GOODYEAR TIRE COMES
THROUGH FREAK M|SHAP

In the great speedway races which
have been run on the various race
courses OF the country many thousands
OF racing enthusiasts have felt the
thrill that comes from witnessing a
freak performance on the track Cars
apparently under perfect control sud-
denly skid and crash through the
fence, or q driver may come out OF n
turn no fast that his car describes a
circle before resumlng II forward Jour-
ney, of a car may suddenly lock its
,ralSes and catapplt diagonally across
the track into the fence. Such instan-
ces are not standard practice, and rae
ing men expected il constantly. Now,
however with the wonderful improve
nent in tires and the methods Of hold
ing them TO the rims, such occurances
are extremely rare. II is seldom that
a tire parts company with it's car un-
less the entire wheel works off the
axle.
It remained for Art Klein. however,
to Introduce a new tire disappearing
stunt" into racing history, in the 25O
mile championship race just held on
the new Los Angeles speedway. While
leading a field of veteran drivers at a
speed of 104 miles an hour in the 1880
mile, Klein's right rear wheel collaps-
ed in such a manner that every steel
wire spoke was sheared off clean at
its junction with the rim. His three
wheeled mount crawled about crazily |
on the tract for an instant while the
sfeared- rim with its mounted
Goodyear tire kept rolling down the
race course. When finally captured |
this Goodyear tire was intact and still
perfectly mounted, although 1t was
subject to a terrific strain when the
rim parted from the spokes. This is
the first time within the memory or
racing men that freak performance
of this character has happened in
automobile racing.

HEAT AND LIGHT FOES !.
TO LUSTROUS FINISH


An example OF the care necessary
to obtain the satiny finish that dis
tinguishes the Thoroughbred automo-
bile OF today Is tq.f be seen in the
Essex. After the finishing coat OF
varnish is applied to the Essex body.
Il Is taken to dark room and al
lowed TO dry slowly at normal sum-
ner temperature.
Essex engineers found that, as VAR
nish Is full OF organic matter, light
had tendency to fade the color while
the application of heat resulted In
"tacky'' finish. OF course, IL takes
longer to dry u body without the ap-
plication of heat and considerable
storage space Is required to enable
It to be kept away from the light, but
1t was decided that the results were
well worth the additional expense.
The finish of the Essex is the re-
suit OF special investigations In the
Hudson and Essex cars. The finish IL

applied IN various ways. The carry
printing coats are put on by means OF
9 impressed air. which forces the spe-
cial material used into every crevice
ard interstice of the body giving n
splendid foundation for future coats
Numerous coats are still put on by
hand and brush In the old-fashioned
way After each coat the bodies go
into ovens constructed TO hold hum
dreds Of bodies at time. IN these
ovens the finish is.baked on, affer
which the body goes to the ruppers
nnd IL rubbed down by hand. The
iinl coat Is allowed to dry In dark
rooms at normal summer tempera-
tnre.
In al, each bcdy passes through
% different operations. The result

HAS $4,000
WORTH Of STUDEBAKERS

That automobiles are no longer con-
sidered merely as pleasure vehicles is
evidenced in the fact that both farm
ers and business men declare that
their business could scarcely be op-
Grated in this age without the aid OF
the automobile.
Although complete statistics are un-
available at this time, it is believed
that there are today more car own
ers in Umatilla county and eastern
Oregon than any other county OF IKE
size in the northwest. Those who
have been driving cars in the past are
disposing of the old ones and pur-
chasing newer and more efficient
models and others who by some
means or other have conducted their
business heretofore without the aid or
car are this spring placing orders
for new machines.
Last year was the biggest year in
the history of the automobile indus
try in Pendleton, but indications are
that 1920 will surpass last years rec
ord by a quarter million dollars The
firm of Wallace Bros. local Stude-
baker dealers, placed more than $780,
600 worth of new cars in the county
last year regardless of the acute car
shortage from March 1st to the first of
january, 1920. Since January /, 1920,
rnora than $4,000 worth of Stude-
bakers have been sold from the local
office.
According to Mr.. Wallace, the de-
mand for this car is far greater than
his company will be able to supply this
year. but every effort is being made
to Keep shipments rolling from the
StuGehaker factories. and that as
many as possible will be secured for
IrInntilia county, purchasers.

Of the hat when members are In the

seated or in the lobby. Only the whips
were hatless In the lobby; that mark ed
them out from the others. Now nearly
the only members who still retain
their headgear-both glossy silk top
pers-are Mr.. Chamberlain and Sir
Frederick Banbury. Both make great
play with 1t. Sir Frederick raises his
hat when minister answers one Of
his questions or, when. In the fencing
phrase, he is touche In debate. The

off when he rises to speak and puts It

listening to speaker sits with It well
