Extra Inning at Columbus

The X. c. Blues edged out in front
Sunday by defeating the Senators at
Columbus in ten innings, while the
neville Indians were walloping the
Saints here to 6,
On Saturday the Tr1besmen whipped
the Mortimer, 5 to 0. in a game in
which Fftzsimmons allowed only four
hits.
This is the final week of the sched-
ule and 1t looks like a whirlwind fln-
ish. The Saints play three more
games here. including today's battle,
and then go to Louisille for six. The
Blues continue at Columbus and then
finish at Toledo.

Realizing the tremendous economic
loss caused by rapid ens{ne deprccsa-

underlying reasons why so few mo

cars.

car owners themselves have failed 20
give their cars the attention required
In order TO rsalizo tho greater life

There are two important steps in

recommended by automotivc ensi-

!. Clean tho crank case thoroly
every 500 TO 1000 miles and when
changing from ono brand OF motor

2. Flush the crank case only with
