PLAN FOR BIC
R|vERHEAD RACE
IN EARLY FALL
DisbrOw and WhaIen Drive Over
Course and Find 1t Very
Fast.

Much interest is being shown in the
proposed Riverhead. l.. l., road race, to
be held early in September. Last week
Louis Disbrow and Neil Whalen made a
trip to R~iverhead and found the town
highly enthusiastic over the project.
At present there is a sixteen-mile
course in the most excellent shape and
At for record breaking. However, if
the race takes place the local authori-
ties and property holders have agreed
to round off the corners and to widen
a narrow stretch of the course. Most
of the road Is already oiled. Disbrow
Is confident that on the proposed cir
cult the American road record can be
broken. Aside from Santa Monica.
Cal, this probably is the only course
in the country where the record can be
clipped.
In addition to the $1,000 cup offered
for this race by Mr.. and Mrs. Andrew
Cuneo, prizes are being offered from
other sources to attract a field of the
fastest pilots. Fred F.. M~oskovics, sales
manager of the Remy Electric Com
pany, noun this week that a
Remy prize of 81, 900 in gold would be
offered to the driver breaking the
American road record and also a prize
of $500 for the winner in case the rec
ord should not be broken.
William Fallon, who planned and
executed the Port Jefferson hill-climb
last season, is one of the sponsors of
the Riverhead road race project and
promises a substantial prize from a
well-known interest, either in cash or
a trophy. Negotiations are pending to
secure a sanction for this race
and steps are also being taken to
secure militia to patrol the course.
George e. Darling and other proml-
nent citizens of Port jefferson who
helped manage the hill-climb there are
active, also, in the o race project.

j. D. M ON MAS TRUCK

In an interview today James d. Lam
bic, of the New Jersey Overland Com
pany, in reply to a question in refer
ence to gear-driven commercial trucks,
stated the following reasons. why the
Mais truck used the Internal gear
drive: -
s"Since the announcement that the
MATS motor truck is the first made in
America to use the Internal gear drive.
there has been a great deal of interest
manifested among both the trade peo-
pie and the laymen. Many persons
have asked me why we do not use
chains.
Briefly, We do not use chains because
we are out of that unsatisfactory ex-
~periInental state. The motor of any
truck works hard-and consumes fuel
all the wilhelm order TO create 100
per cent. of pulling power. This power
does not pull, however, until II gets
back to the rear wheels. When chains
are used to carry this power back they
lose from IL to 80 per cent. Of their
pulling power The Mais internal gear,
however, does not lose more than s per
cent. and the power pulls direct on the
rear wheels. This not only gives more
pulling power, but reduces the up-keep
cost.
"The Internal gear can be properly
enclosed and any range of reduction
may be obtained. Therefore the DIFF
f~erential of the Mails internal gear
drive can be run at a higher speed and
hence at less stress and higher eff
f~iciency than in the case of chain
Jrtxa,, ooro ha1fat,o that o,elaoarz
agree that spur gearing is more eff
f1cient than chains even when the
chains are properly fabricated. Chains
represent a loss of at least u per cent.
of power.
1.-THE internal gear can be properly
enclosed and works in grease, while It
Is difficult to enclose chains. The wear
and tear on chains is necessarily more
thar in the case of the internal gear.
Chains need frequent replacement, and
every time a chain is replaced new
sprockets have to- be installed to obtain
the correct roller action of the chain.
Chains offer less road clearance than
the internal gear. Chains, when dirty
and full of grit and mud, represent n
power loss of as much as 40 and 50
per cent. The side swayinE of cars
cause the chains to constantly get out
of line and therefore help rapid wear.
The stretch of the chain must be taken
care of from time to time by r~eadjust-
ment Of the radius rods. In the case
of the internal gear drive the radius
rod is absolutely fixed, When jack
shaft brakes are used. the breaking OF
a chain, which is liable to happen at
any time, will put the brake out OF
commission. This is impossible with
the internal gear drive.
1.-The latest one to discard chains
after severe tests, to my knowledge. is
tho Benz people"

Because the question has been

expected that many schools through

the members Of the Emery Club to

To Dispense Wrinkles
In q Half n ute
(From Feminine Worldly

Many women in making their toilet
for the theater, dance or any social
affair, battle the face and hands in an
astringent lotion having an immedi-
ate rejuvenating effect. An ounce Of
powdered saxolite dissolved in a half
pint Of witch-hazel, makes an ideal
preparation for this purpose. It Is
wonderfully effective in promptly dis
persing wrinkles and creases, as well
as bagginess of cheeks or chin. En-
larged pores are reduced. the skin ap-
pears softer, and finer-textured, and
one seems to have suddenly lost sew
eral years from her age.
The results being SO remarkable and
coming 50 quickly, and the ingredi-
ents being obtainable at any drug
store, this Is a good formula to remem-
Der. The solution Is entirely harmless.
