RALPH DE PALMA ID . RUN IN B|G RACES
 AT INDIANAPOLIS
Noted Speed King Enters Mile Chase for Purse of S50,000-To Drive
 Packard

Indianapolis, April 12.-Ralph De Palma, worlds speed king. has entered the 50o-mile Liberty sweepstakes at Indianapolis May 31. The premier driver in the American racing game will start in the chase for s50,000 in gold in the 12-cylinder Packard racer that he has used with great success pn the speedways the past two seasons and which has as many records to its credit as a chameleon has colors.
 This will be the sixth 5o0-mile race that De Palma has entered at Indian apolis and the third time that he has named an American-made car. In the 1911 event he drove a Simplex to sixth place, in 1913 his Mercer failed earIy in the race, his only starts with Yankee racers. In the 1912 race his Mercedes fa1tered with two laps to go to victory; in 1914 his Mercedes did not start, being damaged in qualifg- Ing, while in 1915 he scored a victory in the last 500-mile with the Grand 1prix Mercedes
 However, this American car has proved it's metal in two seasons of rac- ing and scored it's most spectacular win last August on the Sheepshead d Bay speedway, when it's Italian pilot but it over the jumps for five vic- tories in five starts. In the days rac- ing it won the ?. 10, 20 so and 50-miie races and set new worlds records for the ., 10, 30 and 50-mile marks in com petition. That the car has speed is 1hown by it's average of ill miles ar 1our in the 10-mile event. Also De Palma scored his victories over a field If Americas best. trimming Ralph T,t1f louis Chevrolet and Ira Vail.
 At the close of the 1917 season De Palma spent almost month at the SheepShead Bay track hanging up new Honcompetitive records for the one Hour, 10-mile. six hours and all dis thnces from 10 to 500 miles.
 In establishing a new hour record De Palma took the laurels from Jean Ghassagne and the 12-cylinder Sun 107 miles, 1260 yards on the Brook 1hnds speedway in England in 1910. De Palma and the Packard made 109 miles i1 the so minutes.
 In establishing the 10-mile mark, De Palma shattered the record made by Itornstead on the Brooklands track with Benz, in January, 1914. of 112.6 miles an hour, by showing the aver age for the distance up to 11S.7, GOV ering the distance in 5:17:40
 When De Palma got the worlds six hour record he bettered the perform ance of Dario Resta. Jean Chassag gne and Lee Guinness, driving in relays, a Sunbeam on the Brooklands oval. De Palma covered 616 miles against the 556 miles 5S9 yards that the Sun beam trio made in 1913. As a matter of fact the distance De Palma covered was 633:12 miles. but under A. A. A. rMles the track is measured three feet from the pole, while the car was al ways near the center of the board oval De Palma made five stops dur irg the run for tires and fuel and

averaged 101 miles an hour on the of- ficiai distance or 105.42 by actual dis
 tance. He never let the average drop
 below 101 or creep above Ill.
 In addition to the record drives, De Palma used the car to humble Barney O1dfield in series of dirt track match races and to win a number of other big time events. The is being rebuilt from the ground up in the shops of the Pack ard company in Detroit and will be one of the fastest in the field.
 This is not the car, however that De Palma used to gain the world S records on the Daytona beach during the winter, as that is a much larger 1R-cylinder engine, having piston displacement of 9O5. against the speedway's cars 299 cubic inches. The big car is d one-man bodied racer, built only for straight-away work In it's flight against time at Daytona the car esta blished new worlds straight-away marks from one to thirty miles, covering the mile in 2402 an average of 149:S7s miles an hour. In a trial lap of the San- ta Monica road course of more than seven miles, with four flat turns De Palma averaged 8 3S miles an hour Just to show what it would do on a street, De Palma drove the monster 120 miles an hour over a boulevard in Denver re. gently.
 Although he will not have the big space eater, DePalma will have easily one of the speediest cars in the race and one that the fans almost sure to pick to get the checkered flag ahead of the re- mainder of the field.
 Ralph DePalma believes in the supersti tion of the race track. In entering the 500-mile Liberty sweepstakes on the In- dianapolis speedway, May 31, he has named the only mechanician that ever brought him a victory on the Hoosier oval. This is Louis Fontaine, diminu- tive Frenchman, from Milwaukee, who rode with him in 1915 when he copped first place in the $5O,0OD race with the Mercedes. DePalma did not file his en- try until he had signed Fontaine and pu; the Frenchman to work rebuilding the 12- cylindered Packard, that boasts a string of speed records as long as the tail of kite With a that has proved it's worth and a mechanican who has brought him wealth and victory at In- dianapols, DePalma is confident that his old jinx will be handed a solar plexus from which it will not re cover until after the race is run.

