U. $. OLYMPIC CYCLE TEAM ID BE STRONG
 CONTENDER ABROAD

There is mighty good reason for placing great hopes in the United States Olympic club team, whose ! aake-up was determined by the final elemination races last Sunday. It's a good bet that the American riders will win in Belgium.
 When one takes into consideration the conditions that the riders had to meet in the road race over the 1OS. "A mile course on Long Island and the time they made in spite of everything it looks like clear sailing for our team. Riding over a hundred miles of sGtt road is no easy job on such a hot day as we had on Sunday. But when the roads are jammed with automobiles besides it takes all the rest of the joy out of life. Luckily not one of the 35 riders who started was bumped by an auto. It is some consolation to know that the course in Belgium will be patrolled by Dutch soldiers J. D. Freeman of St. Louis, who fin ished the road race first in 5:24 50 rode a steady, consistent race from start to finish. The others who vii ride with him in the Olympic road races with the times they made are: A. Nogara of Washington, ,: 27: 51 J. Otto of Newark, N. J.. 5: 2S: 30; an6 E.. Kockler of Chicago, 5:2S:45 R. Grasing of New York and c. Stock holm of Chicago who finished in 1lftf and sixth places will go with the team
 as substitutes, although onlp four rid

SPOKT|TE SERVICE STATION HAS BEEN
 ESTABLISHED HERE

An official Spoketite service station has been established here in Phoenix at Ed Rurolphs garage for the con- venience and service of autoists who are troubled with squeaky and loose spokes.
 It has been true for a long time that motorists have become so accustomed to running their cars with squeaky wheels and spokes that they have lost sight of what these squeaks really mean.
 A squeak in an auto wheel means that it is loose and working looser with every turn of the wheel. sooner or later it will collapse. and if this hap pens on railroad track or on bad turn, a serious accident results.
 Cracking paint around the joints is @ sure sign that the spokes are loosen ing from the rim or hub. and even be- fore the wheels have gotten to the equeaky stage, Spoketite should be used to permanently swell the wood to it's original tightness.
 The product "Spoketite," which is manufactured by the Woodtite Labor atories of Modesto, California, has for several years been recognized as q sure preventative of wheel collapse. It is squirted into the wheel at hub or fel- Toe, swelling the wood until the joint l is again frightened and acting in much 1 the same way as water does. But l Spokette does not dry or eVaporate
 like water, It keeps the joint forever | frightened.
 Spokitite has been nationally adver- tised for years in such publications as | the Saturday Evening Post, the Liter ary Digest and the big automobile
 trade journals of the country, and is 1 thoroughly established everywhere as the life saver" of the wheel. It does l the work permanently and makes au- | tomobiling safer and infinitely more | pleasurable.
 Automobile owners can apply Spoke tite themselves, if desired. It is really
 a very simple operation, except in cases | where the hub has been affected in
 such a way that it is necessary to | remove the hub plates in order to get at the interior of the wheel, in which | case expert service is sometimes neces-
 sary. In the majority of cases. how l ever, the man who is at all handy about
 a machine takes little can of Spoke
 tite and does d fine job himself at | home

GOOD ADVICE ON
 TIRE TROUBLES

Trouble and annoyance is saved the motorist if he will examine his castings after a punoture, before inserting d new tube. A nail, fragment of glass, or rough and broken fabric surface, re- maining over from the first puncture, will often quickly ruin a new tube.
 After a careful inspection of the cas- ing, the tube should be slightly in Hated before being inserted, in order to prevent it's being twisted, according to tire and tube experts. Where the tube is inserted flat. there is danger that due to a twisted condition, it will tear under high air pressure.
 Another good rule is never to place the tube on the ground. A porous con dition is often a direct result of the dirt and sand which adhers to the tube which has been laid on the road beside the car.
 fourth principle of tube conversa- tiion is to lightly dust the inside of the casing with soapstone or tals. This prevents shafing and sticking of tube and casing. Excessive use of either tale or soapstone causes tube blisters.

