DOOM CUT OUT;
IT IS TOO NOISY
National Chamber Unanimous
for Its Elimination in

AS the use of muffler cutouts is be-
coming a nuisance, the members OF
the National Automobile Chamber OF
Commerce have voted unanimously
for their elimination on the cars tacy
build in future, so tar as they can
be operated from the drivers seat.
With more than 100000 cars in
use and supplying great service in
the. transportation of the individual
and of materials, the use of the NUT
fler cutouts is unfair to the public
and adds an unnecessary noise TO
American lite. Cars have ample power
so that the slight increase in spee2
which may come from the use OF
cutouts OF of no Importance There
may be times, in adjusting motors,
where cutout is useful, out in sucn
cases it can be operated from uhder
the car. ...
Almost half of the ITO makers in the
chamber do net tit muffler cutouts to
their present. cars and all makers
voted that they should be eliminated
in the new products. The directors
at their meeting in New YORK adopt.
ed the following resolution:

Judging from the various major
and minor league baseball schedules
made public to date there Is to be
little change in the general playing
scheme for the season of 1917. A
majority of the leagues have selected
opening and closing dates which cor
respond closely TO those OF the past
few years.
The chief changes are to be found
In the scfe1"iac 70 the International
and the American association. In
round figures the two organizations
have cut six weeks off their regular
seasons in order to provide dates for
the inter-league series of forty-eight
games to be played at the close of the
pennant races in the two associations.
The National and American leagues
will open on Wednesday. April IL, and
close on Thursday, October 4, which
will permit the initial game of the
worlds series being played on Satur-
day. October 6, IL Eastern and West
ern teams are competitors, or Mon
day. October 8. in case the sores
proves to be an inter sectional con-
test. In other respects there are few
novelties, the Pacific Coast league
having the longest season while one
or more OF the class d leagues will
stage the shortest pennant races. The
list OF opening and losing days as
announced to date from official and
semi official sources are as follows:
