BILLIARDS


CHICAGO, Dec. 8.-Finishing with a
brand of super billiards which netted
twenty points in thirteen innings,
John Layton of st. Louis defeated Augie
Kieckhefer Of Chicago, 30 to 50, in forty
one innings yesterday afternoon. This
set new low game mark in the prelini-
nary series for the worlds three-cushion
championship, the best previous being
forty three innings, made in the opening
game by De ORC against Layton.
The victory gives Layton a strong hold
on the $1,000 first prize. His remaining
opponent is Maupome. and even should
he lose TO the Milwaukee star, he has won
his place in the final series.

TIRES DOWN!
MILEAGE UP
Akron Manufacturers Cut
Prices and Increase
Number of Miles.

Tire cost comparisons have taken
on additional Importance with the
recent Akron price cuts. With a
decline of from 10 to Is per cent,
the motoring public which has long
been awaiting a reduction, is afford
ed a splendid opportunity to pur-
chase tires long since needed.
The fact that Akron is the tire
center of the world and manutac-
lures 90 per cent of the total world
output, makes the receRt reductions
OF special significance. The Miller
Rubber COmpany's reduction aver
aged IL per cent on cord tires 10 to
1212 per cent on fabric tires, and Is
per cent on red and gray tubes.
The fact that this company has
increased its mileage lis per cent
in the last three years, and that
sales have shown an increase of 500
per cent since the pre-war period,
is proof positive that motorists are
vitality concerned in the lowered
price-per- mile costs.
The MOTORISTS Judgment in an
swering the question, What tire
shall l buy? will still determine not
only the degree of freedom he en-
joys from tire trouble. but his cost
per mile.

Oflcial announcement that the

The statement is of vital interest
to all persons directly or Indirectly
concerned in the automotive busi-

extracts:
This is the whole proposition:
There hasn't anything been done by

most cases nothing has been done

NEW AUTOS EQUIPPED
FOR CAMPING PARTIES

Reports from all sections of the
country indicate that 1920 will be
the greatest touring year since the
automobile was made a practical
road vehicle.
As a result of the desire to travel
and to camp by the roadside on oc-
easion, automobile makers have
%pd 1t necessary to build cars to
carry baggage safely and at the
same time not crowd the passengers.
As an indication of this tendency

Uniformity Great Need
In Automobile Head-Lamp
Regulations in States

p The need for definite, uniform,
united action on the part of the
Various States in the regulation of
the automobile headlamp glare men
zee Is emphasized by the fact that
kroups Of officials in the various
Communities and States of this
eountry are all seeking the same
object
Apparently unacquainted with the
work that has already been done
along this line by the societies of
Illuminating and automotive en-
gineers, these officials are strug-
Cling along blindly and indepeno-
entity of each other in an effort to
ind some means of solving the
problem
1t has been established beyond
argument that an illumination Of
4. 500 apparent candle power at some
point between the ground and on
level with the headlamps of the
car Is the minimum light necessary
20 properly discern an object in the
road 200 feet in front of car.
It has been established that dan
gerous glare will be experienced if
over 2,400 candle power is had AZ
inches above the level of the head
lamps at 200 feet. 1t has been es-
tablished that to afford safety to
other users of the highway 500
candle power must not be used
without DINNERS.
1t is just as important for the
driver of a car to be able to discern
an object at 200 feet when he is
driving alone as it is when his car
is fully loaded.
A spring detection downward at
the rear of some cars will throw the
light upward seven feet in 200 feet
and increase the illumination at a
point AZ inches above the danger
point to $500 candlepower.
Therefore it follows that anyone
driving a car with headlamps so ar
ranged as to comply with lighting
recommendations under all condi-
tions OF car loading will have made
quate light when he is riding alone.
In view of the fact that automo-
biles probably always will have
Springs, and that some roads will
always have surfaces that are ir-
regular. headlamp authorities rea-
lie the limitations of any fixed sys-
tenn of head lighting.
The Society of Illuminating Engi-
neers, in a report to the State of
New York, says: THE committee
also considers the proper use of a
controllable device as indicated is
necessary IL all the conditions of
proper road lighting are to be met.
and that no fixed and invariable de-
vice can meet all these conditions"
That is why F. B. Ansted, pres
ident of the United States Automo-
tive Corporation. is urging united
action on the part of the States. All
are seeking the means of protection
against glare.
