WASHINGTON, Sept 27.-Manager
Clark Griffith of the Nationals. IL a
firm believer, in luck-at least as APP
piled to baseball 1t would be pretty
hard to find a man better qualified to
Judge. The "0ld Fox certainly mas
had his share Of bumps,
with the least iota Of break of good
fortune he would have landed at least
two remnants for Frank Farrell. This
year he might have driven the Ath-
letlcs to cover had his fine, aggressive
young team not been so seriously
handicapped by injuries to players.
Griffith has had some pretty tough
luck in his career, and particularly
this season He seems a man des-
tined to always be on the threshold OF
great fame without being able to hnd
the latchstring. He has had many
buffets, but he has likewise enjoyed
some few favors of tickle fortune.
These came along now and then as
blessings in disguise. And not the
least Of the lot by any means has been

southpaw, who so far has been the

toriai in THE Automobile" one OF the
authorities of the industry, ''it Is ques-
tionable II the two-speed axle, now
that It has been announced by the
Cadillac company, will not be taken
up with avidity. The two-speed axle
is more needed today than even be-
fore, first because cars are being
made heavier and motors smaller, and
second because fuel consumption is
being given more consideration than
ever before.
There is need for greater fuel
economy, as many cars are entirely
too extravagant on fuel The re-
duction In motor dimensions tends to
reduce the fuel consumed. but the
added weights place handicap on II.

vice versa. The two-speed axle meets
these requirements and gives each
owner direct drive. Not only will the
motor have a longer life, but the wear
and strain on all of the other parts
of the car will be correspondingiy re-
duced.
"For h,liy countries there is ample
necessity for two direct drives as at
