Though they were not manufactured for
racing cars. and we're onlyN hastily pre-
pared for contest cork by their individual
owners, four Model 50 Overlands, in wide
ly separated sections of the country,
have recently shown. considerable class
in speed and adurance competitions,
says Walter Melville Drennen of the Over
land agency Two of the cars started
in races In California; one in the first
automobile race ever held in New Mexico
and the fourth in an endurance run in
Wisconsin.
THE Cobb Evans Auto Co., Fresno,
Call has added two notable achievement s
to its string of racing honors since tho
national holiday. On July 4, one OF
their stripped Overlands. with Thomas
McKelvy at the wheel, took fourteenth
place in the big ;'acfc coast road from
Los Angeles to Sacramento. But 10 Of
the 43 starters ir the race finished. she
grueling pase set over 446 miles of good,
bad and Indifferent mountain and valley
roads, through rivers and up and down
hills having eliminated the "a other con-
testants. The showing of the little Over
land in this contest is considered especial
ly remarkable since the high-priced
foreign and American cars, one of which
ad a 120 horsepower motor, were anon g
the entrants. The strenuous nature Of
the run is shown in the fact that with
in miles, in the San Francisquito carr
yon. the river of that name had to ce
forded no less than 40 times. On Sun
day, July 6. Fred Wiseman, driving an
other little Overland belonging to the
Cobb Evans Co., took first prize in the
free-for-all race held lit Sacramento
Three American cars and one big foreign
car were the ether eontenders for
honors.'

THE new traffic laws which have
again been postponed by the COM
missioners Will. it is said, be con-
tributed to by some local experts before
the laws are PASSED The commission so
far in their deliberations. as to the best
traffic laws and the bestl tlsolution of the
downtown traffic evils have failed to
give the commission some interesting and
valuable information on that score.
The traffic laws as now drafted seem
to be very fine on paper. but whether 1t
will be possible 10 practically execute
the laws is another proposition. The new
laws have been printed from time to
time and are reasonably familiar to the
large number of automobile men here.
Very few comments have been made yet,
but it is taken that some of the auto
mobile men look upon the ordinance as
being utterly impractical from many
Viewpoints The automobile men eontem-
plated the drafting of an ordinance en-
bodying the appointment of an examining
board to examine, but on account of the
state laws conflicting with the local sit
uation in that respect nothing has
been done.

WHAT'S IN A NAME2

r. L. Coke. agent for Apperson cars,
said yesterday in explaining the unusual
name given his cars:
On the radiator of every Apperson car
that leaves the factory in Kokomo, Ind,
is found the Jack Rabbit" the trade
mark emblem of the Apperson Brothers
Automobile company. The two Apperson
entries in the Indiana Pacific tour Nos
II and Is are not exceptions to the rule.
1.-THE Jack Rabbits are much in evi-
dence in the tour to the coast. and are
meeting many of their brother Jack Rab-
bits in escorting parties. Back of every
trademark emblem there is a story. Ell
mer Apperson adopted the Jack Rabbit
through a peculiar circumstance.
Before gasoline automobiles, of which
he is the father became common on the
roads, an Indiana sportsman took one of
the Apperson cars to the Dakotas on
hunting trip. The party carried guns and
fish spears with them to provide food
but on loading the car one morning they
forgot their reserve supply of ammuni-
ton. However, this was not discovered
until the next morning as they put up
for the night at the shack of a settler
Food was scare and in the morning
the party volunteered to go out and get
enough Jack Rabbits for breakfast
Being unable to find their supply of am
munition they asked their host to provide
it but he was entirely out. However, un-
daunted by the lack of their guns they
started out with the men on the running
boards and using their fish spears they
obtained a large number of rabbits re-
turning with an ample supply of food
for several days. The Apper being much
faster than the Jack Rabbits the task
had been an easy one. "

Developments which will distinguish the
1914 Cadillac, the exact nature OF which
will soon be revealed.
Those active in the industry-and lay-
men as welfare always keenly curious
about contemplated motor car improve
ments and what they portend, but TINS
interest is whetted 10 its keenest edge
when the Cadillac announces new Sc
ries because of the position the COM
pany occupies in the history and deYel-
opment of the motor car. The reason is
obvious: Conservatism has been coupled
with foresightedncss. Henry NJ. Leland,
advisory MANAGE of the Cadillac the
founder and guiding spirit of the concern,
is an extremely conservative man with
half a century OF experience in the me-
chanical world, Yet he has been called the
youngest" man in the automobile indus
try today. In the affairs of the Cadillac,
there has been 4 wholesome fear of the
whims of the fadst. ana the merely tenn
porary in Innovations. But the company,
nevertheless, has from time to time
played the role of pioneer and has inau'
gureted several important epochs in the
development Of the motor car. One of
these epochs illustrates in an especially
significant manner the reason for the pub
lies attitude toward this company. X
was two years ago first to introduce an
automatic electrical cranising and lighting
system 1t was Il revolution in efficiency
and comfort. AS there have been many
other progressive features first developed
in this car, the query is now naturally
voiced each year,
"what will the Cadillac do!'
The Cadillac ccmpany's conservatism
has not permitted it to make rash PROM
ises. Therefore, when 1t declares that
1t is about to inaugurate another new and
progressive development, the perform
ances, is on the qui vive to know just
what these statements portend.

Chalmers winning a trophy in Cahfor-
mia last week.
"A Chalmers car, driven by Halsey w.
Smith of Sacramento, Cal. has captured
the Sacramento Star trophy for making
the first successful trip to Lake Tahoe
and returning under its own power within
the state time of IS hours. This run is
acknowledged to be the most severe and
uncertain which western coast motorists
have ever attempted
The rules and regulations which gov
erned the contest were that the car
should be a stock car in every respect and
that 1t should not be drawn by horses or
any other power except its own. Half
hundred cars have competed for the cup
this season. but with the exception of the
Chalmers, were compelled to give up and
turn back after encountering snow
drifts ranging from one to five feet in
depth and many rods long.
Mr.. Smith who drove the Chalmers.
with three enthusiasts In the car, left
Sacramento at 5 o'clock In the evening
on May 49, and arrived at the Tallael<
hotel near Lake Tahoe at 40 p. m. of
the same day. They left the hotel on
the return trip at 1910 a. m. on the MORN
Ing of May "a, and arrived back in Sac
ramento at $40 a. M
"One of the remarkable features of the
trip is the fact that the members of the
party were never once compelled to get
out of the car. The car stopped twice
when Mr.. Smith left the seat at the Tai-
lack hotel to register his time.
THE gear that won the cup has been
placed on exhibition at the Chalmers
salesroom in Sacramento
