TUCSON BOOKED

PHOENIX LANES

One of the liveliest scraps that has
yet been staged is that now going on
between the M. P. Barret company.
and the Oicott company, Phoenix and
Tucson Studebaker distributors. re-
spectively. The dissension which has
cropped up between the two organi-
cations was caused by an argument
as to which concern could sell the
most cars in the month of June
Barret published a challenge to the
Studebaker dealers of the state. and
the only reply forthcoming was from
Tucson. The price of losing the bat
tie consists of the opportunity of
cleaning a block of city street in the
winners city and furnishing a BAN
quet Barret has been casting about
endeavoring to find the dirtiest street
in town for the Tucson squad to
manicure, and the Nogales junction
crowd have picked out an ideal block
down in Little Mexico for Barret's
whtte-collared crew to scrub to a
beautiful whiteness.
Barrett is all optimism He has
made an exceptionally good start, and
furthermore he intends to keep it up.
I'VE can lick Tucson with our hands

Here is snapshot taken of the
remodeled plant of the Battery Ser
vice company, Prest-O-Lite dis
trlDutor for Arizona. Looks like
business, doesn't it?
Organized about two years ago to
market Prest-O-Lite products. the
growth of this concern has been
nothing short of wonderful. This
at a time too when business was
generally at standstill. The first
start of the company was in lit
tie place on South Third avenue, with
TWO men on the job. Now the force
numbers IA, and with the present
growth of business keeping up it will
be rapidly increased.
A. 5. Earnhart, commonly known
| as "Curley," because of his luxuriant
locks, heads the Battery Service
company. Earnhart is a thorough
electrical expert, having spent all his
life in that business and having held
some big positions. He can tell
what's in a battery by the way it
listens.
That Earnhart is keenly apprecia-
tive of the support given his institu-
ton by the public is evidenced by the
declaration he made yesterday. He
says: 1T has been our aim to serve
SAiO poDiiS IA a way lIldl NOuiu COHl-
mend our service. That it has been
well received by the public is a fact
that pleases us nightly. 1t tends to
make us get up and dust to render
even better service. This we are
doing, and We have we'll oiled,
smooth running plant that admits of
few mistakes If any. We are buy
ing new equipment, acquiring the
services of the most expert electri-
clans and battery men possible to
secure, and pricing our services to
the public so that no man win be
dissatisfied and feel that he has been
overcharged. We have installed a
question box at our door for sug-
gestions or complaints on the part of
the public, and we hope to get some
good from every expression put into
that box. The foundation for our
business is the satisfied customer,
and we are building that foundation
to the best of our ability"
L. J. Watson, well-known in Phoe-
nix and the salt River valley, is an
associate member of the firm and is
acting as service manager.

PARKER ROUTE N
GOOD CONDITION

Reports from Parker indicate that
the road conditions in that part of
the state are about all that could be
desired. The ferry is not handicapped
by the high water and has operated
every day for the past six years. The
report states that the Is miles of
state road east of Parker is being
kept in good condition and that the
road from Parker to Needles is also
in good repair.
Signs have been erected along the
Parker cutoff route and this fact, cou-
pied with the condition of the road
and the amount of travel going over
it, renders it very desirable route
for drivers to take to the coast.

for wheel resetting and rebuilding,
BODY repairing and building, frame

TRANSM|SS|ONS
TAKE LOTS Of
CAREFUL WORK

There are no less than 157 separate
and distinct operations in making the
transmission OF the modern motor
car before the parts are hardened,
says an article in the Chandler Bull
1etin, the monthly publication dis
tributed to owners OF Chandler cars
The most precise automatic mach
inery is used in the cutting OF gears.
No more painstaking workmanship
is expended on the Chandler car. it
is pointed out. than in the machining
OF the various parts that form the
transmission and the differential.
The first operation on all gears is
a process of annealing in the heat
treating department to relieve the
various forging strains.
After annealing the gear forgings
are turned and formed on automatic
machines which produce in many in
stances as many as four parts at one
time and do as many as six opera
tions on each piece while 1t is still
in the machine
Subsequent machining consists of
roughing on hobbing machines which
form the teeth. This Is followed by
chamfering. Gear shapers then fin
ish the teeth Of two gears at one
time with slowly revolving cutter
which moves rapidly up and down
over the surface of the teeth. each
gear having two finishing cuts to in
sure accuracy. BY this method the
most accurately cut gears are pro-
duced in the least possible amount
of time.
The differential side gears and
pinions, being bevel gears, must be
machined by different methods and
still other methods are required for
the cutting of the rear axle drive
gears.
In finish cutting the teeth Of the
spiral cut bevel driving gears, intri-
cate automatic machines Of the fin
est accuracy are used, making four
separate and distinct movements for
each cut.

"A FISHING EXPERIENCE

Fisherman in Florida is reported te
have caught an 1S-pound black bass
We saw old Doc. j. L. L. McCullers
land one in Panther Branch pond in
Wake county that weighed nine
pounds. He caught six or seven large
ones with live minnows, and the fellow
with him landed two small bass. AS
the doc. WOULD haul 4p his catch, he
would stand'up iEthe boat and holler
"Whoopee" and then aurn around and
remark to the newspaper man that
you've got to learn to tell the truth
before you kin ketch 'em, son." He
repeated that line half a dozen times
during one warm July day when the
only water the pair had to drink was
brought from his home in a jug and
kept in the boat. 1t was hot water,
too.
Another stunt that DR.. McCullers
pulled has been related by this wit
ness on several occasions, but nobody
has seemed to believe it. Nevertheless
it is true.
We rowed the boat to the head Of
the pond and proceeded to muddy the
waters. Literally rocking the boat in
the muddy waters, we had the min
nows jumping for their lives, and in
few minutes hundred or more had
jumped into the boat. They were
caught and saved for bait.
1t was big day all right, but since
the amateur was unused to rolling his
britches up above his knees, going
barefooted and courting the direct rays.
Of the sun, he suffered agonies for
several days thereafter.
