MANY MOTOR BIKE RACES.
Season of 1920 One of Most Sue
cessful in U. S.

The season of 1920 marks the most
successful period in the history Of motor
cycle racing and is rapidly drawing to
a close Under the guidance of a COM
mittee appointed by the Motor Cycle
and Allied Trades Association, the sport
has fiourished as never before and has
gained a following of fans throughout
the country which ranks second only to
base ball.
over 100 big race meets have been
staged on dirt tracks and speedwayS
throughout the country during the sea-
son. The attendance at many of these
has run upward of 10000. Unlike the
sport as it was known to the public
a few years back. motor cycle racing
has been placed on a comparatively safe
and sane basis through the enforcement
of stringent rules. The motor drome,
or murderdrome,' as it is styled in the
vcrnacular, is a thing of the past and
no racing is permitted on anything
smaller than half-mile tracks. Clean,
wholesome, sporting competition has
been the result, accidents have been
few and the increase in popularity of
the sport has been big.

/. Irregular sparkling at the safety
spark gap of a magnetic occurs usually

FAULT OF RUBBER CEMENT.

One reason perhaps why great many
roadside and amateur tire patches do
not mold when the tire is assembled into
the shoe is that the rubber cement
used is not up to the mark. USu-
ally the cement has been reposing in the
cars tire repair kit for quite time.
and therefore is not quite so active and
fresh as ii once was. Be sure to get
the best materials you cam in the first
place, and further, before going on a

make sure that everything is in good
condition. Better an inspection before
the start of the trip than regrets at

7 R j CK TIRE IS
TO PROTECT TRUCK
The Edgar Brothers Employees
Hold Interesting Meeting;
FirestOne Manager address,
es Them, Welcoming Them.

The purpose of truck tire is to
protect the truck and its contents.
The requirements of a truck tire are
that it shall absorb vibration, and give
good mileage, and the resiliency of a
truck tire depends upon the volume
of rubber in the tire and the compound
of which it is made.
at is as possible TO have a solid
truck tire with too great volume of
rubber as too little 1t is as possible
TO overload solid tire as pneumatic
tire. and it is just as poor policy in the
one case as in the other.
THE best efforts of Firestone con-
struction engineers have been concen-
trated on the problems of truck tire
construction for years, and the fact
that Firestone truck tires are used
or more than % epercent of tn
freight hauling trucks of the entire
country proves their success.
These are pointers taken from the
talk by G. o. Fries of the Firestone
Tire and Rubber company. made at
the meeting of Edgar Bros Employees

SAN DIEGO, June 5.-As has fire.
Quently been pointed out, San Diego
is the logical distributing point for the
products of the Imperial valley and it
is equally true, according to officers of
the chamber of commerce, that the
bulk of the supplies needed in the val
ley should be furnished by the mer
chants and manufacturers of this city
1t is pointed out that the business
men of Imperial valley prefer to trade
in San Diego. if proper inducements
are offered. The completion of the
San Diego 4 Arizona railway has link
ed the two counties together and their
interests are largely mutual. according
to farsighted business men. each coun-
ty needing the products Of the other.
Relative to the opportunity of de-
veloping commercial relations between
San Diego and Imperial counties, an
officer Of the chamber of commerce
of this city yesterday said:
San Diego is now perfecting plans
for port development along compre-
hensive lines and various steamship
companies have signified their will
lingness to make this direct port of
call if cargo is supplied. There is no
tonnage in San Diego and vicinity to
supply many vessels with cargo. 1t is
merely a matter of getting it together
and this can be accomplished when
shippers fully realize that they are
not only saving money by shipping
large quantities of freight by water
but are at the same time doing much
to advance the best interests of the
city.
with large steamships once COM
ing into this port the city will grow
commercially and industrally. The
demand for local products and sup
plies will increase to meet the de-
mand from points reached by water
commerce.
San Diego is we'll provided in the
way of rail facilities. but it is neces-
sary that proper sea outlets be devel-
oped The Imperial valley and other
points in the southwest will profit by
shipping large quantities of their pro-
ducts to San Diego over a direct line
for ns-shipment by sea. Such an
outlet will result IN the planting of
greater crop acreage to meet the m
creased demand that sea transporta
ton will bring about.
Every bushes man and shipper in
the two counties should work shoul-
der to shoulder for the mutual inter-
ests of all concerned. The business
is here already and can be expanded
rapidly if concerted action Is taken.

PLANS OF CHECK
ARTISTS GO WRONG

the First National Bank and his ac-
complice, Harry Durham. alias H,
d. Young, are in the county Jail
charged with attempting to pass a
worthless check in the sum of $3.50 on
the First National Bank.
Hall used LIS official position to
obtain knowledge and resigned Thurs
day evening. Complete instructions
to Durham were found on how the
proposed passing was to be made q
success.
Cashier Ira Hobby Immediately
detected the worthlessness of the
check and sought to detain Durham
until he could be identified. In this
he was unsuccessful but the alarm
was given and the pair were arrested
before dusk last evening.
The check was made out on b

of his signature.
They will be arraigned later.
