HOT AIR
THAT'S WHAT

About this time Of every years. &C
cording to Z. G. Millhoff. sales manager
of Miller tires it is difficult to pick VI
a newspaper or motor magazine without
seeing therein advice to the effect that
air should be let out Of tires because the
heat of the SIN expands the air suffi-
GENTLY to cause them to blow out.
II don't know who is responsible for
his misleading advice" said Millhon,
but it appears regularly and o n sched-
u1e time every summer
It's dangerous and expensive advice
to follow. The motorist who unthink-
ingly falls for it and drives his tires
with reduced air pressure is simply
wasting good money and running up his
tire bill.
While It il true that the sun heat
causes the air TO expand and thereby in
crease the air pressure this increase is
SO slight as to be negligible.
cit is human nature to desire comfort.
Soft tires insure comfortable riding and
1t is a constant tempertation to drive
cars with tires pumped up below the
pressure recommended by the tire manu-
facturer.
But, when tires are driven too soft q
hinge or bending action is set up IN the
SD walls. And Just as q wire can be

IL down. thus ending the game in the
Harbor's favor. Plymouth had Koepp-

one else Monday. so he pitched both
games.
Kroupa caught both games for the
Harbor. working his best both games.
Morris played good ball being shifted
from short to outheld. making several
good catches and using the stick. Full
ly 1000 people witnessed each game
and were all pleased shaking hands
with the boys before they left and also
asked them Jack in three weeks. This

EAST CHICAGO. IND, Sept. s.
That lean and hungry look" which has
besmirched the noble -countenances OF
certain Twin City athletes for the past
few weeks will soon be completely
obliterated.
The reason Is this; the East Chicago
Gohphers. lightweight champions of In
diana and strong c~ontenders for middle
western honors in the 155-140 pound
division. have decided to r~eQrganize for
the 1917 season. To attain this end a
meeting has been called for Saturday
night at which important business will
be transacted. Incidentally officers
will be elected for the coming year. All
members OF the 1915 eleven awarded
sweaters will be eligible to attend.
The Gophers lost seven Of their best
players via the army and navy route.
Despite this the maroon and gray ex-
pect to put a team on the field which
will give any eleven in or around h
cago a hard battle for premier honors,
realizing that they will not be the only
squad minus the stars Of a year age.