ELG|N COURSE
 IN GOOD SHAPE
 FOR ROAD RACE

CHICAGO, July 24.-Persistent work brought the surface of the highway into a condition far superior to any road race course in the country
 Work has been going on steadily nearly all spring and today the surface
 is ideal for speed The roughness on the north leg has been removed, so that this section is today better than that of the south leg and the latter has always been ideal
 Soft spots, small depressions, etc. have been filled with gravel. the road has been graded and scraped and most persistently dragged until it is faster than ever.
 In addition, the narraw spots have been widened, some excessive crown l has been removed and next month the road will receive it's first bath of oil. Then, before the race, set for August 1 21, another coating of duSt-layer will | be spread on.
 | Director Root is authority for the | statement that absolute promises have been received for the entry of the Mon . roe, Frontenac and Deusenberg teams
 which will include Gaston Chevrolet
 Tommy Milton and Jimmy Murphy. In
 addition the entry of Cliff Durant has
 been received and Ralph De Palma and | Ralph Mulford have promised to be on i hand to start in the 1920 Elgin, whose prizes and guarantees amount to s15,-
 900 cash, besides the Cobe trophy going to the winner.

REPORTS BETTER .DE RE { LIN POPULAR TRUCK

According to Cal Messner, state dis tributor for the G.M.C. trucks, produc ton has been speeded up at the factory of the General Motor Truck company to such a degree that shipments are now being received at local headquar- ters in better shape than they have been for some time.
 As a result. Mir. Messner reports a very satisfactory business on these trucks for the past 30 days, having made deliveries of seven trucks dur ing that period, and judging from pres ent indications, the 1ocal agency will continue to make deliveries in such a manner as to keep up with the demand for this popular truck.
 During the past month, four one-ton G.M.C. trucks were delivered to the Hassayampa Creamery company, mak- ing a total of eight G.M.C. trucks in the creamery company's equipment. The Tucson Transfer company took delivery of two one tonners, bringing their G.M.C. equipment up to a total of five trucks. Other deliveries made were those of a two ton truck to the Barker Produce company, making a total of four in their equipment and another one-ton truck to the South west Cotton company which brings their total of G.M.C. trucks up to five

ARIZONA ROADS
 TEST POWER OF
 MOTOR TRUCKS

TopographicalIy Arizona presents conditions that are the equal of those in any other state and has some few possessed by no other. In sections of the southern, and central parts through the Salt River valley and Yuma, intense heat prevails with sand and the accompanying shifting road beds and steep pitches, through cross washes are found. Part of this south ern section is practically at sea level and in bordering territory it is below sea level. Water is precious, gasoline expensive, and grit blown by the winds wear any exposed mechanical parts of a truck rapidly.
 The northern part of Arizona is a country of long mountainous grades, very high attitudes, rocky road beds, and severe cold weather during many good road paradise for motor trucks and trucks operating in Arizona are called upon to do things every day that the. eastern truck does not comprehend or realize.
 It is a fact that truck properly de- signed and one that will give satisfac- tory performance on the streets and highways of the East finds it is with insufficient power when put to the western test. To build truck that can be operated successfully in AriZo
 ma is to build a truck that can be oper- ated in any part of the world. This applies to Arizona more than any other western state, except possibly Califor mia.
 With a full knowledge of these facts

With the conclusion of the national economy run staged by the Jordan Motor Car company, many glowing re- ports of remarkable performances are being received at the headquarters of the Arizona Jordan company, local dis tributors for the Jordan car.
 The economy run was held in 2S different sections of the country and as many Jordan Silhouette Elves par ticipated in the run which was held for the purpose of demonstrating the extremely low cost of operating a Jor- dan car. As a result of this nation wide demonstration the Jordan car showed a performance that stamps it as a dependable and economical car
 Running a total distance of 12. 546 miles, in many instances negotiating almost impossible roads and operat- ing under conditions that would prove a severe test to any car, the Jordan Silhouette Five completed the run with the remarkable average of 24 miles to the gallon of gasoline.

