Barney 0IdfieId Out to
Lower Some Worlds Records

New speedway records now depend
as much on the efficiency Of tire maxi
ers as on the automobile manufactur-
ers, according to Barney Oldheld.
During the last FIVE years Oldheld
has taken part in few contest events,
devoting his efforts to time trials and
exhibition driving. This year, how
ever, he intends to take an active
part in all the big auto races. He
is working out daily on the speedway
in Cincinnati in preparation for the
Memorial day contest in that city.
Oldfeld will pilot a new type OF
racing car this year. The design is his
own and he is OF the belief that it
will revolutionize the racing game.
The new racer has an enclosed
body, built like an egg shell: Driver
and his mechanician will be protected
from injury. by track accidents, while
the shape of the body will give the
minimum II wind resistance, which
is one Of the greatest causes of
power loss in racing. The new car
is built of aluminium, its roof being
trussed and all joints reinforced by
oxide welding. The engine was built
especially for the car, which Is ex-
ceptionally light when compared with
the weight Of other racing machines.
With his Firestone equipment and his
new machine Oldheld this year ex-
poets to lower several worlds records.

Many Improvements Made
In the Pullman Motor Cal

Fourteen years is not long time,
hut it seems like ages when one con-
yiders the improvement made by the
Pullman motor car in those years,
according to F. E. Miller OF the T..
G.. Nerthwall company OF Omaha,
representative of the Pullman line.
although the average motorist
would be inclined to laugh were he
to see one OF the first models OF the
Pullman, coming down the road, it
wasn't bad car at that, as cars went
in those days.
about 1908, the six-wheel trucks
for railroad coaches started to come
into prominence and the Pullman
company began to adopt them for
its sleeping coaches. The idea of the
easier riding caused by the six-wheel
carrying truck OF Pullman passen-
ger coach appealed to the designers
Of this six-wheel automobile, and so
they christened the motor car the
Pullman. .t.
Eight of these cars were built be-
fore the uselessness Of the extra set
OF wheels became evident and the
same chassis was mounted on four
wheels. From that time on the growth
OF the Pullman company has been
slow but steady and regular each year
increasing the output OF their cars to
meet the growing demand and bring
ing out type that was always
abreast OF leaders in new ideas and
designs"

Thousand Flags Fly in and
About the Franklin Factory

The Franklin Automobile company
OF Syracuse. N. Y, has held thirty
two patriotic meetings, unfurling one
flag at least, made in true Betsy
Ross" fashion. {,
Evidence OF patriotic spirit has
been manifest among the 1850 en-
ployes of the company, and the idea
OF show your colors" has resulted
in big demand for flags from all
departments and buildings.
The experimental and woodshop
delegation had no success in attempts
to secure the kind of flag planned for
its ffty-foot pole. Members pur-
chased material and had flag, ten
by twelve feet in size, made in the
trim shop of the factory, This was
not enough to satisfy the men Of
this department, so the woodworkers.
who had contributed largely towards
the flag, made special case for the
reception of Old Glory after sunset.
1t Is estimated that fully 1000 flags
have been placed in conspicuous
places inside and outside OF the
Franklin works, all the result of con-
tributions from the workers, fully so
per cent of whom are men OF foreign
parentage and rs per cent Of foreign
birth.

CHAL. .NERS STOCK
CAR Is USED BY
DAWSON IN RACE
Burns Up the Track at 0rmond-
Daytona Beach, Laying
the Vanderbilt Record
Away in the Shade.

In 1916 at the Ormond-Daytona
beach races Willie X. Vanderbilt,
with his Mercedes car, rated at that
time at ninety horsepower, did a mile
in SO seconds.
Joe Dawson in a Chalmers stock
car May 4 this year on the Allan
tic beach did the mile in 38,l Sec
onds, or nine-tenths Of second faster
than Mr.. Vanderbilt accomplished
with his Mercedes Of the earlier days.
Dawson's drive was accomplished in
seven attempts, the last being his
best. Five Of these attempts we're
all lower than the time Of Mr., Van
derbilt in 1906. Dawson had no ia
vorable wind and his car was stock
machine, less only the fan.
Great News Iitem.
The car OF Mr.. Vanderbilt was Of
about 600 cubic inches displacement,
while the motor Of the Chalmers car
shows but 224 cubic inches. The
weight of the Mercedes was more
than 1000 pounds, while the Chalmers
will weigh not over 200 pounds.
When Vanderbilt placed the rec
ord at SO seconds before the world
officially 1t was the greatest item Of
news Of the day and commanded
front page positions on papers all
over the world. Europe would not
credit the record and insisted that
the Florida air had affected the
American watches. Europe positively
refused to accept the record and an
international controversy, which
lasted many years, arose.
Excites Great Interest.
Dawson's drive has excited world
wide interest also and yet the peo.
pie Of the world will hardly be as
excited by his wonderful drive at a
speed of nearly ninty-fve miles an
hour as was the case when Vander-
bilt did his mile in 3d.
At the time of the Vanderbilt drive
hnudreds Of press men rushed to him
and one OF the most frequent inquiries
was regarding his ability to hold his
car to the beach at the speed he
made. Dawson with car of less
than half the weight caused no such
excitement. The drive of Dawson
aroused in the mind OF Fred Wag-
ner, the official starter; Joe Tracy,
official representative of the Ameri-
can Automobile association; Prof. R.
A. Leavell of Iowa state college, the
official timer, who handled the cleo
trical instrument, and of numerous
Jacksonville tradesmen who wit
messed the drive thoughts Of ear.

Cushion Tires Work Well
When Making Long Trip

Although tire and car manuiac-
turers recommend only pneumatic
tires on touring cars, not few mo.
torists, driving the smaller cars and
yearning to eliminate all possibility
Of punctures, have successfully used
cushion tires, particularly on rear
wheels. On long tours their use has
in many instances proved both COM
Portable and economical. The latest
example OF this use OF Goodyear
Motz cushion equipment comes from
Clarence E. Horton, motorists of
Buffalo, N. Y, who is touring from
that city to Los Angeles in Ford.

Gossip
Along the
Automobile Row

"The Pierce street knob, we'll
known to Omaha motorists, holds no
terrors for the Dorris," asserts H. H.
Cannon, district representative of the
Doris Motor Car company, and
straightway he proved it. Starting at
the bottom of Eleventh street the
Doris climbed in "low" straight up
to Tenth street and then without a
murmur continued over the knob.
This is long, hard pull and is a good
demonstration of power, particularly
when it is done without a hitch, as
the Doris does it.
Announcement was made last week
of another garage for Omaha, to be
