HARD GAME.
Albion Has Best Team in Years for
Alma Game Here Saturday.

When the Maroon and Cream
stacks up against Albion college Sat
urday she will meet one of the best
that Albion college has had in years,
team without question superior to
the one with which Albion won the
championship two years ago, after
Albion tied at and Z.
Coach Kennedy is reported to al
ready have visions Of victory over
the heavy and fast Alma college
eleven. and it is certain that Alma
will have a hard game on her hands
if she is to win this important Michi-
gan intercollegiate bout from the
Methodists. Albion has a number of
good veterans back this year, and
luckily secured a bunch Of new men
of high class from her freshman class.
She is strong. to say the least.
The Alma fans have high hopes for
q victory. because Of the good show
ing Of the Maroon and Cream this
wear. but are worried for fear that
the team may have gone back through
being idle last Saturday. when 1t
should have been playing. They are
looking forward to hard game,
however, even though the Alma team
comes out on the top Of the heap.
This will be the last Michigan inter
collegiate football game on the home
field this year, the rest, with Olivet
and Kalamazoo, being billed away
from home. and il promises to be
game well worth the viewing. The
game will be called at 2:30 p. m.
Next week Alma meets the Michi-
gan Normal college eleven on the To-
cal field, but this game will not be an
NJ. /. A. A. championship bout.

ALMA DEFEATED.


Coach kimbalPs Alma high school

OF the present football season Satur-

went down before the heavy and fast
Arthur Hill gridders at Saginaw to
the tune of IL to 0.
kimball's youngsters put up a great
scrap, better than the score indicates,
and several times blocked seemingly
sure touchdowns At times during
the game the Hillites walked down
the field with the Orange and Black
until within the shadow Of the Alma
goal, but time and again Alma re-
PEELED these attacks and turned back

nav touchdowns came Immediately
after one Of these attacks had failed

Emergency Rim Expander.

1t is generally understood nowadays
that wheels which are out of align
ment cause undue tire wear. Few
owners, however. realize that rims
which are loose or otherwise impro-
perly mounted will have the same ef-
feet of causing excessively rapid tread
wear. A loose rim generally makes
its presence known by a clicking or
sQueaking sound. This Is not always
so, for occasionally a small stone or
some sand may get between the rim
and felloe so as to prevent noise. The
rim appears to be tight but in reality
is running out of alignment and wear
ing out the tire.
Descending Grades.
In driving down steep grades vari-
Gus resistences may be utilized to
keep the car under control. II the
engine is kept running and the gears
are in high, there is only slight resist
ance. This may be increased by shift
ing into second speed and further in
creased by shifting into first. When
still further resistance is needed to
maintain a check on the progress Of
the car and it is not desired to use
the bakes, the Ignition may be shut
OF and the throttle closed. BY open
ing the throttle the resistance is still
further increased. The maximum of
resistance and the best control on a
dangerously steep hill may be obtain
ed by shifting into first, switching of
the ignition and applying the brakes
at intervals.
Clutch Troubles.
A great deal of clutch trouble for
which the owner can find no obvious
cause, is due to the fact that the
clutch shaft is out Of true with the CEN
ter of the fywheel. This causes one
side of the. cone clutch to bind, while
the other side is free; in the case of
the disc clutch. the plates tend to hold
only on one side. The result is that
the cluch grabs when engaged. If per-
sistent treatment and adjustment does

PRACTICAL PARAGRAPHS
For Everybody Who Owns an Automobile

not help a clutch, 1t is safe to conclude
that the condition mentioned is caus-
ing the trouble.
On Upholstery.
The glossy finished leather-sub-
stitute upholstery is better than the
duh finished, the latter being prone to
crack or lose its coloring material
through friction. Use of the dull ma
terial brings sort of half-glossy
finish and the cracking ceases. but it
is better to get the bright finish in
the first place.
when Fuses Blow.
When lighting fuses blow out one
after the other. it does not pay to
keep replacing them; it is something
more than coincidence. Try to find
out the cause and the first place TO
lcok is in the cut-out. II this portion
of the lighting system is of the type
that has points which may become
stuck. it is very likely to cause con-
tinued fuse breakage.
The Storage Battery.
After storage battery is fifteen
months old the dealer considers II
worthless. The fact that the battery
has such a comparatively brief life
at best, should lead owners to give n
careful treatment so as to get maxi
mum service from it. Adding dis
titled water to the cells TO bring the
fluid up to the proper level. should
be done once a week in summer and
twice a month in winter. But this is
not enough; the gravity of the solu-
tion may not be correct. A hydro
meter syringe test is the only sure
method of determining the condition
of the battery and If the cells show
below 10 each. they require recharg-
ing. Once every two months the bat
terry should be taken to the service
station for charging. especially # the
user is a doctor or one similarly oc-
Cupied, whose car is started and
stopped many times each day.
Fitting Parts.
1t is just as bad to have parts fit too
tightly as it is to have them too loose.

EXPLOSIVE BULLETS.

Of the Russians say the order to fire
explosive bullets from aeroplanes has

this be true, it gives the Teutons a

One popularity OF the test Of in
terest is that the speedway is meas
ured three feet from the pole. Ow-
ing to the speed at which the Chal-
mers travelled its orbit was nearer
the top rail than the bottom of the
track so that it is safe to say that
the car actually travelled over l,s4V
