MICHELIN TIRE co.
QUITS RAGING

The Michelin Tire co. Announces
that 1T has withdrawn from further
participation in automobile racing.
Ihis statement comes as a surprise,
especially as 1t Is made at the close
OF an unusually successful season.
Michellns having won the grand prize,
the Vanderbilt the Elgin stock car and
Iree~tor-all, he 500-mile race at In
annapolis and many minor contests.
When asked for the reasons that led
the company to adopt this radical pol
icy, J. Hauvette- Michelin, who is head
OF the big works at Midtown, N. j.,
said:
Our interest in automobile racing
has always been confined to a study of
the effects on tires Of fast driving,
quick braking, taking turns at high
speed and on other sever contingent
cies seldom experienced in every day
service. The knowledge gained in sew
enteen years close study of the effects
on tires of long distance road contests
has unq~uestionably helped us to i'm
prove our product and in this the mo-
toring public has also profited.
0 racing is dying out. because
many manufacturers of standard mod
els are not willing to compete against
specially built racing machines. Track
races and other hippodrome perfor-
survive, but the average con-
sumner certainly does not expect to
drive on the race track. so we have no
desire to make tires for track racing.
On the other hand, contests like the
Vanderbilt cup, the Elgin stock car and
the international grand prize have un-
q~uestionably aided US In giving the mo-
toring public better tires.
Another fact that We cannot over
look is the regrettable number OF Sc
rious accidents that have occurred this

climbed into the calcium glare and
took his place along side Miss Billie
Burke when he visited the factory OF
the Ford Motor Co, recently and let
a certain inquisitive press agent do an
interview with the approved Allen
Dale-egQue eclat.
Eddie with his company was pre-
senting Over the River In Detroit
nights, sleeping mornings and seeing
the town afternoons.
When home. Eddie occasionally
takes his eight children-ya ugh-huh
out for an airing in his Ford; so when
he was in Detroit he wanted to see
the factory that built the a that
a hold all of his family at one
time.
AS soon as he stepped inside the
factory, Allen Dale's understudy was
on the job.
"Mr. Er-er-Foy, / believer The in
teryiewer was sparring for an open
ing.
"Eh-what's that, yes, yes. I'm It,"
the comedian countered.
Nice day. Mr.. Toy, don't you
think?"
quite right. and-yes, 1 think, that
is occasionally"
How do you like our city?' the in
terviewer forgot his resolution to be
original and brought out the old
standby. It's a safe and san ques-
course of any interview and will all
ways get you by with the editors.
Fine nifty, fine city. One of the most
beautiful cities I have ever visited"
Cthis sort OF reply is always made to
this sort OF question: "and the girls
are the most beautiful Of any I've
Are any Of your eight children as
funny as your"
All of them"
The interview was now going fam
uosly. Mr.. Foy "a replying to each
question with great care and deliber-
alton. He seemed to be endeavoring
to form an answer that would be sat
~isfactory, but at the ann time, one
that would not commit him too much.
So the press agent interviewer thought
1t high time to haul around to the one
topic of Importance to him-the one
he is paid for being interested in.
Got a car, Mr.. Foy?" he asked with
an attempt at nonchalance.
You can bank all you have on it,
said the comedian, getting enthused,
and it's a Ford"
This was like candy from the
baby for the press agent. Here was
his story. Mr.. Foy-Eddie Foy-owns
a Ford and he likes it. Visions Of
reams of stuff to be sent to the pa

head.

toned adroitly.

"Why do you like it,"
Because 1t goes. I'll tell you a lit

Limericks and verses poured into
The Forum Office by the bushel in the
contest for the box seats to Paul Gill
more in The Havoc. The limerick
editor sat UP the greater part of the
night, reading n sorting. The re-
suits Of the contest are given above.
In awarding the prizes a number of
things were taken into consideration.
In the first place a number of good
verses were ruled out because they
did not comply with the rules in some
respect. In many instances the on
testants failed to attach the Forum
coupons and these could n be con-
sidered.
Originality was given consideration
in awarding the prizes. This was
especially true in awarding the first
prize to Mr.. Godfrey. The latter
gentleman sent in the largest number
of contributions from one contestant
and all Of them were good. This also
was considered in awarding him first
place.
The second prize is not a limerick
but II the rules of the contest are read
over 1t will be noted that verses also
in this was taken into consideration.
The winning verses:

BUCKED SNOW IN AUTO


DR.. A. NJ. Fowle OF Superior, Wis,
passed through Fargo several days
age on his way to the coast in a Model
SO Overland. He was accompanied by
his wife and daughter. After leaving
Fargo he kept Manager English of the
Wheelock Auto Co. informed of his
progress by postal card.
He encountered snow at Minot but
ploughed on and bucked the drifts un-
til he reached the top OF the world on
the continental divide. Having ac-
conplished all hat any motor car
could be expected to do, he decided to
travel in comfort from there and ship
ped to Seattle. In a letter received
yesterday he stated that he would soon
start on a tour down the coast to the
land Of flowers, California.
