SUGGESTS FOOTBALL

Colleges Will Raise Money by Series of
Matches During the
Season

NEW YORK, Aug S,--While nothing was
said at the conference of the National Col

there is definite idea that football in the
fan will be employed in some way or other
TO raise funds for patriotic purposes
one suggestion is that a post-scason series

or "All-America" players he played There
may be no doubt that games of the sort
would prove attractive and reap a rich
harvest OF money.

SECRET MARKINGS
PLANNED FOR AUTOS

San Francisco, Sept 22.-Secret
marking Of automobile as a guard
against thefts has been decided upon
in completing a system Of identifi-
cation in California The plan is 10
be nut into effect as soon as the de-
tails can be worked out.
August Vollmar, chief Of police Of
Berkley, has been appointed chairman
OF a committee to carry on the work
BY the state bureau Of Identification
for automobiles.
The proposed plan is for each auto
mobile owner to register a secret mark
on his car with the state bureau This
is not TO be compulsory, but IT is eN-
pected those complying with the ar
rangement will profit by reduced in
surance against theft
Police authorities in all California
towns and cities will be provided with
copies Of the secret mark register. Be
cause Of the secret marks detectives
believe that it viii be virtually I'M
possible for thieves to disguise stolen
automobiles so that they cannot be
Identified.

HAVE CONF 0RT
ON LONG TRIP
Some Good Advice Is Given
to Motorists on Care Of
Self and Car.

Living comfortably while on long
tours has become an art" declares Ben
T. Mckenzie, Of the TolteIk Motor
company. IN q notebook kept by our
service department there have been
jotted down hints gathered from ex-
Perienced automobile tourists. They all
viii come In handy at some time when
taking any long tour. Here they are:
Don't wear wool next the skin.
Wear linen or cotton underneath.
Don't wait until the gasoline Is al
most gone before filling up.
Don't allow the water can 10 be
other than full Of fresh water, and
iii it whenever you get the chance.
Don't fail TO have warm clothing
in the outfit The high attitudes are
cold and the dry air Is penetrating.
Don't carry loaded firearms in the
car.
Don't fail to put out your camp fire
when leaving.
Don't forget the goggles.
Don't forget the camphor ice
Don't build big fire for cooking
the smaller the better.
Don't ford water without first
Wading through It
Don't drive over the desert Is miles
Per hour The unexpected small, dry
WashOuts will break springs.
Don't carry good clothes-ship
them
Don't drink aIkaH water-serious
cramps result.
Don't wear new shoes"

GARRETT DOES NOT LOOK
FOR GASOLINE SHORTAGE

There isn't another man in the
country more anxious to do MS DIX
and help Uncle sam win this war tnan
myself says f J. Garrett OF the
Studebaker. but IL does rile me con-
siderably to read and listen TO all
this hysterical talk Of gasoline con-
serVatiOn. Conservation seems to be
the watchword Of the day now
everything is being HOOveriZed- sure,
it's a good thing TO eliminate waste
in our daily life-it must be done If
we are going TO win the war-but
let's be sensible about It
The suggestion that motor car
pleasure riding be discontinued or
very largely curtailed, as a means or
conserving the gasoline supply, IS as
ill-advised as IL is lndefenslble- Il
comes from no source OF authority
nor does it carry the weight of con-
viction. II is wholly in line with the
now discredited, untenable tendency
10 place motor cars in the class Of
luNuries that can be dispensed with
But don't misunderstood me
heartily agree that this is the time

gasoline most assuredly will tend TO
make available for war purposes.

supply. But there Is nothing what
ever in the present situation that
warrants the belief that there viii
be a shortage Of gasoline The ma
tionaI chamber Of commerce, an assO-
citation Of undisputed authority in all
matters pertaining to the automobile,
bears me out in this assertion
'Incalculable harm can be done by
creating a false impression in this
direction. The reasonable use OF
motor car is not an eXtrava gance IN
any sense Of the word. 1t is part
OF the sane. healthful, outdoor life
Of every community. To eliminate the
motor car from the daily routine Of
the American family at this time
would do more harm than good When
the situation becomes so strained, If
il really ever does, that larger con-
serTatioa Of gasoline is necessary, We
doubtless shall be 80 advised by
sources, the authority OF which can
not be questioned"
