
and Big Battle Is On.

In the United States circuit court.
through patent attorneys, Bartnet
Bartkel, Henry Ford has instituted
Co. for infringement. This is the first
OF series OF suits to be instituted to
protect the well-known Ford system
OF final drive. covered by United
States letters patent No 747909. Brief
ly described this patent is as follows:
An enclosed transmission casing
In which is joined a hollow for
ward reach tube enclosing the
drive shaft. The drive shaft is
connected TO the engine shaft by
means OF a single universal joint.
Co-incident with this universal
joint is the ball joint which con-
meets the aforementioned forward
reach with the frame. This pecu-
liar drive removes from the frame
all shock or torsion due 10 irreg-
ularities in the road.
The patent Is regarded basic one,
It's claims are broad and alleged in
are numerous. 1t Is the
only system so far devised that per-
mits one wheel To pass over bump
or obstruction in the road without dis
torting the frame or transmitting the
Jar to the body. With this device the
car body remains horizontal though
the wheel base may be detected 10 or
Is per cent The twist or jar is all alb
sorbed in the ball joint.
There promises to be an exception
ally interesting fight to secure the en-
forcement OF the rights covered by
this patent. for the present suit Is
simply the first of many to be filed and
prosecuted.
1t is also interesting from the fact
hat the Ford Motor Co.. whose entire
history has been wrapped up In IN

ing for site in Chicago, Suitable
MI for a Park

CHICAGO May 21.-Is the Ameri-
can association again preparing TO
wage war on the major leagues?
Some foundation for this belief was
furnished when IL became known to-
day that Charles Havenor, owner OF
the Milwaukee team. is negotiating
with property owners here for the
purchase - an eight-acre tract on the
north side suitable for baseball
park. The Evangelical Lutheran
church which owns the property. has
notified Havenor that he can buy the
tract for 100000.
Under the present agreement the
American association is bound not to
invade Chicago without the consent OF
the American and National League
clubs.
