The school of tire repairing con ducted by the Goodyear Tire and Rubber company of California at Los Angeles factory is meeting with great deal of favor among the vul- ritory.
 Already more than one hundred students. representing practically every section of the west as well as the three weeks course of instruction and gone back to their respective To- calities with a thorough knowledge of the most modern and approved methods of tire repairing
 J. R. Wells. manager of accessories and repair material sales at the Goodyear factory. in commenting on the work which the school Is doing. says:
 During the last few years the re- pairing of pneumatic tires has devel- oped into a business of tremendous importance and proportions and to- day it has become firmly established The repair man who is we'll versed in the ever changing methods of vulcan izing and the constantly improved materials which are now on the mar ket. has before him a field of un- usual money making opportunities.
 He is in position to give valuable assistance to car owners who desire to give increased attention to the care and conservation of their tires; he is in a position to show them how road troubles can be mininnized by pre- cautionary measures: how the inbuill mileage can be preserved by repairs made from tire to time. and how tire. that otherwise would fail because o some fault can be made to give thou | sands of miles more service.
 | Up to a few years ago divers meth ods of vulcanizing and tire repairini were employed, many of them ex ceedingly poor because of the fac | that there had never been any SC standard of correct methods to b used, and 1t is only recently tha schools such as the Goodyear repai school have been established offerinl excellent courses in this profession
 The vulcanizer of today is in mucl the same position as the teacher th | physician or any other professions | man. He must be familiar with tn

or badly pitted or Q stem bent or badly carbonized is to remove the valve, examine it and measure IL. While the compression test is all right to check losses due to poor valve seating, it must be determined that there is no leakage elsewhere. as. for example, around the cylinder head joint or valve plugs, if such be used. or past poorly fitting pistons or rings, or due to worn cylinders, etc
 After a valve is removed by means of valve spring compressor permit ting, it should first be carefully cleaned by submersion in kerosene, then wiped with a clean cloth. Ex- anime the face of the valve for small black spots. Place the valve upright on a level surface and measure four or five distances from head to plate This will give you a good check on
 the trueness of the head A variation
 that can be measured with an ordi- nary rule may be taken as being
 enough to cause poor valve seating,
 hence leakage of mixture past the
 valve when it is closed A valve with a warped head should be replaced
 Test the stem for straightness Place the stem on a level plate, while the head of the valve hangs over the edge of the plate. The eye can in stantly detect if the stem is not straight If it is bent little 1t may be strengthened in vise- A bent stem may cause the valve to stick open, or it also may cause it to return to its seat too slowly If the valve stem is straight it should be checked l for diameter The best way to de | this is first to polish the stem wftf a piece of emery cotton cloth anc then try it in its. particular guide

pression loss but does not indicate where that loss exists.
 The owner of a car should bear in mind that valve heads work in an extremely hot atmosphere. since the heads are in the combustion chamber and consequently are exposed to the flame of the explosions. They must therefore be able to withstand the terrific heat without warping, be- cause if they should warp the effect iveness of the valve to make perfect joint with its seat would at once be destroyed.
 The reason car manufacturers state that valves are surrounded by ade- auate water space" is because they wish to show that the valves being properly cooled are not likely to be affected quickly by the heat. In some engines where provision has not been made for the proper cooling Of the valves the engines give continual trouble from loss of compression, valves sticking. valves requiring ire ouent grinding, misfiring due to ir- regularities in the valve action, etc The only safe way an owner can tell whether valve head is warped

 Today many new repair materials have been produced. and new meth ods have been perfected and the vulcanizer who is not entirely fnmi- liar with both these new materials and new methods of application Is all most out of the running in the keen competition which exists in the tir,- repair business today.
 In order to give the established vulcanizer. or the man who contem- plates making vulcanizing a business an opportunity to learn these. new methods. as we'll as to give him a thorough understanding Of the new repair materials which are now being used. the Goodyear school of tire re- pairing has been established It is indeed an interesting group oi men who gather in the class room as win be noted from the photograph above In every class representative | from almost every section of tho West can be found-all intent on in- creasing their store of knowledge ir order to broaden their education for work in their chosen field

KEWANEE PLAYS
GENESEO FRIDAY
Especial Correspondence


Geneseo, Dec. 6.-The basketball
game which will be played here
next Friday night between the Ke-
vance and Geneseo high school
teams is attracting a great deal of
attention in this city. This is the
first game of the season and will
be held at Weimer's theatre, where
all of the local games will be
played
1t was not at first determined
whether there would be any sale
of season tickets except to high
school students. The price for the
season of eight games was fixed at
$3.50. But when the solicitors went
into the business section Of the
city last Saturday the demand for
season tickets by the general pub
lie was sufficient to justify Prin-
cipal Darnall in recognizing that
demand. AS a result the general
public is being supplied with sea-
son tickets at 81 each. General ad-
mission per single game is 50
cents. This may he necessarily in
creased to so cents for the Canton
game only as the expense of bring
ing that team here is far greater
than any other on the schedule
Tickets for single games will also
be sold at the Depauw &, Iversen
restaurant on the day of each game
from 3 to : p. N. This arrange
ment has been made to avoid the
crowding at the door which caused
so much Inconvenience last year.
The Canton team was the con-
tender with Marion in the inalS in
the state high school tournament
last year. The team remains in
tact this season, so it may be real
lied that one of the strongest teams
which has ever appeared here will
be seen when Canton comes for
the return game. Genese0 goes to
Canton for the first game on date
of Jan. 6.
Preceding the toss-up at next Fri
day nights game Rev. {. ". Por-
ter-Shfrley of the Unitarian church
will give short talk on Athletics
IN High Schools. The initial toss
up of the season will be made by
Mayor Charles G. Davis. At least
500 persons are expected to witness
this game between Kewanee and
Geneseo.
With Combs out of play because
Of inelgibility on account of his

sarily absented by injuries re
