vSir Thomas Upton
Hopeful of Taking
Cup With New Boat

There have been IL contests for the
Americas cup on this side OF the At
lantic. An even dozen times the New
York Yacht club has successfully de-
Tended it. Thirteen may not prove an
Ill omen but 1t is known that Sir
Thomas Upton thinks the Shamrock
va perfect shamrock is always four
leaved-will offset any Ill luck that
former Shamrocks have had to con-
tend with. working a spell in favor
Of the challenger and against the
bakers dozen proposition the defend
ers Will have to deal with.
Sir Thomas has good advisers on
this side of the water, and he has been
told by them that things were never
more favorable here to his winning
the cup next summer. And he has al
ways been sanguine that the yacht
designers, yacht builders and yacht
sailors of Great Britain could win
back the cup. Even in competing un-
der the old rules that permitted or
radical and so called freak designs
he felt that only a certain caution or
conservativeness on the part of Fife
and Watson fettered the possibilities
of their creations, while he IS conf
dent that Nicholson. who is turning
out his new challenger. possesses that
certain quality OF daring, or whatever
one may call 1t, to take the final step
that will insure success. Then he has
always felt that If he could get away
from racing under the old conditions
that unquestionably favored the de-
fender and compete under rules that
would favor the building of whole
some boats instead of winged scows
he would at least start with an even
break.
Heretofore the challenger in order
to cross the ocean has had to be
stronger or heavier built than the de-
fender. which has had to race only
over courses on the sound off New
port or off Sandy hook. If it stormed
she could remain at a sheltered an
chorage and In light or moderate
weather go out and race. Since 1898
the contests have never meant any
thing aside from the fact that they
were international struggles, and the
results have determined nothing save
the superiority in handling a COM
bfnation wind and water freak Pc
culiar significance therefore attaches
to the coming contest in that 1t will
be between the best real yachts two
countries can produce. They still
will be beautiful creations to look on
and win have tremendous driving
power and speed.

way being selected as the place for
the test. A roller contest between
riders Of the Century and the Acme
clubs will take place early in January.
The Acme club has arranged a series
of races on rollers for club members.
the first race being scheduled for
December 49,
New Orleans will get the 1914 A. A.
y. track and field championships.
This was practically awarded to the
southerners at the A. A. u meeting
and a mail vote is all that Is neces-
sary to ratify the action Of the board
of governors. No definite date has
been set, but 1t will be about June or
July.
1t Is nice for the Pacific association
to hear that any records applied for
from this center are always passed
without question. All records OF late
years from this coast have met with
the approval of the A. A. u and com
pliments have been handed the local
record committee for it's thoroughness
OF details in the blanks, its complete
reports on the records and accuracy
OF everything concerned in the blanks.
One thing the A. A. II. can always rely
on In connection with records from
this association Is that when an ap-
plication is made the one making the
new mark must show right up to the
rules and his performance is gone
through the most severe "acid tests
This Is more than lot OF records in
other parts of the country can boast
of.
There was time when the east
looked upon anything done on this
accomplishment or a fake. Those
days are past now. though there are
in some eastern sections still relics
of this theory to be found. or course
the Dan Kelly record rankles In the
marrow Of the easterners, but even
that record, from all that can be
gathered from authentic sources. is
1ust as good as Meredith's half mile
mark, Kohlemainen's distance records
or McGrath's hammer records. The
whole trouble In the east has been q
foolish and childish idea that the
easterners are the only people who
know how to do things, or that the
western officials are not on to their
Jobs. 1t has taken us years to show
the eastern Missourians, but me-
thinks our day OF rejoicing is at
hand.
Thus says Walter Barnes, one OF
the best known eastern athletic crit
les, in the Boston Globe of Novem-
Der %.

today represents more the aspect of
college town rather than the
hustling business and financial center
that it is. The reason is easy to find.
Any hotel in the city that the
stranger enters gold laced army or
navy men are talking in terms of end
runs, line plays. bucking the line and
such other phraseology that can only
be associated with college football.
The game this afternoon between the
army and navy has been the magnet
TO draw the thousands of people in
! official army and navy circles to the
big city.
The two teams that will be the
center Of attraction this afternoon
reached their respective hotels yes
terday and had workout on the polo
grounds during the day. The army
team is quartered at the Hotel Astor
and the sea dogs from Annapolis have
quarters at the Vanderbilt.
The soldier boys have made them
selves at home on the roof of the
hotel, and early this morning put in
final bit of practice on secret Sig
nails way above the humdrum of New
York's busy life.
Forty-fi five thousand people will see
the game this afternoon, including
President Wilson and his family, as
well as Vice President Marshall and
innumerahle members of both houses.
TfEe army and navy will be wen rep
resented by everything from major
generals and rear admirals right down
the line.
The nonpartisan betting element
favors the navy boys. the odds being
about 10 TO Z. Betting between the
cadets and the middies themselves,
however, is at even money, this be-
ing tradition and custom for is years
past. ever since the game was first
originated.
Very few tickets have reached the
spectators. though there are some
to be found, prizes varying up TO s2s
for a single ticket to SIS for two
seats together.
The teams are ready for the fray
and viii leave their hotels about noon
for the polo grounds.

