game Of most exciting interest was
played here Thursday night between

The thing that added interest was
the reputation Of the Elkins team,
and the fact that 1t had defeated the
Salem boys in q previous game at
Elkins by an unprecedented score OF

AUTOMOBILE ICE
racing IS POPULAR
10000 Spectators See Over
land Car Win Duluth
Event


Automobile ice racing on Lake Su-
perior. a novelty in winter sport, ar
ranged by Duluth motor car dealers,
as the closing event of their first au-
tomobile show, proved a great draw
ing card.
At least 10000 spectators saw an
Overland roadster win the feature
event an eight-mile race. The four
mile oval was lined with spectators
while the shore was literally dotted
with people.
The cars were equipped with tire
chains to enable them TO hold the
track on the turns. where the slippery
ice made speed difficult. The Overland
covered the two laps in eight minutes.
tWenty-eight seconds, remarkably
fast time. considering the difficulties
OF the novel course. The second car
finished one minute and eleven Sec
onds later. leading the third by full
minute.
The race, which was virtually the
first ever attempted on Lake super
ior, proved such a popular form Of
sport that it has been decided TO give
an ice racing program once a month
next winter.
With the support of the Duluth bus
mess men, the dealers of the city
hope to offer prizes large enough to
induce many of the world-known
drivens to enter. In this way they ex-
pect to establish the city as a center
for winter sports

TYPEWRITER COS. TAKE

An indication that business condi-

Sales Manager r. c. Rueschaw, of the
REQ Motor Car Company, in letter to
REQ dealers.
ITO say that We are swamped with
orders is TO put it mildly. We have
heard from every REQ dealer i'm the
last. two weeks, and every one has
asked for at least four times as many
automobiles as We can possibly sup
ply him. II takes us back to the time
when there were about twenty buyers
for every one car that was produced.
and when man who owned a car was
envied The mornings bunch of grief
smashed all previous order records.
One of our distributors sent in orders
for twenty-five carloads of cars, all to
be shipped direct to his sub-dealers,
and this is only the third day Of the
month. You can imagine what this
dealer will want before We get to the
end of the month. Added to that, his
contract calls for the delivery OF go
cars this month, which we thought
when he made out his estimate was
Just about right, and that if we gave

Cadillac EIGHT
Good ON Any ROAD
Jack Below Sends His Car
$50 Miles on High Gear
Without Change

over all sorts of roads with a Cad
lilac Eight, uphill and down. through
sand and mud, for ESQ miles on high
without a single gear change,
even in starting is the record set by
Jack Bellew, Of Los Angeles, Cal.
This feat was the outcome Of a
wager between Mr. Bellew and some
friends, following his recital of some
Of the things his new Cadillac Eight
had done on high gear. Bellew left
Los Angeles at o'clock in the morn
ing, starting his car ON high gear and
carrying as observers the men who,
in the evening, paid the wager
The car was first driven to River
side, on the way encountering deep
mud on a rough road over which the
car was throttled down to ten miles
an hour. A short stop was made at
Riverside and the car went on to
Redlands, San Bernardino and Arrow
head where lunch was had. From
Arrowhead TO Stoddard's camp the
road was poor because of recent
aAhcf Jul gave no liOuults ny . III
the afternoon the party was back in
Los Angeles, with the speedometer
reading 1886 miles.
Just to show you what the car
will do" Bellew told his passengers,
wen take the Laurel canyon route
TO the State highway instead Of going
by Cahuenga." So far as road con-
ditions are concerned, this was the
most difficult part of the trip. The
canyon route is generally avoided by
automobiles because of its bad grades
and sharp turns. The Cadillac, how
ever, went the route with ease.
When the party again returned TO
Los Angeles by another and longer
road the distance covered was we'll
over $50 miles. The gears had not
been out of high speed all day long,
in spite of hills and sand and mud.
and the One-time doubters acknowl-
edged their error of judgment as
gracefully as they could and paid the
wager. The Harris Engine Company
is the local representative for the
Cadillac. This concern sold three
Cadillacs during the past week.

Harry n. Partington, manager Of

distributors of the Hudson car of
course, is enthusiastic over the New
Hudson Six. Mr.. PartingtOn says:
Probably no engineer in the auto
mobile business is so universally
known, and none is held in higher
esteem than Howard +. Coffin, the
famous designer of the Hudson cars
His achievements are known the
world around, wherever motor cars
are used He has designed nearly a
dozen cars. and it is his record that
he never built a failure. With thou
sands of brainy engineers constantly
working on motOr-car problems, Mr..
COfin's genius is shown in the fact
that whatever he touches. he i'm
proves. He built the first four-cyi-
inder car Of high grade to sell at a
popular price. For years he expert
mented with the siX-cylinder car,
while the public was contentedly
driving his splendid fOur-cylinder
production. Many users felt that
this four-cylinder car reached the
acme of perfection. When all was
ready. Mr.. Coffin produced his six
cylinder automobile. While many
Improvements have been made on the
first Hudson Six, still it was prac-
tically a perfect production when Il
was put on the market. UnfOrtu-
nately this cannot be said of all new
ideas in automobiles. Very many en-
gineers in their haste to get a new
thing before the public, endeavor to
put it into commercial form and get
il into the hands Of users while il is
still in a more or less experimental
state. One of the reasons for the won
derful success that has attended
cars designed by Mr. Coffin is the
fact that each and every ctr was
practically a perfect motor car be-
fore he allowed it to be produced
and marketed