MORRISON GIVES
 TALKS ON TIRES
Manager of Crawford Quick Tire Service Had Good
 Ideas

There is no doubt in my mind that peo- pie in general pay foo little attention to their tires, says Truman Morrison
 Tires. like the engine or any other part Of car, require a certain amount of at tention if the owner expects to get the best results. There have been very many
 refinements in the construction of tires in the last few years, and the product that is built with quality as basic prin- ciple of it's manufacture is very depend able. Because this is so. the motorist frequently places so much confidence in his tire equipment that he is apt to over look, so far as his castings are concerned. the frequent inspection and attention which he gives to the rest of his car. The problem is to get a man interested
 before the occident befalls. As rule we are disposed to wait until our machines or tires let out how before attending to them. After a score of unifortuntes have been burned to death ill some old buildings, we institute an inquiry as to why preventive measures were not taken earleir. The remedy lids in treating ones property right at the right time, and in  constant inspection.
 A variety of points may come to our notice in this connection. In the first place, the selection of tires is often to blame for subsequent difficulties. The correct adaptation of tires, whether de- mountable or detachable or both, to tire, whether straight-side or clincher, should also be studied. Sometimes an inner tube is partly ruined from deterioation before it ever gets out on the road
 Lubr1cation, again, is often too infre- quent, and improperly done Even the question Of imitation is not so simple as 1t may seem. As for abuses unnecessary exposure to the effect of oil and grease an all too common overlooking of ma chine or tire, the sudden setting of brakes the disregardihg of cuts and
 bruises and the thoughtless attempt to wear down the steel car tracks-these are only few of the mistakes of which many of us are heedle$sly guilty.
 Starting next week. then, with short description of tire types, there will ap- pear each week an article dealing with some one aspect of the proper care of tires. Remarks will be made on oversize tires, the proper application of tires, and the dangers of misapplication The care

and usage of inner tubes and the impor- tance and use of flaps will also be dis cussed. There will be articles on rims, tire filters, wheel irregularities. snag wear, and other topics which have to do with the everyday troubles of the tire user, says MT. Morrison.

In the report of the meeting OF Cen

have the central body give it's indorse-
ment to the New York Call and the
Milwaukee Leader by reason OF those
papers giving full reports OF the prog
reSs of the steel strike. 1T was MADE
to appear that James Hartley of the
stationary nremen introduced the mo-
ton. which was incorrect.
The motion was offered by ]. T.
Alexander of the stenographers' union:
Mr.. Hartley advocated the adoption OF
the motion until he discovered that
the proposition was roundly de-
rounced as indorsing radical soclalls-
tic publications. when he Withdrew
his support and voted against the
proposition. He explained that ne
had never seen copy Of either OF the
papers and did not know their So
cialistic tendencies. Mr.. Hartley Is
employed in a federal government de-
partment and is a red-biooded patri-
otto American, his labor associates
say.
HARTLEY is against the anarchists,
bolshevists, socialists and stands fiat
footed on the patriotism that means
America for Americans said Secre-
tary Newton A. James of the central
body.
