SPEED ABILITY

Better than a mile a minute for
1 900 consecutive miles. This is the
established record of the Oldsmobile
Twin Four made about six months
ago in San Francisco on the Cotati
speedway, under the official newspa-
per observation.
1t is a record that is pointed to with
pride by the Snow and Tufts organi-
zation, Arizona state distributors, as
proof conclusive of the power, speed
and durabilit, of the Twin Four and
a, speed mark that will bring home
to the minds of the motoring public
the many merits of the Oldsmobile
Twin -Four.
The actual time as recorded by the
stop watches of the observers was
1000 miles in S99 minutes. The car
started on the record run at los
Sunday morning and crossed the fin
ish line of the one thousandth mile
at 4:04 Sunday afternoon, piling up
the very pleasing average of &c 23
miles per hour.
1--WE are mighty proud of the per-
formance of this car as it shows so
very clearly that, due to its splendid
oiling and cooling systems, the Olds
mobile Twin Four is capable of sus-
tanned high speed with open throt-
tie" declares Manager Bob Coulter,
"We knew this Baby Eight was ca
pable of withstanding a lot of pun
ishment and have notified most all
of the owners of this model that once
they get their motor properly broken
in, they can step on the throttle just
as hard as they want to and that the
motor will stand all the punishment
you can possibly give it and really
like it."
There are many automobiles that
can travel Cne mile or five miles
at the rate of Sc 2-3 miles per hour,
but when you ask them to travel
1000 miles at such speeds as to net
6S 2-3 miles per hour, that is an en-
tirely different story and there are
mighty few cars that can do it. The
greatest part of the journey had to
be driven at rs miles per hour, and
some Of the laps We're Travelled at
the rate of 50 miles per hour.
mot once in the thousand flying
miles did the motor falter or COM
plain against the severe strain to
which it was constantly being sub
jected.
1T proved again and again during
the test that it has power, speed and
stamina, and that it is equal to any
thing that even the most critical
drivers could demand.

FRANK ELLIOT IS
CONTENDER FOR
THREE-A HONORS

Consistently placing in the money
in every race event of the year Frank
Elliott, driver of the California made
Leach Special, is gathering plenty of
points and is one of the leaders thus
far for the 1922 A. A. A. champion
ship. Elliott drove the same car last
year with great success and although
he was in several serious accidents
and smashups. both he and his me-
chanician came through without a
scratch.
Eliiott's latest notable performance
was at the recent Fresno Raisin Day
150-mile race, where he won second
money and $50 points towards the
years speed title. His Leach per-
formed beautifully throughout and
showed plenty of speed.
The first success of the year was
on the Los Angeles speedway in
March, where Elliott picked up so
points and considerable prize money,
despite having few narrow escapes
from bad spills. Then in the sprint
race on April 5. he grabbed off the
fourth heat in good style at the fast
time of 1146 miles per hour and
would have been a figure in the finals
but was in a nasty clash with Klein
and Bordino but managed to get his
car back in the grind and still fin
ished within the money. His next
appearance was in the San Carlos
race two weeks later, where despite a
broken king bolt, he again managed to
annex championship points and prize
money.
The Leach is entered in all the big
race events of the year. with Elliott
at the wheel. Harry A. Miller. vice

Production of Overland and Will
mcknight cars has now passed the
400 daily mark, according to II. I'll.
Hotchkiss. of the Overland Arizona
company.
April production exceeded that of
any April since 1917 and even with
this large production orders con-
tinue to exceed it.
The company is employing 5000
workers. 1t is adding to the force
gradually and carries daily adver-
tisements in the papers for skilled
mechanics of various kinds.
A statement of the company says
that "Willys- Overland orders con-
tinue greatly in excess of production
in spite of the fact that shipments
exceeded those Of any April since
1917"
Without a dissenting vote pre-
ferred stockholders of the WHY'S
Overland, at a special meeting, rati-
fled the proposal of the directors for
funding of Overland bank debt by a
$17 100000 seven per cent bond issue.
The bonds will mature December l,

The action of the preferred stock
holders constitutes one Of the most
important steps in the placing of
Overland finances on a permanent,
sound basis.
The management win make no pre-
dictions as to probable yearly pro-
duction of the company, but it is
understood that if production during
the entire year is maintained on the
basis of the first quarter, the over
land viii have enjoyed one OF the
best years since the war.
Difficulty in getting raw materials
is holding back production to some
extent not only with the Overland
but with many other Toledo com
panies. This is especially true OF

curtailed programs the steel COM
