days between games when the mem

that practically all games Will be play
cd at home. instead OF half the sched-
ule away There will probably be at
least two games a week on the home
floor until baseball Season
These changes with the fact that the
prospects are bright for a fast five,
because of a number OF good players

LIFE OF AN
AUTO MOTOR

What is the chief determining fac
tor in the life of an automobile
motor?' asked an EVENING JOUR-
NAL representative of an official Of
the Wilmington Automobile Company
recently, who knows motor cars inside
and out but he had to admit that the
query was a poser
Sounds pretty technical" he re-
piled, but let's try process OF
elimination. Take this Stevons-Duryea
motor here.
The cylinders are good for a life
time practically. because every cast
ing is tested for hardness before be-
ing used, and even after several years
of running. the wear could only be
measured in thousandths Of inch.
The crankcase will stand anything but
a vhack with sledge hammer; that
means only an accident will put Il out
CT business. DO accidents figure In
your technical problem?'
The reporter allowed that they did

should say that. ordinarily. the bear
inss would be the first thing TO give
out, that is, in an ordinary motor.
But -Duryea bearings are
made so that their life will be equal
to that of any other part.
There are three classes of motor
bearings, generally speaking. all
bronze, all babbitt. and combination
bronze and babbitt-the bronze for the
foundation and the babbltt to give
easy running qualities. That makes
the best type of bearing But the way
II is ordinarily put together, the bab.
bitt is too soft and needs constant ad.
justment, and more or less frequent
replacement to keep IN motor in trim
The Steven-Duryea bearing are made
by casting a phosphor-bronze shell
almost full of special anti-frictior
metal and then compressing the sof
metal under heavy pressure. Tn,
pressure used is so great that saving

track men are jubilant There will be
no interference with the Maryland
tracks for another year or longer
Governor Goldsborough and Attor-
ney General Poe were sweepingly
overruled when the Court of Appeals
decided that members of the Hartford
County Racing Commission did not
forfeit their Offices by failing to have
themselves sworn in within 30 days
after the date of their appointments.
The opinion was given i'm connection
with The sustaining OF the opinion
handed down By Judge Harlan in the
Circuit Court OF Hartford county. when
he dismissed the States application
for an injunction against the Havre
de Grace racing meeting. The Court
also overruled the opinion of the At.
tOrney General that the Hartford
County Racing Commission act is un-
constitutional
The decision ends the Governors
long and stormy fight to drive race
tracks out OF the State. IL was dur
ing this contest that the Governor
sent large squad of Baltimore po-
lice to the Havre de Grace track to
arrest all bookmakers doing business

ing any further action There will be
no extra session

The Courts opinion was on an ap-
peal by the State from Judge Har-
lan's opinion when he dismissed the

absolves all race track meetings held
under the act from all taint of ille
