gam biers sought in connection with
the baseball fixing inquiry. undoubted- :

their appearance before the grand Jury
assured to-day.
Whatever facts Assistant District At
torney Smith will be able to marshal
against the gamblers suspected OF be-
ing Mt the bottom Of the scandal they
will be strengthened considerably by
the action of Val O'Farrell, head of a
detectives agency at Firth Avenue and
Forty y-second Street. OFarrcll had fur
nished Maclay Hovne, States Attorney
of Cook County, Illinois, with impor-
tant documents and aflidavits whereby
Hoyne declared he would be able to OBJ
tain convictions of those involved in
the baseball scandal.
No Public Official Involved
At OFarrell's Office it was said that
the detective, who was present at the
Hotel Astor when Arnold Rothstein is
said to have turned down the fixing
proposal. would be willing to turn over
similar documents and other important
information to the local prosecuting at
torney. When this was brought to AS
slstant District Attorney Smiths atson-
ton he Immediately arranged a g.. l-r-
enec with O'Farrell for to- day
kumors that a public officials and an
oil man were being sougn. as con fed
crates in the fixing plot we're spiked
by Mr.. Smith yesterday. There is no
public official or oil man involved in
this matter, so far as have been able
to learn" he said, "and l haven't heard
of any such men being mentioned in
connection with the affair. This whole
thing appears to have been a gamblers
pool, pure and simple. Some have it
that this pool totaled close to $500 ,OO0'

AS an instance Of this, in our test driving
IN cross>country runs, we have made over
twenty miles to the gallon of gasoline. Of
course, in congested city driving, the mile.
age will not be SO high.
Average tire mileage can be expected to
exceed $4,000 miles. In our extensive
experimental driving of this new car, we
have had some tires in fair condition at
the end Of 5000 miles.
1t is an agreeable car to operate, having
the easiest possible steering, the lightest
clutch action, the shortest turning radius,
and, we believe, all those qualities that
you would like to have in a lightweight
car for general purposes.
Theworkmanship and finish are Packard
throughout.

WYE have always made large cars de-
w signed for maximum speed, great
power, and all the roominess that goes
with long wheelbase. The ultimate de-
velopment has been the Twin Six, which
has firmly established itself in the regard Of
the public, and which we have been pro.
ducing andmarketingf for number ofyears.
Packard reputation for motor cars rests
solidly the 7ovin Six, and it always will!

The greatest obtainable luxury, the
maximum power, and the ultimate in
road-ability, must always be found in the
large car. That is the field in which the
Packard Twin Six will always be dominant.
In this new car we have not attempted
to compete in that field, but rather to
produce an active, easily>operated, high
grade,'light car, with all the elements of
efficiency, economy of operation and,
above all, long life.
There are Packard cars today, designed
years ago, that are nearing the half,million
mark in miles travelled.
The new Single Six is also, we conf
IDENTIFY believe, a TEN-YEAR CAR.
The price Of the Touring Car is 5000
at Detroit.

But there has for years been an insistent
demand for another car to supplement- the
Twin Six: car Of shorter wheelbase and
Lighter weight, general-purpose car of
great maneuverab bility in traffic, one that
would park iii short space at the curb.
And the demand was that this light car
should give unusual gasoline mileage and
tire mileage, and finally, that it should be
designed and built Packard wise, and
therefore be able to keep out of the repair
shop longest and to require least attention
from its owner Or driver.
We thought it over and studied the
problem for good many years, during
all of which we were accommodating ex.
perience in the design and production of
the highest possible grade of car.
We have at various times during the
past ten years designed lightweight COM
panion to our larger cars, but were never
entirely satisfied with our efforts.
Then the war broke out in 1914, and
believing that America would inevitably
become involved, we turned our attention
to designing airplane engines, and from
then to the close of the war, had a thor
oughly successful experience in designing
and manufacturing airplane motors, which,
as you know, must give the greatest power
with the least possible weight.

The 1O-Year Car

We learned great deal through this
experience that was applicable to the
automobile, and towards the close OF
the war we felt we were finally we'll
equipped by experience to design the
lightweight car.
Meanwhile, with a constantly growing
talk Of congestion in traffic, and increasing
cost Of gasoline, tires and other SUPPLIES.
the demand for the light car became more
and more insistent.
We have taken several years for the
development and perfection Of this new
Packard, but we believe we have accom-
pllshed what we set out to do, and take
now a pride in announcing that the
Packard Single Six will soon be ready. It
will be manufactured alongside the Twin
Six and by the same matured and expe,
rienced organization.
The new car is of fve>passenger capac.
ity and will be offered in Touring.
Runabout, Coupe and Brougham or Sedan.
The motor has six cylinders, 33sH bore
by 49, stroke, 1t is therefore of medium
size, and despite its light weight is very
sturdily built.
1t is equipped with the Fuelizer.
The Single Sir motor is new through
out, but it is not experimental.
1t includes every principle of good
engineering that our experience has shown
to make for maximum power, coupled
with silent operation and freedom from
annoying troubles. We have failed of
our intentions if we have not produced
a motor that will run longer and require
less attention than any other.
Our chassis design is very simple and
clean. Its light weight, together with its
unusually efficient motor, result in very
economical car.

amount of business in force in North

Levi Etzell dropped in to see us this
morning to tell US of the narrow es-
cape he had Wednesday night from
having his threshing rig burned up
on his farm near Rogers. Along about
about 1890 a. m. an alarm Of fire
was turned in to him by young man
of that vicinity and Mr.. Etzel and his
crew made about as fast time to that
fire as friend Billy DuVall makes when
we have a fire in the city. BY hard
and quick work the fire was put out
and the only thing burned up was the
straw wagon. The tool box of the
engine was badly scorched. The
young man in question tried to put
the fire out and partly succeeded but
it was getting too strong for him and
he turned in the alarm. The funny
part of the whole affair is that this
young man and his girl were out
rather late that night "spooning" and
it is due to that fact, that the fire was
discovered. Mr.. Etzell is certainly
pleased that this happened to be this
young man and woman's evening out
and that they had apparently forgot
ten that time was flying fast. The
fire probably started from a spark
from the engine.

That Wednesday, September %, Will
be banner day in Valley City unless
something unforeseen happens, is the
opinion expressed by officials in charge
Of the races here on that day. A
number of applications have been re-
ceived from outside racers, together
with their entry money, as we'll as To-
cal talent, some of which we believe
is about the best in the state, judging
from the records made ON other
tracks throughout the state. The dis
lance to be run by the racers will be
rs miles, and should prove test of
endurance as we'll as speed. Purses
large enough to attract more than
amateur racers have been offered, and
will prove a big drawing card for the
best talent to be obtained. Another
feature of the day will be the leap
from the airplane of Harry Davidson
by Mr.. Boom, who will dive head
first from the plane, with parachute
tied to his body. Several dare devils
have lost their lives in this way, and
while we hope that no casualties oc-
cur, it will prove real thriller for
the spectators.
