FLEET OPERATION

The operating division should be headed by a man who is a practical dispatcher. He usually has direct charge of the drivers. who report to him daily as to mileage travelled, work accomplished, etc. The head of this division should furnish the fleet owner or manager with weekly or monthly record reports, showing the perform ances of each truck in complete detail.
 The larger fleets usually require stocl6room for spare parts. unless the manufacturer service station is close to the base of operation. Fleets of less than 10 trucks seldom need a stock of parts. except for minor ones, such as spark plugs, fan belts, grease cups and such. The larger fleets require in ad- dition extra springs, bearings, valves, magneto parts. etc. Some of the larg est fleets use the unit system, keeping on hand a spare motor, transmission, rear axle and other units in addition to sets of springs and other essential parts.

 TRACTOR CREATES
 FINE IMPRESSION

Introducing a tractor which is not in an experimental stage was the object or the visit of D. F. King, Pacific coast manager of sales and service for the Alls- Chalmers company, who spent the major portion of the week in this city with the Tractor Company of Ari- zona, distributors for the Allis- Chal- mers tractor.
 MT. King came here to take charge of a demonstration which was staged the latter part of the week by the local company. It was very convincingly demonstrated at the showing of the Allis-C Chalmers tractors that a machine worthy of it's name had been brought to Arizona.
 The .Allis- Chalmers tractor comes in two models, the 1S-30 the larger model, and the 6-12. The 1s-3O has been fermed ''The Farm Tractor while the smaller model is known as the Allis- Chalmers General Purpose Tractor.
 The power plant of the Allis- Chal- mers 1S-30 Farm Tractor consists of four cylinder vertical, valve-in- head engine of our own manufacture, and is designed especially for kerosene. The cylinders are separate castings insert ed into the motor block and exchange able for repairs. Side and bottom plates are provided in crank case mak- ing the interior of the motor easily ac- cessible. The motor has a bore and stroke of "A KS 1z, with normal speed or o3O K. +. M. The cyunderS are cast in block.
 The motor is equipped with a King ston double bowl carbuertor being fed by gravity and high tension mag neto with an impulse starter.
 Power is transmitted through an ex- banding clutch of our own make, which is simple and easy of adjustment. The drive wheels are 50 inches in diam eter with a 12-inch face. The wheel hubs are mounted on plain bearings on the axle shaft, but shaft itself is car : ried on Hyatt roller bearings.

that the demonstration could be ac- complished in ease and thereupon set about to prove his statement. One of the smaller size Fageols, with it's pat ented sfx-speed compound transmits sion was taken to Ray Junction where Devine and many other truck owners awaited to view the attempt.
 A huge gas engine, weighing exactly 7,400 pounds was loaded on the truck, with Free at the wheel and Devine beside him. So sure was one owner of a high grade truck, who was there to witness the run, that the Fageol would fail as had its predecessors, that he offered to bet his truck against SI00 of Frees money. The wager was covered as far as the $100 was concerned, the truck owner finally deciding that it was best to hold on to his truck.
 According to actual measurements made by a surveyor. the 22-mile run ranged in mountain grades from 16 per cent to as high as 26 per cent. Be- cause of this unusual road condition, Devine has been paying a price of $20 per ton for his truck freightings which

COATES TIRE HOUSE INTRODUCES NEW SERVICE SYSTEM TO PHOENIX

demonstrates that the driver of a car, or the owner for that matter, not be- ing an expert on the rubber question is liable to drive castings until it is too late to save them. The object of the Coates service is to catch the evil at it's source and remedy 1t before 1t is too late.
 The present system was originated by E. Haney, who has installed it in several cities where it has met with remarkable success. Although the service has been in effect but a few weeks, about 100 cars are being sent through the inspection process every week.
 It is the intention of 1Ir. Coates to cater to individual car owners also. They may drive their cars into his place. have men who know tires from start to finish go all over them and find out exactly the condition of the castings. If there is anything wrong they will be notified on the spot, and steps can be taken to alleviate the danger.
 There is every accommodation for the motorist at the Coates Tire House. He or she too for that matter can drive right onto the floor in out of the dust and away from the heat and as soon as the tires have been gone over. he can drive straight ahead and out on to the road again. There ara enough air hoses and room enough tG accommodate three cars at one time.
 Another thing Of interest to the customers of the Coates Tire House is htat a service car is maintained which looks after the troubles of the road.
 The John F. Coates Tire House is one of the most complete institutions of it's kind in the southwest. In ad- dition to carrying 9 complete stock of Goodyear and Hood Tires( they do a general tire reparf business and carry a complete stock of automobile ac- cessories.

