The Remarkable Endurance of
the Velie

Among the many makes OF autos
that will be on exhibition at the Auto
show in Newport June 3rd and 4th
will be found the Velie, F. D. Burns
of Newport has the agency for this
make of cars. The durability and
superiority of the Velie line can in no
better way be given to the public than
the following story of a "a felie
touring which conquered the Grand
Canyon of the Colorado river in a
recent test.
The car made it's hazardous descent
from the Canyons top rim to the very
edge of the Colorado River, sliding
and tumbling downward 5000 feet in
to the very bowels of the earth and
then climbing out again under it's
own power without an outside assis-
tance. The steep sides of the canyon
and the narrow walls at times would
hardly allow the car to pass. The
way led over rocks of every size and
shape, through deep sands such as
motor cars seldom encounter; through
almost every known species of cac-
tus; where. there never was a road
and probably never will be. The
Velie took all this tremendous punish
ment without repairs of any nature;
the radiator during the entire trip.
This is no doubt the hardest test
ever handed motor car and the
Velie finished with perfect score.
Not since the Velie battered it's way
into the Yosemite Valley a year ago
had it's performance been rivaled. To
the Gold Cup of the Yosemite, to its
splendid record on Pixies Peak, to it's
gold Trophy from Great Britain, it
now adds it's latest triumph, success
full descent into the Grand Canyon
to the very edge of the Colorado
river, and climb out again. The
twists and strains were terrific, the
Velie at times running at angles just
short of upsetting.
The 1921 line consists of five and
seven passenger touring cars, sedans,
coupes, roadsters and speedsters.

Something of Interest About the
Buick

Interesting facts concerning the new
| line of 1921 Bucks of which there are
seven models.
The three passenger, roadster, the
passenger Coupe, the five passenger
Sedan, large four passenger coupe
seven passenger touring and seven
passenger Sedan, all of which are
equipped with the Buick Valve-in-
Head motor. -
Those who are mechanically in
| clined find the changes in the Twenty
One Buick line are not confined to I'M
proved body types. Rather, the cars
have been developed as whole, not
fe-designed.
Among the many refnements are
those that serve to make motoring in
a Buick of still greater comfort and
pleasure. For one thing, the adjust
ment and care of working parts in
the motor and OH the chassis have
been made more convenient. The adj
justment of the clutch, for instance,
wrench directly beneath the floor
board.
Water can be drained from the ra-
diator by simply turning a handle
situated inside the hood. Much in
the same way, oil can be drained from
the crank-case, over coming the
usual task of removing the oil plug.
The Buick Valve-in-Head motor
with it's automatically fabricated
rocker arms, now has it's timing gears
automatically fabricated from the oil
reservoir in the crank-case.
Batteries in the closed cars are ac-
cessible through small door in the
floor board. Both front and rear
springs on these models have been
improved insuring smooth riding
qualities over all manner of roads.
Front springs on the closed cars, as
we'll as on the seven-passenger open
car, are equipped with snubbers.
All open models are equipped with
the new Buick patented top, which
by eliminating an additional bow,
leaves clear, unobstructed vision in
all directions. Side curtains, that
swing with the doors, are plainly
marked on the inner edge to show
their proper positions.
And, so it follows down through
the long list of improvements, show
ing that Buick designers and en-
gineers have not lost sight of details
in working toward the bigger things.
A new Buick quality has been es-
tablished-a quality that comes after
twenty years experience in building
a motor car that has more than
justified unwavering fidelity to ac-
cepted engineering ideals. 49,

AVOID OvERHEATING GARAGE
Sudden Change Of Temperature Is-Apt
to Cause varnished Coating of
Body to Crack.

While it is, of course, most advan-
tageous to heat the garage by some
means or other during the cold
months, there is another extreme that
should be, avoided. II the heat is too
intense. the sudden change of tempera-
ture when the vehicle is taken out
into the cold air, or when it enters
the everheated garage after being in
the cold, is apt to cause the vanished
panels to cheek and fine cracks to ap-
pear In the finely finished varnish
coating of the body.

Cement Must Be Heated.

1t Is often convenient to have a CO
ment that will resist considerable tenn
peratures. Here is the recipe for a
good notwithstanding cement: Take
ffty parts of sulphur, one part Of
resin and one part Of tallow. Take
these. ingredients together and add fine
powdered glass to form a paste. This
cement must be heated before being
used.

NO CHANCE
CARP TO MEET
GIBBONS SOON
Needs at Least Six Weeks for His
Broken Hand to Heal, Says
Physician.

just following the doctors orders,

announced today. The boxer
, hand, broken in his battle with the
victorious Dempsey last Saturday.
probably will take about six weeks
to heal, his physician has estimated,
and it was not believed the Euro
pean champion could do any box
ing before that time.
Thus Descamps precludes the
possibility of a bout between Car
pentier and Tom Gibbons in >the big
Jersey City arena on Labor day.
Tex Richard, promoter of the re-
cent encounter, announced last
night, ne might arrange such bout.
Descamps said he was highly in
favor OF the match as soon as
Georges hand is healed and he has
had sufficient time to train.
Gibbons AMI Carpenter would
make a great match" continued the
manager. THE weight was too
much for Georges Saturday, but
Gibbons is nearer his size, is
clever boxer and a real contender
for the light heavyweight champion
ship"
Carpenters plans are somewhat
indefinite, but it was learned that
he is seriously considering taking a
trip to France before he engages in
another bout in this country. The
defeated challenger shows no mo-
roseness over his defeat, but on the
contrary, is patiently waiting until
he can appear in the ring to de-
fend his own title He has received
hundreds of messages congratu-
lating him on the game fight he put
up against his heavier opponent.
Today Carpenter visited New
York to attend a dinner in honor of
the visiting journalists of France
and England, who came TO attend
the bout. Descamps and Lieuten-
ant Pierre Mallet, Georges close
friend, accompanied him.

Notes of the Game

Wire stopped one of Jim Mat
thews' speed balls on the point, a
la Georges Carpenter, in the sec
ond round. 1t sounded like a
sleep-producer but, surprising
after assuring himself and buddies
that nothing was out of place.
Murphy proved to Shollenberger
in the first inning that he is the
faster man. Murphy was perched
on third as result of his single
and Schweitzer's safe drive to CEN
ter. Cole rolled to Mack and Muir
ply raced in to within a half-dozen
feet Of the plate. Murphy saw
Sholly with the ball in hand and
switched back to third. Sholly
gave chase but was obliged to toss
to Aftermath in the last 10 feet. At
that the decision was a close one
against Murph.
Cummings went back against the
right center fence in the fourth to
nail a blow off Lords bat. Jones,
who was on second, had rounded
third, and was unable to retrace to
the halfway station ahead of the
relay.
Murphy's one-handed stab of
Shollenberger's line smash in the
fifth was the real outstanding bit of
sensational work The short stop
per went several feet into the air,
held it with his gloved hand, and
completed an easy double play on
Aftermath at second.
1t was a fairly even exhibition
between Berg and Matthews. Berg
struck out four against Matthews
three. On the other hand. Berg
walked six while Matthews gave
only three passes. Still, the box
score reveals that Matthews hit
three batters. Yet Berg went him
two better on the free stuff with
MS pair of wild pitches.
Manager McQuillan gave his bat
ing order something of a shakeup
or the afternoon. Benson was
shifted to clean up position, Cole to
bird, Connolly to fifth and Cum
n1ngs was shunted to sixth.
