COMPLETE STAND
IN FALL OF 1914
Yale Stadium Will Be Ready
for Football Season After
Next.

NEW HAVEN, March s.-The sta
dunn committee and the Yale ath-
letic authorities have abandoned all
hope of having the new stadium
ready by next fall, the announced
date for the opening of the big coli
scum, and It will not be in shape to
occupy until a year from next fall at
the ale-Harvard game.
The official announcement of this
fact with the reasons will be made
known next week or by the Easter
vacation at least, but the information
committee and is authentic, although
the members of the committee will
not make statements until the Of
fetal announcement Is made.
Several months ago the committee
announced that the big stadium would
be ready by next fall There was no
question about II.
Enough money had been raised and
pledged to put the work well under
way, and enough was in sight for the
completion of the stadium though not
for the carrying out of all the plans

The announcement was made that the
actual constructive work would start
as soon as the frost was out of the
ground in the spring, which would
mean about the first of March, and
that without question the big game
between Yale and Princeton would be
played there next fall. Better days
for Yale football with the new stadium
and with Howard Jones as permanent
Yale coach were Immediately looked
forward to, but now Howard Jones'
first year as a professional coach VIII
have to be spent in the old field.
The reason for the delay has been
because of a possible change Of plan
The members of the committee deny
that there has been any friction in
the committee, and, this is true, but
there has certainly been strong diff
ference of opinion. which came to A
head after the plans for the stadium
had been adopted and tentative con-
tracts for the construction made

Inferior Oil Causes
Many Motor Ills

The use of an interior quality of Iubri-
eating oil leads TO a number of evils
apart from unsatisfactory fabrication.
Carbon deposits will form On the COM
bustion chamber walls, on the piston
heads. and ON the points of the sparkling
plugs.
Ignition will be interfered with and
finally stopped through short circuitin2
across the insulation of the plugs. The
deposit may In time become SO thick
~ to hold sufficient heat from one ex-
plosion to another to cause pre-ignition,
which is liable to cause the motor to run
with more or less knock"
II pre-ignition is suspected a test can
be made by cutting out the ignition cur
rent II this fault is not present the
motor will stop: but IL pre-ignition is
occurring the motor will run without as
yistance of legitimate aids to ignition.
Shutting off the supply of fuel will
bring the engine to a standstill.

IMPROVEMENT DUE
TO INFERIOR FUEL!
Manufacturers Unwilling to
See Cars Robbed Of Their
Efficiency by "Gas."

Most of us who drive automobiles
i;Id ourselves complaining now and
then. or oftener. about the low Grade
Of gasolene now marketed" said a
pioneer motorist. :.
I'VE may be justified. in a measure.
but the very fact that gasolene has
steadily grown poorer In quality has
had much to do with motorcar improve
ment. So here is the ill wind saying
illustrated again.
No manufacturer who is alive to the
situation Is willing to see his car robbed
Of much of its efficiency by the fuel.
Accordingly. the manufacturers have i'm
proved their cars; and the result is that
the buyer and owner has a better car
than he would IL circumstances were
different.
The gasolene We are getting nova
days Is heavy and hard to vaporize.
Accordingly, motors are given greater
power of suction in order to get full
charge of fuel into the firing chambers.
The more progressive manufacturers
are also providing means of heating
the carburetors. as neat makes the
gasolene vaporize more easily. On sew
eral makes of cars the carburetor is
heated by hot-air jacket through
which the exhaust is directed.
This practice has been adopted by
some makers. while others jacket he
carburetor with hot water from the
radiator. The hot-air system, / believe.
is better. for the carburetor begins to
warm up with the first few explosions
In the motor; but with the other sys-
tenn the water in the radiator must be
heated. which takes some time, before
the carburetor Is affected"