WOMEN BECOMING EXPERIENCED IN
 BUYING MACHINES

"The majority of women are prov ing themselves as discriminating auto mobile buyers as men, says Bert O. Brown, local dealer in Chevrolet pas senger and commercial cars.
 'It used to be thought that most women were influenced in the selec- ton of a car by appearance alone. If the car body was pleasing to the eye it was thought she could be sold i'm mediately without serious inVestiga- tion Of mechanical ability.
 But today womeG appreciate the importance of mechanical excellence. When 1t comes to selecting a car for her own use the average women is firmly holding up her reputation for securing the utmost value for every dollar she spends.
 "The woman has had experience in driving cars herself She knows not only what equipment is essential but also what mechanical qualities are necessary to her comfort.
 ''She has learned that a sturdy medium weight automobile is the most convenient and easy for her to drive It conserVes her strength affords every advantage any car win offer and above all keeps her transpor ortatios costs at a minimum.
 ."The up-to-dat woman knows that she can get the most satisfactory mechanical service from such car. She knows also that the purchase price will include every item of equipment that will make for riding and driving comfort. She sees to it that it does

 The latter is almost within the grasp of the motor world. For a noted chemist has invented a method to pro duce liquid hydrogen cheaply. What interests auto drivers is that one gal lon of this fuel. says the scientist. is enough to run an automobile 250 miles.

SOUEAKS CRATE ON
 NERVES IF AUTOIST

Nothing so grates on the nerves of automobile drivers and passengers as car body that grunts with each road bump or jolt and interrupts converse ton with rasping squeaks or rattles' says H. Fl. Hotchkiss, president Over land Arizona company.
 The new Overland body construc ton has been one of it's great sources of popularity with the buying public. In the construction of this body, thick, high grade steel is thrust into giant pressing and stamping machines and is removed from the dies in varied and interesting shapes.
 'tOne piece. of steel has become the shell of door. Another steel plate takes the form of the tonneau. The curved top of another steel shell in dicates it's purpose as the back of the drivers compartment.
 Each of these pressed and stamped forms is assembled and welded togeth- er By this process t1e various parts become d single uEit There are no bolts to work loose and no screws to pun out. The welding process makes the new Overland body an oll-steeI. one piece unit with not q chance of d body squeak or rattle.
 "Tbe rest of the construction and upholstery is of the same quality. Add ed to this is a paint job not possible with auy but all steel body \ body with wood in it would not stand the extremes Of heat and steam 10 which this body, in the painting process, is subjected.
 Tn this painting seven distinct oper- ations in electric ovens of 450 degrees heat are required. In this intense heat the enamel is baked on lustrous, hard and permanent"

No friction, no noise no fabrication are the claims advanced for the latest auto wheel invention. Instead Of the conventional rigid spokes there are eight cushion spiral springs while a rubber cushion around the hub further protects the car from shocks and strains. Its inventor claims it will be Of considerable use on motor trucks.

Three Managers May
 Not Be Returned

At least three of the clubs in the Eastern league will have new man. agers next season. Dan Howley, the Hartford pilot this past season, left Hartford and said he would not be in the Eastern league next season. There is strong talk up Pittsfield way that Manager Joe Birmingham will not lead the Hillies again and while nothing has been said about the mat ter it is definitely settled that Man ager Ed Walsh will not be back with the Bridgeport club.
 There may be more changes be- fore the Eastern league season rolls around again. Even the New Haven club may have a new pilot. This was intimated some time ago when it was announced that Tyrus Ray mond Cobb. the Detroit star, had purchased S5,e00 worth iof stock in the New Haven baseball company.
 Chief Bender, who so successfully led the New Haven Indians this sea son, will soon be given a position as marksman for one of the big muni- ton manufa cturers of New Haven and this may cause him to change his mind and go back to the diamond next summer.

