OVERLAND SETS NEW
AUSTRALIAN RECORD

A four cylinder Overland touring
car has established a new record in
West Australia, covering the 23s
miles from Albany to Armadale in
5 hours and 25 minutes. This is. 10
minutes faster than the best previous
record, set by a "six" of larger
wheelbase and supposedly greater
power, in April, 1916
The driver of the Overland car,
c. ]. Lewis, held the record for the
trip for long time, when in 1915
he negotiated the route in hours
and 80 minutes.
The trip was made in Australian
midsummer, over huge sand plains,
spoon drains, humpbacks and
through jungles, where sometimes
the road was only winding foot
path.
The average speed for the trip
was 1924 miles &c miles per hour
faster than the previous record.
This machine removes "a pounds
of cast iron in 20 different oper-
ations on a flywheel, in less than Is
minutes.
The workman sets in the rough
flywheel, which is held in place by
air pressure, and pulls lever. The
machine automatically adjusts nine
sets of tools in turn. Every tool is
fixed so that there can be no mis-
take in the trimming of the fly,
wheels. Each; one is cut. accurately
to the very last scraping. - p.

To Box Carpenter

CHICAGO, H., Aug. 25.-Mlke Glib
hons. the st. Paul phantom, offered to-
day to box Georges Carpenter, the
French champion, series Of bouts IN
this country and Canada, every cent
of the receipts to go TO the Red Cross.
Carpenter is on his way to this
country. 1t was announced this week

mistake. He is on the seas and VIII

ers. who accompany him-to stimulate
interest in aviation. 70 boost enlist
ments in the air corps and to aid the
French Red Cross Fund.
Gibbons proposes that he and Car

cities in this country and Canada, the
tour to be in charge Of Red Cross
representatives and the money to be
divided equally between the French
and the American Rcd Cross.
