Series Is Studebaker is able to with
stand any sort of hard driving to which
it may be subjected.
Fighting its way through soft snow
and over roads which were practically
washed away, the Studebaker behaved
beautifully, according to the statement
of the boys in charge Of the trip. Any
one who is accustomed to mountain
driving can well appreciate what the
crew and the car had to 60 through.
Under ordinary conditions when the
roads are in fine shape and the wealth
er is perfect, the trip into the Yosem-
lite valley via the Coulterville road is
one which requires careful driving.
When this narrow mountain road il
banked with snow and in spots has no
bottom. owing to, the soft mud, It takes
staunch car and q nervy crew to
reach the valley.
1t has been great fight each year
to see who could master the huge snow
drifts first and the honor has fallen
on Studebaker for the fourth consecu-
tive year. The trip this year was made
more difficult due to the extremely
heavy fall Of snow, which is the heayi-
est on record in the Yosemite region.

Electrical Engineer Reads
Interesting Paper on Fea-

Used in the Owen Mag

APPLIED TO VARIOUS
TYPES OF VEHICLES
Owners Speak With Enthu-
siasm of the Big Tire
Mileage Obtained-Prob-
lem Which Has Bothered
Makers for Years Solved.

Walter S. Coll, an electric engineer
Of the Fort Wayne plant of the Gen
eral Electric company, in charge of the
manufacture of the Entz transmission
used in Owen Magnetic cars, read an
interesting paper before the members
of the Society of Automobile Engineers,
at the Automobile Club Of America in
New York on 1.-The Advantages of the
Use of the Entz Transmission in Auto
mobiles"
Mr.. Coll, in general way, discussed
the functions, advantages and limita-
tons of the steam and gasoline motors
and explained the many advantages
possessed by Owen Magnetic cars
through the use of the Entz transmits
sion over cars using steam or the ordi-
nary type of gasoline motors.
unlike the steam engine" said Mr..
Coll, 1.-The torque of a gasoline engine
can be varied widely only by throttle
control, and it has no overload capac-
ity. 1t may be considered as having
only an instantaneous CUTOFF, since
the maximum pressure following igni-
ton is practically instantaneous, aft
err which the pressure on the piston for
the balance of its stroke is q rapidly
decreasing one. resulting only from the
expanding gases filling an increasing
volume developed by the movement of
the piston.
BELOW INITIAL PRESSURE.
1.-THE mean effective pressure is
therefore. considerably below the in
1tial pressure and there rs no known
way to bring the mean effective up to
or near the initial pressure. Contrast
this with the steam engine operating
at three quarter or seven-eighth cut
off in which the mean effective pres
sure is very nearly to the initial or
boiler pressure. Furthermore, the tor
que Of the gasoline engine frequently
falls off materially at low speeds and
1t Is necessary therefore in order to
meet the widely varying demand Of
traction work to provide some means
of delivery to the road wheel torque
several times that developed by the en-
CINE and Of varying this torque ratio.
In addition, since the gasoline en-
CINE will not start itself, and therefore
must be allowed to stand idle when the
car is stopped momentarily in traffic,
means must be provided for discon-
Meeting the engine from the driving
mechanism of the car.
AN OLD PROBLEM.

PEELED vehicle was built engineers have

tary and sliding gears, not to mention

we'll as pneumatic and electric gear
shifts, have been devised, none of
which, however, seems to have fully

Some years ago J. B. Entx, an cleo
trical engineer and inventor Of wide
experience, conceived the idea of mag
netic transmission for automobiles,
realizing as he did the great power and
at the same time the ease of control
and flexibility of tho attractive force

I'm fundamental principle the origi-
nal design was essentially the same

cessfully applied at that time to va

pleasure cars and trucks, some Of
which are operating today after 170,-
900 or 10000 miles Of service"
Mr.. Coll in discussing the many ad-
vantages and economies of car
equipped with the Entz transmission,
called attention to the fact that in
asmuch as none of the power i'm
pulses of the engine were transmitted
to the rear wheels, q great saving was
effected on the tires, and many Of the
owners Of the Owen Magnetic cars
spoke with enthusiasm Of the great tire
mileage they obtained.
