NO WASTE CLAIMED ON STUDEbAKER SIX
 NEW O|L|NC SYSTEM

In the more or less hurried survey of the many makes and types of motor cars exhibited at various automobile shows, it is invariably the rule that many of the most important features of construction are overlooked. Either this, or insufficient thought and con- sideration is given the particular inn provement being exploited.
 The beautiful lines and mechanical excellence of the rev series 19 Stude baker cars attracted countless show visitors to the Studebaker booth wherever these news cars were exhi- bited. And, because they are entirely new cars in a season when new cars are rare, many an interested motorist found his visit altogether too short to analyze and give each new or per fected mechanical point a thorough study. Now, however, with the cars in production and being delivered to dealers throughout the country, the importance of each Sudebaker feature of construction is being carefully con- sidered on the salesroom f!0or, and on the road.
 Perhaps no single feature of opera tion has attracted more attention or evinced more favorable comment than
 
 indeed, worthy of the most minute scrutiny by the intending automobile purchaser-and for those motorwise folk who know that proper fabrication is the secret of the successful opera tion of any fine piece of machinery.
 For a greater surety the new series 19 Studebaker motors are fabricated by what is known as a duplex system. That is, besides the usual splash lubri- cation, additional oil IS delivered under pressure from a distributor pipe to all crankshaft and camshaft bearings. | The gear pump, driven from the cam shaft, draws it's oil through a large l cylindrical strainer accessibly located 1 in the bottom of the engine pan. Stude- ! baker engineers have so designed and l perfected this pump that it can never ! lose prime.
 The oil leaves the pump under ] pressure and passes to the horizontal l distributor pipe. From this, part of the oil is fed directly to the camshaft bearings, and by means of radisl holes l through the camshaft bearings it is fed
 into troughs. from which it flows di-
 rectly into the main crankshaft bear 1 ing oil pockets. Through additional i holes in the distributor pipe. oil is cor fl tlHuOuSly leu to the connecting fOQ Q!p \ troushs, and to the timing gears.
 To those motorists who are familiar
 with the mechanical details of their
 cars, it will readily be seen that these 1 new Studebaker cars are really pro- l vided with two automatic systems | either of which is thoroughly depend I able. And with this method of lubri-
 cation there is never any waste of oil
 Another feature of the fabrication | system of these cars is the use of oil
 cups throughout. Experience has proven that oil cups. with wiclls, pro-
 vide more positive fabrication. anc I consequently Studebaker engineer: have given special attention to this I point. All oil cups are placed in tho
 most accessible positions. Two oil cup. I instead of one are placed on the steer . ing knuckles and other cups are pro | vided on each end of the cross con. } meeting rod. Specially packed cups however, are placed in the inaccessi ble points, giving proper fabrication :. for long periods and protecting tn, : owner against hls own forgetfulness O. :, oversight.
