WHO'S THIS FELLOW MARS?
Radio Operators Expected to Balk at Onlcr to Keep Still So We Can Hear From Planet.

Washington, Aug. 1.-Indications are that government radio experts in
 charge of the various executive depart
 ments will find themselves in divided
 schools on the question of having
 their operators standby and listen in
 for messages from Mars when that
 planet approaches nearest the earth.
 Prof. David Todd, formerly head as- tronomer of Amherst, believes that wireless operators on Mars may try to communicate with the earth and is seeking to have all sending stations of government and commercial control remain silent for brief intervals as the visiting planet approaches. He has requested the state department to seek cooperation from Latin-Ameri- san and European governments, but has found officials there skeptical while the navy department has declin- ed to silence it's stations as requested by MT. Todd and the commerce de- partment has decided to issue no in- to commercial stations, the was department, however, has ordered it's operators to keep quiet few min utes each day and prepare to inter- cert anything in the air which in their opinion might be coming from Mars

Coolidge Home Near
 Trouble in Storm

Plymouth. Vt, Aug, 1.--Lightning struck about the presidents home here during the severe storm late yesterday afternoon and night, one bolt putting out of commission the telegraph apparatus in the temporary business office in the general store. The store Is situated about fifty yards from where the president and his family are staying in the home of his father. John Coolidge. Electrical workers were kept busy several hours repairing the damage but no material injury was done by the bolt.
 President Coolidge and his family apparently were not disturbed. No wires go into the Coolidge home, and the real effect of the bolt was not felt there.

Wife Beats Her
Rival Up; Out
On Bail Today

LONG ZEACH, May l7.-Mrs.
Leila Donaldson, wife of local real
estate salesman, was at liberty on
$50 bond today after, police say, she
administered severe beating to
Miss Elizabeth Bradfield, daughter
of her husband s employer.
The affair occurred yesterday af-
ternoon, after, the investigation
showed, Donaldson and Miss Brad
field had professed their love for
each other before Mrs. Donaldson.
Going to the real estate office,
Mrs. Donaldson asked Miss Brad
field to accompany her home. There,
the girl told police, Mrs. Donaldson
attacked her with a strap and beat
her into unconsciousness. Then she
dragged her into bathroom and
locked the door.
"You II find girl out at my
house who got what s coming to
her. Mrs. Donaldson is alleged to
have declared, as she tossed the key
into the door of the Bradfield of
fices some time later.

PARTY RETURNS
FROM TRIP BY
CAR TO MEXICO
First Motor Jaunt From
u. S. Border to
Mexico City

The return to the United States
of the g Hawlcy Expedition, " which
passed through San Francisco and
Oakland several week ago enroute
70 Mexico City via motor car, was
announced in Il wire received from
Willard p. IEawley, head of the
expedition, from Laredo, Texas, to,
r. f. Thompson, geenral manager
of the Howard Automobile Com
panv, western Buick distributors.
The party's return to "the
states marks the first successful
round trip ever made between the
border. of the United States and
Mexico City by automobile, and
marks also the close of an epochal
chapter iii motor car ''stunt' his
tory.
Mexico City and Return was
.embhzoned in big letters, in both
4he. English and Spanish languages,
On The big 1924 Buick six cylinder
touring car that headed the party.
Hawley, who is well known through
cut the west as general manager of
the Hawlev paper interests i'll the
Pacific Northwest, drove the car.
A second and smaller car accom-
panied the party.
The last wire, received from the
Texas city, was brief in stating
merely that the party had completed
the trip safely, and went into great :
length praising the Bucks perfor-
nance dn the run.
The rubber equipment was a Pa
cific coast product, manufactured
by an Oregon tire factory, and stood
up wonderfully well.
1t is well known that the greater
part of the journey, after leaving
the border of the United Estates,
was through trackless wastes of des-
ert sand, and rocky and ungraded
mountain roads.
Inasmuch as the Hawley party
was prepared to take hundreds of
photographs, the records of their
trip viii undoubtedly prove of great
interest throughout the automobile
world

Oakland Motor Car company, which
has fostered the idea of small cars
with high speed motors since 1915.
ga comparison of the new car
( that Ira Vail is to drive 'in the big
Indianapolis race this month with
the current model of the Oakland
shows many of the principles iden-
tical.
CAT first glance Ira Vail s car
bears family resemblance to the
Oakland sport model. Both are fin
ished in the Oakland True Blue
Duco paint which has made such q
hit the country over. Both cars
are equipped with four wheel
brakes for safety and positive con7
troll at all speeds.
Many Other Points
+ ts.While these two features are
apparent at a glance, there are
many more important points In con-
structioIf that are parallel. Oakland
has always advocated the small
bore long stroke motor, and until
very recently it had the smallest
cubic displacement six cylinder mo
tor used in standard construction.
"a stock model coupe Oakland
still holds the record to San Diego
from Los Angeles, reeling off this
stretch in hours and so minutes.
Smaller motors give. equal pow
er and speed and increased econo1
my. This accounts for the fact
modern racing cars can go $50
miles without stop at the pits for
fuel. It also made possible the four
successive sweeping economy run
victories of the Oakland in the
Yosemite runs and The San Diego
Ell Centre events.
"Further inspection shows that
both the racer of today and the
Oakland employ force feed lubrica-
tion through hollow crankshatt,
insuring positive oiling at all speed
and under all conditions.
"Tgnition is vital essential and
the Oakland employs the well
known Remy system and Remy IS
also used on Ira Wallis new mount.
Pump to force water circulation is
also used on both the Oakland and
racing ears.

HEAR |. A. EXPERT
ON LINCOLN CARS

Last evening the statesmen and

local branch to hear Mr.. Sway4e,
who is in charge of the Lincoln Te-
partment, Los Angeles, for the Ford

of his subject and held the attep-
tion of the meeting for more than
two hours. He gave the local sales
men information pertaining to all
parts of the car that viii aid them
greatly in their work.
The statement that attracted par
ticular attention was to the effect
that the Ford Motor Conpanyis de
termined that the Lincoln ear shall
always be the best in America.
The Ford Motor Company has re-
Gently inaugurated q new plan in
