RACING DRIVER
IN NEW STUNT
Art Klein Introduces Tire Dis
appearing Stunt at Last
Race at Los Angeles NeU
Championship Speedway.

In the great speedway races which
have been run on the various race
courses Of the country many thou
sands of racing enthusiasts have felt
the thrill that come sfrom witnessing
a freak performance on the track.
Cars apparently under perfect control
suddenly skid and crash through the
fence, or a driver may come out OF
turn so fast that his car describes
circle before resuming its forward
journey, or a car may suddenly lock
its brakes and catapult diagonally
across the track into the fence. Such
instances are not uncommon. In the
early days of racing throwing tire
from a revolving wheel was almost
standard practice, and racing men
expected it constantly. Now, however,
with the wonderful improvement in
tires and the methods of holding them
to the rims, such occurances are ex-
tremely rare. 1t is seldom that tire
parts company with it's car unless the
entire wheel works off the axle.
1t remained for Art Klein. however,
to introduce new tire disappearing
"stunt" into racing history, in the 250
mile championship race just held on
the new Los Angeles speedway. While
leading a field of vetera ndrivers at
aspeed of 1O4 miles an hour in the
1s3d mile. Klein's right rear wheel
collapsed in such a manner that every
steel wire spoke was sheared off clean
at it's junction with the rim. His three
wheeled mount crawled about crafty
on the track for an instant while the
sheared-off 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 it was
subjected to a terrific strain when the
rim parted from the spokes. This is
the first time within the memory of
racing men that freak performance
of this character has happened in au-
tomobile racing

MOTOR TRUCKS AND GOOD
ROADS EQUALLY NECESSARY

anyone who works for good roads
is working for everyone's interest in
cluding his own," says P. Willis, local
dealer in the Chevrolet passenger and
commercial cars.
"The producer and the merchant
need good roads so they can transport
make more money.
"The consumer needs good roads to
, link him more surely and efficiently
with his source of supply and to af
ford him "a wider selection of better
goods for his money.
Herbert Hoover, international food
expert, said that SO per cent of the
perishable food raised in the United
| States never reaches market.
"Motor trucks are enabling more to
reach markets with products in better
condition. They are making it profit
able for the farmer to raise a larger
quantity and wider variety of per-
ishable produce. This results in equal
benefit to the consumer.
"But the motor truck has proved its
economic value in this respect in spite
of road conditions-not because of
them. -,,y
"In the few years that automobiles
have been a perfected unit of trans
portation their benefits to everyone
have made good roads a necessity
They have proved that if the fullest
benefits of motor cars are to be en-
joyed there must be good roads for
them to travel on.
"The better the roads and the more
of them. the greater the benefit which
more communities will derive. Every
new road, every improved road con-
meets new markets with new sources
of supply. And the more closely and
efficiently supply and demand are
linked together, the better it is for
| everyone"
