SPRING TRAINING
TRIPS in DOUBT

Philadelphia. Nov. 25.-Connie Mack,
manager of the Athletics, is ready to
abandon his spring offensive on Jack

open until May /.
"I have a team of young players"
explained Connie. land they could get
into condition just as quickly train
ing North in April as working in Flor
ida in March.
Unusual conditions are prevailing
now, and the expense of sending a
team South is an item that cannot be
overlooked. AS it looks now, the sea-
son will not start until May !. and 1

only ten Fighters
REMAIN in AUSTRALIA
But Four Out of Eighty Below Draft
Limit Have Enlisted in Y. S.

Much has been written serious. hu-
morous and satirical about the
failure of American professional
boxers to enlist for government
service during the war and the de-
lirious efforts made by many to
claim exemptions.
A roll call for the top notchers
in the American rings fails TO show
one name recorded in actual serv-
ice. Several have evaded the is
sue by enlisting as boxing instruc-
tors at army camps lat pretty good
salaries it may be guessed) but
when it comes to active duty, there
has been positively nothing doing.
The war has taken a number Of
second raters, il is true and a large
number of so-called pork and bean
ers enlisted voluntarily before be-
ing called by the draft.
All of which is merely a prelim-
mary to a short dispatch from a
which recently reached America.
''Of scores of men who formerly
made their living by boxing only
ten remain in Australia. The others
are all with their regiments at the
'front.' VI tnls Ten seven are mar
ried and have dependents. This
does not include preliminary box
ers. Australian sportsmen formed a
committee several months ago TO
send 1000 athletes to France. Box
ing arenas were turned over TO this
committee as recruiting stations"
Quite a difference in the attitude
OF Australian and American boxers,
according to this. And il must be
remembered that there is no con-
scription in Australia
Tom Andrews latest boxing rec
ord lists some eighty American box
ers within the draft age. OF this
number but four are in active serv-
ice. This, of course, does not in
clude those who are serving as box
ing instructors.

the foremost positions in the entire
industry.
"The claim that Chandler leader
ship is wholly due to legitimate rea-
sons can be Justified, not in a boast
full way, but as simple statement
which thousands of discriminating
motorists have determined. The
Chandler was the first high
grade six-cylinder car manufactured
to sell for less than $4,000. 1t was
brought out at time when men in
the trade and out of the trade con-
sidered it folly to think of high
grade six being possible for such a
price. But the Chandler proved that
this was possible, and its users the
world over have been convinced that
it is properly designed, gives all the
powder and flexibility of power that
any motor can give, that it has all
the desired life and snap and 60 and
in addition offers genuine economy
in operation.
"The motor is the dominant feature
of the Chandler car, of course, Own
ers have named it the marvellous mo-
tor. but the Chandler is not simply
motor with car built around it.
The complete harmony Of every de-
tail of construction, the perfect unity
of the whole car. impresses even
casual observer. The motor is mount
ed on a splendid chassis and on this
chassis the purchaser may have the
choice of an equally fine body in a
number of various fine types"

H. n. MABERY OUTLINES
PROGRESS OF SAVAGE co.

H. N. Mabery, elected secretary and
treasurer of the Savage Tire Corpo-
ration, at a recent meeting of the
board of directors, quoted some fig
ures a few days ago that emphasized
the rapid progress the Savage con-
Germ has made.
According to Mr.. Mabery, less than
two years ago. when he became iden-
rifed with the Savage Company, the
maximum daily output was approx
mately rs tires. At the present time
between 600 and 700 tires and about
the same number of Savage Grafinite
tubes are built every working day.
This big increase in output was not
brought about by laying stress on
rapid work or by cutting quality, but
by departmentizing the factory and
systematizing the work. Factory
space has been added and the me-
chanical equipment increased during
the last two years, but the increase

100000 EUROPEAN
CARS ARE ARMORED

There are at the present tine about
100000 armored cars in Europe, many
of which were designed ~ civilians.
Many ideas have been wroked out
successfully by the European gove.'l-
ments. For instance, one of the fel-
ligerent countries is now working on
an aeroplane with invisible plares.
the material in the planes being a
special preparation containing the
strength and rigidity Of the canvas
now in use and being transparent.
Another suggestion, and, by the way,
by an American, is the present use
of floats on the German dirigibles for
use on the water.
Imperial Valley press., 1917-03-17

in factory output is probably due to
more efficient factory methods than
to any one thing. Savage Tires to-
day are high quality tires and this
high standard is assured by the pres
ent efficient methods of production
and inspection employed.
Two years ago rs Savage tires
per day was about all that the
trade demanded. Now, on account OF
the high standard, quality and salts
faction given, 700 tires per day will
not supply the demand. The orders

MUST HAVE QUALITY
TO Be MARKET TABLE

There is a remarkable difference
in the manner in which the public re-
ceives motor cars. Some factories
that have been marketing their pro-
more have had a hard and doubtful
battle to establish themselves as quail
ity builders. There may be nothing
at all that can be attributed as the
particular fault of the car, but it
has simply not made hit, and, ac-
cording to H. F. O'Byrne of the To-
cal Chalmers agency, that is what is
necessary nowadays, unless the car
is exceptionally high priced and in
tended only for an ultra exclusive eli
entele.
"The tremendous growth of the
Chandler Motor Car Company may be
cited as an example of car that
finds immediate acceptance by the
public, adds to its prestige year by
year, new suffers an off year, and
quickly establishes itself as front
rank car" says Mr.. O'Bryne. -Four
years ago this season the Chandler
was just announced. Three years ago
it was On infant in the industry.
Two years ago it was a very much
talked about car, and the demand
could not be supplied. Last year the
Chalmers established itself very

and more than 1000 distributors in

Mr.. Mabery states that this big de-
mand will be supplied. The factory
is now working sixteen hours day,
employing two shifts, and, according
to Mr.. Mabery. a third shift will be
put to work within the next sixty
days, which will increase the output
at the Savage plant to more than 1000
tires per day.
