Fans Are Wrong in Thinking That
Arbiter Is BulIheaded-Few Games
Would Be Finished if Arguments
Were Allowed.

Entirely too many fans have an idea
that umpircs stick TO their bad de-
cisions out of sheer bullheadedness
Those fans are almost invariably
wrong. Every umpire time and again
in the season understands in a flash
after he has decided one way that he
should have decided another, but If
he reversed himself, thus encouraging
kicks, protests and delays, he would
lose his job in short order, writes an
Eastern scribe.
Very few fans stop to consider why
the rule against umpires reversing
themselves on decisions Of fact is al
most as unalterable as the laws of the
Medes and Persians, but the rule is
absolutely necessary if any ball game
is to be finished i'm less time than is
required for one of those three-day
cricket matches.
If umplres were to heed arguments,
proofs and figures and reverse them
selves, they would do nothing but
hold court, and few bah games would
go more than one inning, as enough
disputed decisions would ordinarily
arise in the first round to keep the
ump engaged all the rest of the after.

PRESIDENTS CARS

Believes Cooperation Should
Prevail Among Car Users
In Nation.

The White House automobiles
have new A. A. A. radiator en-
blems. President Warren G. Hard
ing is a member of the Marion
Automobile Association
which is a part of the Ohio State
Association that is af-
fliated with the American Automo-
bile Association. At the direction
Of David Jameson, president of the
national body, seconded by +. F.
Bentley, head Of the Ohio associa-
tion, the A. A. A. headquarters here
had special emblems made for the
official governmental cars showing
that the car user believed in To-
caIity, State and nationwide mo-
toring cooperation.
Having made numerous road
trips between Washington and
Marion. most of the route being
over the "Old National Road"
President Harding has repeatedly
come in contact with actual high
way conditions. and in consequence
has given the subject no small
amount of attention. One point
which he has always emphasized
has had to do with proper main
tenance after construction and this
opinion has been expressed again
and again. There is a belief that
in any future Federal help to the
States in highways, the Head OF
the Nation" will insist upon a
maintenance provision which shall
be definitely expressed.

will this hurt the tires?
A. II the car runs empty you can
safely lower the pressure five pounds
or even more and still operate the

eighty pounds is recommended for
your car because it is assumed that

Autos with New Prin-
ciple April 20.

The hrst three Big Birminghams
recently completed at the Biz
minrham Motors plant, in Detroit,
Mich.-will arrive in Washington
for exhibition purposes about April
20, according to advices received
by A. e. Mechem. District sales
manager for Birmingham Motors.
with offices at 4o4 Evans Building.
The cars will start on a test tour
from Detroit in a few days, and
will travel thence to Washington,
A. L. Sargent. engineering expert
of the local agency, and formerly a
well-known automobile racer In
California; has left for Detroit to
pilot one of the cars.
Birmingham Motors has made a
striking departure from standard
automobile manufacture, in that the
Big Birmingham is equipped with
specially made cross-springs instead
of axles. This feature was first
adopted in the little Cornelian car,
which Mr. Mechem has exhibited
here for several weeks as the fore
runner of the Big Birmingham, and
which Is now being displayed IN
Baltimore. The no-axle principle
has been perfected in the Birming-
ham, which interests bought out the
Cornelian.
The new feature eliminates the
rocks and shakes almost invariably
associated with automobile travel.
BY means of the new principle the
Birmingham can attain higher
rate Of speed than any other pas
senger car, and yet reserve safety
and comfort.
The Birmingham organization
will manufacture no parts. 1t will
buy standard parts for the Big Bir-
mingham and will assemble the ma
chine. This allows quantity pro-
duction and permits the prewar
prices established by Birmingham
Motors for its product.
An assembling plant, covering ten
acres, will be erected in jamestown,
n. Y, and options have been Sc
cured for sixty additional acres for
purposes of expansion. II is esti-
mated that 500 cars will be the
Jamestown plants daily output
when the Big Birmingham is put on
the market.

Q. Is it possible to run my car
without a battery? A friend told
work. Yet he wants to bet me that
it can be done.
A. Your friend is quite right in
saying that your car can be run
without a battery, but it cannot be
started without one. The fact is
that in. your car, after a certain
speed is reached, the generator takes
the whole load and also charges
the battery. II the battery Is dis
connected entirely the car can be
made to go only II it is towed or
rolled down hill in gear until the
engine is turning over fast enough
so that the generator supplies the
current. After getting under way
the engine must be kept running
at about $50 revolutions or more
otherwise it will stop.
How Is II that when I go to start
my car. the starter works all right
yet the engine won't fire? The mix
ture is good. I can keep the start
er on for twenty seconds and get a
good mixture. but she won't start.
Then all of a sudden take a notion
to crank by hand and II fires. The
engine Is new, and tight.-C. D. NJ.
There Is no doubt that the trouble
is due to poor ignition caused by too
great a drain on the battery at the
time Of cranking. When you crank
by hand there Is enough voltage.
You can start with the starter il the
battery is low by quickly releasing
the starting button or pedal so
that for an instant the engine is
turning over and the starter is not
in use. To prove that this is correct.
the next time IL happens just get a
battery which you know is a good
one.