NEW YORK HAS VISIONS
 OF WHOLE WORLD SERIES
Dodgers Have Comfortable Lead In National League, While Yankees Look Like Winners In American Cir
 cult With Only 13 More Gaines to Be Played

New York, Sept 15.-New York. had visions of a personally conducted worlds series today by the continued trend of the Dodgers toward the championship of the National League. Neither the Giants nor the Reds could take advantage of the Brook lyn reverse which left matters stand ing just where they were when the Dodgers gained their commanding lead two days ago.
 The ease with which the Yankees plastered the Cleveland and Detroit clubs in their last five games gave great announcement to followers of the teams fortunes. In ability of pitchers to deliver in the past, it is believed now, has become only a memory. Five out of six games on the victory side of the ledger is a feat of great promise for the Yankee adherents. The tightest little race the American League has seen in years is now a little looser than for sev- era1 days, due to the jump of the Tanks into first place.

STATE GUARD TO HELP BASKETBALL
 LEAGUE CIRCUIT
Plan is To Have Them h. terested in Stamford, Dan
 bury and Norwalk.
MAY USE MEMORIES
Only Through Guardsmen Gan These Halls Be Ob-
 tained for Indoor Game.

If plans for the proposed Connecti- cut State Bask etbaH League go through as expected. there is going to be another com bination of State Guardsmen and private, promoters be- hind the scheme This combination may not be exactly pleasing to all concerned. but the guardsmen hold the whip hand, and are not to be de- posed in the cities wh8pe they have controlled the game fo 44he past two years.
 In same towns whicE Eafe to be in cluded in the league. tHSstate arnor- ies are the only halls hMhich games can be staged with any1fegree of suc- cess. Other courts might be secured, but these> would not be large enough to accommodate the crowds which sometimes flock to a game.
 Tn Stamford, Danbury and Norwalk this is particularly true. Since the
 time when basketball was first intro duced in this state, the armories of
 these towns have been used to stage all big professional contests. Fans and promoters both realize that the armories are the only logical places for the games.
 Since the beginning of the war the State Guard has been in control of the armories, and it is through the guardsmen alone that permission to use these halls can be obtained. In | view of this fact, the promoters must 1 effect some sort of a combine with the I guardsmen if they expect several 1 cities which are being considered for | the league to hold up their end. It is l understood that the State Guard is not opposed to the formation of a. 1 league. but on the other hand strongly i favors the proposition. From this it l appears that the league will not run
 on the rocks through differences be- tween the individual promoters and | the State Guard.

Few Football Rule
 Changes For the Year

The principal changes in the 1920 football rules may be summarized briefly as follows:-
 Clipping is forbidden, whether or not the ball is dead, if done to a man obviously out of the play; rough ing the forward passer is considered unnecessary roughness if committed after the pass has been made the punt-out is abolished; and side mak ing touchdown in any part of the field may bring the ball out straight in front of goal for the try at goal; both referee and 1inesmen are charged with duty of watching man in motion before ball is put into play, and player making a shift must have both feet stationary after he has come into position; substi- tuition of player will be completed when he has reported to proper o1- ficial and change. has been made; time on unconnpleted forward passes will be taken out until play starts again; in case of purposely false starting signal, referee may demand that play be made over again.

 "The nlisfortunes of war have just caught up to Irkutsk,' says a bulletin from the Washington headquarters of the National Geographic Society which describes the recent capital of the Ko1ohak government, now report ed to be captured by the Boisheviki.
 Forty hours from anywhere, figur- itive1y; five days from Petrograd, lit trally, in the best of times; farther, in fact, from the Russian. than is San Francisco from New York, this Siber- ian metropolis was too far removed to suffer more than pin bricks from the world war, but now is engufed in it's turbulent wake.
 Not only is Irkutsk a remote city of sleeping giant country, but it has been an isolation ward for Russia S political exiles From such a thistle the traveller usually did not expect tnuch-and was agreeably surprised. Until the storming by the Reds few days ago Irkutsk was a thriving, well built, modern city.
