Bitter Riualry Between 2 Small
 Towns Causes Scandal Inuoluing
 Star Athletes Of Two Colleges
Carlinvile Folks Determined to Clean Up Taylorvile But Were Cleaned Themselves When Their Rivals, With
 Nine College Players in Lineup, Grabbed Game

CHICAGO, Jan. 2S-(By the Asso- ciated Press) The bitter rivalry be- tween two small towns, which be came so acute that approximately S100,000 was bet on football game, was the real cause of the athletic scandal which resulted in disquai;:l- cation last night of nine University of Illinois athletes, and which threat ems to reach into Notre Dame Univer- sity.
 A group of citizens of Carlinville, Ills, it was learned tonight, declded last fall financially to clean out" the rival town of Taylorville, by optain- ing 10 college stars to play on their football team, and with victory ap- parently assured, to bet the limit on the annual contest. But Taylorville learned of the plan, obtained nine col lege stars. and not only defeated Car linville, but is said to have won nearly S50,000 by covering every Car linville bet made.
 Ten Notre Dame players were in the Carlinville lineup, according to statements by citizens. while the nine disqualified Illinois men played on the Taylorville eleven.
 In the Carlinville lineup, according to persons associated with the team, were Gus Desch, member of the American Oylmpic team and world champion 440-yard hurdler; Chester Wynne, selected by some as all-west- ern conference fullback, and John Mohardt, all-American selection of several football writers. All played on the Notre Dame eleven last fall.
 In 1920, Carlinville won from Tay- lorville, 10 to ', at Carlinville. Tay- lorville then boasted that next year, with their team at home, there would be a different story.
 Several Carlinville people then con- ceived the safe betting" idea of fill ing their lineup with college stars. Overtures were made to Notre Dame men, according to packers of the Car linville team, and it was agreed to pay the 10 men $200 each plus their expenses, the total being S270O-
 The persons who arranged the af- fair passed the word to their friends to bet the limit. A special train was hired and a band taken to Taylor vile. Farmers arranged to join the pilgrimage and in nearly every case, a well-filled wallet was taken along.
 Each person who received the "con- fidential" information, apparently passed it on to another friend. for gradually the word spread into Fay lorville. At the same time, Taylor vile received word that Carlinville was ready to back it's team w.'-l t.e family jewelry if necessary.
 Consternation spread through Tsy- lorville at the idea of sending their

Correct t Ignition
 Will Give Mo t or
 Maximum of Power

"Feal motor efficiency, by this we mean maximum power, is due largely to ignition at the proper time IF the cycle of operation" says Frank Thay- CT. eff the spark is not perfectly timed, causing an cratic ignition, there will be lowering of efficiency causing waste If fuel and loss of pow CT. Modern cars are so constructed that a high degree of perfection has been reached in the ignition system, yet through wear in the daily use of car, there is a general loosening up, a breakage of springs, and a slipping of timing parts.
 When a mixture of proper propcr- tions is compressed in the cylinders the spark ignites only the gas in its immediate vicinity. but the flames spread rapidly, igniting the entire mass. The gas heated to an intense degree begins to expand, and exerts an enormous pressure on the walls of the combustion chamber and the piston head. If the degree of com pression is not great enough the heat required to speedily ignite the gas will be lacking. For utmost efficien- cy, the compression must be at its maximum, and ignition must occur at the proper moment.
 We frequently find trouble equi- valent to running with too far ad- vanced spark. This is due to some defect iii the timing, causing the 1n- terrupter points to open sooner than the proper time. If the motor is run ming slowly this will cause ignition to occur before the compression stroke has been completed and the piston head will be forced sharply downward causing a knock, due to the sudden reverse force. The result is strain on the mechanism and a loss of power. If, however, the spark occurs late, the piston will be start ing downward on it's firing stroke. The compression gases will lose in heat, causing a slower propagation of the flame, and if this slow burning mixture improperly compressed es' capes into the exhaust valve the re- suit will be an Overheated exhaust ; larger area of cylinder wall has been exposed to the intense heat. The water in the jackets can take care oi only the maximum heat, caused by proper ignition, so the resultant over f heated cylinders cannot therefore be taken care of by the cooling system and an overloaded motor is the result
 "The timing mechanism of the pres | ent high speed motor is extremely | delicate Any wear or play in the mechanical parts controlling the fig milton equipment alters the time a
 which the spark flashes it's wa! through the compressed gas in tho cylinders. 1t is therefore a wise pro caution. for the car owner to hay, his spark checked occasionally by al expert. because in trying to eorrec
 any trouble himself, he is far nor
 apt to only materially increase it."

"SKY PILOT' OF THE FAR NORTHWEST FINDS NEW YORK LONESOMEST PLACE IN WORLD
By ALEXANDER HERMAN

NEW YORK, Jan. 2S.-Out of the snows of the northwest where he worked among the mmberjacks, "Sky Eliot" Jack Mccall comes to New York and finds it-
 The coldest, lonesomest place in the world!
 Life in the camps may be bad
 But it is far worse in New York" |" said Mccall with snap of his jaw.
 "I'm going back to the woods as soon as I can. ..
 Men Are Square
 There men are hard-some of them are bad. But they are above board and square and big-hearted.
 One knows his friends and his enemies. But here-." He raised his hands in despair
 If this is living in a modern so- ciety, give me the primitive woods folk every time. They may lack a polish the city man has but they have something indefinitely more valuable "a big heart"
 Fifteen years go Mccall was a iumberjack in the Minnesota woods. ''I was hard mana husky and a drinker. I could scrap like wildcat. How many of your New Workers could do as much?
 "One day I went on a spree. wound up in missfon-broke. Some thing happened. became converted. Two years later I went into the field-to carry on.
 "The men weren't all two-fisted, wild-eyed scrappers. Many of them were quiet and peaceful.

 Quietly, the word was passed no: so fear Carlinville-that a means of de feating their rivals plans had been found.
 When the time for the game came, a group of Carlinville citizens began checking up in one corner oI ,.le Ileid. They found their citizens reached the same conclusion.
 When the Carlinville eleven cam on the field, the visiting rooters rose to cheer.
 What are we yelling for? That's the Taylorville team," said Carlin- vile woman.
 "Oh, no, that's CarlinvnIe,'- replied Taylorville policeman.
 ''I guess I know our boys, and not one of those fellows is from Carlin- ville," indignantly replied the woman
