OUT FOR NEW RECORD.
Don McRoberts, Denver Motorist,
Issues CHALLENGE to Joe Dawson.

From out of Denver comes a cry for a
chance to beat the record made by De-
Palma in the last 5o0-mile international
sweepstakes race on the Indianapolis
Motor Speedway. Don McRoberts offers
a challenge to Joe Dawson, saying in
letter that he can take the Mercedes
car his boss owns. and defeat Dawson
at the wheel of a National.
This man declareth that with himself
at the wheel Of Mercedes car Dawson
would never have won the 5O0-mile race
In his National number last May. De-
Palma drove a Mercedes and gave the
world one of its most spectacular sam
pies of excellent driving. but the Denver
race devotee believes he could do him
one better.
McRoberts wants to bring a Mercedes
car to Indianapolis and stage a 5oo-mile
race for Dawson in a National and Nc
Roberts in a Mercedes
1t is not thought that Dawson will con-
slider the proposition. and the suggestion
has been made that II McRoberts wants
to win the 55-mile race. he may try to
enter the one this coming May and see
il he can break Dawson's wonderful rec
ord in the National of Si.72 miles an hour.

GAS TANK UNDER DASH
HAS MANY ADVANTAGES
HupnebiIe Innovation Widely Copied
BY Manufactures This
Year.


Last season." said Assistant Chief
Engineer D. T. Hastings. Of the Hupp
Motor Car Company, when We first
brought out the '32' long-stroke Hup-
mobile, the location Of the gasoline
tank. under tho dash shroud, Just for
ward Of the drivers seat, was favor
ably commented upon. and notice has
been adopted by many manufacturers
this year. A big advantage in having
the tank so situated Is that the gaso-
line is positively fed to the carburetor
by gravity, no matter where you are
driving. be 1t on q level stretch of road
or climbing a hill. Again. in this posi-
tion 1t Is easily accessible. and we do
away with the bother and trouble OF
disturbing the passengers when one
the case when 1t is situated under the
seat
The Hupmobile gasoline system a.
unique and possesses many advantages
not found among other low-price cars.
In the drst place, the quantity of gaso-
line Is always definitely known by a
gauge which accurately tells the
amount in the tank. A reserve supply
Of ono gallon is always held for emer-
gency purposes which may be instantly
released simply by turning the gaso-
line outlet handle.
ITO keep the gasoline clean, and
free from all impurities or other sub
stances which will lessen its explosive
efficiency. a screen is situated under
meath the tank just before the gasoline
enters the carburetor. This screen is
SO fine that water will not pass
through. and as the gasoline on its
way to tho carburetor goes into this
screen all water and dirt Is separated
from II. A drain cock let's out all the
sediment collected by this screen. In
this way the gasoline is fit for perfect
carburetion. and the m;Gture obtained
gives maximum power to the motor.
for mono OF the gasoline is wasted by
improper carburetion."

the effect that when she and her brothers

a singular way when held up to the

George Copper. who spent many years
in the testing department OF the Pierce
Arrow factory. is a new addition to the
testing staff of the factory OF the Moon
Motor Car Company in ST. Louis.
Mr.. Coppers speciality Is testing cars
after they have been built rather thar
the testing of the raw materials which

DOWN AND RUNS DRY IN
THE STREET.

Of course it is known of all men
theoretically speaking the water
wagon broke down in Columbia Sep
TENDER 20 in a very decisive manner,
but a practical demonstration was
not made Of this fact until Friday
afternoon, when the left hind wheel
of this much Wanted vehicle went
down in the street. No information
is at hand as to the why of the disas-
ter, though it is supposed it was caus-
ed by too many getting aboard. In
quiry developed the fact, however,
that it was not Ham, but a son OF
Ham, who was doing the driving, and
that the wagon actually went dry be-
fore the climbers on would desert it.
