PRIZE CUP FOR
PLANES GIVEN
To AERO CLUB
John m. Larsen Wants to Find
Most Efficient Air
Carrier.

Announcement is made OF new
airplane trophy donated to the Aero
Club of America and TO be competed
for next month at the aero meet in
Omaha. Nebraska. at the same time
as the Pulitzer Trophy.
According to John NJ. Larsen the
donor, it is calculated TO bring out
the most efficient airplane for general
purposes and TO use his own words
will show the plane that can carry
the most load, the greatest distance IN
the shortest time, and for the least
money"
Larsen believes that this contest
will demonstrate to the public the fact
that we actually have in our posses.
sion planes that can carry freight or
passengers as cheaply as some other

once this fact is established, then the
government will take care OF the 's-
sentials such as landing fields and or.
ganized airways and soon regular lines
will be in operation.
The trophy itself is a most beaui-
full piece of work and should be on
display within a few days. 1t is con.
structed OF gold and silver and por-
trays the development of the com
mercial airplane from the carly Mt

is done. II small carbon particles
should get between the cylinder and
piston, expose the cylinder wall and
wipe IL clean. Care should be taken
that the carbon scraped off is not
thrown onto the ignition unit or other
engine parts. For this reason II IL
safer to cover such suits with cloth
Every particle of carbon around the
cylinder head studs should he busted
off. otherwise these particles will in
terfere with the fit of the head.
"In assembling cover the gasket
lightly with grease or n heavy oil
and see that it rests against surfaces
that are clean and smooth. After the
head is dropped in place the tighten.
ing of the nuts should be such that the
head is not sprung. DO not tighten
one end of the head completely and
then the opposite end. Tighten all
nuts slightly then gradually tighten
nuts as nearly opposite as possible so
that the head when in place will fit
perfectly all over. The hose conneC-
tiOns should be covered with shellsC.
The use of proprietary compounds
while effective is not recommended
unless the piston rings are a good fit.
Some compounds are guaranteed not
to be injurious to the lubriCating oil
but so many after leaking down into
the crankcase do have a bad effect
on the oil. There are some good
liuuid removers."

see that carbon combines with oxy.
gen to form other compounds, and In
the same degree IL can combine
with hydrogen gas and with hydro
gen and oxygen and with other ele.
ments.
THE fuel and the oil you use in
the engine or in the transmission IL
posed OF a number Of smaller com
pounds OF hydrogen and carbon;
hence the name hydrocarbon. In re-
filming crude oil we get from IL va
rious kinds of hydrocarbons from
the colorless gasoline To the black
residiums.
Carbon Is Residue.
1T is because we use gasoline and
oil that. we are forced TO put up with
what we call carbon troubles. III
some way could be found for burn
ing the gasoline completely, II we
did not have to use the choke, or
II we could avoid oil getting into the
CONFUSION chambers, we could run
our engines indefinitely without ever
thinking about carbon.
The most effective way 0f removing
carbon Is, OF course, by means OF
scraping. In the case OF an engine

cylinder head. You can thus see the
results OF the work. Where the h"ad

means of oxygen. The cost OF this Is

work is quickly done. requiring from
one to two hours. The oxygen method
Is recommended only where the head
Is not detachable and the owner does
not wish TO go to the expense Of h.IV-
ing the cylinders detached from the
crankcase.
The work OF sCraping carbon from
an engine with a detachable head is
quite simple and can be performed ly
any owner. After draining the W.T. r,
the hose connections are disconneCt@d.
In some engines certain parts are at

also must be detached, 80 that aft~r

Wisely and Well

In a letter recently addressed
by Senator Townsend to l.. r..
Warford upon his departure on
a countrywide good roads promo
ton tour, there IL a brief state
ment OF a good roads policy that
deserves the careful considera-
ton OF everyone interested IN
this paramount issue. In a para
graph this statement sums up
well and wisely the fundament-
ais OF real good roads develop
ment and we might make II the
platform OF our endeavors along
these lines:
'If we are to build wisely and
we'll we must first provide funds,
based on wise and equitable tax
laws and bond issues. Second,
locate the roads where they will
adequately serve present and
probable future traffic needs;
third, build roads that will carry
the traffic to which they Will be
subjected; fourth, provide con-
slant and efficient maintenance,
and. fifth, We must regulate
traffic so that II will not destroy
them. Little has been done
along the latter line but our
States must give this immediate
attention If we are to save the
millions already invested and
soon 10 be invested under the
Federal Highway Act"
