The most usual cause for knocking in
an engine is loose bearings or an unlu-
br1cated piston, but there are times when
the cause of this annoying trouble can be
found elsewhere. A twisted crank shaft
is one of the usual causes of knock. An
other is a deposit of carbon ON the pis-
ton top and walls of the compression
chamber Clean this all off, and it is
probable that the knock will disappear.
In the case of such unaccountable de-
velopment 1t is easier to begin by clearing

mishaps on the race course to inexperi-

will be made to the Manufacturers Con-
test Association and it's committee on
rules to limit the field of starters in
speedway contests.

CALLING

Is 1t a girls place to invite her

may call? BOB.
This question is much discussed
by young people. 1t is convention
al for any girl who has accepted
one or more invitations from a
man to return the courtesy by in
viting the man to call. But she is
pot supposed to extend such an
invitation to man who has not
manifested an interest in her, nc
matter how much she may be In
lterested in him.
1t is also permissible for a man
to ask permission to call, and it Ii
often necessary for him to do sc

are not posted in the convention
or are too shy to take advantage
of 1t. In circles where the chap
