L The New York Automobile Show. lust mast an
exceedingly critical nation placed an unmercifuI
Christendom. -
Chassis were studied; bodies, interiors and fem
oencles were noted; refinements critically exam
ined-even the most infinitesimal details were
weighed and discussed-pro and con.
The great surprise of the whole performance
came in the medium-priced class of motor cars.
during the slashing public examination, one car
seemed to be singled out for singular recognition.
And that car, we are proud to state, was the
klckenbacker Six. This great car seems to have
stood as one apart-So brisk was the demand-so
intense the interest!
The eyes of the entire country have been TO-
cused on the Rickenbacker Six since its announce
ment a year ago. But could anyone anticipate the
huge success with which it has met? Most as
suredly we could not.
For its success has swept beyond even our most
visionary calculations. To attract such a tremen-
dous audience and hold its sustained interest. as
we did during the New York Show, gives the
flckenbacker Six that very definite and final
mark OF genuine distinction.
A year ago we announced to the world a new
conception in motor design. This design, due to
our ingenious tandem flywheel principle, proved
to be absolutely free from all vibration at all
speeds! In this decidedly advanced feature, we
believe, Rickenbacker leads the field-the world.
Owners discovering the superiority of a motor
of this type became more discriminating in their
choice--more insistent on having a Rickenbacker
DIN. his we KNOW from the huge influx OF orders,
Americas hat is off to the hat-in-the-ring car.
And now the New Rickenbacker series is on dis
play at the show rooms of Rickenbacker dealers
throughout the country. We want you to visit the
show rooms of these dealers and look this excep-
tional Rickenbacker motor over.
Examine it carefully. Have a demonstration.
Drive the car yourself. Take the wheel and test
it at any speed.
Go as fast as you wish-or as slow as you wish.
Either way! We defy you to find a particle of
that exertmely detrimental Authorization!
The car has SO many refinements-too many to
enumerate here-but no detail has been over
looked. For example, the Rickenbacker is equip
ped with the internationally famous Bosch electric
lighting, starting and ignition system. This gives
you some idea of the high standard and quality
basis upon which this car is manufactured.
It's the easiest car in the world to drive. It's
lightning getaway astonishes veterans. Yet it
purrs along with the ease and silence of an cleo
trio.
Everything in the way of equipment; dignity in
design, and, above all, the most comfortable car
you ever rode in.

livery now-at our dealers everywhere.

CONSIDER MR.. EHMKE
One Day He Allows Yanks One Hit;
Next Time He's Batted tut.

Boston, Oct. 2O.-Baseball is a
mighty uncertain pastime. If you
have the least doubt abort it, glance
over the recent pitching performances
of Howard Ehmke Of the Boston Red
Sox.
Against the Philadelphia Athletes,
Ehmke pitched nO-hit game. His next
start was against the 'hard-hitting New
York Yankees. Whitley Witt, the
first man 20 face him, bounded to
Howard Shanks at third. Witt should
have been an easy out but Shnnks
played the ball badly and the gener-
Gus scorers recorded it as a hit. Dur
ing the rest of the game not Iank
player made anything that looked like
a base hit.
Umpires Connolly end Dinneen, who
worked the game. said if ever pitch
err deserved a no-bit game, EhInke did
in the New York contest. However,
the game went into the records as a
one-hit affair.
How different the next time Ehmke
faced the Yankees. Instead of get
ting one scratch hit in nine innings,
the Yankees made IA in six Innings,
IL of the IA hits coming in the sixth
inning, when New York made IL
runs.
Peculiarly enough, Ehmke seemed
to have plenty of stuff, as shown by
his six strikeouts in six innings,
When he wasn't whiting them, the
Yanks were denting the fences.

been drunk to the new champions OF

about the junior organization coming
into its own again, when little

of the American League club from

20 Almost Becomes Champ Without Having Dempsey Agar
League Plots Downfall
of Tanks TO Save West

American League need no longer fear
the rivalry of the Giants in New
York. But it does fear the soaring
of the Yanks. Colonel Rupert, bis
friendly rivals feel, should be able to
go his way in the future, thanks to
his recent profits. without being an
object of solicitude TO his organiza-
ton. On the other hand, they fear
that unless the West gets a better
grip on the situation some of them
may be sending out S. o. s. calls.
1t is conceded that Higgins has
chance to win a fourth successive
victory in the American League and
the showing OF his club in the world
series materially strengthened that
opinion. There was nothing in the
Yanks' play 10 indicate a probable
breakdown in any position of import
ance. If Higgins should happen to
get better work from a young pitcher
or two next season he would be in a
strong position for the next campaign.
InfieId Had the Edge.
The Yank infield certainly compared
favorably with the famed quarter
million dollar infield" Of the Giants.
Crippled Pip was as good as Kelly,
if not better. Ward was less snowy
than Frisch but quite as successful.
Scott played this world series as be
has past ones, while Bancroft did not
win so much praise for what he did.
Dugan was decidedly a better third
baseman than Groh. Behind the bat,
Schang was of far more value to the
Yanks this time than were Snyder
and Gowdy to the Giants. And even
if he should falter, Higgins has
Hoffman and Bengough.
The Yank outfield proved itself col
lectively better than that Of the Giants
as had been predicted.
Thus, by comparison, the American
League champions present a front
which the other teams Of that CIRCUIT
must recognize as strong and danger
GUS. 1t certainly will be no easy
task TO boost seven other clubs of the
league I'D to the point where they
will have a fighting chance with the
Yanks.
Miller Higgins has equalled the
record of Hugh Jennings for manag-
ing championship teams and he has
gone Jennings one better by manag-
ing a winning world series team. Hug

some who have axes TO grind. by
Others who are not expert in base
