NEW YORK, Dec. 6.-The plan of
the American intercollegiate Rowing
association to hold one big regatta
for all the college crews is heartily
endorsed by Coach Jim Rice Of Co
lumbia
Rice suggested that the race be
held ON Lake Carnegie, at Princeton,
and that an admission fee be charged
so that suitable trophies could be
purchased. lie also suggests that the
distance be cut TO two miles.
If this suggestion is adopted 1t will
do away with the annual Poughkcep-

THE DEPRECIATION OF AUTO
MOBILES.

y man was asked the other day
what it cost him to run his automo-
bile He remarked that gasoline,
tires, and garage fees cost him eight
cents per mile. He had had no re-
pairs TO speak of, but other items,
mostly depreciation, were so large
that he figured the whole thing as
: . cents a mile.
This may be an exaggerated state
ment of depreciation. But most peo-
pie on buying a machine do not look
the fact squarely in the face that de-
probation is commonly the biggest
single item.
If people were not SO crazy after
speed, a motOr-car would last much
longer. Most mechanisms stand on a
firm base in a factory and even then
they wear out. An automobile is sub
ject TO the infinitely greater strain Of
being jerked over rough roads at high
rates Of speed. II is no wonder that
many owners. according to the auto
mobile owner quoted above. need to
charge off a. third the cost of their
investment each year.
