ASK KELLY RETAINED
AS \, s. PRINCIPAL

A petition has been circulated among
the Day Dogers of Earlham college
who were former students at the Rich
mond high school, asking that B. w.
Kelly, who is now acting as principal
of the high school, be retained in that
capacity next year. Mr.. Kelly, who
was former head of the science depart.
ment of the high school, was put in
the position as principal of the high
school when J. H. Bentley, former
principal, was made superintendent OF
schools, after the resignation of J. T.
Giles.
Mr. Kelley, according to the opinion
of those signing the petition, has
shown efficiency in the position and
has gained the admiration of the
students and teachers of the school,
end is the logical man for the place.
The petition signed by former high
school students is as follows:
protesting against any further ex-
Fermentation as regards the office
of the principal of the Richmond high
school and believing in the absolute
fitness of Benjamin W. Kelly for the
position, we the undersigned, repre-
senting the alumni of Richmond high
school, desire to add our support to
the petitions already signed by the
faculty and students OF the high
school in respectfully requesting the
school board to retain Benjamin w.
Kelly as acting principal Of the Rich
mond high school for the coming
year."
The petition will be sent to members
of the high school alumni outside of
Earlham and then sent to the school
board.
Such a petition also was signed and
circulated by members of the high
school faculty.

the way Of established precedent to fol-
low, theory dominated practice In al
most every branch Of motor engineer
ing.
In consequence during the years that
followed the engineers busted them
selves in experimenting with different
types OF design in an effort to over
come the difficulties that are always
encountered when new and complicated
~meehanisms are built for public use.
A few years late when the possibili-
I ties of the motor car began to be dimly
realized and when Buick activities
were being directed to the development
OF motor cars, Walter l.. MARI cast his
lot with Buick.
Unlike many OF the designers OF that
time, Mr.. MARI believed in sticking to
the one type until he had really proven
TO his own satisfaction that the the
cries which appeared to him to be cor
rect were either right or wrong.
Mr.. Mari was a staunch advocate of
the valve-in-head type, because its sim
plicity was backed by all that was then
known of thermal efficiency, and formed
a more logical basis for development
work than other types.
After "A time he was Joined by r.. A,
Waters, These two men have been
designing Buick cars for years and are
without question the leading authori-
ties on vaive-in-head motor construc-
ton in the automotive engineering fra
ternity.
Together they have experimented with
practically every known type Of inter
nal combustion motor, and the small
engineering laboratory In which they
first started to work has now grown
10 far greater proportions than those OF
the Whole Buick factory Mt that time.
The development is stil going on
and the possibilities OF the valve-in-
head design have not yet been exhaust
ed. IN Mr.. Mars opinion there Ia no
possible n,eans Of telling when perfec-
ton In this type of motor has been
reached.
THE point is he said. that each
succeeding year finds a number OF i'm
motor, This IL because Of the ceaseless
research work that we are carrying on.
The Buick motors in the cars we are
now building are, the best motors we
know how to build today. Yet | have
no doubt that the coming years will
bring about other improvements, be-
cause the field IL such an ~inexhaustible
one in which to work that for years we
have found sone means each season OF
making our motors more powerful.

there would never be any better lype

products.
81 think this illustrates the folly OF
claiming that any product Is the last
word in design or construction.
THE only guide WI have-we who
live In the presents a just compari-
son with similar products now being
marketed,
"Our engineering Ia laboratories are
equipped with every kind Of scientific
apparatus for making accurate com
PARSONS us far as different types oil
motor car units are concerned, and
from the results Of our tests we are
satisfied that there is no other motor
built that can equal the Buick valve
in-head motor in power. economy and
general all-round efficiency.
1T has taken us a long time to de-
velop the Buick motor to its present
state Of efficiency, and II should be re-
membered that through all those years
we have concentrated on the ~valve-in-
head type. IT has not been a hit-or-
miss proposition with US, or a shifting
from one type 10 another, but a steady
DEVELOPMENT with a definite principle
OF design as the central point"
Concurrent with the development OF
the car along the lines mentioned above
by Mr., Mari have been the steady in.
crease in Buick popularity among mo-
torists End the equally steady growth
Of the factory itself. And thase two
big facts have been made possible only
through the satisfaction that Buick
cars have given to Buick owners. The
Buick valve-in-head motor has literally
performed its way into the lasting favor
Of owners in all parts Of the world.
Season after season finds Buick own
ers replacing their older Buick models
with new Bucks, and the loyalty OF
Buick owners has had its continued e.
feet In bringing new Buick owners into
the fold every year.
1t Il literally true that for a great
many years II has never been possible
TO build enough Buick cars TO supply
