FRANKLIN TEST CAR IS At

Having made the entire trip from

on low gear and without stopping the
motor, the Franklin test car reached
Oakland at 4.20 last evening. practi-
cally terminating its journey iras-

made in the remarkable time of 50

and some fearful roads were oncoun-
tered The roads over the mountains
from the North Fork of the John
Day to Burns were very bad, due 10
the heavy rains which had washed
great holes and LETT many high CEN
te!s. From Burns south across the
desert, the roads were even worse
because of stones and sand dunes
Despite this fact the car made the
trip ahead of schedule time and MT.
McCormmach is willing to wager that
no other car than a Franklin can DO
the same feat with all. Of the gears,
So rapid Nas the journey that the
baggage of the three men, sen; by

he start was made, only beat them
into san Francisco one hour and the

Making the trip on low gear is

MAY STORE WATER FOR
NAT IN OLD RESERVOIR

4 possible solution Of the natatoif-
um water problem may be found in
the use Of the old reservoir as a stor-
age place for the overflow water
when II is not being taken By the
swimming pool A number Of the
city officials have been considering
this matter and while the proper
connections may not be made this
summer, 1t is probable that the ne
cessary work will be done next year
At the present time there Is plenty
Of overflow water in one night to
refil the pool II all Of it could be
taken. However. the pipes feeding
the pool are not large enough to car
~ all OF the overflow and, conse-
quently, additional water is necessary

asmuch as the overflow pipe now
