HUPMOb|LE PLANT
 IS ADDING SPACE

In accordance with building pro- gram adopted in the neighborhood of three years ago. the Hup Motor Car Corporation is. now adding new con struction to It's big plant on East Milwaukee avenue In Detroit which will increase the factory floor space by more than half million square feet.
 Completion of the new building now under process of erection will give the Hupmobile main plar- a total floor space of not less than l,570,000 square feet with as modern equipment and building design. it is said. as can be found in the indus try
 In addition to the main plant in Detroit there are five subsidiary Hupmobile manufacturing properties, four of which are owned by the Hupp Motor Car Corporation and the fifth controlled by 1t. all of the products of which are devoted to Hupmobile production.
 These are: A factory for gear and machine work in Jackson, Mich; Wis; Windsor( Ont. plant for Canadian shipping purposes; the De- troit Auto Sales Co., stamping com cern; and the Auto Metal Body Co. closed body factory in Springfield. Mass.
 The five subsidiary plants just mentioned have a combined floor space of approximately 1,1s0, 900 square feet. which. added to the main plant gives Hupmobile manufactur- ing facilities In floor space alone of at least 2,750,00o square feet.
 The new buildings insciude two four story wings added to the prin- cipal unit of the present plant, large four story building directly ad- 1acent to the unit. enlarged space for coal storage. etc.
 The two wings being added to the central unit simply complete what was originally designed as fo1.i wing structure. the first of which were erected approximately couple of years ago at the same time that other buildings. including the ex- port and distribution building, were erected
 In the erection of a building es- pecially designed for facilitating It's export distribution. Hupmobile at that time attained the distinction Of 5 being one of the few American mo- tor car manufacturing concerns of which the export business was in suf- ficient volume to warrant separate factory building exclusively de- voted to export uses.
 For many years Hupmohile has ranked high among American ex- port leaders and it Is understood that the company will be even more active in this respect In the future.
 Both of the new wings now under construction are to be used for fin ishing work exclusively. The first floor Of the new four story building will be used for the unloading of bodies shipped In from the Hupsno { bile Racine plant. Roller testing for motor perfection will occupy sij of the second floor while the two m per floors will be utilized f~w storar. requirements, and so on
 It is pointed out that the Hupmo- bile factory site Of Is acres permits exceptional advantages for the build ing expansion which has become i'm :. perative Tn vis of the companys greatly increased production and sales schedules. XXI

CLOSED CARS
 NOW IN VOGUE

Proof that the automobile fuyers of the country are leaning toward a majority preference for inclosed automobiles is seen in the ever growing demand for closed jobs reaching tk& Chevrolet Motor com pany the last few days. In fact the demand for closed jobs Is so great that indications tend to show that within a few years the total out put of all makes of closed cars will reach so per cent of the entire automobile production.
 According to authorities, the fao- tor that is largely responsible for the greatly increased use of this type of car is the production of high grade closed jobs made by companies like Chevrolet that can be sold at a low price Many people who heretofore would have prefer red a closed car have not been able to secure this type of vehicle be- cause of the high prices at which these cars had to be sold. In the old days the making of a closed car body was a long and expensive job. They were made of wood and 1t took about three months to make the body With the introduction of steel work, it is now possible to do this same work in much less time and consequently at much less cost One of the reasons why Chev- rolet is fast becoming one of the most popular cars in this section Is due it Is said. to the fact that they can offer a car possessing a high grade Fisher body at 8 very low price and are the only znanufac- turers of w-priced cars to do this.
 Chevrolet officials assert that the popularity of the closed car Is espe- cally noticeable in the south. Deal CTS are reporting that despite the almost constant warm weather, car purchasers are demanding closed jobs as a protection against rain. wind. dust and sudden cold spells which sometimes spring up in those localities.
 Figures show that during the last year more than 3s5.0oo closed cars were marketed which was 22 per cent of the entire years produc- ton. Indications are that this year this will reach at least 30 per cent of the total production.

Don't make tho mistake of taking 1t for granted that 1t makes little diff ference whether or not a cap is used on the tire valve and when cap Is lost use the tire without one. This idea Is entirely erroneous, says the United states Tire company, and mo- torists who do not use the valve cap can expect valve trouble.
 When the cap is not used there is every probability that sand and dirt will work down into the valve and ultimately produce a leak. While a tire remains inflated this dirt, in some cases, may do no harm. But when new imitation Is made. the pump drives the dirt down Into the valve and makes. an air-tight con nection almost impossible.

liza Keith, who sings Love Sends "a
Little Gift of Roses" with rare musical
Interpretation; Mr. Reynolds, sings
Kipling's son the Road to Mandalay,"
a good song wonderfully sung. Mr..
Roshig, the tenor with this company,
is also cornettist of unusual ability.
The Lacrosse Tribune says concern
ing this attraction: "The Ralph Dun
bar attractions are well known in La
Crosse and it is interesting to note
that Mr.. Reynolds was for ten years
associate manager and producer of all
Dunbar productions and has only re-
Gently launched himself as an inde-
pendent producer and if the Metropo-
Titan Quintette is a sample of the fu-
ture productions which he promises, a
Rex Reynolds company will always
be welcome in Lacrosse. The Rivoli
management deserve great credit for
securing this organization for mid
summer engagement"

THE RALL GAME

There have been very few exhibit
tons Of ball pulled off on the local dia-
nond that equaled the Viola Viroqua
game for the first six and a half inn
ings. Both teams were on their toes
and il was nip and tuck contest
both sides playing air tight ball.
Hastings for Viroqua and Big Ben
for Viola were heaving the classiest
kind Of ball. Big Ben connected with
an almighty drive in the second, but
Bunny Kuehn made a wonderful run
and catch In the center field that rob
bed him of three bases. Bunny in turn
put one into the tall grass in the
fourth, but the ball landed on a coat
in the outfeld and he only made two
bases. Then Benn frightened up and
struck out the next three men. The
merry go-round opened in Viroqua's
part Of the sixth inning when one hit
and three errors permitted us 10 run
two men across home plate. Then the
most regrettable incident Of the day
happened. Pitcher Sherrn Hastings
came TO bat, and was struck near the
temple by one Of Big Ben's quick
breaking ln-shoots. He went 70 the
ground like a shot, and the Mortified
crowd was certain that he had been in
stantly killed. He recovered conscious
ness in a few minutes and was taken
to the bench and then taken up town
where medical attention was secured.
Examination disclosed that the bone
in his skull was bent a little but not
fractured, and the next day he went
to Lacrosse for an X-ray. He Is
feeling pretty fair now and viii pro-
badly not be any the worse for the
accident, we are happy 70 say. Big
