Collins Heads
Peerless Cars

Expansion OF the P~eerleTs bust
ness IS predicted by automobile
men throughout the county. az a
result Of the transaction, last
week. whereby Richard H. Collins
assumed the active management
Of The Peerless Motor Car Com,
pany.
Mr.. Collins recently resigned as
active Vce-PreBident and Direc-
tor OF the Gene1al Motors Corpor-
alton aud President of tho Cadillac
Motor Car Company.
In financing the purchase OF o
substantial block OF Peerless stock,
Mr.. Collins acted solely for him,
self. No other motor car manufac'
.tursr OF group Of manufacturers
participated IN the transaction IN
any way. At a meeting OF the
Directors of the Peerless truck and
Motor Corporation Mr.. Collins was
elected president and general man.
ager OF the company.
Thd announcement came as the
result of negotiations which have
been under way for several months
and concIusiyely sets at rest re
ports heretofore current that Mr..
Collins would only become a stock
holder in the company without as
suming active management. The
fact that Mr.. Collins plans to
make his home in Cleveland and
to assume active control OF the
company Immediately indicates
that he sEpectes to bo fully in the
saddle in preparation for the 1929
ceason.
Mr. Collins has long ADMIRED
tho Peerless principles Of enEin.
cering. Intimate study Of Peerless
design and construction has con-
WINGED him that the line thorough
~ embodies the quality ideals
which have been his inspiration
during his entire career.
With characteristic promptness,
Mr.. Collins already has formulat'
ai definite plans for the expansion
Of the Peerless business. Details
OF those plans will be announced
from time to time.
Mr.. Collins stated that he would
giya his entire time and attention
to tho big Peerless plant in Cleye
land and that the company would
continue TO manufacture one OF the
worlds finest eIghtcylinder motor
cars.
Il am a firm believer in the
principle" he said that the direc,
tor or general manager OF a big
business like. the Peerless Com.
pany is only a trustee who must
at all times, be mindful OF the in
terests of the four groups thai
make for the success OF any enter
prise-the stockholders: because
they furnish the capital to ca4ry
on the business; the men who
make the product, because they
give It It's intrinsic value: The
men who sell 1t because the sue
cess Of the manufacturer dependa
on the success OF the merchants
who put the product in the hands
Of the public; and the men who
buy 1t, because after all. a alleges
body OF satisfied owners is the
greatest asset that any business
can possess and this satisfaction
results solely from the policy OF
giving the customer a full dollars
worth OF value"

DECLARES CLARK WAS NOT
IN MEX|CAN'S HANDS

MEXICO CITY, Mex, Sept. 21.-~G.
~ s.f--- Assertions are made here that
ienry Clark who was supposed to
have been captured by bandits and
held for ransom in chihuahua, has
been playing a little comedy for some
purpose and that he was never in the
hands Of bandits.
No effort is made to explain why
Clark should have attempted a decep-
tion beyond a hint that he might have
thought of collecting a ransom for
himself.
Clark is said to he Brit 'sh subject
and not an American. He is employed
by the International Land and Live
Stock Co, a Chicago corporation
which owns large tracts in Northern
dexico.
The assertion that Clark told of
imaginary bandits is similar to the
charge made against former Consul
". O. Jenkins, of Puebla, after he had
figured in a sensational $4,000 ram
som case.

Prospects for Winning Eleven
Best in Many Seasons; Team
Has Veteran Backs at Work.

ANNAPOLIS. Md, Sept. 2f.-U. n
S9-Confidence In the strength OF
the naval academy football team FOX
tne coming season is based largely on
the remarkable array Of backfleld tai
ent which Is available. A stiff, hard
fighting line has been quite the usual
thing at Annapolis for good many
years. and occasionally there has been
o. great back, like Douglas or Dalton,
but never has there been such large
number OF really high-grade backs as
are now on hand.
The squad did not lose a regular
from It's backfleld Of last year. and but
one or two OF the substitutes. Several
OF the old men are expected to reach
high standard this season, and all
are likely to show Improvement. Then
there is big new class with lot OF
ambitious and active youths, and there
is little doubt that 1t will yield some
thing.
The backfield which started against
the military academy last year was
made up OF Koehler, Conroy, Mckee
and Hamilton. Noyes, Rawlings,
Cruise and Barchet compose another
combination which is probably just as
strong. other good men who are still
available are Matthews, Taylor, Walk
er, Mills and cullen.
Koehler, on account OF his expert
ence. and cleverness, is probably the
most valuable OF the backs, IL not the
most brilliant. He Is playing on the
varsity for his fourth season. Koehler
does not get clear OF the secondary de-
Tense for long run, but he is re-
markable for his ability TO use even
small opening for very substantial
gain. Along the line he has hardly an
equal.
Many persons here are looking to
Hoyes and Conroy to develop real bril-
liancy in running with the bali. Noyes
played in most Of the Princeton and
army games last year and was the ma
vy's most brilliant performer He is !
heavier and stronger this year and |
should have a good season. Conroy !

RECORD SEASON IN 2!

NEW HAVEN, Conn, Sept. 2t-CU.
the painful memory Of the 1920 foot
ball season when the Ellis fell down be-
fore Boston College, Princeton and
Harvard.
Tad Jones, who left his business in
tercsts in Seattle last year in the at
tempt to bring Yale out of the rut, is
back again in charge of the squad. He
has been devoting his attention to the
gridiron since the close of last season
when his team was mauled by Har-
ward.
Yale says openly, that too much is
not expected of the team this year,
that Jones is laying the foundation Of
a system that may not begin to show
results for another year or two.
Prospects are none too bright for
team or for one that
will defeat Princeton or Harvard, as
both rivals in the big Three" have
a much brighter outlook.
II Jones Is able to fill Captain Calla-
hans place on the line and discover
some good material, the Blue ought to
have n fairly successful season, as the
schedule is none too hard.
The game with the military acad-
envy which viii mark the first trip OF
the cadets away from the Plains FOL

NAVY EXPECTS IT'S STRONG
BACKFIELD TO MAKE TEAM
VULNERABLE AGAINST FOES

good running back and good interfer-
er, while Hamilton, big. strong lad,
Is hard line hitter and excellent de-
fensive player. They will have Noyes
Rawlings, Cruise and Parchet as their
rivals for regular places in the back
field.
The outlook is for one of the most
powerful lines of recent years, as there
are several veterans and an abundance
of powerful fellows from last years
second eleven and from the new class.
The navy's greatest strength will lie
this year, however, in the best back
field material It has ever had. and in
this particular 1t is felt that 1t is in
better shape than any other college in
tho East. 7e
