Maxwell Automobile
Takes Clutch Silently

4 sudden taxing mold OF the clutch OIL
an automobile, that frequent and exas-
perating annoyance in the operation of
the ordinary machine which all but pre-
cipitates the passengers from the ear
and works considerable damage to the
motor car in general, is said to have
been completely eliminated in the Max

the Maxwell clutch.
Engineers and expert automobile
builders for many years have sought a
solution Of this problem, the same be-
ing the subject of painstaking invcsti-
cation and experimentation. To les
sor degree it is said this damaging
annoyance in the driving of motor
ear has been eliminated ard it is
stated that the Maxwell Motor Com.
pany has been eminently successful in
completely doing away with even the
possibilities of sudden gripping
clutch.
In order TO obtain this desirable fea-
ture in automobile construction, the
Maxwell clutch assembly housing has
been so constructed that the clutch is
continually subjected to an oil bath.
When operating the clutch. in making
geer changes, the clutch falls back into
position in such manner that the film
of oil which gathers on the clutch lin
ing is gradually, but rapidly squcegeed
from the lining, the clutch at the same
time taking firmer and firmer hold.
The operation is automatic, but abso-
lutcly sure, and without jar to the car.

Ebbets Field, Brooklyn, n. Y, Sept
30.-The Brooklyn Dodgers regained
their lead in the National league this
afternoon by beating Grover Alexan-
der, putting the Phillies to rout and
bagging the second game of the day
by score of 6 to /.
The Dodgers hammered the star box
man of the Phillies to all corners of
the field. Stengel's home run in the
fourth inning started the trouble and
Alexander was not able to stop the
Robins.
Rube Marquard twirled remarkable
game, holding the Phillies to three hits.
The Phillies lost the services of their
star shortstop, Bancroft, who was in
jured in the morning game and who
| was forced to quit in the second.
Brooklyn now leads the National
league by one point and will tackle the
Giants Monday in four game series
| while the Phillies take on Boston.
Morning Game
The Phillies jumped into first place
in the gripping race for the National
league pennant when they beat the
brooklyn Dodgers 4 to in the morn
ing game of two ply bill scheduled
for today.
With Eppa Rixey pitching gilt edge
ball for them and holding the Brook
lynites at bay, the Phillies smashed
, through the Dodger defense, laced out
ten clean hits Off Jeff Pfeffer and
simply steam rolled thei. way into a
half game lead over Wilbert Robin
son s men.
Five hits was the total output Of
stick work by the Dodgers, and ON this
quintet of swats, combined with three
errors by the Phillies they were able
to work only two men across the plate.
Only about 5000 fans turned out to
witness the breakfast game between
the struggling pennant contenders. A
bright sun was shining but the weather
was decidedly footballish.