tories, is making It's debut in San
Francisco this week under the guid-
ance of C. C. Eichelberger. one of the
veterans Of the tire industry on the

known of the members OF the San

Eichelberger, who pioneered the
Firestone tire interests on the coast.
has secured the western representa-
tion for the Portage tire and opens

very much pleased with the Portage
tires, says.
while Portage tires are compar-
atively new to the public, yet they are
constructed by the combined expert
ence of an organization formerly con-
nected with FIVE OF the larger and
best known tire factories and are the
result OF a combination of the best
methods OF construction. hence they
are not an experiment and are new

have the combined proven points Of

CAD|LLAC|NG
POPULAR
IN GAL.

Two weeks ago sleighing in two
feet of snow on the outskirts of Chi
cago; last week Cadillacing amid the
flower gardens of California, is the
experience Rosalind Coghlan, the pop
ular young actress, has enjoyed with
in the fortnight.
The day before she left for the coast
a heavy snow fell in Chicago, and
knowing she was coming west for
long tour and would not have the
opportunity of enjoying a good, old
time sleigh ride for many q day, she
took advantage of the opportunity and
looking up a sleigh went skimming
over the snow.
She arrived in California last week,
and not having been here for several
years was amazed at the changes she
found. Naturally, she longed to see
the country, and one of Don Lees
1914 seven passenger touring cars was
placed at her disposal.
The first day she lounged COM
fortably in the tonneau with her pet
poodle. As she rode she noted the
quietness, entire absence of noise or
feeling of any power strain.
The car seems to run ITSELF" she
explained as she was being whizzed
out the boulevard.

this?"
The fair lady was first placed at
the wheel. She was told to touch a
button and push a pedal. Instantly
the motor started. Dawson explained
the purpose OF. the change from low
TO intermediate and then to high.
MISS Rosalind said she had ridden a
bicycle and realized that the change
In the size of the sprocket wheel on
bicycle made difference in the
speed or the bicycle. It was explained
tnat the automobile gearing was on
the same principle; that it was nee
essary to start on the low and gradu-
ally work up to high, as the speed OF

ing the engine speed with the rear

was told In Its simplest way and she
was instructed in changing the
speeds and shifting the gears while
the car was standing. Then the mo-
tor was started and with the gears
in neutral she was shown the man
ner OF speeding up the engine. Fiji
teen minutes after she took the wheel
the car was moving and she had
switched the gears. True, she did
not do 1t like an old timer. but she
accomplished 1t without mishap. In
another 10 minutes she had made the
change a number of times and had
discovered that by pushing both feet
the car could be stopped in a very
short distance. She became confused
several times. but in exactly / hour
and minutes she was able to operate
the car without assistance

I TRA|N[0 D
Of BUCKS
HERE

Now that the record breaking trair1-
posed of, there are numerous defama-
tory rumors being circulated regard
ing this gigantic shipment, says G. III.
Howard, head of the Howard Automo-
bile company. Pacific coast distribu-
ters of Buick cars. These rumors
are mostly started by persons who
have no idea or conception of the
demand for autos in our territory, and
can readily imagine that to this
class of people the bringing of 415
automobiles, valued at $522,374, to the
coast in a solid trainload is an abb
solute impossibility. Another class
who are responsible for a certain per-
centage of these false reports is the
man who has a limited amount OF
business experience and who imme-
diately jumps to the conclusion that
the cars are shipped to US on con-
signment simply for the ADVERTISE
ment which such shipment derives
In the spring OF 1912 when we
brought three train1oads. each one
larger than the last. to the coast in
less than 60 days, these reports be-
came so persistent that to protect our
good name we were forced to offer
a $4,000 reward payable to any
ing that our train1oad shipments were
not as stated. This offer is still good.
and my suggestion to the man or
woman who is in possession OF facts
proving these shipments to be other
than represented is to claim the $10.-
900 reward.
The person who will take the trou-
BILE to give this matter the slightest
thought will see how absolutely fool
ish 1t would be to misrepresent a
shipment of this size. In the first
place the records of the railroad COM
panies handling this shipment are
open to the public at all times, and
it is a matter Of minutes only to look
up the bill Of lading and see whether
the Ais Bucks which we claim were
shipped is on record. In fact, the
person looking this matter up will
find that the shipment contained 416
Bucks. instead of AIS, and that the
train was made up of SO double
decked cars, instead of SS as adver-
tised. This increase in the size of the
| train was caused by the Buick fac
tory not being able to load some OF
the cars as per our instructions, and
the one extra car was truck chassis
which we telegraphed for just before
the train left.
| The folly of bringing a shipment Of
this size to the coast simply for ad-
vertising purposes will be apparent
| to any one when the cost OF such
shipment is taken into consideration
In the first place the freight alone
on the trainioad from Flint to San
Francisco is more than $4,000.
Then there is the item of interest
on an investment of more than half a
million dollars. To this expense II IS
necessary to add several thousand
dollars to cover the cost of double
decking the freightcars in order TO
load the machines two deep
