Loser of PhOenix-Globe Test Writes of Remark able Result of Trial With Ensign Carburetor, Phoe- nix to Tucson

You can't keep a good carbureter hid
 Neither can you deprive Wild Bill Tremaine of a chance to spurge Cuz why?
 Bill Tremaine went farther than did Jack Smith. Bill tried out two different kinds of petrol in his car. In letter to the automobile crank of this paper, he says:
 "To show you the difference be- tween gasoline and distillste used in an Ensign carbureter we give YOU following table on d trip from Phoenix to Tucson and return:
 Gasoline

 Mileage, 139 miles, 61s gallons dis tiilate. cost per mile, O07c (Sgned) w. D. TREMAINE Brief isn't it? But to the point. Bill doesn't even tell when he did this, or what car he used. At the rate he was saving gas, he would be pretty close to Smiths Globe Phoenix record. if he had had a little more luck. But there are no hills to coast down on the state highway
 The Ensign carbureter Bill refers to is the invention of O. H Ensign, the chief engineer of the Salt river pro- ject.

Especial to The Republican,

OWENSBORO, Ky, March 21-"Ari- zona" Herb Hall, the western giant, who was tipped off to Manager Clark of Milwaukee by "Bill' Murray, the American Association umpire, is as bashful as he is big.
 He reached Owensboro at o'clock in the morning and as he did not see any of the players around. sat down in the waiting room and went to sleep in- stead of telling who he was and getting a room. He was too bashful to report to Clark for twelve hours after his ar rival.
 Hall is as big as Bill Powell. the big gest veteran in the league and prob ably weighs more. He formerly pitched for teams in the Southern California and Salt River Valley Leagues. His home is in Phoenix, Arizona.

 Rolling Start
 1 When John Hohl. refree of the race. consulted his rules which ar rived with the sanction last night in l The Republican office he announced to the committee that it would have to be rolling start.
 Whats that" inquired the gnor- ant bunch, which had never seen anything but flying or standing starts.
 Hohl explained that the machines are lined up at the north turn, and sent away slow. together, like trot- ting horses. They come down in close formation, and as they cross the tape. if they are not too scat tered, the starter drops his flag and they give their machines the gun. Stokes Coming
 Information received through un- { derground channels convinces the committee that Glen Stokes, the EX- celsior rider who won the hour race at Bakersfield on the fifteenth, is entry in the l00-miler.
 In the same way that Baker left here, at the last moment. so will Stokes make his way to Phoenix. Bafer is hoping his rival will come. The hour race was won and lost on 6 track that is nearly circular, whci C the turns are adeeply banked. There will b., TO motordrome riding on the Phoenix track. It will take riding to win this race Sunday. With Stokes may come Don Johns another Ex- ce,sior rival of Baker's. Young Tice who won second place on the Pope in the hour race, is another victin that Baker would like to see iI Phoenix tomorrow ..
 Said Baker yesterday: T am mol predicting what I will do in tha race. It won't be over until the las machine crosses the tape. With thu track in it's present condition I wouk redc. 9S minutes for the hundred miles. But if Johnny Akin gets th' south turn n better shape, we ough to do about 95 or 96 minutes"
