CAR GOES 28.7 MILES

Red Grown Shows Remarkable Test.

Judged by c. A. c. Committee.
Surprising results were obtained
Tuesday in Chicago, when, in dis
lance test on the boulevards, 1915
big six went 1871 miles on a gallon OF
Red Crown gasoline. The test was
made to demonstrate the fuel economy
Of high test gasoline, by the technical
committee of the Chicago Automobile
Club.
Red Crown gasoline, So test. was de-
cided upon by the judges and drivers
as the best gasoline to be used. All
through the trip the clutch was not
slipped, except when traffic congestion
made 1t necessary. The dash adjust.
ment on the carburetor was discon-
nected, and In order that the test be
a fair one, the fan was in operation
throughout the run.
Next came the acceleration test.
With the carburetor adjustment the
same as during the economy run, the
car was driven from standing start to
thirty miles an hour in IL As seconds.
The fexibility test saw the car run
at four miles an hour, then speeded
up to forty-four.
The test proves that the six is not
an excessive fuel consumer, where the
best gasoline Is used.
