WILL TEST CONCRETE
FOR ROAD SURFACINC

Washington, June 16.-To throw
more light, on the durability Of con-
crete a wear test is to be made with
the conditions approximating those
actually found on the road. This
test will include about IS sections of
concrete wearing surface, each sec
ton being of a different quality of
concrete. ~ T..
On this runway will be operated a
specially constructed car with two
truck wheels equipped with solid rub
Der tires and loaded to represent a
truck. The car awill9be guided by
small railroad rafI to- hold it in posi-
ton, the power '''being applied by
means of an electric motor t to the
rear wheel. This apparatus viii be
operated around. the circular run
way at speed of probably TO- miles
an hour. The test will involve the
use of truck wheels equipped with
different kinds of tires and will in
clude the use of non-skid chains. A
steel-tired wheel will probably also
be used to get the effect of an accel-
Grated wear test.
The object of this experiment is
to determine the relative wear of the
different concrete sections when sub
jected to traffic equipped with differ
ent types Of wheel, also to furnish
comparison and laboratory tests
This test will be in operation contin.
uously beginning some time in June.

MINNEAPOLIS BOUT IS
EASY FOR l. {. CURTIS

L. C. Curtis of this city success
fully met George Dalrymple at Mic
olett park, Minneapolis, Thursday
evening, winning the match in eight
minutes and 35 seconds. In the
semi-windup, Ralph Parcaut and
Chris Jordan went 40 minutes to a
draw,
In the headline match, Ed "Strang-
Ter" Lewis won over John Freberg
of Minneapolis, taking the first and
third falls. Freberg won the sec
ond fall in 10 minutes and 5 seconds,
and gained the distinction of being
one of the very few wrestlers in the
game to have pinned the champions
shoulders since he won the title.
Curtis is scheduled to meet Ralph
Parcaut for the third time at Web
ster City, Iowa, on July 4th. This
match promises to be an exception
ally good one since Parcaut now
holds one victory over the Bemidji
wrestler, the second match resulting
in a draw with one fall for each in
the two-hour limit.
