Golden State Has
Three Cars Lined
Up for Speedway

Three California built motors will
be contestants in the biggest auto
mobiles race of the year when the
starter gives the 'go" signal for the
indianapolis 500-mile grind on Me-
mortal Day. And these motors will
be driven by three of the most noted
speed demons on the American
speedways.
Last year there was but one CAL
ifornia. built motor in the lndianap-
oils race, the Leach Special, driven
-by Ira Vail. and this car finished well
I'D among the prize winners. This
year. however, Frank Elliott will
drive the Leach Special, built by the
Leach Biltwell motor car company
of Los Angeles. and Jimmie Murphy.
Grand Prix winner, and Champion
Tommy Milton are expected to have
their new Leach motors re- for
the event.
All three Of the motors are of the
Leach 999 type, designed and built
by Harry A Miller, noted engineer
and vice president of the Leach Bilt-
well motor car company of Los
Angeles. Both Elliott and Milton
have had pheno- inal success with
their Leach motors. having clinched
the 1921 speed title with the same
motor. Elliott was consistent prize
winner last season with a good rec
ord. Murphy has finally turned to
the Leach motor for the 1ndianapo-
lis grind and will appear in all of the
big races with his new speed wagon.
The race motors. known as the
Leach and designed by Mr.. Miller
are almost identical 20 the motor

Easy to See When
Cylinders Need
Regrinding job

1T Is an easy matter for motorists
who watch the performances OF their
car to determine the time that cylin-
ders need regrinding," says Luke
Henderson Of the Arizona Machinery
Manufacturing company. ANY car
that does not run right, that uses an
excessive amount Of oil, lacks power
or pep, or smokes. needs overhauling
and regrinding.
"All cars should be pulled down and
reground at least every two years to
insure the continued efficient work
of their mechanisrns. II the cylinders
are found scored, out of round, or
with excessive clearance between the
cylinder and piston, they clearly need
regrinding.
"Cylinders finished by other meth
DDS than grinding when new are sub
ject to regrinding sooner than orig
inally ground motors.
With commercial cars or tractors
the same reasons hold true for re-
grinding as with pleasure cars with
the exception that the work should be
done at least once every year. Heavy
cars are generally worked constantly
to their full capacity, doing A COM
ulete days work every working day
and are required to perform tasks
which require every ounce OF power
they possess
foreground cylinders will say e
money for the motorist," declares Mr..
Henderson, and viii insure a longer
life to the car itself and greater re-
sale value.
"All high grade automobile engines
manufactured in this country as Wei
as in Europe have their cylinder
bores finished by grinding. Some or
tho American cars that might De
mentioned are:

wisely that many OF this wonderful

Its price-and here is where Pack

this is already true is evidenced by
the instant demand that has sprung
