A FREIGHT car averages little
~ better than twenty-three mile:
~ of travel day, according tt
carefully prepared statistic:
which have recently been placed be-
fore the Interstate Commerce Com
mission by railroad experts. When 9
shipper becomes impatient with de-
lays in the delivery of shipments. II
has become a common witticism fol
him to say he could walk faster thar
the average freight car travels, and
these figures seem to indicate there
is more truth than fiction in the re-
mark.
The same railroad experts have told
the commission that If the average
travelling of each freight car in the
United States could be increased one
mile per day 1t would add 100000
freight cars to the available equip
ment- Railroad heads, at a recent
meeting of the Association of Railway
Executives, set as goal to be at
tanned as quickly as possible an av-
erage of thirty miles per car per day.
If that could be attained and the es-
Inmates for one mile carried out for
all of the seven. apparently 100000
more freight cars would in effect be
added to the railroad equipment. AS
the railroads estimate their freight
car needs at much less than that
figure. that would absolutely wipe out
the present car shortage without the
building of new car.
Another measure which has been
urged for helping the car shortage,
which is the subject of almost daily
deliberations by the members of the
Interstate Commerce Commission, is
a heavier loading of freight cars And
the railroad experts have told the
commission that an average increase
of one ton per each loaded car would,
in effect. add $4,000 cars to the pres
ent rolling stock
The statistics on car movements
presented to the commission show
that the highest average of speed on
American roads in the last ten years
was made in 1916. when the average
was 26.9 miles per car per day. Dur
ing 1918, under federal control, the
average was 24.6, and in 1919, 23.1.
No figures are available for a part of
this year. This average is determined
by taking the total miles of any
given car during the year and divid-
ing that by the number of days in
the year.
Actual Service of a Car.
While the average of 81 miles per
day. is the best ever attained for all
the American railroads, it is to be re-
membered that the average freight
car is actually in a train moving be-
tween one terminal and another only
&c hours out of the "a or about IL
per cent of the time; that it is actu-
ally placed at the service of the ship
per or receiver about 81 per cent of
the time and that the rest of the
time it is being moved to or from
the place where it is loaded or I'M
loaded to the yard where it is put
into a train, is on transfer tracks or
being repaired.

Arrival Of Three Veteran Players
Should do Much to Redeem
Defeat of Sunday.

the wintry wind to watch the pas
time, the~majority of the athletes
chung close to the steam in the
hotel lobby.
But this morning they we're out
with greater pep than ever, prob
ably due to the change to a milder
temperature. And the boys are de-
termined, too, to fit themselves in
the best possible condition to re-
deem the defeat at the hands OF
Moline last Sunday. Next Sundays
game with the Flows will be play
ed at Brownin: field in Moline.
Earle Mack's charges meet the
Iowa university nine in a three
game series beginning today at
Iowa City.
Ben Smith. the first baseman Sc
cured from Oklahoma City in the
Western league, arrived in Rock
Island Sunday too late to jump
into the harness, but he will be
seen at his regular station in the
next game. This is one reason
why Rock Island should cop the
next tilt with Moline.

and stated he would arrive in Rock
Island Wednesday. This is another

Pitcher Fred Thompson, secured
from Mike Kelly of the St. Paul

J. Meyers TO
MEET bYLUND
ON APRIL 20


Under he direction Of Robert N.
sCuriey" Anderson, the wrestling
game in the trfcities is evidently
due to be revived with a boom,
judging BY the quality Of q match
"Curiey" has arranged for the
night Of April 20 at Moline Turner
hall. No less a parsonage in the
grappaing world than Johnny Mey-
ers will mingle in q finish affair
with one Bobby Bylund, pride Of
Moline.
The follower of sports knows
that Johnny Meyers is the accred-
tied worlds champion middle
weight wrestler. In Chicago he is
capable of drawing enormous
crowds through the doors to see
him work against the other high
class middleweight wrestlers that
abound in and around the big city.
Several weeks ago Meyers lost a
one-fall match to John Kil0nis and
now the pair is scheduled to meet
again tomorrow night in Chicago.
Sporting authorities of the Windy
City expect the proceeds of the
match to approach the $4,000
mark.
In securing Meyers for a bout in
Moline with Bobby Bylund, Cur
ley" is only bearing out his reputa-
ton as a go-getter. Bylund is in
the select circle Of middleweight
wrestlers. He proved this the 9TH
er night at Ell Paso, Texas, when
he won from Chris Jordan. Chris
Jordan has been listed by experts
as practically on a par with Mey-
ers.
