REQ ENGINEER
TELLS WHY CARS
BALLOON TIRED

After a period of six months dur
ing which genuine balloon tires
have been selective equipment on
REQ passenger cars at an addition
al cost, the REQ Motor Car Com
pany has now announced that the
balloons will be standard equip
ment on passenger cars in its line
at no extra charge. List prices on
all models remain unchanged.
Z" Before we offered genuine bal
looms as selective equipment, = says
III. T. Thomas, vice president and
chief engineer of the REQ Motor
Car Company, "tests on factory
owned ears and in our laboratories
had convinced us that these tires,
as applied to REQ, were right from
standpoints Of economy, safety and
comfort.
"We did not wish to press the
public into accepting this equip
ment until it was generally known
NOT just among men IN the IN
dustry that balloon tires were the
next logical step in automobile pro-
gress, however, and for this reason
we left the choice between high
pressure and low pressure tires to
the buyers. From now on every
REQ passenger model coming Off the
line will wear balloon tires.
"Reo has cooperated with tire
manufacturers by adopting q stan,
dard size as proposed by one OF
the leading manufacturers. Tins
size, $50 tires on 20 inch wheels, IS
standard, not III the sense that 1t
is one Of the 'twenty-three stan
dards which have been the night
mare Of the industry during the
winter and spring, but in that IT ls
one of the five sizes recommended
by the engineers who perfected
genuine balloon tires for motor car
use.
"The size to be selected from
these five actual standards is de-
termined by the weight of the car,
6.2O being the one adapted TO leo
models both open and closed.

GREB AND NORFOLK MAY FIGHT
IN PITTSBURGH RING.

PITTSBURGH, Pa, May 2.-Wlth
Harry Greb and Kid Norfolk under
suspension in Boston for period OF
SIX months, there is possibility that
lcc.. fans may yet see this par in act
lou again. johnny McGaryey match
maker at Motor Square Garden bad
the bout under consideration the other
day, but gave it up when ne learned
that the fighters had signed for re-
turn bout in Boston Their suspension
in Boston automatically prevents the
return bout in that city and it is under
stood that McGarvey has agaia cast
his eye in the direction Of this boat.
The Garfield landlord, when sean,
said he would be willing to fight Nor
folk at Motor Square Garden and that
if the garden promoters can't see their
way clear for the bout, then the Iron
City Club may put it on at Forbes Field
some Saturday afternoon, in the near
future. Greb also said that Newark
promoters want the bout, but he feels
that it would go better in Pittsburgh
now that they are suspended in Bos'
ton.
The fans here have not forgotten the
time Norfolk had Greb on the floor at
Forbes Field and the spectacular bat
tie they staged in Boston the other
night added interest to the affair. If a
return bout is put on in Motor Square
Garden, the largest gate ever taken in
at the East End arena will result, it is
asserted, and it is believed McGarvey
will do his best to land the match.

One of the most amusing things
I encountered at several places was
the preconceived picture OF what
