.ELMORE WINS HILL
RACE AT COAl|NGA
A. j. Smith Receives Word That
Several Other Cars Failed to
Reach Finish Line

A. J. Smith, coast agent for the Ell
more cars. has received a most interest
ing letter from c. w. Hobson, the Ell
more agent at Fresno. Hobson says
that on the Sd of the month there
was an interesting hill climb al Coalin-
ga. the hill selected for the event being
the one which leads to Marian oil wells.
This hill was supposed to be too
steep for an automobile to climb. Six
cars entered the event. which was won
by the Elmore on it's third attempt.
One other car reached the top on its
twelfth attempt Two cars of 40 horse
power, one of 80 horsepower and one
six cylinder car failed completely.
d. J. Bostauchury of Fullerton. agent
for the Elmore cars in Orange, San
Diego and Riverside counties, has been
in the city trying to get more cars
from Smith. He has sold his allotment
of % cars and tried to get Smith to
give him more. Bostauehury has al
ready returned $4,000 of deposit money

OAKS SHORTSTOP
SENDS CONTRACT
Hard Hitting Clyde Wares to
Be Seen on Commuters In
field Coming Season

Clyde Wares, the speedy, hard hit
ting young shortstop whom Oakland
secured from the reserve list of the
Philadelphia Americans, has sent in
his contract to President Walter
Wares writes that he is ready to
answer the call for training at any
minute. He is wintering in kalamazoo,
Mich
Wares played with the GAINESVILLE
club of the Central league for the past
two seasons and was looked upon as
the best shortstop in the organiza-
ton. He batted above the 800 mark
and proved a heady base runner and
an all around valuable man. Last sea-
son he was drafted by Connie Mack
of Philadelphia. Mack has a whole
flock of promising men on his staff
and in tins way Oakland mana ged TO
work a deal whereby Mack turned
Wares over.
Wares and Lloyd, whom Oakland
has signed up as an infielder, worked
together on the GAINESVILLE club and
became famous for the fast double
plays which they used to pun off. Wares
writes that he hopes Lloyd viii be
kept on second as it will help his
own work out a lot.
There is a question in the minds of
the place. Opposed to him is little
Cutshaw, who played such fast game
a second for Oakland during the lat
ter part of last season.
Tommy Tonneson, the Oakland south
paw, is still down in the Imperial VAL
ley league, where he has been pitching
all winter. In a letter to his boss,
Tonneson says that he recently out
pitched Scott of the White Sox in two
games, ! to 0 affair and to /
mixup.
Pitcher Harkins, who was with Yer
non for while last year will be given
a tryout by the Oaks this time. Har-
kins is a likely youngster and has a
good chance to make the team.
Oakland's pitching staff to date in
cludes the following well known per-
formers: Tonneson, Nelson, Christian.
Dank Mooser, French and Harlxins.
Walter denies that he has been trying
to sign Duggleby, the old time Phila-
delphia box artist

ADVERTISING VALUE
SHOWN BY RESULTS
Auto Manufacturers Pleased
With Newspapers as
Medium

The firm Of Thomas B. Jeffery & Co.
maker of the New Rambler automobile
has paid an unusual tribute to news
paper advertising in devising its sales
plans for the coming year.
1t was formerly the custom Of auto
mobile manufacturers to devote the
greater portion of their advertising ap-
propriations to the purchase of space
in what were known as the standard
magazines, the weeklies and the trade
publications.
During the1ast two years the Jeff
cry company has, through cooperation
with dealers, carried advertising in ap-
proximately 300 daily and weekly
newspapers throughout the United
States.
Credit. is partly given 10 these daily
and weekly newspapers for the large
increase in the sales of the new Ramb-
Ter during this period.
The sales record for this year to date
shows sales in excess of three times
the gross amount one year ago, while
the sales at that time were twice as
great as during the year previous.

new MOTOR WAGON
ENTERS THE FIELD
Chase Make of Vehicle Is Placed
on the Local Market by
William II. Dnrphy

The Chase motor wagons are the
latest to enter the local market. Will
liam H. Durphy, former sales manager
of the company, has opened the agency
for himself. He is Offering the cars
with a most liberal guarantee as to
Service. which undoubtedly must at
tract the businessman who wants to
be up to date and save money on his
delivery service. Durphy has received
a letter from A. NJ Crane, president of
the Chase motor truck company, adj
vising him that they have closed a
deal with Leyland Motors, Ltd, of Lon
don. England, for 1900 Chase wagons,
to be taken in five years as follows:
/ 30 the first year, $50 the second year
and 800 per year thereafter.
Durphy says:
1.-The Leyland Motors, Ltd, is the
largest manufacturer of heavy trucks
in all Europe. They have numerous
calls for a light delivery wagon, and
were anxious to secure one that would
meet the conditions of their trade.
They sent two of their mechanical eX-
perts to every factory in Europe and
America. manufacturing these vehicles,
to make a thorough investigation and
report which in their opinien was the
best constructed to establish the most
economical operator.
One day two Englishmen appeared
at Syracuse. Without stating who they
were, they asked to see our factory
and go through our plant. We showed
them the usual courtesy, received their
thanks and they departed. About three
days later we received a letter from
our New York manager asking for
list of our users, and stating that it
was for an Englishman, who called
with a view to purchasing wagons, but
would not leave his name. We fur
nished the list of customers on our
books. Thirty days later we received
letters from the Ley1and Motors, Ltd,
asking us for the exclusive agency for
the British isles and offering to take
1900 wagons in five years, if we would
give them the exclusive contract. The
only stipulation we made in reply was
that they take one-fourth of the allot-
ment every three months. This was
agreed upon and the contract was
closed. Deposits were paid and the
first order shipped