NEW HOLMES IMPROV Fl COOLED CAR
 MAKES ITS FIRST AP PPEARAVCE IN PHOENIX

To the service requirement of an open car, Holmes full elliptic springs, mounted on a flexible chassis, bring a shock absorbing quality that easily permits of road averages Of 30 to 40 miles an hour in comfort. where other cars must slow down to IS and 20 miles. Towns are brought closer to- gether and the total mileage at the end of the day is surprisingly large. The fuel efficiency of the Holmes improved aircooled motor, with aeroplane type valves, dual exhaust valves, IS valves in all in the head, is shown in a gaso- line consumption of IS to % miles to the gallon.
 In the Holmes roadster, durability is a natural result of proper construction. Built to withstand continuous jolting over rough pavements in the city and the strains of uneven country roads, this car exemplifies the Holmes idea that high operation costs are no longer necessary in car of proper size and satisfactory ability. Smooth flexible power gives this car speed range of to 50 miles per hour on high gear and easy riding qualities add to its many comforts
 Comfort and service are combined in the Holmes coupe, with superior style and an unusual economy. Four pas sengers may ride in it with ample room for all. The auxiliary seat, easily swung out Of sight when not Tn use, affords the same luxurious seating ease that is afforded by the standard seats Convenience and ease of driving con- | trol is afforded by a starting system which prevents the motor from stall ! ing, a service brake which multiplies a l light pressure on the pedal to a force

METROPOLITAN AUTO STORAGE GARAGE IS
 B|C FAvOR|TE HERE

The construction of the new Met ropolitan storage garage in this city has been topic of widespread inter- est, not only in Phoenix but all over the state, since the announcement of the construction of this entirely up to date building was made last Sunday. Based on a study of modern automo- bile storage methods and equipped with every known appliance for the comfort and convenience of the mo- torist, this garage has won instanta- neous favor among the motor car own CTS of Phoenix, and applications for space have been coming in with clock like regularity during the past week. There are still a considerable num- Der of desirable vacancies to be filled, however, but because of the unexpect- ed number of applications received following the initial announcement, owners are urged to make their reser- vations for space now as indications point to the building being filled up in a short time
 We propose to make the Metropo1- itan the finest storage garage of it's kind in the southwest" said A. c. Dull mage of Dulmage and Dunbar, in speaking of the project which is rapid- ly gaming headway. Discriminating car owners will appreciate the advant- ages to be obtained in storage garage l based on modern ideas and operated with view to giving the motorist service 24 hours of the day. The bene- fits to be derived from such a garage are so numerous and apparent that we- 1 feel that in the establishing of the Metropolitan, we have met the popu- 1 lar demand for a storage garage that makes service its leading feature"
 Arrangements have now been com pleted for the installation of a Boyle 1 Dayton service equipment costing
 S9,000 in the new building, whicsx means that the management intends to give the motoring public the best sery- ice equipment on the market today The latest model Boyle Dayton auto j matic air controlled Aero" gas pumps will be a part of this equipment. Tbexe will be four lines of hose, leading from these pumps two to be in the service
 station proper, one in the basement and the other on the main floor.
 l The latest model wheeled gas bug gies will be used on the floor to carry I gasoline to the cars and a kerosene pump will also be installed in the service station. The specifications in clude eight automatic oil lines while
 there will be six gasoline tanks buried in the ground with a total capacity of 1900 gallons. Four oil tanks are to be

TRAIN LOAD IF
 BUCKS ARRIVE
 FOR AR|ZON|ANS

After months of effort, at a consid- erable outlay of money, District Man ager Quinlan has at last succeeded in securing train load of the famous Buick Nalve-in- head automobiles for Phoenix and Arizona. Quinla9. says that an undertaking of this magnitude has never before been attempted by any Arizona distributor.
 Arizonians have wanted Bucks, and many have waited as long as six months to get their favorite car. For the past two years the demand for Buick cars has been so enormous that factory production has not been able to keep up with the popular demand. The immense Buick plant at Flint, Mich. has been taxed to production ca pacity. Recent large additions has en- abled the Buick people to increase their daily output of cars until the Buick plant today is producing be- tween 500 and TOO cars daily.
 Probably the most difficult of all cars to purchase is a Buick. The Buick is standard of motor ear to compare by. It is a safe investment and the record of past performances assures the Buick owner that he is getting a with long life, and a car that is dependable under all circum- stances.
 The Babbitt company appreciates the loyalty of the hundreds who have waited for Bucks here in the Salt River valley. Arizonians may now have the rare satisfaction of owning a car that is the acme of perfection wherever cross country tours lead, over hills, through sandy roads, or on long steady grades. Everybody knows that the valve-in head means Buick. While economy beauty, comfort and stability, for which Buick cars have long been noted appeals to the owner, it is this sense or feeling of reserve power in the Buick valve-i head mo- tor that adds the final touch to con- tented motoring under all conditions.
