PUBLIC HEARING
TO Be GRANTED.
New Traffic Regulations for District
Will Be Discussed Before
the Commissioners.
REQUEST OF BOARD OF TRADE

A public hearing on the new trafiic
regulations which were completed by
Commissioner Johnston early this week
will be granted some time next week
in response to a request to be made to-
day through Board OF Trade channels.
The request for public hearing on the
regulations before their promulgat tion
will be on Commissioned Johnston's
desk when he returns from the South
Monday, and In all probability the re-
quest will be granted immediatel
From present indications the prospects
are bright for new set of regulations
in force before a week from Monday.
The decision to ask for a public hear
ing on the proposed regulations was
reached wednesday following an in
formal discussion between certain off,
GERS and members OF the Board OF
Trade The movement originated in
automobile touring circles, where the
fear is expressed that the new regula-
tions may. not be as nearly identical
with the regulations of New York and
other nearby cities as is desirable.
Uniformity Is Keynote.
Uniformity has been the keynote
sounded by those who have been fore
most in improving traffic regulations
large touring associations whose men,
bers in the course OF their travels are
much hampered by the necessity of
learning new regulations in each NUM-
cipalIty traversed in order to avoid con-
stant annoyances from municipal officers.
As the education OF the driver and
chauffeur is considered the most i'm
portant feature Of any campaign 10 i'm
prove street traffic regulations. IL is con-
sidered vitality important that the path
OF the driver be made as simple as
possible. The same argument applies
with equal force to pedestrians, who by
knowing what the regulations require
Of drivers of vehicles are able TO know
In advance what a vehicle will do in a
given situation.
Among those who will appear at the
traffic regulations hearing are represent
atives of the Board of Trade and the
local branch of the Automobile Asso-
citation OF America.

WAKING UP A TREAT FOR GOLFERS
MCDermott and Mcnamara to
Meet Smith and HobenS.
AMERICA VS.. SCOTLAND
Top Raters to Play in Match
Over Links of Englewood
Country Club.

Seldom have local opponents OF driver
and iron been given an opportunity of
seeing a better golf match than the one
arranged for to-day over the links OF the
Englewood Country Club. Jack McDer-
mott, the doughty homebred who has won
the national open championship two years
in succession. with Tom Mcnamara, an
other native born American. who holds
the metropolitan title. will be pitted
against Alec Smith. Of Wykagkl. and Jack
Hobens OF the home organization.
The fact that II will be a case OF Amer
tea versus Scotland will doubtless lend a
certain amount Of zest TO the occasion.
and there are those who are wondering
II the outcome will be the same as the
one held over Boston way a few seasons
ago, when the Ross brothers, Donald and
Alec, defeated Mcnamara and ". j.
Brady.
Taking past performances for a. cri-
terion. II may be said that McDermott
and Mcnamara have been playing fully
as steadily as the redoubtable Scots In
fact. neither Hobens nor Smith has met
with much competitive success this year,
Smiths best work being in the national
open at Buffalo, where he got third money
with a total OF 299. or i've strokes behind
McDermott.
Although Hobens failed to get going at
Buffalo, the Englewood pro develops
occasional flashes Of old time brIlliancy,
and It may be that he and Alec will ut
like a glove, so TO speak. Conditions call
for thrty-six holes and the members
have subscribed a purse.

they will play in San Francisco. There

TIRE SERVICE IN RACES

The placing OF the only America, -.
in the list OF winners in the grand n-,,.
race this year at Milwaukee was ,ha
suit Of combination of the capabIlI,y q,
the little stutz car and the durability q,
Goodyear tires. A remarkable fact shor,
the tire equipment was that the Good.
year Company did not know at the finn.
the tires We're purchased at the Indian.
apolis branch the purpose for which thew
were TO be used
They were stock tires. and only one.
during the race was it necessary TO naks
a change, while specially built rac,,r
tires held up racers continually because
Of tire trouble. In letter from the
manufacturers OF the Stutz car To tina
Goodyear Company is voiced the sa,,,-
faction of the builders at the work ~
the tires. The letter. in part. follows:
1T may be news to you that In eoutD.
ping the Stutz racing car, which we en-.
tered in the Vanderbilt cup and grand
prize races, We used your stock Good
clncher tires all around, using non.sk,a
on the right rear. The two from, ,,,.,
went through both races without a chang.
and we only changed one left rear
in the Grand Prize, and one right
rear in the Vanderbilt race.

miles in all, of gruelling service over
rough, sharp crushed rock COURSE tn,
front tires are still on the car. and vii, A,
some more racing. We have taken OF
the right rear tire, which went ffty-tvo
laps around the course, having four turns
two OF which were hairpin turns, and ara
preserving this tire. which took the vho,s
amount Of skidding Of the rear OF the car.
This Is a curiosity in our racing-tire exc
perience.
we thought you would be especially
interested In this, as the Goodyear tires
were stock tires, selected by US at ram
dom from our supply, and because they
gave such remarkable service in racing
where our competitors were continually
experiencing tire trouble.
The Stutz was the only American car
which finished In the Grand Prize this
year, finishing in third position and los
ing second place by only 81 seconds aud
averaging 65.55 miles in this race, and we
felt like extending Goodyear our congrst.

TO COMPETE
Three Army Officers Will Ride
at the Horse Show.
CANADIAN ENTRIES STRONG
Mounts from Across the Border
Have Done Fine Work
This Summer.

BY a cable message last week entries
were received Of the Belgian army officers
who will jump In the international con-
tests at the horse show in Madison Square
Garden, beginning on November IS. Three
officers will bring with them four OF the
best horses in the army, and each one
rafting good jumper
Belgium was represented In the horse
show last year and did well. 1t is ex-
pected that the three who are coming this
year will do even better and give repre-
sentatives Of England. Holland, Canada
and this country many hard contest for
the prizes. The Belgian officers will ar
rive here. with their horses, in plenty OF
time to school them we'll before the open
ing Of the show.
Holland will be represented by three Of
fcers and possibly six horses, and Eng
land will send over strong team, but
just how many has not yet been learned.
The Canadian contingent will be the
strongest ever sent here from across the
border, and the Canadians are IN high
feather because Of the performances made
by some OF their crack jumpers, and II
they can repeat in the ring they will win
more than their share of the honors.
Judge William III. Moore will have q
big string of harness horses at the show,
and among the new ones TO be exhibited
will be Bountiful. his latest purchase from
England This mare is wonderfully
attractive animal. She made her first APP
pearaDce In the novice class at the inter
national show. in London, and at the end
OF the show she had won the champion
ship and the prize for the best In the
show. Judge Moore paid a big price for
this mare. which Is hackney bred. and he
hopes to do we'll with her in this country.
Judge Moore will also show a very hand
some four, with which he won the coach
ing Marathon at the Richmond. England,
show.
]. w Hartman will have. as usual,
small. but select, string, headed by his
famous stallion Nala and the mare Lady
Diham. Mr. Hartman has for many
years been trying to find a suitable maze
for Nala. He has tried several. but not
one has been found At TO make a team
mate, but this year he thinks he has been
successful He has purchased Mayner.
the bay stallion by Moko. which was
owned by General Burnett. of Orange
County. Mayner is a wonderfully high
stopper and fine looking horse. Jack
Donolly has been putting him through his
PAGES. and he Is doing we'll. and should
he continue to show we'll his long tail will
be cut and he will be exhibited at the
national show with Nala as mate, and
II is thought that these two trottng bred
stations will beat anything else shown In
IL. SECS In which they are eligible.
